again we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are his net worth is $253.2 billion. so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire and then do it again tomorrow and again the day after that and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months

Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power. They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

This is how wicked people think

Everyone dumb.

ICE Agent Scores Easy Win By Deporting Own Family https://theonion.com/ice-agent-scores-easy-win-by-deporting-own-family/

Why would citizens of Los Angeles trust the LAPD at all? They’re notorious for killing minorities and having cop street gangs.

“orbital data centers” is actually the dumbest goddam thing ive ever heard, if you actually give this shit any credence you should lose power of attorney

Whose idea was it to start having medical offices ask you to check in via their online platform A WEEK EARLY. This is not a plane ticket or a hotel room. What kind of unhelpful nonsense is this?!

On top of all the utterly horrifying shit, rich people appear to be just barely literate, which explains a few things

Bucks County Treasurer Reminds Owners to License Their Dogs | “Licensing your dog isn’t just a legal requirement – it’s a simple step that can make all the difference when a pet goes missing,” said Mark Moffa.

Groundhog Harassed By Dipshits In Stupid Hats

You can't look at AOC from Nancy's perspective and say you know better what modern Dems need. This was solely a cya move. 100%. And this includes Schumer. You're being sold a bill of bad goods from bad actors protecting themselves and telling you it's their only option.

What side is this guy on?

Republicans seriously want to terrorize this kid for being bad press for the regime

Sight in San Francisco (from a friend)

You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs) Good tech. Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales) Bad tech.

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people. But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

We will not free ourselves from fascism without taxing billionaires out of existence.

White supremacy is when an incompetent 23-year-old white boy can fabricate a story about Somalis and get personal praise from POTUS—but two seasoned award winning Black journalists with decades of unassailable reporting behind them get arrested for reporting on a protest with facts & receipts.

The Republicans will kill you, and the Democrats will let you die. An explainer on enablers from last year -- and before: sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/ten-articl...

Chat, is it good when an administration is arresting notable dissenters on trumped up charges?

Anyone who gives a dime to the Democratic Party right now is a fucking chump.

That's exactly what this is. We're unrepresented. We're on our own. We have to vote all these slugs out and take back our country.

And the leader of the opposition party agreeing to continue funding this attack on Americans with our hard earned tax money has to be up there as well.

NEW: Special elections in the razor-thin Democratic majority-Houses in Maine and Pennsylvania. Billions of dollars in funding for school. A congressional primary. There are plenty of important elections right around corner, in FEBRUARY. So i put together my monthly guide of elections to watch:

This is what resistance looks like: neighbors helping neighbors.

Note the passive voice here. They kept saying their agents would be endangered. But no protestor has taken a shot at an agent. They also told those agents that they would be supported no matter what they did, had absolute immunity. The Trump admin is responsible for the bloodshed that followed.

Three reporters! It took three reporters to land this huge story! Well, three people roughly in the shape of reporters. But three!

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him. “When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

I heard someone say it was “extreme” to demand the names of the ICE agents who murdered Alex Pretti. No. Demanding government disclosure of the names of government agents when they kill Americans is moderate. Wanting to read the names off the plaque at a mass grave would be, perhaps, extreme.

I don’t think we should make concessions to the Masked Murderers Guild of America. I don’t think we should compromise so the Masked Murderers Guild of America stops using kidnapped kids from schools as bait. I thought this was already illegal. The Masked Murderers Guild of America should not exist.

IF ... the evangelicals hate it... get two

Imagine debasing yourself by saying dumb shit like this

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

Do not say anything here you don't want read back to you in court.

"in most cases, these videos appear to have been filmed secretly - using Meta smart glasses." Argh for the love of god BAN. THE. PERVERT GLASSES.

Do it. I beg you. This madness ends a lot faster if billionaires lose money.

It's a snitch app
