Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
Congrats, Virginia! Thank you! Cheers!! 🍻

An Oasis in a sea of fuckery.
“You can’t just shut something like this down and pretend it never existed,” Onion CEO Ben Collins said in a statement Monday. “If you want accountability to mean anything, you have to replace it with something better, and that’s what we’re trying to do here.”
On Thurs April 23, Paramount CEO David Ellison will host an invite-only dinner honoring Donald Trump at the closed United States Institute of Peace. A protest is planned outside at 5:30pm. Some members of Congress are expected. Please share widely.
Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).
Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.
And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.
Remember this.
On Tax day remember trump paid less in federal income taxes than many nurses, teachers and firefighters
We found out several things during the wait. 1) target uses AI for theft prevention which often falsely targets people. 2) they purposly don't notify you if you don't scan all items in a self checkout lane. 3) if u hit the ok button on the self checkout and you miss an item they say thats stealing
Sécurité / La Grande-Bretagne a passé un mois à suivre trois sous-marins russes, les empêchant de mener une opération secrète impliquant des câbles sous-marins
Why is there no one in the US government stepping up to stop this insanity? The president of the US is openly threatening genocide against a country of 90 million people, saying "a whole civilisation will die tonight". No mass resignations and the opposition party is absent. What sick death cult. Unbelievably and shockingly dangerous.
US capitalist death cult
A French general just looked at Trump’s plan to build a runway inside Iran to fly out uranium under active bombing.
His response: “American officials should stop snorting cocaine between meetings.”
Corporate cowardice and greed will be the end of us. #cowardice #greed
Disclaimer: Don't know if accurate, but seems worthy of exploring bc we know he rigged 2024. Voter data analysis & voters who confirmed their county showed 0 votes for Harris, yet they and several people they knew voted for her. And DJT's/Musk's own admission. Plus prominent Rs bragging about it.
A protected bike claim filled with people on bike bikes
If you’re in your car in traffic and you see people moving smoothly on bikes in a protected bike-lane, or a full bus zooming past you in a bus-only lane, sure you could be mad at them for moving faster than you, or you could be someone who understands geometry and knows it works better for EVERYONE.
New information on the documents Trump stole and hid at Mar-a-Lago. They included many top-secret documents pertinent to his business interests, and at least one document that was so secret only six people had authority to review it. The special counsel believed he intended to profit from them.
NEW: WebinarTV, a company that bills itself as “a search engine for the best webinars,” is secretly scanning the internet for Zoom meeting links, recording the calls, and turning them into AI-generated podcasts for profit.

The Associated Press getting on board.
"The war in Iran is exposing the world’s reliance on fragile fossil fuel routes, lending urgency to calls for hastening the shift to renewable energy."
"Putin's the clear winner. ...A month ago he could sell only 80% of his oil at 20% discount at roughly $50 [per barrel]. He is now selling all of his oil at $120 [per barrel]. He's not only not getting a discount on his sanctioned oil – he's charging a premium."

A reminder, not that Ontario needs it, that Doug Ford=Donald Trump! #cdnpoli
Voter fraud is so rare that Donald Trump has been convicted of more felonies than the total number of confirmed cases of illegal voting in US federal elections in the last 20 years.

Wow.
Great article! Human Resources shouldn't be called that, as it implies a support that, to your point, is not their core work. They should be called Organizational Governance (or something like that) so it's clear that it reflects the values of the organization (good or bad).
NEVER FORGET THEM.......
