The future: w/o rent, mortgages, & debt; and we must forgo policy dreams & instead organize our resources. The good news is that with a properly organized front the top-heavy opposition can be toppled. Fīat jūstitia ruat cælum substack.com/@ourmanmatt

Social media: the gathering place for people who spent years being made to feel unintelligent/dismissed. For some, it serves as an emporium of revenge, offering validation, influence,a platform to strike back. Also provides insight into how resentment evolves into escalating conflict & intolerance.

Just off the phone w Marist Polling, via a landline. (i'm one of those people) 4 Ohio's Nov elections. i was asked the Do you approve of Donald Trump? question. Where i implored the pollster to change everybody's answer to "i never heard of Donald Trump." because i would like to see the response.

The vast majority hate extraction economics, bc they're on the wrong side. However, they love the extraction model 4 their investments. When someone comes along & proposes a no extraction model, they see it as a threat to the snuggly thumb they exist under, that is reliable & familiar (status quo).

Dating advice: i hope, you're not caught up in chasing vibes. For the vast majority of us, our instincts are terrible and not to be relied upon.

republicans have resorted to begging for a second chance. For some reason, republicans won't tell us what they'll do to fix things, nor will they make material changes to what is happening now. All republicans are offering is, "Trust me, bro."

If only people would wake up to the reality that housing, healthcare, food, and more can be had for 50 cents on the dollar (or less); all of it, without changing a single policy, or relying on charity, or having to beg from the government.

image reads, "How do you do, my fellow Gen Z?"

image is taken from the 30 Rock episode "The Tuxedo Begins" (season six, episode 8). In the show, actor Steve Buscemi plays Lenny Wosniak, a private detective hired as a strike buster. Now a popular meme.

Zohran Mamdani isn't doing anything magical. He's just a competent & dutiful public servant. He's not enacting socialism, merely an array of policies than can be found all over the US.

Humans must respect ecological systems. A monoculture tree plantation isn’t sustainable. Without a vast diversity of native plant species & fungus to support the entire animal food chain. So, animals can defecate & deposit carrion deep into the forests, re-establishing mineral cycles.

US’s current healthcare system is broken, &Medicare4All is a band aid that does not solve underlying problems w the healthcare system. Unless you intend to remove the profit motive from the entirety of the healthcare vertical supply chain, you’re not serious about the US’s healthcare cost crisis.

Hill: Rental properties should never have been classified as affordable housing. Paying for housing without accruing an equity stake, is an extraction model. Landlords take; they don’t earn.

Why does ICE deport people to a country that they are not from? Foreign aid that doesn’t look like foreign aid. To what end? Advancement of a right-wing capitalist agenda that none of us (especially Congressional Democrats) are privy to the details.

Capitalists merely pool money to make more money. That's it. Capitalism has no higher calling, there aren't invisible forces doing good, and there isn't a mandate to improve people's lives.

Every Democrat in 'Blue" states should be using this data in their political advertisements.
Chart title: trump has denied most disaster requests from Democratic-led states 

Subtitle: Presidential approval rates for disaster requests from Democratic-led and republican-led states

Data range from the Reagan to the second time trump is in the White House

(bottom) Note: States classified by party when governor and senators at time of request all belong to the same party.

Animal welfare is the next territory republicans are right coding. A continuation of a decades long trend to capture longstanding Left-leaning ideological positions. Joining ranks w free speech & environmentalism, for the media to champion republicans, no matter how hollow their efforts really are.

If every Democrat in Con. were AOC, nothing changes. bc republicans control gov. If every Dem in Con. were AOC & Dems held a super majority of Con,, & Democrats controlled the White House, net result of the Democratic Party’s time in power will have meant nothing once republicans return to power.

Food is one facet of poverty. Ending poverty means unburdening folks from life's encumbrances. Unfortunately, ending poverty won't be achieved by lobbying for policy change. i believe chasing policy is a waste of time, money, and effort; & folks need all those resources to remain with themselves.
