The richest man in the world—who has now installed unqualified loyalists throughout the US government—is getting much of his information from far-right sources who present a world in which “Western Civilization” is in an existential struggle against Black and brown invaders.

Somehow JDI has struggled to find land to put a new parking lot, and are now asking to have a park re-zoned across the street, and use it for "whatever" down the line. It seems like neither the public nor council are buying it anymore.

It's taken this long for someone to speak up?

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Community is the antidote to despair. Happy to host! 🌹
