We're being told that if we sacrifice the rights of some people, then the rest of us get to keep our rights. We all know that's some BS.

Jenifer Lewis said it best: 35.9 million people sat out 2024, and we don’t let that shit happen again. Not this time. Not with 90 days on the clock and everything on the line. Speak out, knock louder, make it impossible to ignore. It’s on all of us to flip it all blue. #BlueWaveIn90Days

Make no mistake, they are the targets. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that when you make it harder and harder for parents to qualify for SNAP, the kids suffer the consequences. GOP lawmakers knew exactly what they were doing.

Here's the serious bit for anyone who'd rather skip the 4000 words of jokes
Because the truth is, tech doesn't have an image problem. It doesn't have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What's wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn't successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What's wrong is that he's trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that's designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn't that you haven't told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them. (
There are things in the world that are more important than money. The fact that you seem not to believe this, that you seem to think any motive beyond ruthless acquisitiveness is fake, dishonest, or childish, is the heart of your problem. Your attitude is not by any means unique to tech, but the

Here’s my position on whether you buy my book from Amazon. I would strongly prefer you don’t! First of all, the price on Bookshop is exactly the same right now (mod shipping). Libro will give you the same audio and ownership of the files! Kobo ebooks and readers are great!

This is how you do it, legacy press. If a politician lies and you know he/she is, say it. Her question is factual, respectful, and non-partisan. Americans want reporters who will ask the hard questions and report the truth. Not stenographers who will repeat the lies hoping for a sit-down.
