We can trace the current Republican law-breaking to Nixon. When we didn’t put Nixon in jail, it sent the message that lawbreaking is accepted as long as a Republican is president. The Republicans involved in Iran-Contra got off scot free. We haven’t even bothered investigating Bush Jr’s torture.

I don’t care if crime is popular with 32.8% of Americas. They still shouldn’t get to overthrow our society. I’m not a career politician. I haven’t resigned myself to this injustice. I believe we can still have laws. My campaign makes the case that society is worth defending:

America deserves to be ruled by laws. That will require standing up to the criminal conspiracy that is the modern Republican Party. Including its representatives on the Supreme Court. But it also means standing up to a Democratic Party that fears enforcing laws might cost them votes & donations.

It's not that we can't afford for human rights and welfare like decent healthcare, it's that we can't get people to pay sufficient tax to do so. We saw exactly this same pattern of increasing populism with increasing inequality long before there was an Internet, in the late 1800s through WWI.

TIL that if you put `-ai` after a Google or DuckDuckGo search (maybe others, I only tried those two), you will not get the AI assistant-generated content at the top. Content which always looks plausible, but is often dead wrong. Example: continuous delivery obstacles -ai Try it!

The conclusion I’m coming to, is that what matters is how you build your empire, not what your empire ends up as. I say this as a beginner in intentional empire building. Most times I run away from this crap. But not today. Today I fight for my way.
