The problem is capitalism.
People shouldn't have to work 3 jobs just to survive.
Nothing should be sold for profit if its absence can kill you.
Liberals and conservatives both suck but nothing is worse than a fascist.
A better world is possible.

Something to keep in mind about rhetoric around Zohran is that the same billionaires and bigots who tried to smear him during the election will continue their efforts, especially if he continues to be well-liked and successful. These smear campaigns can be extremely sophisticated and convincing

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.
He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

Despite what we are often told, this line from Mamdani’s inauguration speech is what true pragmatism actually looks like:
“Beginning today, we will govern expansively and audaciously. We may not always succeed. But never will we be accused of lacking the courage to try.”

This year felt so long, all the way through. Even in spring it felt like it was moving slowly. That's probably because so much happened, and we expected that. 2025 was indeed a helluva decade.

I’m extremely concerned by reports the Trump administration destroyed a facility during a covert action in Venezuela.
If this was done without Gang of Eight oversight, it’s a serious violation of federal law and a dangerous escalation that pushes us closer to war: www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Trump says the U.S. took out a 'big facility' in Venezuela amid strikes on alleged drug boats
The president did not provide details about the apparent strike, which NBC News has not independently confirmed.

Bari Weiss’ two accomplishments so far are hosting an interview that she desperately wanted people to watch (but they didn’t) and trying to spike a news story that she desperately wanted nobody to watch (but they did)

Conservatives have done a masterful job, with a huge assist from the mainstream media, in rewriting the history of the recession, covid, and the Biden presidency (among other eras). Despite all this the only interest liberals and the Dems seem to have is more donations for another election cycle.

Guards began beating him. Beat him until he bled. Knocked his face into the wall, broke all his teeth. No access to outdoors, no contact with relatives.
Now describing US knowledge of CECOT's torture practices, followed by footage of Trump praising those practices.

Remember that show Adam Ruins Everything? It was really just about capitalism and now Adam Conover is openly political. Socialism and communism would be a lot more popular if more people understood economics. Most people hate capitalism, they just don't have the context to articulate it that way.
If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

Ultimately, conservatism is just selfishness and liberalism is just self-righteousness. We need to grow beyond both and leave this whole system behind. Capitalism, patriarchy, white supremacy, all of it. Stop trying to save it from itself. Let it die.
