@ThomHartmann Thom, we can #Unite and fight fascism. #WeAreTheGuardrailsofDemocracy

If Thom Harmann cares about democracy he should have never worked for Russia Today imho.

@GreenFire KB, working for someone or an organization doesn’t make one anti-democratic. I’ve worked for insurance companies who I hated but it paid the bills—also, it taught me how to beat the homeowners insurance system.
Insider knowledge is priceless.

@damnkimberlee
I went from a six-figure salary to poverty wages because I couldn't justify working for the fossil fuel industry any longer once I accepted I'd not reform them from within. Not many people make the kind of choices I have for things that are important imo.

@GreenFire If I may ask, what made you leave?

@damnkimberlee
Once I realized that not enough people were taking #ClimateAction to forestall our #ClimateCrisis I had to leave in order to begin my full-time fight against the #FossilFools and thankfully have had a lot of success with that although I didn't think it would take this long so I now realize that I should have done something about figuring out how to make income afterwards, but what happens to me doesn't matter compared to what happens to the planet I figure.

@GreenFire @damnkimberlee
There are people who would question your “merit” for making that decision. (which is what is wrong with “meritocracy” and it’s insidious infection in our schools and courtrooms)

@janamg @damnkimberlee
Yes, our society pretty much only recognizes success in $$ I've become painfully aware.
