Reposted by Helen AllenAllison Gill @muellershewrote.com · 22/12/2024As usual, @aoc.bsky.social speaks the truth. The government and the corporate media are now wholly owned subsidiaries of oligarchs. I’d like to add that our Supreme Court is, too, and that’s why Trump didn’t face trial for J6 prior to the election. 643284747
Helen Allen @helenallen.bsky.social · 06/12/2024I have never understood the totally illogical fear that Republicans have of the S word. Perhaps it's the lack of or misleading political history taught in schools. 010

Helen Allen @helenallen.bsky.social · 30/11/2024A mere 4 Republicans can change a vote in the Democrat direction. Not a landslide. Trump, Johnson and Elon should be worried about trying to get radical legislation through...Two years of that should see approval ratings plummet... 021
Helen Allen @helenallen.bsky.social · 29/11/2024Like me, these guys used to turn to Twitter for news as it happens and respectful conversations. Now it's a cesspit of anger and negativity. Life is too short... 020

Helen Allen @helenallen.bsky.social · 13/11/2024Red flag that I needed to leave Twitter was when I realized that when I was logged on, I was holding my breath! Still need to chill though.

Helen Allen @helenallen.bsky.social · 12/11/2024Well, I can't hack any more negativity and Musk algorithms, so just taking it slowly here. I hope I can get some interesting content and find likeminded humans. I write, I run, I'm Australian but have spent much of my time and lived in New York.
