It turned out that things like morals, empathy and dignity are like trees---they take decades to grow. They can also be clear cut just like trees: when ppl are doused daily with fear, bigotry and hate. *Please credit work of artists whose work you post!

I'm serious when I say I've lost track of all the recent revelations of literal Nazis working in high-level positions in Republican congressional campaigns and I would very much appreciate a journalist who took the time to detail as many of them as can fit into an article.

Just another day for snake oil chiroquacks to make a buck off of ppl over on Meta. Early on in Covid we watched a plethora of chiros across our region deny existence of Covid and discourage ppl from masking or getting vaccinations. So tired of the erosion of public health via SM.

When it comes to Trump’s money laundering, this is just the tip of the iceberg. The Trump Soho laundered Russian mob money. Trump Panama laundered drug cartel money. Trump Azerbaijan laundered Iranian Revolutionary Guard money. Florida real estate was used to launder Russian oligarch money.
