Making capitalists “pay their fair share into society” means all of it. They do not produce. They own. Their fair share is nothing. Labor is entitled to all it creates. It’s important we understand this.

This Thanksgiving—observe the National Day of Mourning.

From 1819 to 1969, US Govt stole tens of thousands of Indigenous kids—forcing them to convert to Christianity & stripping them of their identities. Resistance was met with violence. Sexual abuse was rampant.

“The teenager told the officers he was a U.S. citizen, but an officer proceeded to break the car’s driver’s side window and detain him.”

Let alone wrongful detention… how are these officers allowed to just smash windows? That is not how cops behave. Sketchy.

Holy shit. So Elon decides it would be nice to know what region of the world people are posting from. So they add that little feature.
2 hours later they figure out that many Trump supporters with millions of followers are posting from other countries. Surprise!
That "feature" is now gone.

1. Nearly every transgender person walks this earth knowing people like us who are no longer with us.

In writing about transgender people every day, I hold in my heart the people who are now our ancestors, and I try to bring their light forward.

These are the people I'm remembering today.

Grocery prices reach a record high.

The harmful policies of Trump and Republicans are crushing Americans.

And what is Trump focused on? Redecorating his marble bathroom, renovating his used jet from Qatar, and demolishing part of the White House to build his Epstein ballroom.
U.S. grocery prices have hit a record high — the monthly cost for a family of four is now $1,030.
