Way Back Machine is your friend. I don't visit sites directly anymore.

I don't use any proprietary apps. Only FOSS apps installed on my phone.

If Biden was the reason for her loss, she should have broke away from him when she had the chance. That would've been a breath of fresh air that clearly would've communicated to voters that this was not the same campaign.

Again I ask why support a strong border policy when that is something party voters do not support? Her trying to appeal to conservative voters was idiotic. There is no excuse for that.

Absolutely. They are all complicit.

Just enraging. I will say that there appears to have been a major shift the past week with a number of leaders (e.g. Obama, Hillary) in acknowledging the starvation crisis in Gaza. I'm guessing it happened after the two Israeli organizations came out and said it.

Still need more though. I need everyone to demand cutting off aid to Israel. We'll never see them admitting it's a genocide, however. They have to preserve their integrity.

I had no idea he was abducted. The guy is fearless and I'm glad he's back home safe.

It’s calling for coordinated collective action.

The "coordinated" part is what I have an issue with because who decides this coordination? Inevitably it will be the government, which means their agendas will flip widely depending on the party or the elected leader. It would be a chaotic mess going from one extreme to the other every four years or so.

Also the pandemic was proof that even scientists were not immune to being persuaded by politics. They despised Trump and his claim that covid came from a lab yet they refused to investigate until Biden came into power because at that time the pandemic situation was improving and people weren't paying attention. The CDC also eventually admitted that their vaccine boosters weren't necessary for the 18-49 age group when the omicron variant was spreading. Fauci was also culpable at various moments during the pandemic.

Millennials are entering their 40's. This is gen z shit

Shitstack. Everyone and their mother has a substack and a lot of it just low quality "articles." Meanwhile the company is trying to attract investors by claiming it's a tech company when it's really a mediocre media company.

They just care about branding, which makes sense considering they're corporate democrats. They're no different than executives at a Fortune 500 company.
