White men will get more upset about people calling the "monster" Frankenstein than at situations like what happened at Cornell. If y'all put half the energy into stuff that matters instead of arguing about stupid shit, we'd be in such a better place.

Shame desperately needs to become part of the political lexicon in the USA so badly The right wing is utterly shameless at this point Senator Schmitt would have resigned in embarrassment in the 1950s

Talarico isn't in the pocket of tech bros, crypto bros, or data center bros. Talarico doesn't have elite donors telling him what to say or how to vote. He'll help us Texans have clean air and water and shut down these data centers. Vote Talarico. 🔥❤️💙🔥❤️💙🔥❤️💙
