Talarico: "Billionaires are pouring an unprecedented amount of money into Texas to try to buy this Senate seat ... they are hoping that Texans will care more about these manufactured culture wars than actual wars. They're hoping Texans will care more about pronouns than prices. But I think Texans see through this distraction."

On September 15, 2001, Balbir Singh Sodhi was planting flowers outside his Arizona gas station when Frank Roque pulled up and fatally shot him. Roque wanted revenge for 9/11 and mistook Sodhi, a Sikh man, for a Muslim because of his turban.
Sodhi became the first person killed in a post-9/11 retaliatory hate crime, marking the beginning of a devastating wave of violence against Muslims, Sikhs, Arabs, South Asians, and other brown Americans.

Of course they don’t want to fix the lead pipes: who will vote Republican in the future if they remove the lead poisoning?
🚨 Republican representatives have now slashed $125 million in funding to replace toxic lead water pipes.

The evil telepaths narrative is ironic when Strange and Peter decided - without anyones consent - it was ok to mind wipe people across the multiverse for Peter’s benefit, robbing MJ and others of their agency. Two men and magic. And it wasn’t even Strange’s first time casting it.

Never forget all of the union workers brutally beaten and murdered by police and strikebreakers, because they don’t teach us about that in our schools.

In 1882, 10,000 workers marched up Broadway in the first-ever Labor Day parade. Led by democratic socialists and organized by New York’s unions, they rallied the movement that went on to win us weekends, safety standards, overtime pay, a minimum wage, and social security.
None of those victories were guaranteed. And none are permanent.
We created the first-in-the-nation Office of Worker Power to put the full weight of City Hall behind the people who keep New York running. On Labor Day, we honor the workers who came before us by fighting for the workers who come next.
Happy Labor Day, New York. The future of worker power is ours to build. Learn more at nyc.gov/workerpower.

Because wealth accumulation requires a certain level of cruelty. And most smart people are not cruel. For example, let's say I run a business, and I know that in order for it to make me a millionaire, I need to pay my workers 3k p/m. As a smart person, I know that 3k p/m is nowhere near enough for someone to live comfortably on. The only question that remains is whether I care or not.

if you wait for the perfect person with zero hypocritical aspects of their identity to do good political acts in public, we will all d*e waiting for that person to appear.
pop stars expressing politics that put them at odds with the powers that be is actually a net positive
