Between 1979–2019, top pay (90th pct.) rose 53%, middle rose 23%, bottom (10th pct.) rose 17%. (Hourly productivity climbed 73%.)
Since 2019, gains at the bottom reversed 1/3 of this rise in pay inequality. But much more needs to be done!

.@BernieSanders: “We need Abdul El-Sayed in the Senate.”
CONFIRMED: This moron wrote "loser" on their own cup.
Never trust a conservative influencer.
A patron went to @Starbucks this morning and ordered Charlie Kirk’s favorite drink — Mint Majesty with honey.
When their cup came back, it was marked with the word “loser :)” across it.
No customer should ever be mocked or insulted because of what they order or what they believe. This is blatant bias, unprofessional, and unacceptable.
👉 Call Starbucks out. Demand accountability.
👉 Share this story. Don’t let corporations get away with politically driven harassment.
We deserve better.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Starbucks said security footage does not show workers writing on the cup, and that it appeared "to have been added after the beverage was handed off, likely by someone else"

I love this fascist reply guy, always telling me good things are Jewish
Today I learned that it's Jewish to hate lying

Do I get Honorary Jew status if enough Nazis call me one?

It's genuinely pathetic that the bankers have shown more spine against American fascism than the big unions
We need militant rank & file campaigns in every union, we need to prepare for the 2028 UAW general strike

"Biden prosecuted a cute little grandma for praying outside am abortion clinic"
She broke in and assaulted a nurse?
This is one of the funnier Juche cope lines
Yes, they abolished formal taxes. Instead, they just raise the markup on goods sold in state stores to make up the difference
So "abolished taxes" means "replaced income taxes with sales taxes", like Republicans want to do

I will defend North Korea here: Using a weakly regressive tax to fund a strongly progressive welfare state is often net progressive.
For example, if you used VAT & flat payroll taxes to fund UBI, and it'd be MORE progressive than the status quo. xitter.cf/IdiditagainR4D/status/…

Murray and most of race twitter has apparently been fooled by this completely fabricated analysis purporting to show African ancestry is associated with IQ. People lie on twitter all the time, but this is both more revealing and more disturbing than usual. A 🧵

.@meagankday and I are back in Jacobin magazine today with a followup, now that (as we predicted in the first article) the Right is using Kirk's murder as a pretext for crackdowns on free speech:
Over the past week since the horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk, we’ve watched conservatives unabashedly take ownership of “cancel culture” and crack down on free speech right before our eyes. jacobin.com/2025/09/kirk-ass…
"We need mass deportations to keep Americans safe from drugs!"
Meanwhile, the price of street cocaine is DOWN because Donald Trump pulled all the drug trafficking inspectors over to "kidnap brown people" duty
Never forget: Fascists are both evil and incompetent

Yes, the war in Gaza is a genocide.

I am not going to compromise my values. I am not going to speak in platitudes or shy away from the truth. And I certainly am not going to throw immigrants or trans kids under the bus because some consultant told me it polls really well with Republicans.
