It's dystopian the way genocide and its aftermath is removed from mainstream news after the supposed ceasefire, worse when you realise it's because majority of Palestinian journalists were killed.
I don't get greed. If I had Bezos cash, I'd be fixing a problem every week. Homelessness? Not on my watch. Hungry kids in school? No way. Animal shelters full? I'll build 10,000 more.
Palestine is still facing a genocide, Iran is still facing an internet blackout, Lebanon is still getting bombed, people in sudan are still being killed, people in Congo are still being killed. Continue spreading awareness.
The man vs bear argument has been upgraded to man vs lion. A 13-year-old girl in Ethiopia was abducted and abused by a group of men but was rescued by lions when they heard her crying and protected her until the police came.
A literal wild animal saved a girl from.... MEN.
Actually, different salaries should only affect how luxurious your life is, not your food quality or ability to afford rent. If you work 40 hours at any job, your income should be enough to live in the town you work in. Thinking otherwise is an abysmal indicator of your humanity.
MacKenzie Scott divorced Jeff Bezos and got $36 billion in the divorce.
She has donated $26 billion to charity since then.
She’s now worth $42 billion, six billion MORE than when she started
TAX THE BILLIONAIRES. THEY’LL BE FINE.
Something that breaks my heart as a Millennial is how fucking optimistic and fun our teenage years and 20s were. Like we envisioned a TOTALLY different world from the one that we've got and insanely divorced from what Gen-Z are experiencing. Its hard to put in words how fantastic we thought life was gonna be and how it seemed like we were making tangible social progress. We've had all of that ripped away from us.
At this point, what does “international law” even mean if some countries can act with total impunity and face zero consequences?
They’re literally wiping entire cities and towns off the map right in front of us, ffs.
Just remember it took Congress 5 months to agree to $600 stimulus checks for Americans, and 8 hours to send $13.6 billion to another country and give themselves a 21% pay raise.
The fact we are going to have our first trillionaire before everyone has access to clean drinking water is proof our current system is not for the greater good but for the greedy.
I miss when men just organically took care of women. I’m not talking about financially but in general. You see a woman putting air in her tyres & immediately take over. Heavy groceries? You carrying them. With no expectation of anything in return. No motives, just men.
Congress should be forced to retire at 70. Salaries should be $60K, the average American salary. They should pay a minimum of $300/month for healthcare with a $1,000 deductible, like we do.
To represent us, they should live like us.
AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT FINDS IT FUCKING INSANE THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE US GOVERNMENT IS ACTUALLY TRYING TO PUNISH A COMEDIAN FOR TELLING A JOKE, BUT NOT THE PRESIDENT FOR TERRORIZING THE WORLD AND THREATENING TO DEMOLISH AN ENTIRE CIVILIZATION 🤷
RIDICULOUS 🤡
Sometimes male anger at ‘women getting special treatment’ reminds me of a gorilla experiment. One gorilla gets a banana every hour. The females next to him get one every four hours. Then someone decides to be fairer and gives the females a banana every two hours instead. The original gorilla? He flips out. He's still getting his banana every hour, but it feels like a loss because his advantage shrank. That's how a lot of men react to basic fairness for women: not as justice, but as theft.
