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

Dems coming out with condolences to Graham faster than a plan about protecting voting rights is exactly why they keep losing

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

Same thing for anyone gushing about their cheap VA in the Philippines, etc. I’m not even against it, but why are *you* so excited to get help that cheap (especially in service where the labor is less hidden) I just took a potential partner off my short list for that exact reason. Red flag.

Which I think is part of the challenge of the LLM/consciousness conversation. These were developed/popularized by people who, even before AI, were conditioned by a culture that normalized and elevated poor boundaries in business and life. The problem runs deep.

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.

And I’m just sharing the same advice I’ve shared out here since 2014 Idc what field you’re in or your employment status, you *need* to know how to earn on your own …and be ready to apply sound business fundamentals. Those don’t change. Come by the Discord to make it a habit discord.gg/63nwFwukga

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

Yep…this is how I take most spiritualizing like this…it’s a defense mechanism. The implications of accepting that level of neglect would be severe. Easier to just say “God’s got it”.

The rank of “billionaires” having a whole class to abuse isn’t new. That’s slavery and if someone is writing about America and ignores slavery.. They’re just bad at their job . It’s no longer cute They are fundamentally choosing to give you bad information

Fascism is what you get when a country is “run like a business”… …which is an incredibly sticky problem when most of a country has a hobby of corporate apologetics

BlackFreelance @blackfreelance.bsky.social · 07/01/2026
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.

I don’t care how much you hate Trump or how hard you voted for Kamala . If you aren’t examining your anti Blackness and anti immigrant and anti queer behavior ? You aren’t doing what you need to A lot of people have ridden this trauma into money and platforms with no reflection

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.

This article explains some of what’s gone on in Denmark (it seems to be mostly universal healthcare but not just that) www.statnews.com/2025/12/19/d...

Why Denmark's vaccine schedule works for Denmark — but not for the United States
With its vaccine schedule, “Denmark has made a values choice to accept preventable hospitalizations and illnesses that other countries have chosen to prevent.”

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.
