the absolute arrogance, and the dangerous assumption that every citizen is probably guilty of something, so get out of the way otherwise I'm pulling you over...such fascistic thinking.
@ContextFall
there are a lot of people walking around that don't realize how badly COVID policy fucked our future...like 4 million people fell out of the workforce and nobody says a damn thing
@luckytran
as an American, I truly feel that we loath ourselves...we have been trained to expect nothing, so we indulge in the myths of the great past and believe in a greatness that's long dead and buried...ffs they gave us $1400 and acted as if all our troubles would go away.
@WUTangKids
smh...if I owned that car, I would hate these people for the rest of my days...cause there is no way any of these privileged white kids were arrested, and you know the insurance payout was probably nothing, like 2-3K
I've been a book dealer and collector for over two decades now...in the social media era, I've never seen a writer

that looks like they are thoroughly enjoying their book tour...obtw...I loved They Knew!
@PadmaLakshmi
think it's time for the timequake...let's go back to January 1, 1999 and see if we can un-fuck this...start with taking a look at those election officials in Florida.
@SashaBeauIoux
Sorry…you’re the one that is lost…you think that police have the right to use violence against peaceful protestors…I’m sorry but you’re a garbage human being…what would i expect from a Zionist
@SocialistMMA
What is your point? They all voted against the NDAA...supporting NATO--which is a defensive alliance-- is a necessary move in the face of Russian aggression...or are they only progressive if they follow your narrow guidelines.
@PamKeithFL
The DCCC needs to adopt a 50 state policy...they are pre-surrendering a massive number of competitive districts...there is no way the DCCC did any research on Boebert's district, or understood how vulnerable she was...even a little bit of money could have given Frisch that seat

@NiallStanage
: How is it that UN, Human Rights Watch, Amnesty, ICC can all find compelling evidence of war crimes by Israel and the US with its enormous powers can’t find those things?
Miller: Different orgs have different burdens and responsibilities, we take ours seriously
@adventuregirl
@luckytran
it is a cultural issue...Americans have been warped into believing that spending $700 billion+ every year for "defense" is just assumed while even modest spending on social programs is treated like a Marxist ploy to steal their hard-earned money...it's 40 years of propaganda
@Thomas_Carrieri
Lamar Jackson following up Tom Brady would have been amazing...don't know how the Boston media would have handled it (ahem...racists) and Brady might not have been cool with a back-up with ridiculous talent, but it would have been another decade of Patriot dominance.

The fruit sellers are far more helpful to the community and tourism than the cops making six figures, looking at their phones and outright hostile to the public, draining funds that should go to the schools and social services

I’m a small business owner that would jump at the chance to live in a country with the benefits that your tax dollars provide…I bust my ass to provide for my family and don’t even come close to receiving your benefits in the US…perhaps you should be thankful for what you have
@MeetJess
truly heartbreaking...I held her as the standard for global leadership...effective and compassionate...she is a human being and she has earned this time, but damn it must be a huge loss for New Zealand.
@mehdirhasan
The majority of Americans have wanted a ceasefire the entire time. It's American *officials* who are fine with genocide and child murder. They don't care what it costs them in elections or their very souls. Those defending or making excuses for them are evil as well.
@Toure
you should be proud...your child can critically think...my wife and I did not have children because of the state of the world, and its only going to get worse

@AP
I agree that climate collapse is absolutely serious, however I think they wasted paint on a priceless painting instead of pouring on an oil oligarch or a fossil fuel lobbyist.
@_EarnieBanks
It's something out of the Hunger Games, or some other poorly written YA dystopia...it's not enough that these people are human beings, living a hard life...the rich, and the libs need to feel that suffering on video-and only then will they bless you with their treasure
Right now, I'm juggling Middlemarch, Stephen King's new collection of horror stories and the Dune saga...I'm pretty much done with history, which I used to love until all of our leaders decided to shit on all of its lessons...for me, Sarah Kendzior makes me feel like I'm notcrazy
@BreeNewsome
100% correct...American pols are terrified to even suggest that Americans even be slightly inconvenienced...some hard truths need to be told...for example, maybe it wasn't a good idea for every suburban white male to buy a truck that costs $100+ to fill every week.
@ContextFall
Vonnegut was the 20th Century Twain without the folksy hokum…it’s no surprise that the mass media and literary establishment heading into Reagan, tried to discredit him as irrelevant…every V novel or story centered around morality and the decisions we ultimately make
@whstancil
@KevinPHaley
which is exactly what you are doing right now...as far as I can tell the "leftists" are making the legitimate argument that this is the result of deregulation, and that the people that live in the Ohio River Basin need to informed about the toxicity of their environment
@DebHolloway
same here in the US...our govt listened to corporate interests and the most selfish of our citizens (the media was complicit with this) so we are going into a summer of reinfection and massive fall/winter shortages...fantastic
@mattyglesias
Biden has repeatedly said that he doesn't support Medicare for All, so I have a feeling that there are plenty of senior leadership Democrats (and their donors) that agree with him.
@LoneWoof99
@AshAgony
anyone that has every bought food from the seller on the street knows that what you are saying is absolute bullshit...there have been street vendors like this in NYC since the days of the Revolution, the only difference is the color of the skin of these immigrants.
@Its_Miss_Riss
what I want to know is the lethality of COVID infection over time? what if it turned out that lethality is 25-30% after 5-8 years? I just don't understand how flippant people are about a new virus, especially one whose origin story keeps on changing.
@EliseStefanik
mind you that this is a total lie, unvaccinated Americans are doing a fine job spreading the DELTA VARIANT on their own, and as a representative from a New York county that borders Canada I think that migrants coming from the southern border is a low priority
@bobcesca_go
To be fair, Hillary Clinton ran one of the worst campaigns in recent memory, running on essentially an anti-Trump campaign, offering voters nothing and insulting the Mid-West by not even bothering to show up until October…but, you know, blame the voters
@CheriJacobus
@YouTube
too bad
@sarahkendzior
has been warning that Trump was a Russian asset since 2015, but nobody in the mainstream media gave a damn...CNN kept on airing his Nazi rallies throughout the 2016 election.
@LexiAlex
WKCR coverage has been absolutely amazing...constant updates with accurate information...they are looking CNN and MSNBC look like absolute corporate puppets...no major network will provide you with this coverage.
@MeetJess
honestly, I think we need to be done...it's bad enough, we treat each other so brutally, but what we are doing to the earth and other species is monstrous...we did not emotionally evolve fast enough.
@strxwmxn
@lithub
a pretty ignorant statement, considering that the medieval Islamic caliphates were building giant libraries, and preserving Greek and Roman classics, while the early Christians were so quick to burn them...but you know you've got a genocide to defend.
@leahmcelrath
@BillClinton
perfect example of why we will probably lose our democracy...a former POTUS needs to go on an entertainment program to raise the alarm...majority of Americans are in fantasy land, while the people paying attention have been warning people for years.
@StckedLibrarian
our library functions as a part-time middle school daycare center for at least 2-3 hours M-F...and I'm fairly certain for some elementary school students as well.

