A cartoon by Ron Cobb (1975), showing a shadow of US B-52 bomber above cratered landscape. Two people who look like Vietnamese peasants look up; one says “they’re having problems with their economy again.”
This is from 1975.
You don't need to keep an official boycott going when everyone (including me) just... doesn't go back to shopping there. Tar-jhay has been replaced.
I don’t know about you, but if I was on a board of shareholders and business decisions were made based on artificially created surveys results, and those decisions weren’t profitable, I’d think my business had been defrauded.
A tomahawk missile costs the taxpayers the same amount of money as one five-year major NIH research grant. Remember that every time they tell us one of those missed the target, blew up paintings of enemy aircraft or tanks, or was the fifth and unnecessary hit on the same target.
We’re all going to shout down the “but how will you pay for it” people when we demand universal health care and a UBI, right? RIGHT?!

In case you missed it last night:
The work they are doing to normalize and universalize gAI use in schools and universities, to discredit any criticism, all to ensure they have a captive and uncritical customer base utterly dependent on them for generations
This part.
This is a good thread even if, like me, you grew up around labor activists, draft resisters, left-wingers, and punk rockers and thus never fully believed in the USA-is-always-the-good-guy narrative.

Have a listen:
The constituency of Americans who see DEI as detrimental to the country is vanishingly small, the sort of constituency that can easily be ignored if politicians want to ignore it.

One of the lessons of the Iran war is that it was a huge mistake not to even try to put any of the Iraq war architects in prison. We shouldn’t make it again.
Jesse Morse, MD: "Huge new study finding from COVID. 20 months after infection “In cardiovascular disease patients, T lymphocytes remained 72.9% below baseline for 20 months post-infection.” That’s absolutely insane. A 73% persistent drop in the body’s ability to fight infections. This includes your ability to fight cancer…"
