If the trump base donates $20 each, they can raise 1.4B overnight. That's a hypothetical to point out that:
- the Trump cabal doesn't really have financial problems: they have practically unlimited resources with the base
2.
- the American legal system doesn't have unbailable offenses. That means the worst murderers will be bailed out by the base because of the hate/resentment/racist mindset, and that will never change.
3. Look at Derek Chauvin: he looks defiantly at the camera as he executes George Floyd. That's murder with all aggravating circumstances. Yet, the judge has set a bail! The democratic world watches in horror because he was obviously going to be bailed out by the 70M fascists.
4. Kenosha murderer Rittenhouse, with at least 5 felonies caught on camera, was bailed out as well. How can a country call itself a democracy when its legal system is *that* dysfunctional, the democratic world cannot understand.
1. I have compiled a collection of online supplements-in-bulk retailers since @BulkSupps doesn't seem that interested in fixing the bugs on their website. They seem to be moving to a mobile-device-only store - I don't do phone stuff, ever, like most researchers.
2. Here are some sites that compiled online #supplement store competitors:
2. Since the 1980s, the Brazilian Black Movement adopted the day of Zumbi's death (and the end of the Palmares Quilombo) as their day of awareness and consciousness.
3. Zumbi died in the last of many military incursions of the Portuguese colonial forces against the Palmares Quilombo,
Think: in the 2008 crisis, banks appropriated thousands of single family properties and established the biggest real estate speculation scheme in US history. federalreservehistory.org/essays/glass_s….
2. It's happening again. The Dust Bowl social tragedy was caused by banks and speculation...
2. @WashArchbishop has been one of the compassionate and inclusive voices among religious leaders about transgender people, reassuring them that they belong in the Church and there is nothing wrong with them.
1. I'm originally from Brazil. Brazil is one of the countries with the highest unsafe abortion mortality rates. It has always been. When I was 16, a girl from our anti-fascist organization died from sepsis 2 days after her abortion. After that there were several.
2. Higher middle-class and rich women had safe and humane abortions. According to my mother (94 yrs old), in her days, middle-class women still had a chance of safer abortions but they were punished by not being given anesthesia.
3. That's the most perverse aspect of the authoritarian anti-abortion policy: deaths and long-term effects of complications.
1. The democratic/anti-fascist coalition depends on accepting allies we can march with only up to page three. The Left was bashed for being intolerant. This "#resister" blocked me just for sharing resources on the Left. He's unimportant but his actions are a symptom.
2. At this point in history, everybody is lumped into two groups: one very heterogeneous (ours) and one much more homogeneous (the trump side). I support the Biden-Harris ticket, I support other center or center-right candidates and projects. Up to page three,
3. ... but we are very far from page three. Until then, the whole point of a coalition is the march with circumstantial allies with a common objective: to defeat trump and stop the growth of fascism. I never confront centrist "resisters" for this reason.
