“Why is the beyond meat account wading into current events”

I just think that if men are too emotional to hold positions of power, we should leave it up to cows

Busting up big corporations. 

Tackling Wall Street’s greed.

Getting big money out of politics. 

Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages.

Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare...

This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.

For the members of The Resistance, with a special note of thanks to @markhamillofficial.bsky.social

“America was founded on lofty and laudable ideals” is not refuted by “they kept slaves and did genocide,” they’re just two different things that are true. That the ideals were not realized then, that we haven’t gotten there now, does not mean that those ideals aren’t there.

If Trump is willing to hurt the economy, he must be getting something he wants even more in return.

That thing is power. With tariffs, Trump can exercise a kind of corruption that the country hasn’t experienced in some 150 years. Read @pemalevy.bsky.social.

So @theatlantic.com bringing the receipts on #SignalGate. Here's a gift article so you can see the chat yourself but it sure looks like war plans to me: www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

You cannot negotiate with terrorists. If the Ivies give in to any regime demands, the goal posts will move. If the massive ivy endowments aren’t deployed to preserve institutional integrity and academic freedom, what on earth are they for?

Musk staffers are joking about how upcoming Social Security changes will restrict access by requiring in-person visits while simultaneously shutting down offices. They are touting the cost savings from limiting access.

USPS has 750,000 employees, working class union members with stability, healthcare and retirement. Their unions did not endorse a candidate in the 2024 presidential election, but that's not saving their members now. In addition to the essential USPS services US residents need. This is devastating.

Yes. But they are missing that much of this has to be performative. That’s what Trump is great at and Dems are awful at.

You can’t just tell voters , you have to know how to sell voters.

Trump gives sales pitches, Dems show charts. One goes viral. The other is ignored and forgotten

And we see you over there on the internet. Comparing all the girls who are killing it. But we figured you out. We all know now, we all got crowns. You need to calm down.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
