Those who embrace a naive view of American Exceptionalism love to tout how special the United States is compared to every other nation in the history of the world. That is, until it comes to American slavery. In that case, the US is no better or worse than every other nation where slavery existed. 🗃️

In 1970 in the U.S. there were 5 billionaires controlling a neglectable percent of the total U.S. wealth . In 2025 there are over 800 billionaires controlling over 30% of the U.S. economy. The theft of wealth from the lower to the upper class in the last 50 years is criminal and unsustainable.

If you say 'heteronormative' or 'unhoused person' or 'food insecurity' you're basically talking gibberish and nobody can understand you but if you say you can see inflammation in children at the airport and that vaccines lower IQ or that germs are a myth you get to fire all the scientists.

Your ignorance is astounding. And that's saying something in Trumplandia

ABC News is still calling RFK Jr. a “vaccine skeptic.” The dude was one of the most prominent anti-vaccine activists for decades. There’s video of him in 2023 saying that there’s no vaccine which is safe and effective. You can call him an anti-vaccine activist!

The same fuckers who cheer on the homeless camps getting destroyed by the cops in their cities have #empathy and #resist in their bios.

Personally, I think one big problem is both parties rely too much on donors that turn out to be white collar criminals to ever treat it with the performative concern they show over petty street crime.

I agree with Trump on renaming the department of defense to the department of war. When is the last time we defended anything

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.

They will never understand that treating workers with respect and appreciation goes a long way in those same workers putting their all into their jobs. Being cruel and hurtful feeds the empty souls of those in charge.

So much unity in the hope that one person dies. Global unity. Has that ever happened before?

Both "wars" exist simultaneously and if you think curing one will magically cure the other you are naive.

Hammers fell this last week. Accounts teetering are gone. Only a couple more weeks until "M." It was a good run. Time for bigger and better than Tiktok. 😊✌️

If you need to refer to a "god" or religion to answer this question, you aren't answering the actual question, nor facing reality.
