It says something that cis people only started caring about this *now*, and not the literal years they've paid millions to anti-trans podcasters.
Spotify is running ICE advertisements and refuses to address it. Might be because their founder is basically another Elon Musk.

The King lives in opulence whilst the peasants suffer because doing so tells them where power is held.
I am certainly no seasoned strategist but I am a little skeptical of the political wisdom behind building a giant golden ballroom and sharing a dozen photos of a renovated marble bathroom at the very moment that millions of people are losing access to healthcare and food.

This isn't how math works. Tiny once in a while treats do not add up to a house. So they want you to be miserable and have no treats AND no house.

The thing about electoralism is that it promises you can just get one guy to solve your problems and that's sadly just not possible when the problems we face are so large.

When even ‘exponential’ growth of renewables isn’t enough to curb fossil fuel emissions we SHOULD be asking what the fuck are we using all this energy for?
Most of it isn’t improving people’s lives, instead it’s driving mindless consumption, shareholder wealth & mass inequality.

Look I am just saying that if we simply threw women, Black folks, immigrants, LGBTQ people, Muslims and other minorities under the bus we could go back to discussing the class-based white people politics that I, a white male pundit, am most comfortable discussing. Is that so hard?
