It is theft. The #SackOfAmerica They are looters, rank criminals.
Violence runs on ignorance, fear & misinformation fomenting hatred. It is always about power, petty, political, sexual, economic. Education in empathy, trust, respect & desire to approach truth & seek justice is the response. Grizzana Morandi, BO, Italia

Pitch perfect. Guns make it easy to "go off" they are and outlet for un hinged rage. To get guns under control in the US. Think automobiles: 1) Training, exams, and licensing 2) State registration 3) Regular state revision/inspection (say 2yrs) 4) Insurance (liability for damage, injury death).

Join a union and make a difference. Corporate power, the billionaire class have fomented a constant war against labor unions, by turning workers against each other (racially, religiously, gender). The only enemy is the class that would have you work more for less.

Can we repair this ship or does it go down? FDR'S promise was to define what Amerucan freedom might actually mean. To be free of anxiety, of fear, and to have the opportunity to better our lives. The past 50yrs has buried these promises. Talk of freedom now is a sham. The right to violence and hate
Avanti (@peteravanti.bsky.social)
Let's face it, the 50yr effort to overturn FDR progressive government from rights and social programs to corporate regulation has been successful. We will need a generation to recoup. We must run the fascists out, prosecute the corrupt (racists, jackals), tax fairly, and re-educate the poor schmoes.

A better way to see the past 50yrs. Since Reagan, the US has shifted income from the bottom 80% of population to the top 20% (and that is skewed to the top 1%). Trickle down was an inside joke. Vs 1979 income flows away from the 80% to the top 20% @ >$700b yr. Wonder where the middle class went?
