Plausible take to consider.

“The strikes and seizures serve less to secure resources than to justify emergency powers, sideline Congress and expand presidential authority at home.”

Venezuela’s crisis is not an oil grab but a power grab
Trump has manufactured the Venezuela crisis, not to grab more oil but to expand his executive power.

A very clinical way to talk about life under a horribly decaying rogue mafia state.

"When environments change rapidly or become hostile, previously healthy organisms die - not because they were defective, but because the environment became incompatible."

The path to our empowerment includes defunding the oligarchy.

To do that we must disengage.

- Reduce consumption esp chains
- Withdraw data from BigTech.

We're heading into socioeconomic chaos. Ours leaders are bought, silenced or asleep.

Time to shut this nonsense down.

Please do not consent to this. Please. I don't care if you have nothing to hide. You will be setting a precedent that will inevitably be used to surveil and harm vulnerable people.
It's not just social media. Looks like visitors to the US from Europe and other countries that are part of the visa waiver program will have to submit an enormous amount of data about themselves and their families, including DNA, if proposed new rules are accepted

The isolationist right was never isolationist. They just wanted to shun alliances and international law while embarking on their own bizarre imperial adventures.
"The administration genuinely seems to believe it can pull back from the world stage yet somehow still tell the rest of the world what to do. And it has a very firm idea of what it wants Europe to do, which is 'be as racist and xenophobic as Donald Trump.'" — @snipy.bsky.social
We're the baddies now. Our new Security Strategy shows it.
It's a gift to the Kremlin and a middle finger to our erstwhile allies.

What’s at stake in the fight between Netflix and Paramount for Warner Bros? The power of a wannabe tyrant to interfere in any business transaction he wishes, to enlarge his own power and stifle criticism. Some thoughts...

We are calling European countries socialist now?

Either the IQ of people in office fell to double digits or they are intentionally spreading propaganda.

Wow

Learned this today:

"Poverty is not the absence of wealth. It is the consequence of wealth being concentrated in very few hands."

The exodus is happening slowly but surely.

(I try not to share Meta links and just screenshot. I know there’s still good activism happening on IG and Threads, but want to encourage migration off those too)

ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

Department of War is more honest, but I think we could keep it honest without having to change the acronym.

How about: The Department of Death?

Still abbreviates to US DOD, but now it's honest.

There's a media blackout on the FBI's new enemies list and cash fund for snitching on people harboring things like "anti-Americanism."

What little coverage its gotten has been laughably bad:
