Greetings my fellow earthlings.

@Ann1944 At least one country is trying to salvage a little justice for their "little people" (a.k.a. citizens)
Sen. Raphael Warnock: "We’ve only been a democracy in a real sense since 1965. What we are witnessing in real time is an assault on those basic voting rights. I think that the Supreme Court has committed violence against the ways in which ordinary people can have a voice in our system":

Dear Mastodon family, thank you from the depths of our hearts. Because of your kindness, we have now raised €157 toward our €365 goal. One young YECI member has been able to get medicine for his sick mother, bringing hope where there was fear. Another, an orphan, is still waiting for the chance to return to school on Monday. Tomorrow is our last day to help him. Please stand with us once more. Your support can protect a child's future and keep hope alive. Donate: https://givebutter.com/kaweesi 🙏
@mcnado Real men = toxic exclusionism. Including all who want to uphold the constitution: is the only way to fix the United States. It's time those who have commited the last 1.5 years of treason, turn themselves in and beg for mercy at the hands of the people they tried to exclude
Guys, we knew screw worm was headed north. We knew it would get here, absent profound mitigation efforts. We CHOSE to not help Mexico control it. We CHOSE to not prepare. We could have been producing and releasing millions of sterile flies daily, at a cost much less than the collapse of the Texas beef industry, but again, we CHOSE to focus on racist nazi nonsense instead. Trump, Abbot, and their goons own this, full stop. (Also, fuck the guys who voted for their own demise…)

@Deglassco Really, it's seems it is the rich arguing against the poor. Maybe socialism or communism isn't the way, but the longer the idiots at te top push their putrid status quo, the sooner we will see a pathway open up to eithrmer or both - to the "leaders":

For hating communism, something you've never experienced or seen, only heard about from your "superiors"; You're doing a damned fine job of ushering it in at every bigoted turn of your sordid "conquests"

In 1865, the guns of the Civil War fell silent. Many Northerners believed the nation had been remade. Good over evil. Right over wrong. But they underestimated the determination of those who had lost. The Civil War ended 161 years ago. Yet Americans are still arguing over the same questions: who counts as a citizen, who can vote, and whose America this is.
