Just enforce liability law- make the companies pay for IP and copyright theft; and prosecute for hacking. It's not the AI that's hacking; it's a company running an AI program that does what it is programmed to do. Don't let them pretend it's a separate intelligence.

I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

"Democrats couldn't fix everything in 2 years despite Republicans blocking everything they tried, the president vetoing everything that passed, and an executive branch and court system actively sabotaging them. Time to vote for Republicans!"

Trump’s and his real base of support — billionaires, Big Oil, Big Tech, defense contractors, & Wall Street — are looting the country at an unbelievable rate. They are pumping money into the Nov 3 midterms because this election may limit what they can get away with moving forward. Know the stakes.

Talking Andrew Johnson in 8th grade today. One of the kids asked me what I thought should have happened to all the confederate leaders. From the look on their faces, They were not expecting “execute every single one of them. They were bigots and traitors”

It’s pretty blackpilling that Republicans are actively trying their best to destroy the world and the biggest media outlets in the U.S. (in some cases owned by said Republicans) are making shit up about progressives instead of covering it. We need to replace that whole media ecosystem

Any sweeping systemic change you want to make in the United States has to begin with adding seats to the Supreme Court in 2029. No major reform bill will survive the current court. No civil rights law, no anti-corruption law, no wealth tax, nothing.

"data centers will boost local economies" aside from the moral implications of AI data centers & the skyrocketing energy costs that accompany them, plenty of industries prop up local economies: private prisons for example. I think those should be shut down too!

Starbucks Workers United @sbworkersunited.org · 25/08/2026
🚨BREAKING: Our union of over 12,000 baristas are officially calling for a Starbucks boycott. Read this statement penned by Starbucks workers on why a boycott from ALL customers, allies, and organizations is necessary to fight back against corporate greed:
BOYCOTT STARBUCKS is written inside a zig-zaggy speech bubble against crumbled paper. Beside it are the Starbucks Workers United logo and an image of a coffee cup being poured out.We, the 12,000 and growing members of Starbucks Workers United, call on everyone who stands with working people to boycott Starbucks until they finalize a contract with union baristas and stop union-busting.
What we’re fighting for is simple: a minimum $17/hr wage, enough hours to live on, better staffing in our stores, and basic workplace protections. Every year, our living costs rise but our wages don’t keep up – a growing pressure many American workers are feeling as corporate greed accelerates unchecked in our country. 
Starbucks is banking on customers' blind loyalty to the integrity and values this company once stood for in order to keep squeezing them for profits. At a time when working-class people across the country are struggling in a challenging economy, it is no longer possible to be both a Starbucks customer and in support of workers; choosing to spend money at Starbucks is choosing a law breaking corporation over the baristas who make your coffee everyday exactly as you ask for it.
Starbucks has violated U.S. labor law more than any other company in modern history–the NLRB and its judges have found that Starbucks committed hundreds of labor violations and there are currently more than 550 unresolved unfair labor practice charges still pending against the company. Instead of finalizing a fair and reasonable union contract, Starbucks has repeatedly demonstrated a lack of care for the workers who fuel the company’s profits by wasting millions of dollars on AI and technology that doesn’t work, launching countless gimmicky drinks designed to distract from real problems, and inventing pointless policies that do nothing but make our jobs harder. 
This ongoing, irrational behavior by Starbucks and its refusal to settle a fair union contract with workers leaves us with no other choice than to call for a boycott. We know when working people stand up together, we win. 
No Contract? No Coffee.

So, it’s not a conspiracy, and you are not imagining it. The biggest and wealthiest tech leaders are genuine fascists. They are leading an active and intentional systematic attack on labor. And they have radicalized each other while sidelining or removing the remaining decent execs in the industry.
