As an average American, I feel it is my duty to step up and be the change we all desperately want to see in politics. It’s clear now more than ever that outsourcing political decision-making to people who don’t represent us, who don’t live our lifestyle, and who don’t deal with

I thought Elon was an immigrant. I am surprised he changed his mind on immigration. A few months ago, he advocated for an inclusive immigration policy similar to what allowed him to build wealth in America.

As a 26 year Colorado resident and candidate for U.S. Congress in Colorado’s 5th congressional district, there are a lot of mixed messages around this issue and the videos circulating are most definitely packaged by political entrepreneurs who want to exploit the grievance

It’s understandable. Hang in there. Your startup is exciting. Tough to break family norms but they will come around later. Be patient with them. They mean well for sure.

lol ridic. The internet is something else. I’m not a RFK supporter necessarily but I thought he put on a good demonstration of 3rd party politics.
Knowledge is not the same as wisdom. The intellect is always a thought away, distant from the wise, but rich with knowledge. And with this knowledge comes what? For, a lack of application is as good as occupying an abyss of nothingness.
@yassmin_a
Yes, its a sentiment of extreme hard right religious conservatives who believe the decline of society is directly correlated with multiple expressions of feminism (3rd, 4th wave esp.) They bring up the “declining birth rate, demise of the nuclear family, and the attack on men.”

I don’t think she’s saying this is happening because of the files. She’s saying the files demonstrate that Twitter may have engaged in censorship in Brazil in and around the time of the election.

Actually, global equity is only one part of environmentalism. You also have areas like sustainability, technological innovation, scientific knowledge in biology, ecology, behavior, etc., preservation, conservation, you know.. is it necessary to be single threaded? There is a

Is crossing the border legally the only requirement? What about Russians who enter the United States flying lawfully into Florida to have a baby so their kids can receive birthright citizenship?

I can't get the idea of political dissent out of my mind. And is there a better way to explore it than through art? I think not, and I'll write about what I believe is the construction of political poetry.

It sounds like a conspiracy theory, but in politics, a revolving door is one in which personnel moves between roles as legislators and regulators on the one hand and members of the industries affected by the legislation and regulation on the other, like working for the FBI and

The implications of WikiLeaks are beyond free speech. We are talking about the destabilization of a number of governments around the globe. The scheme was at the leading edge of the Arab Spring and evoked significant reactions by governments to further restrict the flow of info.

Science uses media to communicate its interests. It seems like science would want to push its interests through digital media seeing as that is where people spend a lot of their days.
