Ram and scram

Plow and ciao

Nail and bail

Score and door

Hump and jump

I get your point but I think they were making a /s kinda comment

Good news is good news!

Most impeached president ever, let’s go

This is the real problem, I don’t feel like we desperately need legislation to stop people losing their life savings on these, it’s the fucking institutional investors I don’t trust. They risk my savings account for their grift and the government has to bail them out.

I am so bringing tea next time

The 13M type numbers came out early and captured a lot of attention but didn’t have much legitimacy, but they anchored people’s expectations. The smaller numbers are coming out now and have much more legitimacy. They may be smaller but in the big picture this is all still impressive, the movement is big and growing

These rallies/protests/whatever are exactly how you build momentum for a general strike.

A general strike is useless without a significant percentage of the population joining. As these protests keep happening the attendees trust that the networks that are drawing them together will step with them into more drastic action, like a general strike. We are building a small amount of trust and cooperation between literally millions of people. It’s not going to happen overnight.

Seriously, there will be more, I don’t think we’ve seen the biggest ones yet either.

It feels good to know that lots of other Americans care about what’s going on. I don’t know if we’re going to make it but I felt like part of a country out there and I hope we figure it out.

Cheers y’all, hope the next year is even better

I feel like that sometimes too :(

I think a lot of awfulness is just the result of a poor internal model of the world. Intentionally spreading a poor model of the world is an effective propaganda strategy and often done. However it is difficult to tell apart people who have been lied to and people who have been unintentionally misled.

I think a great many people, myself included, have been misled about a great many things. Mostly not even out of maliciousness, but because reality is not as obvious as it could be. Our perspectives are often so limited. My takeaway from all this is to try and broaden my perspective, and when possible, give people the benefit of the doubt. Maybe they just need some new information, or the removal of a malign influence.

“In other news, propaganda works” 🫩

I really like this idea, I can’t believe you just threw this together, awesome work and thank you for sharing, I hope it gets some traction

thank goodness, I almost forgot what good news looked like
