The number of Kremlin sympathizers on this platform is disgusting. And every one appears to love two Americans in particular—Trump and Musk. If Putin blows up the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, this platform will be lousy with MAGA Kremlinists falsely accusing Ukraine of doing it.

Strike, power to the people, not the corporate fatties. (side note, why is it of all the left, liberal, supposed progressive accts I follow on Twit and Youtube, and the 'news' feeds I get, the only place I heard about this is from one trans rights channel I follow on yt? 🤨)
Replying to @Teamsters
It’s time for #Teamsters and our allies to show the nation — and the world — the unparalleled power of union solidarity.

Negotiations with UPS collapsed. They are still prioritizing their multi billion profits over our lives. As part-timers, we are tired of the sweatshop working conditions and poverty wages. Get ready, because looks like that on August 1 we are having a historic strike. @Teamsters – at Brooklyn, NY

Unions are the backbone of our middle class and America's working families.    I proudly stand with the 340,000 @Teamsters at UPS who are exercising their right to organize.   Their tireless work keeps our economy moving — and they deserve dignity, respect and a fair contract.

Farewell to Monte Cazazza, who is credited with coining the phrase "Industrial Music for Industrial People." With connections to Throbbing Gristle, he produced projects described as "insanity-outbreaks thinly disguised as art events," and released some truly classic music.

Today’s decision by the conservative Supreme Court to eliminate student debt relief for millions of Americans will have a profound economic impact for generations to come. My thoughts:

How are you liking this supremacist Kremlin court? Six of the mother fuckers on the court ask themselves WWPD what would Putin do and vote exactly that way! These are some anti American mother fucking clowns who need to be booted tf off the court thru any means possible

NEVER FORGET: When Barack Obama was President, Mitch McConnell BLOCKED President Obama from having nomination hearings for SCOTUS for almost a year. When Donald Trump was President, Sen Mitch McConnell rammed through 3 nominees that ALL perjured themselves under oath.

I suppose Clarence Thomas is happy that he and his billionaire, conservative friends have finally killed the ability to use race as one factor in determining entrance to our colleges and universities. I suppose Clarence Thomas and his privileged, billionaire friends, who own a Supreme Court Justice, can lean back and gloat, while they are resting on their private airplanes and fine vacation sites. Clarence Thomas has just struck a blow against children of color being able to get educated, take positions of power, and eradicate discrimination and racism that denies full equality and opportunity.

President Biden delivered on his promise to cancel student loans, and now a reactionary Supreme Court has overturned it. Fortunately, the administration is going to use other means to deliver relief to borrowers. Let’s break down what they’re doing:

The Supreme Court's recent rulings were sadly predictable for anyone who understands the hard-right agenda. Their goal has always been to install Justices whose job is to turn back the clock on our freedoms, on decades of constitutional decisions, and on our continuing struggle to “form a more perfect union” that includes all of us. Let's vote out their political enablers and rein in the dark, subversive money that supports them in their quest to reverse a century of progress.

So the Supremacist Court has ultimate power over absolutely everything?

I’m personally devastated by the Supreme Court Decision on Affirmative Action. The brilliant dissent by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson crystallizes the complete detachment of an extremist right-wing Court to the basic realities & continuing legacy of race & wealth in America.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first Black woman to serve on the Supreme Court, accuses the majority of a “let-them-eat-cake obliviousness” after affirmative action ruling. "But deeming race irrelevant in law does not make it so in life." trib.al/xYod6jz
