The headline of course isn't exactly accurate.

"“
He announced that he’s running again in 2024, and I think that we can all be very clear and say with a matter of fact that if you vote for Joe Biden you really are counting on President Harris."

Is she wrong? #inconvenienttruth
I agree it's not exactly a nice thing to say.

But factually, she's not wrong about the probabilities.
"If you are an 80 year old man, your long-term odds are not great. There is a 30% chance of making it to your 90th birthday, and only about 14 in 1,000 will see 100."

Pleased to finally announce the North American release of our documentary, #NuclearNow, in theaters on April 28th. It took - off and on - nearly 3 years to pull together. This is a pressing global issue, and our goal was always to show it in as many countries as possible. ImageImageImage
I’m excited that the team at @abramorama is our domestic distributor on #NuclearNow, and @mediawanrights our international sales company; @giant_pictures is handling digital and streaming platforms; @rocofilms is handling educational sales. ImageImageImage
Additionally, @Participant, an avatar in producing films with a social and #environmental impact (#InconvenientTruth, #Citizenfour), has come onboard with @thinkfilmimpact to share the important message of #NuclearNow with audiences across the world. ImageImageImage

I have this suspicion that there is an overwhelming silent majority who are not okay with the fictional narrative that “corona is over”, of the mass delusion that we can resume normality ignoring the real and present danger of #sars2. It takes immense strength to speak out.

1/
The #inconvenienttruth is the majority of us do not have agency over our own lives. We rely on a pay check to afford the basic necessities and pleasures. We’re social creatures who need connection with others, in person.

2/
It takes immense privilege to shelter from home, to opt out of the neoliberal’s mass infection policy making it impossible to not be exposed to #sars2 . Radical self-reliance locking out the world is a luxury most of us cannot afford.

So you've made that critical, brave decision to step up to the greatest challenge in human history. A #ClimateActionHero is always born asking the exact same question as those born before:

"So...what the heck do I do now?"

Take heart.

You're not alone.

This 🧵's for you
Answering a call to action (after first ignoring or refusing it) is textbook superhero origin story material, which means the first steps of your adventure are already taken. But Climate's been in popular culture since 2006. Something specific's compelling you now. What is it? /2
Something drove the point home to you. Activated you. Take a moment and enshrine it because you'll be explaining it time and time again, to allies, detractors, society's gate-keepers and even future #ClimateActionHeroes just like you. It's #TheBigWhy & every hero's got one /3

Two shocking eye-witness accounts corroborate something worse than we could have ever imagined. The @CapitolPolice appear to not only be responsible for the #death of multiple #protesters (which they lied about) but also for the #death of a fellow officer, #BrianSicknick.

.@wjhurst reveals #InconvenientTruth

"#China’s #coal-producing regions are critical to the political coalition #Xi has cobbled together since assuming power in 2012..frequently emphasizes the time he spent as a young man in the coal-producing region of northern #ShaanxiProvince"
In @Diplomat_APAC, @wjhurst explains #China's #copout26 @ #COP26Glasgow:

"Political support from sectors like #coal, dom. by state-owned industrial behemoths, is also..key. Unlike his predecessors..#Xi likely cannot afford to lose the support of SOEs..."

"Grasping for new tactics & strategies for growth, while..endeavoring to maintain its grip on power & transition to a new era of entrenched (&increasingly personalistic..) authoritarianism, the party is loath to commit to anything so risky as faster achievement of #climate goals"

I kinda think it's hillarious that @_SecondThought was intimidated by @DHSgov and shadowbanned by @YouTube re: criticism of the @CIA.

For all the wrong reasons...
[a thread]
For once, it's a chilling effect for anyone, espechally de-facto members of the #press [since @_SecondThought does #journalism, be is part of it] to intimidate them by a govt. agency like @DHSgov.

Not to mention that their accusation, "anti-americanism", is not a crime.
In any reasonable justice system, #NullaPeneSineLege applies, which means the government cannot do anything about something that isn't explicitly outlawed.

And last time I checked voicing criticism of politicans was not, @DHSgov!
