Any sweeping systemic change you want to make in the United States has to begin with adding seats to the Supreme Court in 2029. No major reform bill will survive the current court. No civil rights law, no anti-corruption law, no wealth tax, nothing.
ICE is going to get more desperate to find black and brown people to detain and deport It’s about making America whiter That’s the goal It’s disgusting and it needs to be called out
I could handle this shit so much easier if they weren't all dumb as rocks.

The MAGA billionaires who own corporate media want you to keep fighting with each other over stupid bullshit so they never have to pay taxes. It’s not about left vs. right or left vs. center. It’s about the bottom vs. the top.
