"We have deluded ourselves into believing the myth that Capitalism grew out of the Protestant ethic of hard work and sacrifice.
The fact is that Capitalism was built on the exploitation and suffering of Black slaves and continues to thrive on the exploitation of the poor."
-Martin Luther King Jr.
Yep
The image is a screenshot of a post on X by a user named Mrs. Betty Bowers (@mrsbettybowers .bsky.social). The post reads: "I learned this week that you can put our troops’ lives in danger, compromise our national security, and violate the Espionage Act. And the government will do nothing. But if you write an editorial for your school newspaper that Trump doesn’t like, you will be abducted on the street and disappear."
This is horrifyingly correct.
"The language that is being used has a specific resonance, which, historically, has been used to change regime type. It is important that the rights of human beings were violated. It is important that the rule of law was ignored. It is important that the executive is trying to define reality."
I'm sure we will get the answer soon. No lockdown or masks or mass vaccinations in our near future. Not even for measles, which was mostly once contained. Now idiots in the US are spreading much more than just misinformation.
Nothing to see here...
Re-education camps are the logical next step.
Trump Derangement Syndrome: when you're in a cult so hard you need a dsm for non believers.
"We're gonna win so much, you may even get tired of winning. And you'll say, 'Please, please. It's too much winning. We can't take it anymore. Mr. President, it's too much.'
-- Donald Trump, April 12, 2016
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Trump has brought shame on this nation and the world will never forget his betrayal. Partial photo of Trump on a graphic that says: “This is not a president. This is a gangster, relishing the use and abuse of power. This is not a leader. This is a criminal, a malignant hustler who's using the occupation of our White House to feed his ego and run roughshod over the morals and ideals that have inspired the world.” Quote by Steven Beschloss

2030? Did I misunderstand or is that iris too late?
I don't know who needs to hear this, but we didn't have multiple plane crashes per week under President Biden.

A flyer on the general strike, describing phase 1 (get 6 million strike cards), and the need to organize now to strike for more equitable systems, rather than those that led to the rise of fascism.
We’re building the networks, the resources, the connections, alongside over 12,000 coalition members. We need your insights & help to get the word out about this movement. When we’ve met our first goal (Phase 1), we craft specific demands. When we hit 11 million, we strike. #uspolitics #strike
