Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 11/10/2026It is IRS code for 501(c)(3)s. So not exactly a "law", and not enforced in most cases, it would appear. It should be imo. Why should taxpayers subsidize political activities? 120
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 11/10/2026On the ground that participating in electoral matters, especially giving money to a campaign or ad campaign for a ballot initiative is a violation of the terms of tax exemption. It isn't rhetorical. It's the law. Doubt it would ever happen, but it should. 170
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Revoke their tax excempt status permanantly. It should have been when they pumped money into California against same sex marraige. 1140
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Rape is just white collar crime to these people- meaning it shouldnt be prosecuted, unless it's one of their daughters. 2120
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 01/10/2026No actual journalist is allowed anywhere near him, only corporate tools. 010
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 24/09/2026The credential process already excludes independent journalists. Only corporate tools have been allowed access for decades. Funny how suddenly people care about a free press. 001
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Good points and the crack comparison is apt. I'm sure it'll be illegal to use AI deepfakes to mock elected officials and the ruling class soon anyway. 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Using the tools of the ruling class against them? IDK, didnt the aristocrisy in France invent the guillotine? There is a certain irony to it. 100
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 18/09/2026The strategy was always to exhaust the working class into being too tired and confused to effectively revolt. This last two years is an acceleration of that strategy. Let's not allow it to work. Refuse to obey. 031
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 17/09/2026The question is whether Dems will actually become an opposition party for once or just continue to be fascist-lite. He may have nothing much to worry about. 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 17/09/2026"We should reform Big Brother and make it nicer." -Shit only a person with a cop in their head would say. 010
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 14/09/2026And this is why there shouldnt be billioniares. Who needs government censorship when the oligarchs can just ban people from media and venues? 020
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 10/09/2026They gripe when have to pay any taxes. They've never had to pay too much in all of history. 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 09/09/2026The vast majority of union workers are public workers and huge chunk of that is cops. My guess is close to 40% in law enforcement, which is also the amount of cops that have commited domestic abuse. 020
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Repealing the Taft Hartley act would be a good start, which can only happen after we put an end to legalized corruption in all forms. 021
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 09/09/2026That tracksthehardtimes.netConservative Religious Parents Who Banned Harry Potter Books in the 2000s Now Wholeheartedly Embrace J.K. RowlingSTAUNTON, Va. — Local board members at Staunton’s Green Hills of Grace Church are vocally championing J.K. Rowling, despite enforcing a household... Get the full story 010
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 08/09/2026You could get the same people to also sign a petition that outlaws human decency. 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Glad to see corruption not skipping a generation. I guess? 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Yes. This article is a great primer for the book. People need to understand what's happening. 020
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 04/09/2026My comment was not meant as a a jab. Just recommending his book. Yeah, everyone should know what these tech-fascists are planning. It's all got 1930 Germany vibes. 020
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Not a shocker if you've read The Nerd Reich by @gilduran.com yet. 110
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 03/09/2026If you get enough centrists to flood the primary that coordinate to drop oit before super tuesday and then drop some manufactured controversy against the progressive, you can force voters to pick your candidate. Seen this before with Bernie and Biden. 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Oh, it gets scarier. About halfway through and between that and the attack on mail in ballots going on it's a terrifying reality to be living in. 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 02/09/2026It's a lot like in your book in SF with the blues being cast as subhuman and not allowed in corporate fascist neighborhoods. Othering is standard playbook for these people. There has to be subhumans if there is a master race. 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 01/09/2026When you know you can't win in fair elections but you're an authoritarian, anti-democratic buffoon, what else can you do but tell the big lie repeatedly until enough other buffoons believe it? 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Legal bribery is only one mechanism of corruption in our system. It's the most obvious one, but there are so many ways democracy is subverted. To oversimplify the systemic corruption and destruction of democratic institutions that hold those in power to account is a mistake. 010
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 28/08/2026What consequences are those? Who will enforce them? Does anyone in power every really pay for corruption or abuse of power? 010
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Should disqualify Jefferies from any leadership position. 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Your prose is much better than hers. IE complete sentences, terse style, puntuation, and zero punching down. But, I'm only on page 46 so far... 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Do it in a way that provides a guide to other municipalities and juristictions. This should spread like a subterranean fire across the county. 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Fear is best weapon authoritarians have in their arsenal. This is especially true of fascism, which no distinct ideology, only power. 010
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Mine should be here tomorrow! It's been a while since I've so eagerly awaited a book release. 020
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Hope it backfires. Looking forward to the book and hearing you talk on not banned podcasts and programs like Dystopia Now where I first heard about your book. Hope it's a best seller! 020
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 14/08/2026The US has a long history of doing far worse than funding fascist think tanks in Latin America and other places around the world. It is interesting that it isnt a bloody coup or death squads and only think tanks when it's Europe though. 010
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Reagan intentionally delayed a hostage deal with Iran until after the election. Should have gone to prison for that. 010
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Clearly the plan is to privatize disaster relief efforts to award no bid contracts to incompetant cronies that will skin whatever profits they can from those in need. Maybe they'll team up with private prisons and militias to round up any one that dissents too. Win win for kakistocracy. 000
Gregory Walker @gwalk70.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Thank you EFF for being the only one raising awarness about this draconian insanity I've seen. 010
