Look at this graph.

The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.

This is why we must build back union power.

We can verify the daily physical status of a specific Seattle raccoon but apparently we're completely unable to determine whether a United States Senator is alive or dead.

Mitch McConnell won't see your posts but your friends who are also 84, brain dead, and who have spent the last several decades dismantling democracy and ushering in a fascist takeover of our government will. 💔

"Why don't Americans-" The ruling class of America has intentionally disempowered its citizens spread across 3,000+ miles of land and then funded the police force as an occupying army that happily murders anyone who opposes them and imprisons whoever is left as slave laborers. So phone calls it is

The world not screeching to a halt when the US killed more than 100 little school girls on the very first day of this "liberating war" led us exactly to this moment

Markwayne. Why not just name your kid Toilet

Gotta suck shit being a true Trump believer. You spend years roiling in anger over made-up bullshit. You fill a little bottle with piss or whatever and spray a 5-foot tall woman with it. She instantly squares up to kick the shit out of you. You go to jail. The goons you idolize say you work for her.

The execution of Alex Pretti is playing so badly because you can look at his actions and life story - his last act was helping, boy scout, athlete, health care worker to veterans - and compare those to the men who killed him and know which you would want to be your son, brother, father, uncle.

They have fucking assault rifles and we have whistles and they’re scared shitless, because they know we’d rather be righteous and dead than ever be them.

These people were screaming “you can’t kill us all, Nazis!” immediately after ICE shot a woman in the face.

If you can’t summon even a fraction of their spirit, log off and stop spreading doom and complacency.

"Maduro is a brutal authoritarian dictator," I wisely intone, as the corrupt demented paedophile US President violating Constitutional Law while operating a gestapo and concentration camps illegally arrests a foreign leader on charges which read like they were written on a paper placemat in crayon.

Wow, that must be so terrifying to think you're being abducted.

Hello @support.bsky.team

I heard from Sarah Kendzior @sarahkendzior.bsky.social that her account was suspended.

Can you please look into this and reinstate her account? She’s a published author and scholar on authoritarianism. Her presence here is valuable.

This shit must hit so hard if you’re stupid.

Good morning.

The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you.

Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.

The stupidest people are in charge because we couldn’t prosecute a political crime because it would look too political.

All I'll say about this morning's news is that you're about to hear more teeth gnashing clothes rending outrage & condemnation from the media & Western politicians than you have throughout a 19 month genocide that has just been kicked into overdrive

Musk did a Nazi salute because he knows there are zero political consequences to him doing so, and he can harass and intimidate anyone who tries to call him out. Expect others to follow suit…there are going to be a lot of unacceptable words and behaviors that are going to become “normal” + defended
