Nurses don’t buy hospital beds. Firefighters don’t buy their own hoses. Teachers shouldn't have to fund their own classrooms. Stop normalizing educators paying out of pocket for basic supplies.
Yes, in fact, I do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonald’s should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That’s kind of the whole point of having a job and I can’t believe this is considered a radical position for me to take.
The "self-made billionaire" doesn't exist. Bezos got $300k from his parents. Musk's family owned an emerald mine. Gates' mom sat on the IBM board. They all had wealth, connections, and safety nets. The myth of meritocracy is just inherited privilege with a TED Talk.
Donald Trump is OFFICIALLY a rapist.
His FINAL appeal in his sexual assault case has been DENIED.
He is now the first President in U.S. History to be found liable for sexual assault.
What a disgrace.
A billionaire can write off a private jet as a business expense, but a teacher can't write off the crayons she bought for her classroom. A CEO can deduct a $500 steak dinner, but a nurse can't deduct the scrubs she's required to wear.
I saw a Trump supporter say, “You don’t have to like Trump but you have to respect him because he’s the president.”
Sir, with all disrespect… he raped kids. I don’t have to do shit.
I don’t care how “efficient” the private sector is.
Some services should never be run as businesses.
Health care. Water. Electricity. Gas. Prisons.
If a company makes more money when people get sicker, stay locked up longer, or have no choice but to pay, that’s a system built on conflicting interests.
not this halftime show being “let’s unite and love the world” whilst they’re actively bombing countries who were in the world cup and funding genocides
They want you to believe your voice doesn't matter.
Yet in just the last few days:
-LAPD canceled its Flock contract.
-Meta cancelled Muse Image AI after privacy outrage.
-One of the largest planned U.S. data centers was killed (PW Digital Gateway) by local opposition.
The surveillance state isn't inevitable.
It advances when people are apathetic.
It retreats when people fight back.
Public pressure works. Keep pushing.
