Thanks for sharing this!

For those of us who aren’t asleep, we know how bad things are. We know Trump and Musk and their goons are concerned only for amassing more of their own personal wealth and power at the obvious expense of everyone and everything else. News opinion pieces like this both give me a sense of sanity and not feeling alone, but also simultaneously depress/frustrate the hell out of me because it feels somewhat hopeless as the levers of power and information, from branches of government to news media, capitulate in various ways. Personally I think a general strike seems logical, but I have no idea how one would be organized in a country like the US with such an overall weak organized labor movement- though admittedly one that seems very active right now. However, I’ll always remain an optimist and believe a better world is possible.

Capitulating to fascists is never a good look.

As a public school teacher, I can assure these fascist pigs that I will continue to support and uplift all my students, including trans kids and any kids in the LGBTQI+ spectrum.

Yet another disgraceful and dark stain in American history books with the fascist pig Homan working hard to ruin peoples’ lives for no reason other than petty cruelty.

I couldn’t agree more. Trump and his goons are simply bad, bad people. I’m a public school teacher and rest assured the only thing I can and will do to counter this monstrous behavior is treat all my students with respect and kindness and be on the lookout for students who might need additional support in these bizarre times.

I agree. From the Nazi salute to this, Musk is making it maddeningly clear that he is as racist and bigoted as we imagine, and wants to invite his Nazi friends to join in.

The US is losing whatever sliver of credibility it has left.

The orange-faced pig king wants to help his minions by… letting them go and leaving them jobless.

This is so pathetic by Google.
