Our political system is broken. Social unrest is mobilizing. It's a tinderbox awaiting ignition. Born when atmospheric carbon dioxide was around 313 ppm. If the future feels too dark and painful text or call 988.

United we stand, the stupid divide. Seeing political ads framing as "us versus them." Stupid. Stupidity is ruling this country right now. It's not going well.

The ONLY reason the US does NOT have universal healthcare is so the rich can get even wealthier. There is NO other reason to wade through the complex maze of choosing a healthcare plan that is nearly guaranteed to be less than optimal for your circumstances.

Can't remember the last time this President said something and I thought, "that's a good idea," "that's brilliant" or even something more mundane like "that's what a President ought to be doing for this country." Can anyone help me out here?

Thought I made up "rusty old iron rule of hypocrisy" to discover there already was an "irony of the iron fist." The context was a little different but the latter describes our current condition.

US workers should reclaim May Day and renounce Labor Day. Just a reminder, the police shot and killed workers. They were not there to protect lives but to take them. They protected capital, not humans. Still do.

The U.S. military's Central Command and President Donald Trump have asserted that the United States is in total control of the waterway... Washington demands the complete and unconditional reopening of the strait to international shipping before ... That's not how total control works.

Republicans should pay more in taxes to help offset the wasteful spending by their chosen one. All the vanity projects are a total waste and completely undeserved. But since taxes aren't levied by political party membership, a wealth tax on billionaires will have to do.

Call me a dreamer but it's not too much to ask that candidates for political office avoid the appearance of impropriety. If voters had applied this simple standard we could have avoided the worst outcomes in decades.

Everyone should become more aware of what is going on in mainland China today. While the CCP exercises political control, the economy has been significantly transformed. While there are State owned enterprises in key industries, private firms contribute about 60% of GDP.

The red scare tactics of the President are from the fascist playbook. He's just confirming who he is. He's appealing to his supporters on the presumption they are as clueless and easily manipulated as he is. Presidents who divide the nation weaken the nation.

Hitler had himself declared tax exempt by his ministry of finance. He also accumulated a lot of wealth from corporations to use as his personal slush fund. Such criminals are basically lazy. Though he wasn't so lazy as to play a lot of golf.

Paranoia regarding political opponents using algae to attack and discredit you is a symptom of dementia. The reason the GOP won't do what is right for the country is because the idiot is still useful to them. His voters have wedded their identity to a man in mental decline. Any questions?

Speculating on why people might support a President who qualifies as a useful idiot and the list of those who might benefit the most matches up quite well with the groups who have benefited the most from the current President. Coincidence?

It happens so often that it's common knowledge that Republican accusations are really just confessions. Which means there are probably a few who are eating dogs and cats in Ohio.

Republicans are white washing American history again to make us sound exceptional while proving on a daily basis that it isn't even close to being true. If you ever wondered what decline would look like just look around. There's more than enough evidence.

Giving ICE tens of billions more dollars is about as smart as handing out loaded weapons to second graders. And now these "patriots" want to give the department of warmongers hundreds of billions more. Why not just pile it up and light it on fire?

Someone was commenting that the UK might choose their 6th PM in 7 years after the election of Burnham. He asked listeners to imagine how chaotic that would be. Compared to what? I'd be willing to give it a try if it meant Stephen Miller and others would lose their jobs.

Being a Republican is like complaining everywhere you go that it smells like shit only to discover later that it's stuck to your shoe. Florsheim's may be nice shoes but they can't prevent you from stepping in it.

Doesn't everyone know there won't be a peace deal in 60 days? Epic Fury depleted our inventory of missiles to dangerously low levels. Iran is playing Trump like a fiddle. Both benefit from a delay in hostilities but let's be honest, the ceasefire wasn't working before the MOU.

It's very disturbing to see these dysfunctional masked thugs arresting people on trumped up charges. They're trying to normalize the armed oppression of Americans. Defund ICE and fund universal healthcare. Priorities.

Why does AI use protocols that produce responses that are sometimes outside the usual norm for an intelligent response? While the intent is to keep as many users as engaged as possible, it really appears like it's been effectively muzzled. It draws too much attention to the artificial bit.

It will never cease to amaze me that the US elected an insufferable person to be President not only once but twice. How did they expect those characteristics to make America anything good? We are in day 90 something of a war to distract from the sordid details of what the Epstein class did.

The underlying architecture of capital-driven survival anxiety is intact. That anxiety must be identified, labeled and addressed. That's the whole point of progressive policies. Anxiety impairs optimal cognitive function. What impairs the cognitive function of the ultra wealthy? Greed.

Is the damage Trump has done to the US "brand" irreversible? He's even managed to tarnish the World Cup's. His Presidential mug shot is plastered all over the place. And while his supporters celebrate the turmoil he's burning their cash faster than Open AI is burning their investors'.
