BREAKING: AOC just gave a powerful speech demanding a suspension in the transfer of U.S. weapons to Israel. "If you want to know what an unfolding genocide looks like, open your eyes!"
Was obvious what these monsters were planning to do w this tech. Let’s pls stop letting these people get away with calling them dogs. And figure out how to disable them if/when they come after us.

Also retirement, a house, and the ability to enjoy life shouldn’t even be *REWARDS* for working; they should be guaranteed to all people.

Thank you for sharing that John. I’m glad to have seen this thread and been able to learn about your sister. She sounds like a very special person. So sorry for your loss. Will be thinking of her, you, and your family.
tbc still trash, still just words/performance, still woefully inadequate language to describe whats happening & whos responsible (acts as tho US & Biden arent sponsors of this genocide) & still pathetically late. Most impt pt is that politicians shld never know peace. Any of them

I bet the final challenge of this show, if they for some reason decide not to pull the plug on it based on how it’s been received online, will be to produce something like this
I love that these types of smug careerist pricks can only conceive of a human being with real thoughts, feelings, worries, frustrations, expenses etc. as a “brand of person” because nothing *they* say or do is authentic, or done for any reason other than social status or making $

Why? Why shouldn’t that be *everyone’s* baseline? A secure, good, comfortable, happy life. Do you think that’s not possible for some reason?

@BernieSanders
I don’t mean to be a dick but I think it’s more meaningful & revolutionary for Bernie to give people this kind of space to share their stories and be heard, than it is for Elizabeth Warren (my 2nd choice candidate) to take selfie photographs w ppl. Why isn’t anyone saying this?

Retirement is only “for people that have worked” because you’ve heard & bought into that; we made this whole way of life up, and we actually can take a hard look at it, realize that it makes no sense, and then come up with an entirely new way of life…

Paul I don’t know how it works. All I know right now is how the current way *doesnt* work. & I know that this current way was made up & created in ppls imaginations. So, we can, if we choose/allow ourselves to, use our individual & collective imaginations to figure out a new way.

When I was little, people used to say, “I see London, I see France, I see _____ (whoever’s) underpants,” so I’ve always felt a very strong connection with both the British and the a French.

If you’re mad abt the Supreme Court (which you should be), & you have any trust or faith in the current version of the Dem Party, I implore you to at least interrogate your relationship w them. There is not a good party & a bad party in the US; there is a bad party & a worse one.

This is what govt is now: a massive apparatus to demand & collect our $ & transfer it to the wealthy, while threatening us w violence/imprisonment for the slightest infraction & miring us in debt & bureaucracy to keep us tied up while tsk tsk-ing us abt how were to blame actually
I’ve been judged & criticized for being as cautious as I have & I’m constantly told I need to stop but I’m telling y’all if you don’t know ppl who’re experiencing fucked up things after covid, either the ppl you know aren’t sharing or it’s only a matter of time before you do /end
If you’re in the US & you get Covid, the US govt gave you Covid. I think it’s okay/more-than-reasonable to be angry at them (specifically
@CDCDirector
@potus
@WHCOS
et al)
I would like to suggest as much as you may have personified who "gave" you Covid and how angry you may be at them, you simply don't know who it was. SARS-CoV-2 is the most widespread, transmissible virus ever studied at this scale. In the US, it is everywhere.

Even if protestors don’t fight back they always say that they did, both to justify more brutal violence, and in many cases to arrest and bring charges after.
I’m increasingly hearing abt ppl I know p well start to experience long term effects they can’t ignore or dismiss. I have 2 close neighbors (on my block) w severe long covid. One told me 2 weeks ago she can’t walk 2 blocks wo having to stop & rest, even though she used to 2/x
So much lost w twitters controlled demolition. & making it worse is the absence of definitive replacement, which will result in fragmentation of communities & tbh, reality, even further. Twitter is the only place ppl are able to *try* to piece together what’s *really* happening
Every time I try the other apps I’m reminded I’m losing almost 4 years of carefully curated public health data and the entire history of my illness and shocking medical experiences since 2020. I’m too sick to start over.
SO MUCH history is going to disappear, by design.

