Facts matter. Fair play matters. I believe in truth, kindness, and paying it forward (happy to pay more taxes to help others in need). Democracy thrives when we protect voting rights, truth, and compassion. **NO DMs**

That Jeff Bezos interview where he says he wants to cut taxes for working people… Why? What’s his game? Because for sure there is one… Gary’s Economics digs into it, the politics, and the consequences... defines the motive so clearly. Definitely worth your time! m.youtube.com/watch?v=xWfT...

It remains amazing to me that everyone treats Epstein, Cosby, Weinstein, Diddy, Andrew Tate, etc each as these individual cases instead of being capable of connecting the dots that we live in a society that allows/enables/celebrates sexual violence against women and girls aka rape culture.
