I don't know if many people will see this, but the Wedge CO-OP still prohibits their employees from wearing Palestinian solidarity clothing/flair.

I just can't shop there knowing they could be so much better.

Want to know why John and Patricia Wall, the owners of Malcolm Yards, conspired to keep @robin4mpls.bsky.social and @michaelforparks.bsky.social from talking to residents of their buildings?

Follow the money.

The pair have maxed out donations to Robin’s opponents, as well as Mayor Frey.

Read the book Starting Somewhere @jphillll.bsky.social · Sep 2

The millionaire CEO who stole a hat from a child at the US Open is, ultimately, indicative of the whole ruling class.

This is what we’re up against, a small number of people and a system that will gladly and unapologetically steal from children and from all of us.

Who steals from a child? A CEO.

He snatched a hat from a kid in front of the whole world.

If you were a "good person" but the world is exactly the same as when you arrived, if you never fed a hungry person or reduced someone's suffering or comforted a grieving person, what was the point of being a "good person" except your own ego?

It's not about being good. It's about doing good.

Just a reminder that the Strib endorsed Becka in 2021 because "She vows to strive(what???) to keep the park board 'in its lane'"

She's spent the last few years ignoring her responsibilities on the MPRB and been focused on carpetbagging down to Ward 12

The context is Becka is talking about the DSA infiltration of the Minneapolis DFL, claiming Council Vice-President Aisha Chughtai portrayed herself as a moderate to win office.

"Because people would rank her second or third 'cause they're like 'The nice young—you know—ethnic woman.'"

Disgusting.
