A purveyor of fine, leftist wokery

“Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.”
-Kahlil Gibran

Never stop resisting the schemes of those with too much while so many have too little.

"rich dipshit owner doesn't understand the industry he's bought into and clumsily destroys what made it good" feels less like a narrative unique to the washington post and more like the music that's been playing in the background of all our lives for at least 40 years

This country’s involvement in Latin America has always been bleak and disgusting. The amount of agony we’ve unleashed on central and South America while setting up, arming, and funding dictators who are sympathetic to our corporate interests is depressing.

Nothing new under the sun unfortunately

This is egregiously disgusting…

They removed MLK day and Juneteenth and added the emperor’s birthday instead.

The last line of today’s Poem of the Day made me genuinely tear up 🥹

“Tallying up all my T, & all my bois who didn’t
get to be boys. Heaven sent. Heaven’s back door,
roping me up through the vent.”

Would love to see someone from the moderate, Majority Dem faction really address and wrestle with the political effects of what Labour has been up to.

The real estate part is stunning really.

How did we let these people turn our housing into a toy to use and abuse? Even after they brought our world to a global recession over the same issue in 2008?

I’m still struggling with the fact that ICE “brown shirts” went to a taco shop and thought they would get served.

F that!

Men, in general, collectively fucked up on a colossal level last election

And we all have to pay the cost of it collectively. The only exception will be the corporations who *will* get bailed out in the coming years from the fall out of all this chaos and all the fruit/pain that it will bear.

As @rbreich.bsky.social notes billionaires and their families own X, Paramount, CBS, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, the Washington Post, Amazon, MGM, Fox News, the Wall Street Journal and New York Post, and could soon own Warner Bros and CNN

And they are all Trump supporters

"Liberal media" indeed

The clearer it becomes that our institutions/the wealthy class in our society are filled with abusers/enablers the clearer it should become that we need to tear down and rebuild.

It just eats away at me knowing that after everything, Maxwell gets to get a publicly funded vacation in a resort instead of an actual punishment…

The fact that the facility exists for the pleasure of the wealthy who mess up and get caught egregiously is sickening by itself.

Corporate centrists helped usher in Trump by defending and setting up a status quo that doesn’t work for most Americans…

And they will continue to let down everyone but their donors until we stop entrusting them with power.

How much they’re spending and fear mongering is a testament to how scared they are of an actual opposition party in the US

We all deserve better than the corporate medicine we are forced to swallow by the dnc

I can think of no better way someone could celebrate Dick Cheney’s last day on Earth than casting a vote for a Muslim socialist.

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it).

But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

“I dont wanna shut the government down”… ”but anyway we could fire everyone and cut programs”… “but its them doing it not us” … “and it’s not a threat I’m just thinking out loud”… “and its all fraud, waste, and abuse anyway”

How does anyone fall for this absolute buffoon?
