Everyone sing along!

🎶Don’t cry for us, Argentina.
We’re like Canada, only much meaner.
And we gave up healthcare,
For your peso to be finer,
So you could steal our soybean exports.
That went to China.🎶

All the press reporters have handed in their press badges to the Pentagon, even Fox propaganda News handed in their press badges. The regime is losing control. We the People are fighting back. The regime is going to increase the violence to try to get us back down. Don't stop the resistance.

The US government is in the business of doing fucknothing, aside from protecting a massively regressive status quo.

We will never fully defeat fascism if we can't grapple with the fact that police are never held accountable. Very few people and certainly fewer politicians are honest about policing in this country. And that has led us to where we are now with ICE.

Police states thrive on fear. Authoritarianism demands a society that flinches, complies, self-censors. That’s not freedom. That’s not the America I knew and loved. When fear becomes policy, patriotism becomes resistance. #NoKings #FreeTheBear

I wish Western leftists paid more attention to how Russia is treating people from countries that are supposedly friends with it - as cheap labor and cannon fodder.

Because this is not only how Russian imperialism works today.

It's also how the Soviet Union's imperialism worked during the Cold War.

Cutting environmental regulations like trump has done is synonymous with ecocide. I think it's reasonable to expect justice one day. The only question is if we'll still be around.

We are destroying our only planet so a few incredibly rich people can be a little bit richer.

#ClimateCrisis is an existential test for humanity, and we are badly failing that test.

Your children and all future generations will pay the price of our failures.

Certain types of people are prone to weaponizing beauty like it's a moral credential—masking narcissism, manipulation, or emotional vacancy behind pure aesthetics.

Attraction without integrity is just bait. If your soul’s a ghost town, don’t be surprised when the visitors don’t stay.

The “wellness” industry is BOOMING thanks to Trump.

Every girl hawking vegan collagen and free bleeding is getting a BAG on the TikTok and YouTube creator platforms. Nothing but mysticism and superstition propelling the country forward

"There is a cult of ignorance in the U.S. & there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding it's way through our political & cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is as good as your knowledge."

Kinda wondering where all the ammosexuals who've been hoarding weapons and ammo for decades are. You know, the guys who are terrified of helicopters carrying loads of jack-booted thugs coming for them in the middle of the night? Where are you freedom-loving patriots? Kind of a mystery, I guess...

These are grass fed polled Herefords. Took this picture in our field a couple days ago. We have been in the beef cattle business for more than 30 years.

Grass fed is a marketing strategy -- it was developed to help small farmers COMPETE with factory farms.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Russia isn’t fighting Russophobia, it’s building it.
Every missile, every war crime, every act of terror breeds a new generation that will never forget.
They’ll cry victimhood from the comfort of home, while their victims will never ever get the chance to go home.

Phobia is an irrational fear. Russia is giving us well grounded reasons to fear what will happen if RU comes even close to something they can claim as ”victory”. So ”russophobia” doesn’t exist. Fear of—and hating—what RU is doing is as rational as can be.
