If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Only recently started watching an ICE report map (rather than just happening upon posts) and, like, I knew it was bad but I didn't realize how bad.

If you're in the US and don't think there are abductions happening near you, you're just not correct.

If you have ever doubted that water really *is* blue, here's a photo of a meltwater pond on a glacier in Greenland. The water is pure, and the white background makes the colour obvious. You need a lot of clean water to see it, but the true colour of water is an incredibly striking brilliant blue.
