Unfortunately, we just heard that it appears the West Caldwell Town Council is re-introducing proposed Ordinance 1898, which imposes unconstitutional restrictions on the rights of assembly and free speech (i.e., demonstrations) TONIGHT WITHOUT ANY CHANGES TO THE ORIGINAL PROVISIONS.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.
For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

It’s not that an individual is bad because they’re a billionaire.
In a capitalist system, becoming a billionaire happens through a transfer of wealth, generally from and through the exploitation of people who are poor and the working class.
The process to become and stay a billionaire is immoral.

There’s a lot of discourse about CEOs and billionaires right now. It’s hard to have this convo on TikTok but I think Bluesky can handle it with nuance.
