Broken Clock moment. Private universities like the Ivy Leagues absolutely shouldn’t be tax exempt, and also shouldn’t be receiving any aid whatsoever from any government, federal, state, or local.

The widespread conflation of judaism and zionism is a completely normalized form of anti-semitism.

And it is intentionally pushed by Israeli PACs.

I guess we will see. Since feb I’ve still gotten a bunch of fundraising txts for shitty candidates that have lost repeatedly in hopeless districts from the DNC. Example: Fl-6 and Fl-1

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida’s_1st_congressional_district

Or Texts from Corey Booker, who has been shitty since before 2016 and yet the DNC keep trying to turn him into the next Obama.

On Mar31 I got a fundraising text from “kamala,” yea, no comment needed there.

If you want to win you need to back candidates that are more then just centrist dems who want to be bipartisan.
If you truly believe the GoP are fascists, then you cannot work with them at all and that isn’t something I see from many of the current Dems. I guess the crop of candidates for 2026 will be revealing, but looking at Fl-1, the only dem candidate is the same one that has lost the previous 5 times, often by >10% of the vote.

Thankfully rational people control the DNC again

Is there a link or story or something about the DNC being changed out? Because afaik the DNC is the same as it ever was, funded by billionaires and PACs to push austerity, market economics and funding for Israel.

Good. Food shouldn’t be grown for profit at all and shouldn’t be exported. Time to nationalize all the agrobusinesses who “can’t survive” without paying slave wages to export millions of gallons of subsidized water to foreign countries for pennies.

AWS is unavoidable, other clouds are barely a blip for now. But even if the other clouds surpassed AWS, it’s not like that’s an improvement. Google Cloud? Oracle Cloud? Microsoft Cloud? Are you really going to bat for them just because Amazon = Bezos?

So while that is a fun fantasy, and let’s say it’s even plausible. What do you do afterward? Do you execute the police officers in the street? Do you ship them to a re-education camp set up by the fifth column in the foot hills of the rockies? How long do you keep up the charade? Parallel Systems of support are needed to fight a fascist government, not just a bunch of larpers on an afternoon.

Do “red states” not have a proletariat?

Why? He’s been back stabbing and sidelining since he got to be a victim and his pro-cop cause sucks a lot. If Bloomberg paid his PAC a few million to endorse the political equivalent of Pelosi, you bet your ass he’ll do that.

Thank you, Lemmy is looking like a slippery slope back into Reddit today with everyone just screaming at the headlines without knowing the full stories or context.

Have you read the article? You should it pretty short, and the Headline absolutely gets it right.

What she’s saying is to use the word “kings” instead of “oligarchy”. Which I get. Sure - do that. Makes sense. Same argument, same vitriol, more punch.

Still don’t agree with that. Oligarchy is a very specific thing that we are currently living in. We don’t have a king, not even by the most new-speak of definitions.

Detailing her plan, Slotkin – a former analyst for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Also hard pass. The CIA should be shuttered they will never be able to provide solution to the problems of capitalism, because their number one goal is to secure “US Interests Abroad” meaning, prop up the oligarchy.

The more I hear about billionaires losing billion’s the more I appreciate the tariffs.
