Coincidences In my 25 years of working in tech, I've observed that the none of my coworkers were groypers or 4chan refugees. It's an unfortunate coincidence that 2/6 of Musk's young tech people happen to be advocates of white supremacy. So weird. Who can explain it? www.cnbc.com/2025/02/07/s...

Urban.org gets 1/3 of its funding from the federal government. What's one way to end racism? Stop collecting data on it. apps.urban.org/features/wea...

Meanwhile, in Mexico, immigrants waiting on asylum had their appointments cancelled today.

Towards the end of the last, Trump, "Remain in Mexico" program. Are you against human exploitation, or not? www.hrw.org/news/2021/03...

I'm not one to stick on these things, but imagine if Harris had taken the oath of office and not sworn on the Bible. The right-wing-media-bubble would be having a complete melt-down. Although, if he is the Anti-Christ, like many devout Christians believe, I mean... it would explain it.

After Trump proposed a TikTok ban in 2020, billionaire TikTok investor Jeff Yass gave millions to anti-Biden campaigns. Trump later announced his support for a deal in which U.S. firms would buy stakes in ByteDance, with Yass’ partner among the proposed members of a new board. (Published 2022)

So you say you want deregulation to help those poor, repressed billionaires? Perhaps you didn't learn about the period before the EPA, before pollution regulation, when "markets were free?" Maybe you weren't taught the so-called, "anti-American," parts of history. www.desmog.com/2024/11/12/r...

Coincidences The private prison company, Geo Group, donated $1 million to the Trump campaign. Coincidentally, the lobbyist that formerly worked for them, Pam Bondi, was chosen to be the candidate for Attorney General. So weird. Who can explain it? theintercept.com/2024/11/22/t...

Coincidences Justin Sun puts $30 million into Trump's World Liberty crypto, (worth $20 million before that). Coincidentally, Sun is under investigation by the SEC, a case likely to be dropped with a new, Trump appointed, SEC chair. So weird. Who can explain it? cointelegraph.com/news/justin-...

Coincidences John Phelan donates over $1 million to Trump and the Republicans and coincidentally is chosen as the Secretary of the Navy, with no prior military or government experience. Making the military great again! So weird. Who can explain it? www.military.com/daily-news/2...

Coincidences So many coincidences these days, since Trump was elected. Like, Elon spent $250 million dollars on the Trump campaign and coincidentally, Trump appoints a SpaceX guy to head NASA, who will oversee NASA contracts. So weird. Who can explain it? www.newsweek.com/first-billio...

I don't know any trans people, as far as I know. The Right seems to be preoccupied with them. I'm not qualified to judge. People have the right to live their own lives. I agree with 2016 Trump. It's not a problem or a preoccupation for me. I will stand up against discrimination, though.
