Why is the East Bay Times featuring on its front page a story about a toy store in San Diego in its "Things To Do" section?
San Diego is 500 miles away from the East Bay. This is not a day trip.
Oh, it's because the East Bay Times is owned by the same folks who own the La Jolla Light.
Because there is no local news anymore - just endless consolidation and centralization.
This is part of the problem.

The National Guard has killed protestors, strikers, and anyone else who has stood up to American Fascism for decades.
Now it's ICE.
This country was never great. It was never about peace, freedom, or liberty for anyone other than a handful of perverts who believe they have some divine right to tell the rest of us how to live.
How many historical and contemporary examples do you need before you finally fucking push back?

We don't need to accept the terms of the perverts - their wealth and influence is built on top of our backs.
Deny them your labor and your attention.
Focus your efforts on building back the communities they destroyed and took from you.
Share the labor and proceeds with your communities as equally as possible.
The perverts are **TERRIFIED** of you doing this - because they are useless and powerless without you.
You have the real power - use it.

So many of the so-called "solutions" to the problems created by perverts require us to continue validating their existence.
Unions, for example, exist in opposition to the managerial / ownership side of a business. Too often, union leaders themselves become managerial, which taints their intentions.
Cooperatives, on the other hand, place management and ownership of labor where it belongs - with those doing the actual work.

The perverts got scared during the pandemic - their power and influence was called into question as millions were forced to stay home instead of sell their lives to them.
Everything we're seeing now is in response to that fear - and they've not been shy or secretive about that.
Until we "fall in line", they will continue to apply suffering to those "beneath" them.
We need to take our lives back from them. Now.

“What we’re seeing today is that there are really two separate economies: one for people who make their primary income through investment and passive income . . . and then typical workers who clock in day in and day out.”
Where does the value that drives those investments come from?
And why are selfish, lazy perverts reaping the majority of the benefits while the people actually creating the value struggle and suffer?
-
Too many people associate "populism" with racism, sexism, etc.
That means the perverts' propaganda is working.
The opposite of populism is establishmentarianism.
Populism says the government should be responsive to the needs of its citizens.
Establishmentarianism says the people exist exclusively to serve the perverts.
Which side are you actually on, here?

The whole "prediction market" (read: gambling) industry is WAY fucking out of hand.
The Weather Co is now partnering with Kalshi to verify weather-related bets:
People are literally betting on the weather.
The article couches this as a hedge for businesses against negative weather related outcomes.
So... they acknowledge that insurance is gambling?
The perverts actively prevent us from taking care of each other and ourselves.

A truly "Christian" nation would never allow such a thing.

The perverts force work requirements, paperwork, and other time wasting bullshit on the people who need our help the most.
The system is corrupt and broken beyond fixing.
LOOOOOONG past time to replace it with something more compassionate and locally focused.

"I have to appease the perverts I work for, otherwise how will I be able to take care of my family?" is not the noble sacrifice you think it is.