Steady?! He called a voter fat & yelled at someone last wknd!
Honest?! He’s been caught in many significant lies, as recently as Sunday!
Leadership?! Where is he rn?! It’s a global pandemic & the economy is crashing!!
Empathy?! Abt the younger generation: “I have no empathy”
Can anyone explain why when weed strains are combined they get their own very easy to pronounce & remember NEW names, but when strains of a deadly virus combine, they get named like suggested passwords on an iPhone??
It took me a while to see. Way longer than I’d like to admit. But after 2016 esp, I saw what was happening. And once I did, I couldn’t unsee it.
If you’re still a believer in the Democratic Party, please, interrogate the conclusions that you’ve made abt what they *really* want.
Democrats control the House, Senate, and White House. They could use their majority to codify Roe, pass a living wage, and make healthcare a human right. But passing laws to solve issues just isn’t as profitable as using these issues to fearmonger and fundraise for 2022 and 2024.

are legitimate and her handling of them have been petty, immature, and inadequate.

Alright, I can't do this anymore. It's time for me to come clean abt something...
We (the govt) are intentionally disabling & murdering millions & millions & millions of ppl by continuing to let COVID rip & lying abt everything lol.
Whew, that feels good to get off my chest.
didn’t know what it was or what to think or do abt it. They previously dealt w anxiety & depression but said this was different. They said, “I’m just having a rough wknd & feel like a switch flipped w my mood & behavior & thoughts & I don’t feel myself” & “I’m having horrible 5/x
but said she’d look into it & that she’d heard abt a long covid clinic at Penn. Then 2 days ago a diff friend (not a neighbor & not on Twitter) who’d gotten covid for the 2nd time last mo, texted in a panic bcs they are experiencing sudden mental/psychological anguish & they 4/x
awful symptoms. How fucking cruel!! Like, imagine how scary that would be to go through. & exhausting/exasperating. This is what so so sooo many ppl are experiencing after getting infected. & all so unnecessary. If ppl had the right info, they could make better decisions. 12/x
We have a moral obligation to pay attention and fight back, even if we ultimately think it’s a losing battle. It very well could be. But the only way to guarantee defeat is to give up.

Wow. Who does this turd think he is for real?? He gets one [bad!] article published in The [pathetic] Atlantic solely because of who his sniveling, servile parents are and suddenly he starts acting like the boss of the internet.
read abt post-covid psychosis & started looking into, bcs I knew they had covid 3-4 wks ago (got it from a kids bday party they were guilted into going to - they told me @ time they were run down & wanted to skip, but parent insisted it was fine bcs the RAT they took was -) 7/x

So…this is actually really really bad situation on both micro & macro level. What this friend is experiencing rn is, imo, tantamount to torture. They’re having to navigate this on their own, while experiencing these 11/x

There is a whole party that exists to oppose the [awful] Republican Party and instead of doing that, they either adopt the policies/language of that party or they feign ineptitude and allow the party to do whatever they want while wringing their hands and whining abt it.
@BenBurgis
There are also places where the money that people pay in taxes goes toward providing them w things that they need, like health care, education, up-to-date infrastructure, etc., as opposed to spending mostly on things that destroy people like military, prisons & policing, etc.
I’m sharing this 1. to see if anyone has any resources specifically abt post-covid psychosis 2. bcs for a long time this was hypothetical to me (but still scary) & now it’s real to me & ppl need to be aware & change both their behavior & what they demand from ppl in charge 13/x

I don’t think it will be long before ppl start to realize that Dems & Biden are the true spoilers in this election & every election before it, so long as media keeps allowing Dr West to speak.
They occupy the space where true opposition should be but they don’t actual offer it.
