Me at uni: *basically a social democrat*
Wise old people: “That'll change once you get a job and pay taxes in the real world”

It is important to resist the commodification of basic human needs. Food, water and healthcare cannot be subordinated to market considerations or geopolitical interests. Access to adequate food is a fundamental human right grounded in the dignity of every person. Meeting this need not only alleviates suffering but also addresses underlying causes of geopolitical instability. Indeed, food security is an essential component of global and integral security. https://t.co/DgkM9RegJ7
I saw a comment saying the U.S. is the only country in the World Cup without universal healthcare. And I was like nahhh no way that's accurate.

I sometimes feel we've REALLY lost our perspective lately because $112 billion in net profit in a year is an INSANE amount of money, yet Apple is saying it's forced to increase prices on consumers. We should just be so much angrier about all of this.
there's a michelle obama quote i can literally never find about how she went into a room with "the experts" and immediately was like, okay, where's the real room with the actual experts. these people are not smart
this is what blows my mind when people act like elon is wildly intelligent instead of just good at extracting wealth from a broken system. DOGE saved us $15 million dollars a year by cutting this program which within two years led to a cost of $1 billion lol. a five year old could tell you that’s not a good deal.
It really needs to be emphasized that Trump isn't just the most corrupt president we've ever had (and there's no close second), he's also the most corrupt leader in any modern democracy. This really isn't something you see in the first world.
In my lifetime, China lifted 850 million people out of poverty, while the US created one trillionaire. It is clear as day that socialism is the key to our future.
