I love that someone said that. Everyone hates Boomers (understandably) but it is genuinely a problem that the “Great Transfer of Wealth” is not going to be to the children and grandchildren of Boomers.
Your parents/grandparents assets will be given to these healthcare companies
A person that becomes a trillionaire should be shamed and ostracized for hoarding massive amounts of wealth. That kind of behavior isn’t admirable but rather greedy and sociopathic.
I finally understand what Machiavelli meant when he said, “Never play fair in a game where others cheat.” It doesn’t mean become evil. It means stop being naive. Stop bringing honesty to people who study manipulation, stop giving access to people who weaponize closeness, and stop expecting clean hands from people who already showed you they’ll throw dirt. Sometimes wisdom is not revenge. Sometimes wisdom is learning the rules of the room before the room uses your goodness against you.
We look at our neighboring worlds and we see a grim warning. Venus is a runaway greenhouse hellscape, its surface hot enough to melt lead. Mars is a frozen, bone-dry desert. Earth is the anomaly,a perfectly balanced, delicate jewel where the conditions for life are miraculously just right.
Yet, we continue to treat our atmosphere as if it were an infinite dumping ground.
A fragile canopy. A destabilized climate. A global crisis.
Hegseth removed Chappie James's portrait from the Air Force Art Gallery and left the wall empty.
James flew 179 combat missions across two wars. First Black four-star general in US military history.
Curry passed that portrait every day for a decade. When it came down, he retired.
The wall is still empty.
libraries literally aren't just places to obtain books for free. they're some of the few public spaces left in our society where you're allowed to exist without the expectation of spending money.
I’m sick and tired of people mocking those who care about the planet. Clean air matters. Living forests matter. Healthy oceans matter. Animals matter. Biodiversity matters. Wanting a livable world for future generations should not be controversial.
The myth of democracy can’t survive into the age of trillionaires—the ruling class isn’t even pretending it will. They’re busy preparing for an entirely different future than the one they’re selling us on. In fact most of us don’t appear in their future at all. This may be our last moment of choice.
The US is long overdue for revolution. That it has not yet taken place is a testament both to the enduring power of the US ruling class and to the resulting docility, servility and conformism of its people. The US is truly the most propagandized nation on earth.
RFK Jr has cut Alzheimers research.
Alzheimers.
One of the most devastating, urgent and increasing health problems we face today.
He's not interested.
He's a nasty piece of work.
People made a mistake believing the nutters were the climate activists and not those profiting from putting 100 million tonnes of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every single day.
