tyranny = zero stars, do not recommend. who knew the apocalypse would be so cringe?
I used to teach college in a MAGA area and I've seen how education—including exposure to different POVs—can counter ignorance and prejudice. You're right, folks need to be educated on *solutions* because no one's saving us.

We have to be the leaders we deserve.

Or if "just 114,884 working-class Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania voters [had shifted] from Trump to Harris, the Democrat would have prevailed."

Many weren't ultra-MAGA but were frustrated with the economy and thought the orange billionaire would make eggs cheaper or something 🫠
If Less Than 115,000 Votes Had Switched in Three Battleground States, Harris Would Have Beaten Trump
The Electoral College's count Tuesday confirms that Trump fell dramatically short of a "massive mandate."

Okay this is great to hear:

“I intend to be back to this facility, and I have made a request to visit all DHS facilities in Illinois, and I look forward to the administration granting that request.”

Thank you for your continued oversight of these detention facilities @laurenunderwood.bsky.social

I really appreciate that he has a statement on empathy! Elon Musk says "empathy is the fundamental weakness of Western civilization" and I'm ready for politicians to start pushing back against the toxic idea that we shouldn't care about others. This kind of thinking gave us MAGA.

Poor Ukraine. They're fighting for their existential survival and this corrupt regime is working for RUSSIA. I don't even recognize my country anymore.

Try to be kind to yourself and take breaks from the awful news during these tough times. I believe kindness will win eventually.

"a sea of cruelty and vulgarity" —well put! I agree, and Americans will never forget the corporations that assisted in dismantling our democracy and terrorizing our communities. And ICE needs to be held accountable for its lawless brutality!

Until our leaders step up, the people will.
