Aiming to be a good person in the midst of chaos.

[Yann LeCun @ylecun]

Trump is just the trigger.
There are deep historical forces:
The dismantling of the FCC fairness doctrine by Reagan, the resulting emergence of Fox News, conservative talk radio, and other propaganda outlets, the removal of guardrails for the influence of money in politics (e.g. Citizen United), the continuous reduction of taxes on high incomes, the ever-increasing wealth and income inequalities enabled by the above, the stagnation of working class income despite continued increase in productivity (and corporate profits), the total lack of social protection and benefits compared to other developed countries.
People in the middle class and below have been screwed for 40 years and are angry.
They should be angry at Republicans.
But the Republican party has managed to deflect their anger towards immigrants, non-Christians, non-whites, liberals, LGBT, China, academia, intellectual "elites", scientists, journalists, and non-existent scarecrows like Antifa.

We went undercover in Project 2025.

Our investigation uncovered details of the secretive second phase of Project 2025 being led by a Trump insider, with plans to feed hundreds of highly-confidential battle plans directly into the Trump transition team.

Watch here.

@DaveHolmes These feelings of hope and joy are very confusing but I’ve decided to see if I can make them stick around for a while

I would like to live in a country where there's not a good chance of an active shooter situation in literally every public setting and I frankly don't think that should be too much to ask

It's quite something that the world's top scientists put out a synthesis report that essentially says civilization as we know it will end unless the world comes together to stop rapidly expanding the fossil fuel industry but to instead rapidly end it, and almost no one cares
