Konrad Benjamin nails the root of the problem: to stop large industries from ripping us all off, politicians need to stop “going to work in the industries that they literally wrote the rules for”🔥

Henry “That’s not simplistic, that’s how it is!” “It is as simple as that.” 💥 #auspol

Dumbo picked a fight with someone who has a much larger cult following, and who he can't bully with tariffs, sanctions, or boycotts.

“Am I ever gunna see you face again “

The wealthiest and most powerful men on Earth have decided they will happily kill us all, whether with nukes or starvation or disease, to keep from facing the consequences of their lifetimes of crime

The Epstein scandal, the warmongering, the worship of money, we're sick of it all

Time for change
