We blame the least of us for the problems created by the rich and powerful who care more about extracting as much profit as possible while making it harder & harder for the rest of us to make a decent living,but simply removing these so-called undesirables hasn't made us safer.
We do have our police force, jails and prisons, what has been clear is their inability to produce real community safety or justice, merely a way to warehouse millions of poor and working class people instead of giving us the resources to live with actual security and dignity.
JUST IN: A surprisingly bad job report. The US economy LOST -23,000 jobs in July (way below expectations of +80k). May and June were revised DOWN by a combined -103,000.
Unemployment rate: 4.1% ->This went down for the WRONG reasons. Over 260,000 left the labor force
Wage growth: 3.2% -->this is entirely wiped out by inflation
late but here's all the stuff i was digging in july. 50 thangs. mostly rap but a buncha crazy shit from all over. also did a little update of the blog with an actual blogroll for once. gonna be a placeholder for a bit while i work on other stuff so enjoy!

@ettingermentum tbf Cori Bush and Aisha Farooqi losing were a bummer. i wish one of the far left challengers in WA-09 made the runoff too if only for the content
@neodoestuff@Amherststation3 Okay nevermind it was fake 😭 dude the group was convinced it was real cuz the fuckass fuckcheese intro sound effect only for that to have been from some guy's comp. thoroughly humbled by this I am sorry
@ettingermentum The explanation in that case would be that Hong's opponents collectively shat their pants. WI having a diff racial makeup from the national electorate and the nature of a serial state-by-state primary def change things as well.
@neodoestuff@Amherststation3 I'm still a truther. RYM cited a random Reddit post that linked to another Reddit post with a removed Google Drive link to claim some versions were edits lol. Also they did it more as a precaution cuz they didn't wanna have to remove even more ratings if it was fake
