I believe that input from working people is far more important than input from someone who simply has money. I believe that we shouldn't be settling for crumbs while billionaires eat the cookie we baked.
I’m a teacher. I live to make my dog happy. Going to work every day like normal during a fascist takeover is maddening… 😱

They ALWAYS get too greedy. Always. Never learn their lesson on their own. It’s up to the people to remind them how to share…
Hey GOP: You are killing the economy with your policies you dumba**es. Who do you think is going to pay your rent and buy your goods after you wreck the economy? The Middle Class literally supports you and your yachting lifestyle and you are crushing us. Wake TF up.
He was a narcissist and a puppet. The sociopathy was in the system around him, the Heritage Foundation, corporate lobbyists, and right wing media who controlled him. His narcissism made him easy to manipulate because he liked being the star of the show. Sound familiar? Still, he WAS fucking Satan…
I hate that our leaders did this to us and we just sat by and watched it happen. What should YOU have by now? All that stolen labor, all the wage theft. Years of your life just given away, body breaking, while the parasites sat around in their their multiple homes like useless parasites, watching…
He looks inbred. Worshipping that freakish Kennedy dynasty has been a huge mistake for this country. The whole Camelot BS should have been the first sighn. We don’t need or want royalty. Worshipping rich assholes is why we’re here and that family was never worth all the fucking hype.
Do we all see now how our country rewards THE WORST KIND? Can we finally stop falling for rich sociopaths and calling them leaders? CEO’s? Can we finally WAKE THE FUCK UP FROM THIS CAPITALIST NIGHTMARE?! GREED IS NOT GOOD AMERICANS! Fucking learn how to share already you parasitic freaks!

Spoiled boys in adult bodies showing off their new toys and acting like bullies. The male mind never evolves.
Fastest and best at what exactly? Stealing from others? Well, he wasn’t fast enough to outrun public disgust, was he? These sociopaths have faulty wiring and zero clue how a healthy, functioning society works. Their self worship is gross. Glad this guy is being called out.
This story is the perfect example of how the parasite class get rich in the first place. So on brand for a CEO. Useless bunch of selfish brats who know how to do nothing but bully their way into getting what they want and taking away what others rightfully earned. Fuck them all.
This shit doesn’t happen in France and I’ll tell you why: the rich went too far and they cut all their heads off, when the rich get above themselves, the French just stop working and everyone remembers who actually holds the real power. Use your power. They don’t let you have unions for a reason.
I mean, stopping rewarding rich cheaters and liars who have rigged so much in society might help. Addressing how capitalism and patriarchy often go hand in hand with narcissism to create a society ruled by psychopaths obsessed with personal gains instead of societal ones. The cult of the individual.
His ego would rather he die…
When politicians refuse to raise taxes on the filthy rich claiming they're wealth creators who've threatened to move abroad, it's worth remembering that they're all lying bastards. The workers create the wealth with which the filthy rich hoard, spend & bribe politicians. #SocialistSunday
wild how the biggest predictor of job security right now seems to be if your job is just being a huge piece of shit
“Let’s begin by saying that we are living through a very dangerous time.” So opens “A Talk to Teachers,” which James Baldwin delivered to a group of educators in October, 1963.
All variations of the same blow up doll…
This is a must-read article.
I don’t know why, but this comforts me. Grateful not all my childhood hero’s turned out to be scum... 💙
Go figure. People actually like being a part of a community.
Wage theft is keeping the same salary while having high inflation Wage theft is keeping the same salary while having much higher profits Wage theft is when CEOs earn your year’s salary in one day
I'm still weirded out by the rebranding of what this was called - Work to Rule. You work according to what you are contracted to do within the hours you are paid. You aren't 'quitting', you are fulfilling the role you are paid for fully.
CEOs are trying to convince you that quiet quitting is worse than wage theft, while they plan on replacing you with a robot. Unions know better. Happy Labor Day Weekend.
It just takes one selfless person…
May his doctors treat his as well as James Garfield’s did…
Abundant community space and retail business, achieved by regulating scarcity of cars.
Smarter than your average human…
All you have to post…
I love this post
I can
Everyday Americans are held to a higher standard, facing serious consequences for even small mistakes, while those in power from the so-called “party of law and order” keep breaking the rules without accountability.
Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.
I mean, Pryor was life.
Yes. Those structures are about the same in all Scandinavian countries: Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Iceland. And here, people are the happiest in the world. Yes, we pay higher taxes, but we also get a lot for what we pay. And we have courts that are free from political influence.
