@rbreich why are we so gross?

Average list price for a unit of insulin:

Australia: $6.94
UK: $7.52
France: $9.08
Germany: $11
Canada: $12
Japan: $14.40

US: $98.70

Isn't it time America hold Big Pharma accountable for its extortion?

On the first day of Black History Month, the College Board announced it was removing dozens of intersectional, queer, and BLM-supporting Black authors from its AP African American Studies course. What are they so afraid of?

Utah didn’t ban youth hormone therapy such as testosterone boosters for cis boys. It didn’t ban “gender affirming surgery” such as breast augmentation for cis girls.

Just for trans kids.

You know, in case you’re wondering if lawmakers are really out to “protect the children” like they claim.

Give me a break.

Egg prices are up 138%. We're calling BS on the excuses:

Avian flu? Avg flock size dropped 6% but no substantial drop in production.

Inflation? Cal-Maine's production costs were just 22% higher than in 2021.

We do not have to live like this. No other country on the planet does.

The Forgotten Socialist History of Martin Luther King Jr.

@rbreich isn’t that a classic part of fascism?

How MAGA and the oligarchy feed off each other:

1. The oligarchy's objective is to hoard wealth

2. It uses MAGA to keep us divided over culture wars

3. Oligarchy siphons off more wealth while we're distracted

4. MAGA uses the oligarchy's money for campaigns
