Tax the rich, don't be a cunt. It's pretty simple.

Also, they often price in shipping costs that are supposed to be free. I use Amazon to search product ideas, then I can usually find the thing cheaper from another site, or direct from the manufacturer. Fuck Amazon.

On the Media@onthemedia.bsky.social

"Amazon deploys deceptive tactics to exaggerate its markdowns and create a false sense of urgency. Featured items are often available at similar or lower prices at other times... major media outlets produce a massive number of 'articles' promoting Amazon Prime Day, as if it is a genuine news event."

These raids are the best reason I've heard for tax avoidance.

These ICE raids are nothing more than abductions. We aren’t told where they go, what they’re doing to them, if they’re being humanely treated (we’ve been told they aren’t feeding them or giving them enough water). The U.S. government is abducting people and torturing them at the taxpayer’s dime.

@govofco.bsky.social Hey Gov'ner... this is a ridiculous waste of taxpayer money. You need to drop this pet project of yours. Have you even considered the amount of money it will take to continually wash off all the anti-bridge graffiti that will inevitably be scribbled on it? 😄

NEW: Criticism is growing for Gov Polis’ $28.5M pedestrian bridge project, with concerns about its cost and supposed benefits to accessibility and pedestrian safety #copolitics

This is the root of all the evils. We desperately need to take the money out of politics. It's the only way to actually "drain the swamp."

Senator Bernie Sanders@sanders.senate.gov

THE most important political issue facing us now is our corrupt campaign finance system & Citizens United. As long as Musk, AIPAC & crypto money can buy politicians, we’re not living in a democracy. We must end billionaire control of our politics and publicly fund elections.

Are there any conservatives on this site? I've actually had some good conversations with right wingers in person, but this very much appears to be an acho chamber. Good info dissemination but no debate. Are all social media platforms doomed to be one-sided rant fests? Seems unproductive.

I gave a MAGA co-worker a ride home. He bitched about how expensive his family trip to Disney World was. He said, "fuck that socialist Mouse." JFC They have no idea what that word or the concept means, and they don't care as long as women, queers, and brown folk and the poor are held beneath them.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

You are up to date.
