Good Morning America last week when I was at my parents house was basically a paid ad for Americans to get out and move to Portugal.
Oh you are sick and used all your PTO / Sick days? Looks like you’re getting points for being absent. Oh 3 days? Looks like you got too many points. HR will send you your separation letter now. also your workplace health insurance is cancelled.
Well when those days are also your “sick days” you tend to want to hold on to them. My manager is out sick with COVID for like the 4th or 5th time. In Summer.
Every 6 months they need to come up with a new “quiet quitting” term to try to yet again defelct from the lack of material conditions.
But who paid Putin?

Well shit we might as well have stayed “down for maintence” permanently now.
However, in a twist, Zúñiga claimed in comments to journalists before his arrest that Arce himself told the general to storm the palace in a political move. “The president told me: ‘The situation is very screwed up, very critical. It is necessary to prepare something to raise my popularity’,” Zúñiga quoted the Bolivian leader as saying.
Zúñiga sajd he asked Arce if he should “take out the armored vehicles?” and Arce replied, “Take them out.”
No no no you see they WANTED ME to stage a coup you see! To boost the ALREADY SITTING PRESIDENT’S popularity!
if anything happens, just say it was the president’s idea. I R very smrt. The public will totally believe you too. Trust me.
So that means we’ll stop exporting record numbers of guns to flood the world in chaos and stop being an Empirical worship society right?
We will at least disarm the poilice right?

Ever hear that liberalism is the moderate wing of facism? Today’s Democrat Party is now the party of and Cheney. Look up ratchet effect. Every election it just gets more right wing. Mostly because the Democrats have the same bribers as Republicans and the Democrats have no actual left to compete with to balance that pull to the right from Republicans.
Here is a 2nd thought video on how the US ended up with two right wing parties.
The benifet is tearing down the facade that we have a democracy and forcing the establishment to acknowledge 3rd parties (including in debates by default, matching public funds, news articles showing the significance) , as well as popularizing 3rd parties and getting 3rd parties elected in local representation.
As former DNC operative and current DNC media wonk Lawrence O’Donnell said "We didn’t have to listen to ANYTHING on the left…if you want to move the party to the way you are thinking you MUST show that you are capable of not voting for them."
Remember how big a deal those “non committed” votes were in the Primary? How much they made a stink of Jill Stein’s votes in 2016? That’s what hurts the empire. Because it is run on “consent”, enough votes not consenting to the system to the point they can’t ignore / fudge with is extremely significant.

Biden’s Green Mold Deal isn’t even enough to keep up with the damage done by climate enhanced storms. It is 1/10th of a limited period of even begining to address what we need to do.
Loan forgiveness? Oh you mean all the people who you say qualify but when they apply you deny them or say “oh…it’s only a small part. We didn’t mean everything if you qualify…oh and then you had to have had the money paying on that debt…so if you couldn’t pay or if your debt is recent, then welcome to pragmatism honey”
