🤔What if the greatest president in US history is a woman that will get elected in the 2040s?

And she reverses climate change, ends world hunger, and leads the multinational effort that saves us from The Comet(tm)?

But she never exists?

Because she dropped out of politics?

Because of harassment?

@mekkaokereke I've often pondered what wonderous ideas, inventions, and innovative caring systems etc. we've missed out on by having the majority of humankind faced with headwinds created by our socioeconomic system benefiting a few rather than tailwinds lifting up anyone who wants help.

There’s a lot of similarities in how he and Musk were perceived and promoted by the incestuous wealthy class. It seems they will run from a homeless person but welcome and celebrate fraudsters, perverts and pedophiles if they believe they can make them money.

@AnnieBuddy @tedmielczarek @virtuous_sloth @mekkaokereke You seem to be confusing Jay Gould, railroad mogul and financier, and Stephen J Gould, an evolutionary biologist.
