if there's a reason to keep up the "tribunals for all involved" discourse one such reason it is to put in stark relief how far away some of the Dem politicking is from the mood on the ground
eric swalwell said on msnow that a major goal of a dem majority after the midterms would be for ice masks to come off and badges to come out, this is insufficient

During the height of the pandemic, Tyson used Palantir to predict Covid-19 infections among meatpacking workers down to a nearly exactly figure. But rather than using this data to increase worker protections, Tyson used it plan for labor shortages + plant closures

Ms. Rachel (Rachel Griffin Accurso), the extremely popular children’s educator, said she unsubscribed from the The New York Times, “because of its biased and dehumanizing coverage of Palestinians and Palestine, and its failure to uphold journalistic integrity.”
