A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else. We mustn’t let this war do so.

In 2025, Meta paid an effective federal tax rate of 3.5% — its lowest on record. Meanwhile, Meta is pumping $65 million into elections this year to boost AI friendly candidates. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax, it's corrosive to democracy. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.

It is the latest medical center to stop caring for transgender young people after the Trump administration threatened to withhold federal funds.

People get mad if you say that the Democrats would be a center right party in Europe. But by this vote, many of them (Gavin Newsom, Seth Moulton, etc) are actually beyond the European center right and with the far right.

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.
Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting
"They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head."
An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries.
"We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic. Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders. This is what a rigged economy looks like.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but it’s not winter’s fault you feel off right now. It’s not the weather’s fault either. It’s that our society refuses to let us slow down and live in rhythm with the seasons. Our ancestors didn’t keep the same pace 365 days a year. They followed nature.
