Although “woke” has had its abuses, it worked to make sexism, racism, homophobia, etc, unacceptable, taboo. Even though bigots still had their belief systems, it at least kept those on the edge from going full-bigot. Now, the right is actively recruiting young people to become bigots-for-the-cause.

Powerful men, like the ones caught up in the Epstein files, sometimes become cruel in their power, and they take pleasure and excitement in abusing the powerless which in many cases are young girls or young boys. They have to be stopped. It’s not all powerful men, but too many.

It seems like such a vapid, colorless life to look at sports, movies, books, music, politics, etc through a value-judgement lens determining if it’s “woke”. The right drains everything of its diversity, color, wonder and even humanity.

Where are our genuine heroes and heroines? I know there are hundreds of thousands that do small things every day but what about the people in power who at this point in time who can change things?

It just goes to show that with a rich family and a few good breaks even a person of average intelligence and no morals can become a trillionaire.

What happened to Elon‘s boring company? And how is Tesla doing these days? Oh yeah I wanna throw money into space, because Elon has done so well here on earth.

Prediction: SpaceX will be the biggest bust in history, within a year.

Putin is bad for business in Russia. He will not last much longer.

Finally a journalist who had more balls than the entire press corps of the USA. It figures it would be a woman who we assume has no balls, which shows us that the so called "men" of the US press are capons, not roosters.

If you credulously do a segment about the vote in California in which you don’t say the president is lying, you’re spreading disinformation to your listeners.

Trump fell asleep at the Knicks’ game because he doesn’t give a shit about basketball. He disrupted the whole game and atmosphere showing up just to be seen at an important game. Then got booed. What a disgrace.

Senator warren is barking up the wrong tree attacking Jensen Huang. He’s one of the good guys in technology.

A year from now, after adrenaline charged investors have grabbed a truckload of SpaceX stocks they’ll realize it’s no closer to space data centers than they are now. Musk-hype has intelligent investors comparing Musk to Einstein. Two descriptors come to mind - Elmer Gantry & irrational exuberance.

And the company isn’t profitable. If govt contracts are pulled, it’ll lose much much more money and likely file bankruptcy. Musk and his cronies like Ron Baron are selling snake oil. www.perplexity.ai/page/ron-bar...

The fascist christian nationalists know Americans will not willingly follow their exclusive, racist, reactionary ideology, so they’re trying to create an autocracy to force Americans to abide by their orders.

Good morning from the country!

Senator Warren has about $250,000 Nvidia stock indirectly through mutual funds, & about 1.5 million hi-tech stocks indirectly through mutual funds. Why is she so righteous when she’s making money from Nvidia. I’ll trust Huang’s ethics over Warren’s. If Nvidia drops short term, Warren benefits.

There are so many risks in musk’s business models that it seems foolish to bet on a company with such a high valuation compared to its overall lack of profit - Plus a large part of his business depends on Republicans being in Power, because so much of his business depends on government contracts.

Trump has approximately 35% support. Even this I think is too high. In reality, I believe it’s more like 25% that are still true believers.

The hard fact is people in a specialized knowledge economy will have to acquire specialized knowledge. We’re past the days where someone with a high school degree or less can make a good living and career in a manufacturing facility. Our educational systems are not sufficient for the 21st century.

Separation of corporation and state is as important as separation of church and state.

The collectivist thinking from both political parties is dangerous. All Democrats are communists! All billionaires are of the Epstein class. This is lazy, dangerous thinking.

Every time I hear news about the Russian and Ukraine war it just hurts to think about all the waste in life and property. There is totally no reason this war should’ve started and damn sure shouldn’t have gone on this long.

I’m sorry, but Sen. Warren is just wrong about technology companies doing only what helps their bottom line. She needs to do research into these companies mitigating harm that technological advances may create. Some of them are taking herculean efforts to make sure there’s no negative consequences.

From 6 to 9 am CNBC has become Fox News.

Big thing now is talking about political weaponisation as if the Biden administration made up charges against Trump. The DOJ under Biden was basically following the crimes that Trump committed and trying to hold him responsible. I don’t know how you call that weaponisation.

Both Musk & Altman are self-promoting, over-rated, ordinary con men. I’m sick of media coverage that suggests they’ve created something special. They don’t create anything but smoke & mirrors. There are very smart people who work for them, but this high level talent should find deserving bosses.

Musk is valuating SpaceX at $1.75 trillion, and the company is not profitable. Musk isn’t a tech genius, he’s a carnival barker.

If people could start envisioning the positive aspects of technological change and not just create an AI bogeyman to look solely at all the terrible things that could happen, we will make a lot more progress toward positive results that make life better for all people. Technology is not evil.

A group of Democratic billionaire hoteliers should start a chain of Obama & Michelle Hotels, and give Obamas a cut for the use of their name. Trump would go ballistic.

For Allah’s sake, Iran, just tell him he wins and that you’ll help him open the strait, and you’ll get rid of enriched uranium (wink, wink). Just get it over. Then ask for financial help to rebuild what he’s destroyed, and that you’ll build a big hotel with his name on it.

The Republican Party is dead. The midterms will be the funeral and burial.

Note to media: police arresting peaceful protesters singing “give peace a chance” is not protesters “clashing” with police. It’s the state violating the First Amendment rights of people upset that human beings who did nothing illegal are being held without due process and being fed maggots.

Had to share - MSM seems to be ignoring it.

Happy Pride Month 🤗🌈

Never forget how much the vast majority of the media are ignoring the insanity and criminality of this trump regime. They did not just let us down, they are actively complicit and aiding it for their own short term profit.

Imagine if a woman president crashed the economy and started a war with no end in sight, and her biggest, seemingly ONLY concern was building a ballroom and redecorating the White House.

This might be the first time in America that the bad guys completely took control.

The worst part of Trump bragging about acing cognitive tests is he doesn’t understand how crazy he sounds to the average American. It’s a very low level of awareness, and incredible lack of intelligence.

We pretty much know Trump’s support level - about 35%.

The mire things fall apart, like Kennedy Center reversal and 250 extravaganza, the greater the snowball momentum going downhill.

Physicians who have lied to the American people about Donald Trump’s health should be prosecuted when Democrats have the power to do so.

After hearing, rightfully, Europeans say that Americans should stop Trump, I have to say, since the Iran war hurts them, I haven’t seen much action from Europe to stop Trump and Netanyahu in the Middle East.

Starting a war like this in Iran and what Putin has done in Ukraine are pathetically backwards in the 21st century. Russia has always been backwards, but America should have a more advanced, humane political realm. We don’t. We need a complete overhaul of government..

What we’ve learned - Ukrainian govt is smarter than Russian govt.

For the most part I’m supportive of AI, but I’m not supportive of government doing anything to people who oppose AI. That’s fucking fascist crazy.

When Democrats take over, they need to do whatever it takes to make sure government cannot buy stocks in companies. I know it’s been done before but usually during crises, but it shouldn’t even be done then.

Massie needs to tell us what he knows about the Epstein files - everything, and especially Trump.
