Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@mayor.nyc.gov · 2w agoIf it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.
"There is one type of rare, gargantuan, towering lie that makes all the other mass lies throughout human history seem like frightened, scurrying, little adorable fibs. This massive lie can best be summed up as 'when it comes to climate change... we have more time.'" - @ghostpanther.bsky.social
The Gargantuan Lie That is Collapsing The World’s Climate
