The US Government is telling its citizens not to care about the kids being exploited by wealthy men, but rather to pay attention to how the S&P 500 is performing for those same wealthy men...
If that's not the clearest sign that we're in a class war than I don't know what else to tell you

Yeah, let what is happening to Discord radicalize you against the encroaching of puritan fascism we are seeing in laws world wide.
The US, Canada and a good chunk of the EU like Spain are looking into making laws that will actively do the same for a more expansive area of the internet.

A very good point. While calling out corporations is important, our government is trying to force av laws like KOSA and SCREEN on EVERYONE under the guise of "protecting kids". Call your reps + tell them to OPPOSE these bad bills. #SaveSpeech #Stopageverification #StopKOSA

A South African dev released a blackity black game during BHM and it's currently getting the usual suspects in the reviews.
Imma grab this up myself anyway, but can we all be some chums and help push the racists out of the reviews? 🙂

Occupy Democrats is a fake news/clickbait operation run by twin Floridian brothers who've also run a fraudulent enterprise that was shut down by the federal government. And no I don't mean the Krassensteins. It's a different set of guys
I have to say, I do not love this new trend of large liberal accounts with millions of followers identifying Jews.

Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

This is the second time an ICE employee has been arrested in in a Bloomington, MN underage sex trafficking sting www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...
Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**
He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

In 2023, I managed to slip out before the layoffs hit me, and landed a new role in 2 business days.
In 2024, I managed to secure a new role in 31 days, leaving 3 weeks before those layoffs hit.
Unfortunately, I couldn't keep dancing through the lightning strikes.
I'm now looking for work.
