Uber is one of the most destructive companies in modern American history. It clogs roads with empty cars, pioneers new forms of labor abuses that it enacts into law with deceptive ballot measures, and makes a small group of people wealthy by promising returns that will never happen.
This is so messed up.
Companies are using AI as plausible deniability to create a thin layer of "it wasn't us the computer did it" for any scam they want to pull.
Joni Ernst clarified her statements saying that the Dalmatians were going to die in 12 to 14 years anyway and now she has a fabulous winter coat.
At some point we have to actually start holding white voters accountable for their choices.
These are grown-ass adults.
They have so wholly rendered undocumented workers as invisible and devoid of personhood that those folks read less as migrants than as rented livestock.
And they don't expect the state to impede their ability to access that servant stock and its services.
And here when I say "servants" I mean the invisible workers who maintain their lifestyles.
They don't expect to have their farm or their manicure or their morning coffee disrupted.
They don't expect the landscaping or the hotel room to go untended.
I think it's more that they didn't expect people to deport THEIR servants
It would be really really nice to believe that evil has real, material consequences somewhere
The Senate passed a Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolution that would overturn the Federal Communications Commissionโs (FCC) decision to allow schools and libraries to use E-rate funds for Wi-Fi hotspot lending.

This sets an incredible precedent that will allow the state to regulate books and deny you the right to read freely in public libraries.

Joni Ernst fucked up, if we exploit the opportunity:
"This is the sort of thing that breaks through to people who don't follow politics. Share the town hall video, share the cemetery video with people in your networks and ask them to call both of their Senators"
Iโm convinced that part of why covid broke so many brains is that a bunch of middle & upper class white people were smacked in the face with the reality that covid doesnโt care about privilege and so they found *themselves* among the โcollateral damageโ which they believed wasnโt supposed to happen

Every Democratic candidate in 2028 should have publicly available, step-by-step plans for dismantling DOGE, abolishing ICE, reversing ALL of the Trump executive orders, and punishing ALL Americans who participated in the Gaza genocide.
None of them will.
A reminder that โAmerica Firstโ is a Ku Klux Klan slogan.

Sorry but if you can be "duped" into voting for this you shouldn't be allowed to make decisions for the rest of the country. Just no. You saw J6. You were here during covid. If you needed to be convinced to not vote for Trump in 2024 after his 2016-2020 stint then I don't know man
#OnThisDay in 1921, the Tulsa race massacre killed up to 300 & left 10,000 homeless. โThey tried to kill all the Black folks they could see,โ recalled George Monroe, who was 5 at the time. A 7,000-square-foot museum, Greenwood Rising, now honors that community.

This is how people talk when they arenโt a target of violence and discrimination.
They always have much more empathy for hateful people than the targets of hate.
If you truly believe theyโre reachable, that work is yours to do. But donโt ask the people harmed by their votes to do emotional labor for those who only care once the pain hits home. Some of us are done begging for humanity.
