We tried to warm people what would happen when jails were privatized… but they wouldn’t listen.

Imagine if 2 out of 3 houses canceled their internet subscriptions and shared with their neighbours.

Real change isn’t about tearing things down — it’s about making the old way unnecessary. The next economy won’t be owned. It’ll be shared.

This seems fairly important…

Surprise, surprise, surprise.

80% of my feed today is about Homan. This is why Social Media is an echo chamber. It doesn’t change minds, it’s validates them.

The rich get richer at everyone else’s expense. Again. Neoliberalism.

The first casualty of war isn’t truth — it’s curiosity. Once they convince you who to hate, the rest is easy. Who told you what you believe?

Amen!🙏

We’ll all the old crustaceans 🦞 can tutor them. They make me 🤢, staying in office for 40 years accumulating their wealth on our time! There needs to be age and term limits, they’re just too damn comfortable to be bothered with we the people! I say that being 71 myself! Retire ffs Grassley 92 WTAF 😱

United we stand! Divided we fall! I left you a political joke too! I’m dead serious about democracy but I like humor and they give us so much to laugh at, if only they weren’t so dangerous! Stronger Together! 😊🤞🏻🥰😇👺👊👊👊

We MUST address racism frontally. No more safe words so white fragility isn’t offended. This is a result of putting bandaids on what may end up being mortal wounds. Racial sins MUST be spoken first, then healed thru action.

This ✔️ I’m not anti video games. I’m anti violence.

Corrupt politicians, media and influences want us to believe immigrations causes grocery price increases. Truth is simpler: monopolies, neoliberalism, corruption. In other words, Capitalism 1.0. Time for a new model.

21° degrees. Sleet. Snow. The walk does not stop. The Monks are still moving forward, from Raleigh, NC, on their route to Washington, DC. This is what commitment looks like. The walk must continue — even when the road is hard. Peace isn’t passive — it’s walked. #WalkForPeace ##DefendersOfDemocracy

Bang! Bang! And Jack Smith is removed from the Media cycle, just like that. Amazing.

Given the bending of the knee we’ve seen on the part of our elite, we are not that different than other failing democracies.

Fun fact for you ammosexual gun rightsers: The minute “gubmint” decided you can legitimately be killed for having a weapon, you lost your “2nd amendment” rights. It’s gone. Weird how all that NRA hype & fear mongering about Dems just petered out on a whimper when tyranny actually showed up.

There is also the issue of the decline of nature - fewer insects, birds, habitats…So , yes plant a tree, a native bush, let the “weeds” ie wildflowers grow. Carbon isn’t the only environmental issue.

I hope all this anger at political corruption leads to GOOD PEOPLE running for City Council, State legislature, federal positions and more. The ONLY way to fix corruption is to CROWD IT OUT.

Challenge me: 𝗙𝗶𝘅𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗺 𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘆. Capitalism is 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵𝘭𝘺 helpful - BUT it allows for a few people to control everything and, because it’s been designed as competitive, it discourages empathy, kindness and compassion. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝘅𝗲𝘀 benefit most of us, but scare the shit out of a few of us.

America doesn’t have a media problem — it has an ownership problem. A handful decide what the rest of us believe. When truth becomes a product, who’s the customer?

The 12 richest billionaires - all white men - own more wealth than half of the world. ‘Billionaires, corporations, and politicians are taking away people’s basic ability to make choices about their futures and suppressing dissenting voices.’ For our survival, we must act. NOW.

A BERY important read. Until we discuss neoliberal capitalism- and the damage it is causing in front of our eyes, how will we build a better version of everything we have? Today’s economy is driving us downward. It’s time to look up.

The Internet is only 50 years old, and we’re already at Web 3.0. Capitalism is over 300 years old, and we’re still at version 1!? It’s time for 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗺 𝟮.𝟬, where a 𝙗𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙙 𝙗𝙤𝙩𝙩𝙤𝙢 𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙚 generates a healthy planet, healthy communities AND a healthy bottom line. imnoexpert.com/peace/what-e...

Time to Eat the rich

According to Forbes, the further monopolization of US Media ownership will provide “greater certainty for shareholders”. Oh phew!! glad the 1% who own 80% of everything will do well here. That’s what counts.

I had a rare hour to flick through tv channels yesterday evening - i generally avoid this. At most, 𝟱 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄. This is what a media monopoly looks like. Talk shows, ‘news broadcasts’, comedians, even commercials - 5 talking points. All the same. Am I wrong??

Trump. Trump. Trump. Trump. Trump. Trump. Trump. Trump. Trump. Trump. Trump. Trump. That’s my newsfeed. Again. Say what you Willa about him, but he’s damn good at manipulating you.

Are we witnessing the creation of a FOR PROFIT government? So instead of privatizing everything, they’ll just put a government on to the stock exchange. That’s not insignificant.

Somehow, we built a world where scrolling is easier than drinking clean water. That’s not progress — that’s misplaced genius.

18k followers- thanks everybody!

We’re told to tighten our belts while billion-dollar bombs fly overhead. Austerity is the tax we pay for someone else’s empire. The system isn’t broken — it’s working exactly as designed.

Of course! Thank you for standing for what is right!

Yes we are all in this together. It’s not left/right, it’s not even up/down. It’s asshole/good. Time to out the assholes and unite the good people. Good people are legion.

They call it growth. But it’s really dependency — built on debt, sold as opportunity. A balanced economy doesn’t serve the few. It frees the many.

Thanks @suzzisulli.bsky.social for including me! Greatly appreciate the exposure! go.bsky.app/ScX1NgZ
