Realism can reveal what establishment spin aims to obscure.

I don’t care if someone is taking longer than me to “go back to normal” after being vaccinated. It doesn’t matter! Let people return to stuff on their own timelines after a year of global trauma rewired their brains, you tiresome dorks! Worry about policy, not random people!

Again, pandemic unemployment is $1200/month, which is $7.50/hour or $14,400/year.

If employers can't hire staff because they can't compete with those numbers, they need a new business model.

[Dan Price @DanPriceSeattle]

79% of families receiving food stamps have at least one person working.

The problem isn't that unemployment benefits are too high. It's that wages are so low people can work and still be in literal poverty.

Imagine if food worked like housing: local governments control how much food may be sold. Food hoarders call the shots, so there's never enough food to go around. As a result, 3/4 of households are malnourished; half are severely malnourished. We all accept this as normal.

"8 people own as much as the poorest half of the world's population"

People aren’t going hungry because we cannot feed the poor. People are going hungry because we cannot satisfy the rich.

I just feel like “Udonis Hashem” was right there

[Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat]

Udonis Haslem on the impact of Meyers Leonard's words on the Jewish community, "We apologize. That won't tolerated here. I felt that. I have a lot of Jewish friends. They call me Udonis Haslem-berg at times."

It’s amazing how the ruling elite can convince working class folks that a single $1400 check to an individual earning $80K is a more significant concern than 664 billionaires increasing their wealth by $1.3T in the past year... 1/

[Adam Serwer 🍝 @AdamSerwer]

“People who live in states with political leadership I oppose deserve to die lonely deaths on ventilators” is absolutely depraved moral logic, even before you get to the tabletop-smooth brained understanding of how disease works.
