You can give a man a world class education, a long career writing and editing, and he'll still brazenly claim to not parse a sentence of three syllable words because shame is for the peasantry

The billionaires, politicians, CEOs, etc can speak with carefully chosen words and act calm and peaceful because they outsource their violence to cops, the military, bureaucracy clerks, lawyers, insurance companies, etc.

Greta Thunberg should have won the Nobel Peace Prize. Instead of Trump's warmongering oil stealing puppet.

Excellent example of how capitalism contains remnants of feudalism, and many of the rich would love to see things be even more feudal.

Abolish the House of Lords, RT if you want it gone. Tear it down.

This while the New York Times is at best center right, and sometimes middle right.

This is WILD. Power goes out in San Francisco and the robot cars, needing the lights to "self" drive, all stop at once, blocking streets and emergency vehicles - which are needed more than ever in a black out! We knew AI causes power outages. Turns out it also makes them worse by being stupid.

Mamdani spent 12 hours letting ordinary New Yorkers tell him how they think he should manage and govern the city. This kind of thing is what real democracy, real socialism, looks like.

Healthcare is a human right! Nobody should be saddled with medical debt for the rest of their lives. We need universal healthcare in the United States. #universalhealthcare #accessiblehealthcare #medicareforall

This is not “using socialism.” Many of those “farmers” are actually business owners. Using socialism would be making the farms democratically owned by all of the farm workers together, not just the one who gets to claim ownership of the land.

Good. Other big states should follow suit since Congress under the GOP won't protect our rights here.

U.S. sanctions kill as much as war. Leading medical scientists say they result in soaring mortality rates around the world #politics #news

This is how they’re going to excuse further invasions of our cities and disappearing innocent people. Anyone the regime hates will be a “designated terrorist.”

MASS SHOOTING IN RHODE ISLAND - Brown University in Providence - On day of final exams - Gunfire at engineering building - Initial report of many victims - Multiple fatalities - Possible suspect down - Situation still developing

Add this to the regime’s plan to remove birthright citizenship. Then add in ICE abductions and how they “deport” even citizens sometimes to a prison camp in Central America. They’re heading towards “investigating” US citizens and disappearing those they don’t like.

The first thing I noticed is that each segment is in a different room. Also, dogs usually don’t go directly to someone they don’t already know well and have a bond with. And honestly humans don’t tend to have strong emotional reactions to creatures (human or otherwise) they don’t already have some..

we deserve freedom we deserve joy we deserve life we deserve a government that doesn’t treat our existence as a negotiable policy position 🏳️‍⚧️ stay strong, friends 🏳️‍⚧️

🚨BREAKING 40 years ago Margaret Thatcher abolished rent controls in Scotland. The Scottish Parliament just passed a Bill introduced by the Scottish Greens, which will allow them once more! This will keep rents affordable and offer safety and stability to renters. 🙌

It's just one small step from hoping disabled people like me would "just die" to killing them like Hitler and the Nazis did ...

This is an act of war against whatever country the ship is registered in. If by chance that country is the US (almost certainly it’s not), then it’s “only” an act of high seas piracy.

9. New Hampshire has become a case study rebutting the idea that surrendering on transgender rights slows Republican attacks or protects Democrats politically; neither claim has been borne out. Now, trans people must fight again in the state for their basic rights in 2026.

1. In a stunning new bill proposed by several New Hampshire republicans, transgender women could be charged with trespass for using the bathroom. The bill is the first to apply to PRIVATE businesses. It also ONLY applies to transgender women, not trans men. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Kishwer Falkner giving a masterclass in the way fascists dehumanise minorities to foment hatred/eradication of them. Transphobia is fascism.

These 2,900 individual billionaires could lose 75% of their wealth and still be richer than 4 billion people. Inequality is eating the whole world alive.

This is what standing up for your neighbors looks like. New York showed out 🔥 F*ck ICE.

While the argument presented in this article does have a point that it takes more than simply not starving to death in the street to live a good life, it is very conspicuous in what it leaves out.

Maybe if the Trump regime hadn’t been so occupied deporting innocent working class Latin people they could have done their job and prevented this.

The next newsletter will be a bit late in getting published because of it being a busy holiday week, but I’ll see if I can’t get it out this weekend!

US Border Patrol uses network of hidden license plate readers to mass surveil Americans, sometimes detaining people for nothing more than taking a road trip for business. apnews.com/article/immi...

Good reminder that trans people, Black people, Latin people, disabled people, Jewish/Muslim/Pagan/etc people are all a lot more “everyday Americans” than out of touch rich people.

Alice Wong taught us that disabled people don’t just leave memories behind—they leave infrastructure. Lineages of care. Methods of collectivity, survival. She named the connective tissue that holds our communities together, even across death, even across the losses that come too fast and too often.
