I'm not so much pessimistic about technology. I'm pessimistic about capitalism + technology because nothing amplifies oppression like technology.

Soon all children will get the same shitty Christian education I received in school. I spent the first 2 years of college (state school luckily) unlearning all the bullshit they taught me. Such a waste of time.

Trump campaigned on *replacing* income tax with tariffs. He promised to replace income tax, abolish tax on tips and overtime, abolish tax on social security, and recently, to abolish *all* taxes on incomes under $150k. None of that happened. Instead, we have all those taxes AND massive tariffs.

Netanyahu's illegal war has killed 50,000 Palestinians. Now, Trump wants to force out 2 million more to build a billionaire's playground in Gaza. That is ethnic cleansing — and it’s a war crime. Next week, I will force votes to block $8.8 billion in new arms sales to Israel.

A group of settlers just lynched Hamdan Ballal, co director of our film no other land. They beat him and he has injuries in his head and stomach, bleeding. Soldiers invaded the ambulance he called, and took him. No sign of him since.
