WARNING: The Ellison family is about to own CBS News AND CNN. A judge just cleared the deal. Closing: days away. When one family controls what tens of millions watch, democracy loses a watchdog. Independent media isn't a luxury. It's your last line of defense.

When a machine takes a human job the company saves money but the community loses a taxpayer. Taxing automation or a robot tax to fund a Universal Basic Income or UBI provides the baseline security people need to survive the transition. @scottsantens.com explains this perfectly @lbc.co.uk 👇

A US-linked network of fake websites is promoting Alberta separatism to AI chatbots
The websites present crude, AI-generated slop disguised as the voice of real Albertans. But they're made in Florida — and they're not even targeting Albertans directly.

Fascism rarely introduces itself as tyranny. It arrives wrapped in fear, grievance, nostalgia, and promises of national restoration. Learn the language before the warning signs become the law. Democracy survives when people recognize the playbook—and resist it. #Resist

Corporations spend more than $1.5 billion a year on union-busting. That’s $1.5 billion they could have spent on higher wages, better benefits, and improving workplace safety. Remember: if they weren’t so scared of worker power, they wouldn’t fight so hard against unions.