Yes. We also have almost cost free medical treatments, free schools including university, decent infrastructure (which of course could be better...), a robust and fair voting system, etc. Trump calls it socialism. We just call it common decency.

Public shaming works. No one has to march in lockstep with fascists who target and terrorize our neighbors. The Nuremberg Trials explicitly rejected “I was just following orders” as a defense. They set a precedent: individuals have moral and legal responsibility, even under authoritarian systems.
MAGA “men” will say anything to get their way. Screaming spoiled brats trying to function in society with the selfish me me mentality a 4 year old.
So good
Portuguese President De Sousa says Trump “is objectively, a Soviet, or Russian, asset. He functions as an asset” Reporter notes "likely De Sousa’s views are shared by other European leaders" If so, suggests that US government is effectively occupied by Russia www.thedailybeast.com/portuguese-p...
Look up the word: obtuse.
What’s the next step after getting booed? Because we need to start stepping this shit up…
I hate the smug church mouse face of his. Arrogant little creepy imp.
The simple truth is that children in the poorest places on earth died from lack of food and medicine because the richest country on the planet voted to shred their own Constitution due to annoyance over the prices of their chicken nuggie delivery services.
Conservatives are selfish, apathetic, callous freaks and they are the cause of this.
Absolutely incredible writing:
What does society do with people as openly sociopathic as that? Serious question. At one point when we had a somewhat healthier society, they were shunned. But now?
Every god damn time. It's written in history everywhere. Yet it still happens over and over again.
Because the 1% have so much control over UK Media, they are able to propagandise incessantly, blaming everyone else for all the problems that the 1% create. Even the smartest person will succumb to propaganda when it's constant and insidious. We need more free voices like George and less of Nigel.
Are we really going to drown in six inches of water? The central far right claim - that our problems are caused not by those with power and wealth but by utterly powerless people (asylum seekers etc) - is obviously and pathetically wrong. Yet millions, once more, are floundering in that puddle.
That’s the point of what they’re doing. Trying to wear us all down so they can run us all over.
RFK jr, a man with a laundry list of behavioral problems is running the HHS (including the CDC, NIH, FDA, CMS). If he wants to personally have cult-beliefs, that's on him – but we must not allow him to project his own pathological beliefs onto 345 million people of this country. This is not science.
COP ACCUSES JOLLY OF STOLEN VALOR
"Feeling trapped and facing eviction, the mother-of-one turned to a charity and asked for £600. The money came through almost instantly... Since receiving her grant, Laura Burns' life has been transformed – she now has a new home, a job and is about to get married." UBI will do so much for so many.
He’s so abnormal. Nothing about how he’s lived his life is normal. He has no context of what it’s like to be an actual human being in the same way most people do. Plus, he’s an insane narcissist who should be kept the fuck away from any kind of power over others. Fucking country’s gone batshit crazy
And we can unrig it with a new Workers Bill of Rights that will cap out CEO to median worker pay gap and reduce full time labor to 30 hrs/wk and provide unlimited PTO for illness. They broke the social contract and it is on us to fix it. It is on us to stop this oligarchy.
Angus: I’m saying we need to start building progressive media that people actually listen to. I’ll give you an example: MeidasTouch. Wherever I go in Canada, working-class people listen to MeidasTouch because they talk about what’s happening in a practical way. They give facts.
Working that one brain cell pretty hard today. Good for you!
No one. It’s flawed logic based on desperation.
Go fuck your self dude. You don’t know how to have a discussion. This is the attitude that got us here. I guarantee you that someone like me has contributed 1000x more to society than some selfish celebrity. Get better role models or STFU.
That’s not what this is about. They are part of a society. Society is collapsing. Every citizen has a duty to help and they have tons of reach and resources the rest of us don’t. They can help set up mutual aid funds, at the very least. They are fellow Americans, no?
Let’s all promise to remember the names of those who coasted in comfort and apathy while the rest of us begged for help and support. Fucking bunch of useless narcissists…
I've honestly had it with a lot of celebs right now. Just cashing checks and doing very little to engage with America's slide into authoritarianism is one hell of a choice.
All these guys do and all our politicians do is make up rules and shit just to STEAL from us. They have stolen years of our time, money, and life. We need to take it all back. Decades in some cases of wage theft. I will not go out like my dad who worked himself till he died at 63. Fuck this insanity
The greed is insanely off the charts for the CEO of overpriced bad tasting coffee…
Everything about this country is fucked. We need a do over.
