What Thiel is saying about tax havens = what Altman is saying about copyright:

"I can't be rich unless you let me steal from you."

This is how Broligarchs differ from oligarchs of yore: the latter tried to hide their thievery; the Broligarchs trumpet their entitlement to steal as a natural right.

I recently sat down with three leaders who are part of the @obamafoundation.bsky.social's alumni network to hear more about their work to strengthen democracy in Hungary and Poland. They’re an example for us all. Take a look:

I hope you realize that they're attacking PBS and NPR because they're among the few national media outlets not totally beholden billionaire ownership.

We also wrote over 4 months ago to the Brighton Centre and begged them to cancel hosting a de facto genocidal hate movement that wraps itself in the camouflage of feminism.

Ohohoho. It's *happening* 😊

Because it's going to happen again.

Laser will back it off for 2-3 days while you recover and then it will come back again.

It's a bit of a trip, and surprising when you realize that what you wear doesn't matter as much as you thought!

Nice milestone, Tori! ❤

Shithole country 👇
In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.
She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.
This is not about immigration enforcement.
It's about terrorizing Americans.

Deeply cynical hypocrisy from Starmer's obsessively anti-Trans+ Labour Government

"The UK is unwavering in its commitment to the protection and promotion of human rights for all, including lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and other LGBT+ individuals

We are deeply concerned...

My 13yo’s idea for the imbalance of wealth is to cap accumulation at $100m and anything else has to go into a general fund to house, feed, and provide medical care to anyone in need.
Interesting.