@aaronjmate
Hamas is the resistance...Israel is the occupier...the only way this conflict ends is if Israel ends the occupation of Gaza and the West Bank...its clear as day.
@asadabukhalil
I'm sorry...the government of the United States does not speak for me or my family...they have never represented our interests for a long time...what they and the other Western governments are doing is criminal and appalling.

@umichvoter
this is a disgusting take...we are talking about genocide, and there are people whose morality and sense of justice that will never accept what Joe Biden has done...a ton of young voters will never get over this.
@sarahkendzior
there are a good portion of Americans that believe that since the DOJ/Garland never bothered to prosecute the 1/6 ringleaders and that the insurrectionists within Congress were not removed that the entire thing was not that big of a deal...Biden and the Dems failed
Why is this insane libertarian party talking about this but not
@AOC
@DNC
@SenSherrodBrown
@PeteButtigieg
@POTUS
@VP
or anyone else from the federal government? We are talking about the potential poisoning of the Ohio River, Americans that live in this region
A train derailment in Ohio is currently emitting massive amounts of carcinogenic compounds into the air, this alone would be enough to be interesting but it seems there is more to the story. Norfolk Southern seems to be operating hand in hand with the government in this area,
@sarahkendzior
Shame on Ruth Ben-Ghiat and Timothy Snyder, the latter being one of the more well-known scholars on the Holocaust, for being completely silent on Israel’s crimes and the suffering of the Palestinian people…they were very quick to call out Russia’s war against Ukraine…now nothin

I think her statements are extremely valid...these are institutions created to help American citizens...why aren't they? These are valid questions and we should be mad as hell that they are shirking their responsibilities.
@MeetJess
Xi felt the pressure from business interests, probably from the West as well, and let it rip...sadly the Chinese probably fell for the trap of normalcy and now they are pissed at the government for completely failing them...join the club.
@JoshuaPHilll
accelerated climate change is irreversible...she knows that and the conservative IPCC knows that...the difference is that destroying the capitalist system may salvage what's left of the planet, decommission the nuclear plants so that at least the planet will recover-in time.
@LittleMammith
Immigration, law enforcement, trans rights, climate change, Israel, defense spending, the houseless, unions…the Democrats have moved further to the right on almost every major issue, except abortion, and voting rights—they just won’t do anything to protect them
@WajahatAli
Has Biden, or the Democrats made any sort of argument, or taken definitive action to win over the votes of any American voter that is appalled by Israel's slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank? The answer is no...in a democracy, pressure of elected officials is

you're telling me that every other major Western nation on the planet figured out universal health care, decades ago!!!-and the US government, who gives a blank check to defense every fucking year, can't figure it out

If COVID mutates into a high mortality variant, I do not trust the CDC to make this known to the public until it was way too late to do anything about it.
@benFranklin2018
the comatose state of the federal government and the Democratic party partly explains the lack of national outrage at everything happening right now...the other: people are fucking exhausted and traumatized.
@garbage
They are also burning classic books, like Fahrenheit 451, On the Origin of Species and To Kill a Mockingbird…this is all out war on the Enlightenment and the modern world…sadly, I feel like this is only the beginning
@99blackbaloons
you can see the narrative on the climate denier side beginning to morph from 'it's just weather' to 'it's happening, we just need to adapt' to the ever insidious 'nature is just reducing our population'
@ScottLCostello
@AP
noted, but all you are doing is pissing off the people that you want on your side...I agree with the absolute seriousness of what we are facing, but I consider what they are doing to be nonsense...humiliate an oil oligarch...people would stand behind that.
