My column on how capital becomes a death cult. Faced with a choice between profit and human life, the radical right chooses profit. Then it tries to persuade us that mass death is what we want. It's the new phase of climate denial: accept your fate, earthlings. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Murderous heat, an endangered food supply, decimated landscapes: embrace the Mediterranean life | George Monbiot
As climate disaster stares us in the face, the radical right says ‘Embrace the Mediterranean life’. Embrace death, more like it, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Leftists winning popular elections is very divisive. How are you supposed to unify a country with this sort of thing. I ask you.
Primaries use the same voting infrastructure and procedures as the general election where are the claims the primaries were rigged
I suppose you would probably believe that if you had made billions of dollars in the past 18 months
Trump: "Then they say, 'On the economy, Trump is at 42%.' I shouldn't be at 42%. We have the greatest economy maybe in the history of the world."
Republicans might have the vote, but Democrats need to make it as painful and costly as possible.

RFK Jr said these words today on national television "There were ICUs that were empty all over the country including in New York at the height (of the pandemic)" hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha You are a fucking idiot hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha <sobs silently>
Shocked that the latest Iran deal that only existed in the mind of a geriatric drug addict who spent the weekend golfing at his private NJ resort on land once owned by John DeLorean & where keeps goats to avoid paying property taxes (and where he buried wife #1) has fallen apart.
All of the banks that did business with Trump & his kids knew he was laundering money for decades. It was one of the worst kept secrets in NYC. Right behind his sexual predation & Melania’s former occupation. Trump exists because of greed & criminality and not only his own.

“Capital One on Friday pushed back on a Trump Organization lawsuit that claims the company was a victim of ‘woke debanking’, by releasing documents showing the bank closed 300 Trump Organization accounts in 2021 only after review by their anti-money laundering experts.”
Imagine thinking so little of yourself that you just let this half sentient rotten potato talk to you like this. I don't care if he's president, have some self respect.
Trump says Jeanine Pirro "choked" and then snaps at a reporter who asks if her job is safe: "Don't ever talk again"
Co-host of Charlie Kirk’s podcast whose book was blurbed by DJT, Jr and JD Vance. Don’t call them fascists though.
Weird how Jack’s guy brought us both exploding grocery prices and touched off a war in the Middle East, and yet Jack is still 100% on the Trump train. It’s almost as if he believes in nothing other than proximity to power.
Sick and tired of journalists asking politicians how they *feel* about the Bad Thing that just happened. Ask them what they're going to *do* about it!
My thoughts on Bluesky not being welcoming to Republicans is Trump blocks disaster relief to states voting blue, & is also legally codifying anyone who opposes him as a terrorist deserving violence, & his kidnapping brute gangs terrorize the streets, & there's much more but I'm out of characters
"Bluesky is a political echo chamber" okay but I'm mostly here to chat with fun internet people and post art and make jokes, I cannot stress how much I don't care

Imagine that, like so many Americans, you’re struggling to decide whether to buy food or insulin-because you can’t afford both And the president, instead of proposing a plan to help you-or showing even the remotest bit of empathy-only talks about his vanity construction projects instead
Trump: "Now we have a big decision to make. Do we take the pavers that are red -- the red, brick pavers -- and do we change them into a granite?"
Tons of Americans follow no news at all. Casual convos you have in your daily life can move mountains. Drop a truth bomb, and then ask if they're registered to vote. 🗣️ Ready, set, START TALKING!

And this is just a harbinger of December's cuts. I'll lose the Medicaid subsidy that pays my Medicare Part B premium ($202.90/mo). My VA pension is also being cut. Next year, I'll be eating weeds.

If I tell a blind man that it's safe to cross the street when I can see a bus is coming & he is killed, I will be arrested, & rightfully so. If I tell an ignorant man not to get vaccinated because vaccines are deadly, & they die of a preventable disease, I'm not arrested. What's the distinction?
