That's so true.
Your work might most probably interest the Fight the Oligarchy crowd.
I have discovered you a few weeks ago and now your work seems to be everywhere. Probably some selection bias on my part.
Still, why don't you use some hastags? Your work would travel farther in the fediverse.

I was reading a little about the Taft–Hartley Act (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taft%E2%80%93Hartley_Act).
And I read that this act, among other thngs, prohibited monetary donations by unions to federal political campaigns. Are you kidding me?
Has this part been overturned?
Billionnaires can fload political parties with money, but not workers unions?
Thanks to friends, neighbors, communities and volunteer marshals, we had a safe and fun March Against the Casino and Public Hearing!
Our Queens reps backed a casino at Citi Field, but they still don’t have a license. We need to keep up pressure so the state doesn’t grant one.
What can you do?

Anonymous trolls threatened violence against the family-friendly March Against the Casino.
It's been reported, so there may be more police, and also safety + deescalation support. Please do what feels safe for you.
But we won’t be intimidated. This march will be peaceful: full of music, bubbles, kids, and joy. Not a place for hate; a place for community power.
🚶♀️ Sunday Oct 5 · 1 PM
📍 Start: Corona Plaza → end at the Unisphere for a people’s hearing at 2:30 PM
Come stand against Steve Cohen’s casino.

This is entirely the platform and message Democrats are missing . Especially on Palestine. Bernie had standing ovation in NC. He powerfully called out Netanyahu's killing machine and US complicity. WHOA! Bernie destroys Trump in massive surprise NC rally. Ben Meiselas reports on the incredible speech by Senator Bernie Sanders in Asheville, NC where Sanders destroyed Trump in front a packed crowd in a state that voted Trump in 2024.

I know. I only post about the casino these days. Sorry, not sorry.

🔥 “There’s something wrong in this country… everything has gone up but wages… how many yachts and houses does one person need? — They want us to stay poor, stay hidden, and die silently.” 🇺🇸 #FightTheOligarchy H/T @violadavis.bsky.social
🔥 WATCH: Bernie sweeps aside Senator Slotkin saying Dems should stop talking about fighting the oligarchy because people don’t understand. Of course people get it. And if they don’t, you don’t stop saying it. You say it until they do. #FightTheOligarchy 🇺🇸
Skimming through the #FightTheOligarchy rally in LA, I found Eunisses Hernandez a very powerful speaker.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eunisses_Hernandez
Also I didn't know #JoanBaez and Maggie Rogers have a recurring duet covering "Don't Think Twice, It’s All Right" by Bob Dylan (but saying "I once loved a boy").

I'm on the stream today of the #FightTheOligarchy show, #AOC and #BernieSanders , which is live in L.A.
The stream keeps pausing, the audio fades every ow and then.
Twitch is carrying it as well.
Members of congress Priya Jayapal and Ro Khanna spoke, and lots of union leaders and strike leaders (UAW -California, and those striking against Kaiser Permanente, L.A. Teachers etc) The planned General Strike, May 1 2028 was mentioned.

Well I certainly didn't have #BrianEno coming out in support of #TaxingTheRich on my bingo card but he's not wrong and his timing is perfect.
Who’s hot? AOC and Bernie. Who’s not? Gavin and Chuck. #fighttheoligarchy https://www.npr.org/2025/03/22/nx-s1-5334488/bernie-sanders-fight-oligarchy-tour-trump-musk-doge-democrats
Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez: "Something special is happening. Over *34,000* people joined our #FightTheOligarchy rally tonight with Sen. Bernie Sanders and I. Biggest political event in Denver since Obama 2008. Working people are ready to stand together and fight for our democracy. Thank you Colorado!" #politics

It was a little like pulling off a bandaid, but I wanted to make it clear I'm not in support of the oligarchy taking over democracy.
Musk spent between 100-130 million to get Trump elected. Since the election his net worth has increased between $50-70 BILLION.
Pretty new on this platform. Follows appreciated. News and thoughts on all kinds of topics from a left leaning perspective.

@pluralistic Cory's latest on Amazon is a must read: https://pluralistic.net/2023/06/14/flywheel-shyster-and-flywheel/#unfulfilled-by-amazon
I've been locked into Amazon Prime for a while: I have movies on Prime Video, and a fuckton of Kindle books.
There Are Ways to turn these DRMed assets into more portable, perpetually accessible assets, and once that is accomplished, I think I'll break my lockin. They've been raising prices and been definitely shittier in letting me find what I want. #Amazon #Monopolies #Monopolists #FightTheOligarchy
