Part of the Nazi Germany analogy is the reality of how the people who thought they were in the same class and access of Nazis .. pretending nothing was happening Until it affected them And then rewriting history

The thing about all these employers rehiring after AI-misfires—they still haven't learned They're still not hiring responsibly They're still no better at role creation or maintenance They're still not prioritizing employee needs You're still the only one looking out for your long-term well-being

Everybody is gonna be mad at me Because 1) this is why “I hate Trump” sucks as a Shibboleth 2) Dems , Libs and Radicals are terrible national communicators , have abandoned helping FACILITATE national convos and this is why they are prey to this 3) yes this about our acceptance of bigotry

It doesn’t even matter at this point … they want this they like this and until this stops being preferred by so many people and systems We’re just in an experiment of seeing how far this will go

Most of those kids got expelled . Not just by the schools but also by the groups that claimed to support them . A LARGE chunk of them are still protesting they just aren’t being covered. There’s now a 5k-10k protest in some form everyweek And even if those people exist WHAT ABOUT EVERYONE ELSE

Entrepreneurial tangent… I’m highly wary working with people who prefer working with people/things that can’t say no. Hearing, processing, and navigating “no” is an exercise in growth and maturity. Anyone seeing to eliminate that? Suspect. Deeply.

I know we’re in rough times cuz I got established white men hitting me up for career and indie/freelance advice 🫠 The layoffs in my world have been bad…but the worst part is how disruptive they’ve been “I can’t put myself or my family through this again”…

And remember the solution of DEI didn’t actually do much but ask that folks have enough actual representation to make things run smoothly and grant other options So when white people talk about oligarchs they always leave out how fighting racism is fighting oligarchy

We won’t make any sustainable progress against fascism in the US until we deal with the significant overlap with corporate structures and corporate culture. Most people’s conditioning to accept and defend fascism in this country starts there…so political reactions are already reflexive.

Antivaxxers like RFK Jr love to cherry pick policies from countries like Denmark so they can falsely justify reducing vaccines in the US, while ignoring context. If they really wanted to learn effective health policy from Denmark, they would be pushing for universal single-payer healthcare.

1). The US is in the middle of the worst flu season in a decade. 2). Pertussis cases are the highest they have been in 20 years. 3). Measles has rebounded and elimination status has been lost. RFK.Jr. has not recommended vaccination, instead he is aggressively rolling back vaccine policy.

We’re not going to make any progress on corporate overreach until your average person stops blaming the public for being “stupid” in the fact of gross corporate neglect… People aren’t stupid for getting hit by trains Or burned by coffee Or not “doing their research”

It’s not a good match for type A this year, so in addition to that, wear a mask in indoor public spaces. It will save people 3 weeks of hell and maybe even their life.

Viral infections can be unpredictable. So why roll the dice when you have access to a vaccine that makes a difference. In the US, flu vaccine is recommended for everyone not just select groups. I am on clinical service through to the new year. The hospitals are filled with flu. Help us help you.

I feel for this family and their loss. Flu is most severe in children <5, pregnant people, the elderly and people with co-morbid conditions which place them at higher risk for poor outcomes. But every year flu season I see my fair share of the "young and healthy" who end up in ICU for flu.
