A Reasonable Human @futureric.bsky.social · 15/02/2025As the federal government crumbles around us, I ask myself again, what is the endgame for these maniacs? Even the theory of enrichment at the expense of everyone else doesn’t hold water. So I guess it must be destruction; simple, pure chaos-driven destruction. 040 0

A Reasonable Human @futureric.bsky.social · 07/02/2025In a recent poll by YouGov/The Economist, 59% of Republicans said they believed all of Trump’s executive orders were constitutional. Mind you, this includes the executive order rescinding birthright citizenship, a right specifically granted by the 14th Amendment. That is how far gone they are. 000 0
A Reasonable Human @futureric.bsky.social · 05/02/2025This is interesting. A Republican congressman, part of the house leadership no less, is offering office hours to his constituents to “receive help” with navigating federal agencies. Now why would his constituents need extra help figuring out how to get payments and services from the government? 010 0

A Reasonable Human @futureric.bsky.social · 23/01/2025In the new America, common political and religious words and phrases are completely detached from common understanding. For example, freedom of speech means freedom of rich white men to do and say whatever they want, while everyone else is punished for calling out said rich white men. 050 0
A Reasonable Human @futureric.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Throughout history one of the most profound mistakes made by poor and middle class people (in American historically white and male) is to assume they have more in common with wealthy people like Trump and Musk than with everyone else. They don’t. And it’s obvious they don’t to everyone except them 120 0
