The Grapes of Wrath was a very good movie.

Henry Fonda is the image presented here; & was the character Tom Joad. I cannot think of anything that seems so fitting right now in this period of Authoritarian Takeovers (Plural). Thank you for your efforts.

Bravo! For those who may not know; Joad was t hero in “The Grapes Of Wrath”, by John Steinbeck.T words this man Posted are from that Novel. I only saw the full movie about 2 months ago; had seen parts before. It is an Amazing Story of the Working Class Farm Workers abused in The Great Depression.

Spot on and rarely said in such a clear and concise manner. I have been watching this for years, I do not own a television and subscribe to nothing except the local paper. I follow BBC & Canadian news. I work with the local DNC. Once one is untethered from the system it's shocking from the outside.

Remember that new study? Yeah we been knowing. 96% of BLM protests were peaceful; same for 99% of the pro-Palestine protests… And while I saw lots of reports on the study, I can’t say the same for the bigger news: That Trump scraped the study from all government websites — like it never existed!

If this analysis helped you understand why so many Americans remain passive while their rights disappear,if it clarified the sophisticated machinery keeping our neighbors distracted while fascism consolidates,please consider becoming a paid subscriber to Tom Joad's Voice of the Resistance.

Did you ever read Amusing Ourselves to Death? Written in the 80s and focused on television, but even more relevant in the internet age. It’s a very similar argument. That Americans were architects of the destruction of our country. Worth your time.

This is spot on. We have consumed their bullshittery that put us here. I have been saying that Americans are too self-absorbed to do anything like a National Strike, and this substack explains why.

Thank you Tom 🙏🙏💙💙 Very Appreciated 🙌

“Trump understood this during his first presidency: Americans would tolerate almost anything,children separated from parents at the border,journalists threatened with violence, elections contested through lies,as long as their Amazon deliveries arrived and their Netflix streamed without buffering”.

We're genetically incapable of prioritizing our problems.

been hooting the same since I got out of army....

I wondered years ago why dystopia entertainment was so popular. To me, it was clearly a very disturbing genre of film and television. From The Walking Dead to The Hunger Games to I Am Legend to The Road to all of the b-movies and series - what were people getting out of it? Apparently, familiarity.

🚨 1,200 immigrants held at ‘Alligator Alcatraz’… ARE NOW MISSING! Family members can’t find them and their names disappeared from ICE's online database And this is why I always referred to them as “disappeared” and not “detained”. trumpfile.org/ice-loses-mo...

Hi Tom,Jackie, followed those I wasn't already following and reposted. 💙🌊☀️

Excellent new starter pack! I’m thankful that grifter BTC isn’t included!

bsky.app/profile/theo... Read the whole article. It's definitely worth your time and attention. 💙🇺🇸💙

WHERE is the Dem's THINK TANK? The party is being played like a Stradivarius violin. If Dems are going to be the party of minorities, LGBTQ+, women, immigrants & the poor, y'all had better figure out how to stop seeing those groups as your "shame". Repubs use it to shut Dems down over & over again.

Oh yes…that “kid drama” is a whopper!!😂

Most of us Democrats can actually hold two thoughts at once. I guess it's our superpower. 😎

Great new Starter Pack!!

It’s a very serious day for the resistance. This new Ex Order, taken in the light of the 3 other examples in the article attached, means it’s time to think about the safety of democracy lovers. Read it. Here are new resisters who will qualify. go.bsky.app/KmtPvdu

Tom….. I’ve missed you Thank you for the repost… Hope all is well💜💜💜🙏🏼

All except grifter BTC.

It was all warned about by Dems & the few in the media not bought by the 1% & their GOP enablers. This really isn’t that complicated. Disinformation has become mainstream over 30+ yrs & US voters remain disconnected & perpetually making bad decisions in Federal & State elections. 🛑 voting for GOP!

Great Starter Pack!!

This is a great Starter Pack!!

go.bsky.app/84ZK78y When AOC and Sanders hold rally’s in Red states they are effective in messaging. It is wonderful how they both mesh. The democrats need to stop the madness, by stopping the budget from passing. But leaders are weak. Follow and call congress urging them to stop 47.

Great new Starter Pack!!
