This is the third time Trump has said that grass has “life like humans.” He is close to embracing the truth of 無情佛性 (wúqíng fóxìng), the Buddha-like nature of all things, and rejecting the false binary of sentience/insentience.

Brazilian Supreme Court: We’re not going to let you steal this election, we’re extending voting by two hours. Bolsonaro: It’s illegal if you don’t let me cheat.
BREAKING: Flávio Bolsonaro: It is impossible to recognize the election results in the context of how these things happened. We are going to use our legal team, we are going to request the annulment of these elections.

Real heads have known for years that the Cuban exile community killed JFK after he botched the Bay of Pigs invasion and threatened a bunch of tax loopholes that oil companies and right wing, anti Castro media relied on at the time. Now if you want to know something really crazy…
Jesse Ventura talked about meeting Fidel Castro. Jesse also told Hasan about the last 20 minutes of his conversation with Fidel, where Jesse asked Fidel what he thought about JFK's assassination. Fidel told Jesse that he thought it was an inside job.

Many people believe that Ray Washburne’s great grandfather in law, HL Hunt, financed the assassination of JFK after CIA hardliners soured on him for failing to provide air support during the failed Bay of Pigs invasion. People believe that Hunt paid Cuban exile mercenaries and…

Castro might’ve known details about JFKs assassination plot because the Cuban exile community was filled with veterans of the Escambray Rebellion, which was effectively lost that same year. Castro would have had signals intelligence on these men.

Lula should kick off his presidency and send a message to the U.S. and its cronies by sending oil to Cuba

AOC. Sheinbaum. Lula. Manifest this. A workers led return to an industrial mode where the Western Hemisphere is reliant on its own energy and mineral resources, and the US has ended its colonization in the Middle East. It could happen if we try.

Brazil and Mexico need to forge closer economic ties to serve as a counterweight to the US in the Western Hemisphere. Prioritize domestic consumption and demand to be included in the higher end of the value chain when doing business with America.
BREAKING: Lula wins re-election as president of Brazil, defeating Flávio Bolsonaro in the runoff.

Brazil’s results tonight are a big endorsement for the idea that every country should have a second “are you you sure about that” election a couple weeks after the first one for the important stuff

- Fans pay for the stadiums through taxes - Fans get screwed by the owners, box office, and shady third party ticket sellers It’s been this way my entire life. What exactly is the value proposition of privatized professional sports?
The sickening stories keeping coming in…😢😢😢 SHAME ON YOU, @StubHub. Imagine being a kid, a HUGE @Brewers fan, and finding out you’re going to see your team play in the WORLD SERIES! ⚾️💙💛 The excitement. The anticipation. The memories you’re already imagining making. Now imagine having that excitement ripped away because a company sold your 3 tickets that you bought, that they apparently can’t deliver. That’s exactly what we’re dealing with right now. We purchased THREE tickets to the Milwaukee Brewers World Series for Game 1 last Tuesday(13th) through StubHub. We selected our section, our row, paid for our tickets, and received our order confirmation. Everything was supposed to be set. Then suddenly, StubHub tells us they’re “searching for replacement options” because they can’t provide the tickets we purchased. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! How does a company accept someone’s hard earned money, confirm a purchase, and then turn around and say they can’t fulfill it?! And their solution? We can request a refund while they continue looking for tickets. THIS ISN’T ABOUT THE MONEY. It’s about the experience. It’s about the memories. It’s about the excitement of a kid, his dad, and grandpa, who thought they were going to watch their favorite baseball team play on the biggest stage in baseball. Look at the first picture. That’s the disappointment you’re creating, StubHub. A refund doesn’t replace that moment. And here’s what really bothers me… StubHub advertises a “FanProtect Guarantee” and tells customers their orders are “100% guaranteed.” Guaranteed WHAT, exactly?! Because from where we’re sitting, that guarantee doesn’t feel worth much when you can’t deliver the tickets you sold us. We did everything right. We purchased through a major ticket marketplace. We trusted the confirmation. We trusted the guarantee. Now it’s time for StubHub to make it right. We aren’t asking for anything extra. We want the three tickets we paid for, or comparable or better seats together, at no additional cost. Stubhub…DO BETTER. Please SHARE this. Not just for us, but for every fan who has trusted a ticket company with an experience that means so much more than the price of admission. ℹ️Brandon Barker

Republicans using the f-word (“freedom”) to convince Brazilians to vote for Bolsonaro as if it wasn’t the American right that forced a military dictatorship onto Brazil in the 20th century. Tell me: how “free” was life in the Fifth Republic compared to life under João Goulart?
Brazil’s choice today will echo far beyond its borders. The Brazilian people are choosing what kind of country they want to leave their children: one shaped by socialism, or one built on freedom, security and opportunity. I stand with Flávio Bolsonaro and with every Brazilian making their voice heard today. A stronger, freer Brazil means a stronger, freer hemisphere. Que Deus abençoe o Brasil! 🇧🇷

In the US under capitalism, you can be enslaved by the state as long as you have been convicted of a crime. Sounds like an easy path to avoid, but in practice the economic opportunities that capitalism has destroyed leads to increased crime, thus increased slavery, and so on…
Under communism, the government owns the property, the paycheck, and eventually the PERSON. In America, freedom belongs to you. Let’s keep it that way.