I’m starting to think they are perfectly fine with all the shit this depraved regime is up to. They aren’t that clueless and dumb, but I do believe they are that greedy and power hungry…
This administration is filled with people who would probably be serial killers had they not been born privileged as fuck.
“But the strategy fails… when societies recognize the game early enough and refuse to play along. When institutions that would normally compete or stay in their lane realize that they rise and fall together. That’s what collective action is. And that’s why it’s so dangerous to autocrats.”
Yeah they don’t look all that thrilled. I hope he keeps annoying the fuck out of them. Be easier to choose a side when the time comes…
No
Universal basic income is UNIVERSAL. That's a key detail. You can do a pilot that provides unconditional cash to a thousand people, but unless they all live in the same small town of 1,000 people, it's not truly testing UBI. That's where we see the big impacts, like boosted local GDP and less crime.
Slumerica. This country is one nasty joke on regular folk. Fuck this noise. When the hell is the revolution coming. I cannot take much more of this depravity.
His kind never dies… naturally.
Here’s a fact: I would NEVER vote for someone because Hakeem Jeffries told me to. He has no sway with me at all. I would, however, consider voting for someone if Zohran Mamdani told me to. Because if he likes someone, that’s worth a look. I think Hakeem doesn’t fully grasp that shift.
Fuck Snoop. Another sell out.
1. Snoop voted for Trump. 2. Snoop is a capitalist. 3. Stop worshipping celebrities.
It’s inevitable. History proves it. This inhumane depravity is unsustainable. And it’s anyways the dupes that go down first.
Jeffries is an automaton reading from a script written by donors and his own ambition. Nothing more. Nothing less. He may as well not even be real.
Everyone’s a fucking grifter. Everyone’s looking to get paid. Fuck this diseased, greedy, soulless country.
Jeffries: rehearsed, emotionally disconnected, and disturbingly unaffected by the depravity around him. It’s not normal. None of these “leaders” are normal. Can we stop pretending opportunistic narcissists and sociopaths are good leaders just because they’re polished? Not everything’s a brand…
No.
Typical. Legit study analyzed 323 major campaigns between 1900–2006 and found that 53% of nonviolent campaigns succeeded, compared to only 26% of violent ones. When at least 3.5% of a population actively participates in a nonviolent movement, success is almost guaranteed. GENERAL STRIKE. Duh.
Actual human communication is dramatically more complicated that. Democrats have, without exaggeration, driven American democracy into a wall by outsourcing their brains to this class of hucksters, who pretend to insight but who have never successfully changed the public narrative on anything.
The modern political and economic systems are structurally tilted toward: • Narcissistic self-promotion • Lack of empathy • Compulsive lying • Exploitation of others • Aggressive manipulation for personal gain The public had been brainwashed to worship and reward these dangerous qualities.
He is dead eyed. It’s disturbing. He comes off like an automaton. Soulless and emotionally unmovable. He’s disturbingly unaffected by the depravity surrounding him…
Long ago we switched from professional journalists to attractive on-air readers in it for money and celebrity. Just like virtually all of American business.
I can’t wait until these raged out pieces of human trash are crying in their jail cells about how they were only following orders. Boo hoo Cletus and Jim Bob, you WILL rot in prison one day soon. The arc always swings back…
Let’s delete Scott Baio out of Happy Days. He doesn’t deserve to be a part of wholesome beloved pop culture, the perverted little Nazi.
Finally my disdain for centrists is becoming mainstream. Finally. I no longer have to scream into a void. Centrists stand for nothing but their own comfort. That’s it. That’s all.
Centrists put us in our current hell. Biden and his “old school” presidency… Don’t get me started on Merrick Garland. 🤬
Takes them awhile as they’re not used to giving a shit about what the people “below” them think…
Man, these corporate pretend liberal Dems have really outed themselves. I mean, if people still don’t see how these donor owned, opportunistic do-nothings keep screwing over working people at every turn, then we’re just doomed to repeat this cycle of greed and corruption forever.
Senator Roland Gutierrez THIS BULLSHIT TWEET BY ABBOTT I CANT KEEP QUIET ANYMORE
I can’t wait until this entire closed elite ecosystem becomes obsolete and the people who just walked into public positions of influence and power right out of the birth canal become irrelevant.
Everything every fascist believes is the exact worst thing accomplished by the most dogshit possible mechanisms and I think it fuckin sucks that they're still somehow in charge of like everywhere practically
PLEASE LET TODAY BE THE DAY HE CEASES TO EXIST!
