It is hard to counter this combo of cynicism and lying without bonafide candidates who can throw a punch.
If we want to beat a right wing that weaponizes (justified!) public anger at Big Pharma to destroy the social safety net + spread conspiracies, we can’t run Dems who take money from Big Pharma.

Some say the results of the election disprove that, but I think if you sit w the specific messages the opposition leaned into and what people heard, it is worth examining.
The RFK Jr / MAHA thing did resonate w/people. Naming big pharma, big ag, etc.
They’re a lying mess, but the words were there
One reason it isn’t discussed more is bc lots of money and influence relies on pressuring electeds into taking corporate money and rejecting/reversing these no-lobbyist $ pledges.
I know members who went back on their promise and later lost seats to GOP. Voters want ppl who stand up to corruption
In 2018 Dems elected the largest class to Congress since Watergate, ~60 seats.
A lot of it was, yes, Trump backlash. But the winners also had another thing in common, despite a wide range of differences: most rejected corporate PAC money.
It’s a hugely compelling factor to voters & underdiscussed

Signal alone is not enough. If you are an activist, you need a complete self-defense against surveillance. @eff.org has been maintaining these resources for years: ssd.eff.org
Good. It’s horrific how other platforms abused their reach to strangle local, independent, and national outlets alike.
I WANT to see news and actual vetted work and I WANT journalists to get rewarded for it.
Because I want to live in a thinking human world over some AI generated slop dystopia

Help us send 2,000 books to readers who are incarcerated this winter through our Books Not Bars program
He’s gonna call Elon next and give him $8 for a blue check 😂😂😂
“Drake has initiated legal action against Universal Music Group and Spotify over allegations that the two companies conspired to artificially inflate the popularity of Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us.’”

Thank you.
What are some accessible Infosec & Opsec resources that activists, journalists, and organizers can turn to in preparation for the Trump admin?
Preparing for a fascist regime can feel scary and paralyzing. This seems like an area where people can take control w/ concrete steps.

going to keep saying: it's important for basic functioning for a society to discourage baldfaced lying
The Meta thing is interesting because users have been vocally opposed to all these tweaks along the way & they have defended each one w/ metrics+engagement.
But when there’s competition, people are moving.
It’s a reminder that engagement ≠ enjoyment. Wonder what experts have to say about this ⬇️
Happy Thanksgiving week, everyone. We’ve been spending the last few days addressing food insecurity across NYC.
Shout out to our supporters, small-dollar contributors, and volunteers who make all this happen and help us support similar efforts across the country.
I am really grateful. ♥️ Thank you

Very interesting that crypto and AIPAC seemed to collaborate on so many races!

Incredible.
In addition to some of the recommendations below, you can hit up your member of Congress to send in an inquiry as well.
They can get a substantive and thorough answer if you aren’t able to get a response.
The other exploding area of dark money in politics is the crypto lobby.
They have dumped insane sums in elections in both parties (Dem primaries + GOP general elections).
It’s pretty bad
It's called cryptocurrency, but new FDIC data shows that most Americans don't use it as currency—they mainly hold on to it for price gains, not for transfers or purchases.

Really excited to listen to the new Kendrick album.
I’m waiting until I have the space and attention to listen to it all the way through uninterrupted, and give it the respect it deserves. Hopefully tomorrow
