Let’s survive this 1000-alarm fire together. Also, not to be morbid, but if you’re going to protest—get a will, health care proxy & power of attorney. If you’re unable to act, you’ll want to appoint someone you trust to act for you. (Free legal advice.)

A lot to digest here, but this should be getting a lot more coverage. It's a scary vision of the future: Elites developing an explicit anti-democratic ideology, and of course becoming even richer in the process. Disguised as “innovation-driven,” it's all about further concentration of power and $
I know there is confusion and unknowns about what we are facing.

But we actually know a lot: what is happening, why, who is doing it, what their plans are, etc

A lot of people worked on this site to help close the gap, please use it and share it

There is lots of good stuff about increased computational power. There is a lot of bad stuff about computational power built, owned, controlled, sold, maintained under capitalism, by fascism.

The AI bubble is not bursting. This is the start. There will be ups and downs in the stock. It proceeds.

Tax and regulate the rich or else we're vulnerable to their childhood traumas. Literally Orson Welles' Citizen Kane warned us of this.
Musk didn't take over Twitter, because he liked how it empowered activists, journalists. He wanted to turn it into a fascist disinformation machine. DOGE is the same project. Ruining the lives of people he hates was the point. Musk is a racist trust fund kid seeking revenge for the end of apartheid

Back in January, they said the resistance was dead.

Now our pro-democracy movement is surging — and the midterms are our next big electoral test. Please pitch in if you can to help us power the grassroots organizing that will win back Congress: secure.actblue.com/donate/indiv...

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.

Don't fall for it.

Research reveals demographic shifts among Russian relocants in Serbia and post-Soviet countries due to political motivations, affecting societal attitudes and demographics.

As the tide of Russian migration rises, Serbia becomes a haven for the disillusioned and skilled.

(📢) What Trump did today was not a SHOULD impeach, it was a MUST impeach.

He said anyone who challenges his authority—an authority he doesn’t have—to give illegal orders to the military must be executed.

That is a prima facie case for impeachment.

Articles should be drawn up.

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF
