For the love of god primary his ass

Sometimes I feel like it’s just too simple. Then I see articles like this and I’m like nope. Staying away from that bullshit.

Early on I thought there was no chance he would win. Too young, too progressive, not white. I didn’t really follow his campaign.

Now that he’s won he’s like a beacon of hope in these awful times. He’s got charisma and he’s super smart and quick to respond to criticisms. He’s really one of a kind. It makes total sense he’s running in NYC.

On the other hand, you’ve got Katie Wilson in Seattle who has the driest personality of any candidate I’ve come across. Maybe it works for Seattle.

Way Back Machine is your friend. I don’t visit sites directly anymore.

I don’t use any proprietary apps. Only FOSS apps installed on my phone.

Absolutely. They are all complicit.

Just enraging. I will say that there appears to have been a major shift the past week with a number of leaders (e.g. Obama, Hillary) in acknowledging the starvation crisis in Gaza. I’m guessing it happened after the two Israeli organizations came out and said it.

Still need more though. I need everyone to demand cutting off aid to Israel. We’ll never see them admitting it’s a genocide, however. They have to preserve their integrity.

I had no idea he was abducted. The guy is fearless and I’m glad he’s back home safe.

It’s calling for coordinated collective action.

The “coordinated” part is what I have an issue with because who decides this coordination? Inevitably it will be the government, which means their agendas will flip widely depending on the party or the elected leader. It would be a chaotic mess going from one extreme to the other every four years or so.

Also the pandemic was proof that even scientists were not immune to being persuaded by politics. They despised Trump and his claim that covid came from a lab yet they refused to investigate until Biden came into power because at that time the pandemic situation was improving and people weren’t paying attention. The CDC also eventually admitted that their vaccine boosters weren’t necessary for the 18-49 age group when the omicron variant was spreading. Fauci was also culpable at various moments during the pandemic.

Shitstack. Everyone and their mother has a substack and a lot of it just low quality “articles.” Meanwhile the company is trying to attract investors by claiming it’s a tech company when it’s really a mediocre media company.

I am not a picky eater and enjoy many exotic, strong smelling/tasting foods.

But not durian.

Legendary interview. This thread needs a better title like “US Senator Gets Grilled Like Never Before”

Could not stand her nassaly voice.
