We pay attention to politics, most Americans don't. They care about the cost of living. Americans are drowning financially. The dems need to hammer home their plans to address this, and hammer home who's to blame. We can do more than 1 thing at a time. www.newsweek.com/democratic-p...

I ran across this. Very thought provoking. How where we are now is tied to how we handled post civil war America. www.facebook.com/share/r/19ty...

Would you be willing to repost this: kidsvcancer.org#/14/ It goes to a form people can use to contact their senators and representatives and express support for the Give Kids a Chance Act. This Act includes childhood cancer measures that republicans stripped out of the spending bill in Dec 2024.

There's *a lot* going in the world, so it's understandable that folks wouldn't have the energy/bandwidth to reflect on the dangers posed by AI, but this is what concerns me most: the ability to produce what appears to be real video that looks convincing to most viewers. Pretty damn scary.

I think that what trump is doing to the economy, stock market, tarrifs, immigration...all of it, is what the techbros and his economic advisors are telling him to do. They are true believers in the " burn it down and rebuild" philosophy. He gets his ego stroked and revenge, they get their new world.

Have we all figured out the "Handmaid's Tale", "V is for Vendetta" vibes yet? We are in the midst of a Christofascist takeover of our country.

I'm wondering if this is how it works. We buy a product being tariffed. The 25% tariff goes into trumps government coffers, money he will use to abuse Americans and make himself richer. I am sorry that it will hurt tariffed countries, but I'm going to try not to buy those products.

I can't shake the idea that the people behind 2025 want to change the education system more than anything else. Children absorb what they are taught. Once you have indoctrinated the younger generation, you have the country. Children can be taught to rat out their parents, neighbors and friends.
