This shit makes me so mad because people don't understand how much power we have over these companies and the only thing we need to do is not give them money. The only thing we need to do is to not do anything. It's the easiest shit! *wearily* collective action does work, it really does

The Ackmans, the Musks, the Bezoses, the Zuckbergs, the Benny Johnsons, and the Charlie Kirks of the world all knew EXACTLY what they were doing. And they did it anyway. The destroyers of America. Never forget their greed and deception. Never let them distance themselves from what they caused.

Sadly I think it will take people getting arrested. And not BLM protesters. People like this guy, an older, white man - somebody's teacher....I just hope it doesn't take somebody getting killed like Kent State but I'm afraid that's coming.

Yes. Massive, sustained nonviolent protest is the way. Research shows that nonviolent protests are twice as likely to succeed as armed conflicts. And those that engage over 3.5% of a population have NEVER failed to create change. Read about the 3.5% rule below, & please share widely!

Donald Trump has fired the head of the National Archives, the government agency that protects the Constitution and other historic documents, apparently out of revenge for asking him to return classified documents he stole when he left the White House the first time.

Well the award for most cowardly, boot-lickingest academic society has squarely gone to the American Society of Microbiology, who has taken down features of various non-white scientists. Absolutely pathetic behavior. Those articles are now coming up as “under review”. Truly sickening cowardice here.

The United States is under attack. Apparently it takes a wildfire or plane crash to get the immediate attention of MSNBC, CNN, and the rest. Last night, CNN ran a documentary about Kobe Bryant.

Musk is the culmination of a slow-moving corporate coup by the oligarch class that has been decades in the making. But that doesn't change the fact that this marks a new and unspeakably dangerous chapter.
