I need a John wick movie of health insurance ceos getting forcibly retired

I hope people learn the names of all of these insurance company CEOs and engage in very peaceful letter writing campaigns so that they stop ruthlessly murdering thousands of innocent Americans by denying coverage. Healthcare is a human right. We need universal healthcare now.

More red scare fearmongering about "The Socialists" from our ruling class of billionaires. To draw a comparison between #Project2025 (which is cartoonishly evil) and the #DemocraticSocialistsOfAmerica is frankly offensive. Why must the Dems always blame others? Look @ yourselves, Dems!

The Germans are on-point, as ever.

Another exhibit to add to the pile of evidence that Henry Ford was a massive piece of shit. (link to GIF) #ford #fordmotorcompany #industrialworkersoftheworld #iww #henryford

"Arabs are a bunch of terrorists. I learned everything about them I needed to after 9/11" Shut the fuck up, bigot (I actually saw that statement as a bumper sticker on a pickup truck once 😡)

"Love thy neighbor, but FUCK YOU if you're poor!" Don't @ me. This is not an attack on Christianity. This is an attack on "CHINOs" - Christians In Name Only

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #4,675,946!

Yesterday, tens of thousands of workers unionized with WFSE (Washington Federation of State Employees) staged a walkout demonstration across the whole state of Washington. Read all about it in The STAND (link below), a publication of the Washington State Labor Council. #giftarticle

President Biden proposes three reforms of the Supreme Court: 1, a Constitutional amendment specifying that presidents are not immune from prosecution for crimes committed in office; 2, an 18-year term limit for justices; and 3, a binding code of ethics for justices. wapo.st/4c9ertE

Bringing armed people into emotionally fraught environments to confront peaceful protesters is dangerous and leads to injury and death. It's why riots don't tend to actually kick off until the cops show up.

The grim history of using troops against student protesters

#liar #ceasefirenow My full response to this #bullshit can be found on Facebook [my primary posting destination (I'm trying to reach the so-called "normies" who largely don't use Bluesky or Shitter)]. You do not need to be signed in with an account to view: www.facebook.com/share/6vD1By...

Turns out EU cops hate encryption too. This quoted bit is obvious bullshit. Historically nearly everything communication was beyond the reach of law enforcement. Cops have so much more visibility into our everyday lives today than at any time in history. www.europol.europa.eu/media-press/...

Can’t stress how amazing this feed of all gift links/gift articles shared on Bluesky is. It’s largely the best of the stuff in traditional papers without the bullshit and fluff, shared by people who liked it enough to pay for it. bsky.app/profile/did:...

The "consumer welfare" interpretation of antitrust law is intellectually bankrupt #antitrust #monopolies #corydoctorow

Antitrust is a political cause, not an economic one

There needs to be a reset between media companies and media consumers. Our fraught relationship needs to change.

There is no equality for working women in any country on this planet! We can do better than this, y’all!

Elon Musk wanted OpenAI to “attach to Tesla as its cash cow”, but yet he is accusing them of basically “selling out” by creating a for-profit arm. (OpenAI was first started as a nonprofit organization) You’re such a hypocrite, Elon!

Anti-abortion strategists have a secret weapon for their goal of a federal abortion ban called the Comstock laws and they don't want us to know about it. www.facebook.com/share/zcwjYq...

French Senate backs enshrining right to abortion in constitution:

Don't spend it all at once, folks!

I just came across this (I am a cisgender male). In light of reading this, I have added Transgender Day of Remembrance to my phone’s calendar (November 20) and I am updating all my socials with my pronouns. I encourage all cis people reading this to do the same.

Florida is busy breaking up unions, except for law enforcement unions, of course.

Another story of a woman forced to continue a life-threatening pregnancy. 😡 🖕you Tennessee! Shameful, absolutely shameful You can either be pro-life (anti-woman) or pro-choice (pro-woman). THOSE are the real sides of the abortion debate!

If you want a podcast that tracks the fast-changing world of AI, you can’t do better than “AI Inside”, hosted by @jasonhowell.bsky.social and @jeffjarvis.bsky.social

Union busters would say that, wouldn’t they?

This is *thrilling* news for somebody who has low-vision or otherwise depends on TTS software. I have good vision and yet I use TTS for *all* of my reading. Thus far, TTS has made great strides, but it still sounds *terrible* compared to a human narrator. #accessibility #accessibletechbenefitsall

To crawl, or not to crawl, that is the question. “The tradeoff is fairly straightforward: if Google can crawl your page, it can index it and show it in search results.”

If you haven't learned about the life of Aaron Swartz, *what are you doing?* Everybody needs to know this story

Disturbing, I know. But there is a certain group of Congressmen who are *shameless* and refuse to contribute to gun control legislation when we see massacre after massacre in the news, so (unfortunately) I think it is needed.
