Zohran Mamdani explains his definition of socialism to Theo Von: “Socialism to me means you’ll have whatever you need to live a dignified life and that it is the government’s job to deliver on that. When people say dignity we’re talking about the things that allow you to take a breath. Housing, childcare, public transit. No one should be priced out of these things. These are non-negotiables, you need these to live”

The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' — Isaac Asimov

Warren is proposing a novel idea. Why doesn't the US try this to see if it works?

The irony of farmers not understanding the term “you reap what you sow” is just wild.

Two Minnesota solar farms planted native grasses and wildflowers beneath their panels. Five years later, flowering plant species had increased sevenfold, native bee numbers more than 20 fold and total insect numbers had tripled, while more bees were also visiting nearby soybean fields.

Too many in the US take a strange pride in inadequacy—low literacy, cultural decay, even refusing to join the ICC or become party to the Rome Statute. These aren’t badges of strength or superiority. They’re symptoms of deeper weakness and moral decay, corrosive to democracy. You can fix it.

I watched all of this happen in real time, totally dumbfounded by the bizarre and stupid turn of events. People, a democracy doesn’t work if its citizenry is willfully ignorant and uninformed.

The people who call Socialism Communism because they have no idea what either word means are eagerly awaiting their government handout checks that are never coming.🤭

Caitlin was clearly the best player on Team USA in the Gold Medal Game!!

Hold on, is this injury a direct result of the Australian rugby leverage training he received?

AI is primarily used to create social media posts and steal land/water from citizens. It doesn't benefit society in any way!

Somewhere out there is a guy who bought a brand new GMC Sierra 1500 with a 96 month loan at 25% interest who just filled up at $6 dollar/gallon diesel carrying a massive credit card balance who is going to go home tonight and lose 100+ dollars on a Single Game Parlay

Investigate team USA for gambling! They don't pass Caitlin Clark the ball, nor do they attempt shots off her passes. Players are betting the "under" on her points and assists @FIBAWWC @usabasketball

so basically everyone has no money because of reagan, has no education bc of bush, and is about to have no healthcare bc of trump. and somehow democrats are unable to turn this information into a win for them

Tesla pays $323 million dollars a year to China in taxes for their Chinese plant.... Tesla pays $0 dollars in taxes for it American plants.... and yet somehow a single mom working 2 jobs on food stamps is the problem with this country.... wake the fuck up!!!!
