Watch as they laughed and tried to silence George Carlin in the 90s. No-one's laughing now. #GeorgeCarlin

Protests have erupted in Paraguay after a solvency crisis with Ueno Bank left 60% of the people unable to access their money and savings accounts. As one protester put it: “They left us without money, without anything, and now they want to kill us too.”

The outrage in Paraguay is massive, 60% of people have lost all their money because the National Bank collapsed due to the corrupt Right Wing Government who were robbing it. There are even people in wheelchairs confronting riot police. Take back Paraguay from the thieves.

Ppl always forget that the 13th Amendment allows slavery: "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, EXCEPT as a punishment for crime" I think this is why we have the largest prison pop. on Earth: 1.8-2 M ppl => 5% of Earth's total pop. but ~20% of the world's prisoners

For anyone confused, here's a sketch about it
kinda reminds me of how if you think about it for more than two seconds you realize that the entire economic system we live in was built around slavery and has been scrambling for slavery-replacement for like 150 years

Bye! We don't need AI. We survived for hundreds of thousands of years without it. The issue with AI is that it's stumping human creativity and it's also destroying the environment. Why would people embrace that?

Enough is enough. Hakeem Jeffries actively opposes Medicare for All because he and most of his party takes bribes from big insurance companies. Join the more than 300,000 people who have signed the petition below to Stop Jeffries from becoming Speaker!
270,000 people have already signed the petition to STOP HAKEEM JEFFRIES from becoming speaker. Democrats are not going to get away with their corporatist agenda anymore. The people are waking up and done with the corruption in both parties!!! c.org/hGcqfLkdSK

I think this is a very good time for people to watch Mehdi Hasan's debate with Oxford Prof. Emeritus Nigel Biggar.
Kemi Badenoch says the British Empire was “overall a force for good”. It shipped 3.2 million Africans in chains, drained an estimated $45 trillion from India and left taxpayers paying enslavers’ bill for 180 years. She looked at a crime against humanity and called it a favour.

This is why you boycott Israeli products.
Video footage shows Israeli settlers processing large quantities of olives inside a press, following the looting and seizure of harvests from Palestinian lands in the West Bank.

Video games are in danger, except the parts you hate - @mugthieftv speaks about the EU kids Act. Moritz Katzner of #StopKillingGames and Paul Diegel of #StopKillingInternet explain how Stop Killing Games is fighting back in a wider alliance to build public pressure against the European Commission and the Kids Act with Stop Killing the Internet.
