"'Every time there’s a push for #ClimateAction, [we see] fossil fuel companies downplay and deny the harms of burning fossil fuels..."

The #fossilfuelcompanies dont want you to see graphs like this (see image)

They are very successful at it, I just saw it yesterday

Not funny that oil production makes so much profit that they can get away with producing pollution near the refineries. Texas, Louisiana and New Jersey come to mind

21% of adults in the United States are considered #illiterate

#issacasimov was saying the same, in the 1980s, but it was a feature not a bug

@DemocracyMattersALot

Gigabytes of data from the #heritagefoundation has been released somewhere, but to tell the truth, do we really need anything more than this? (see short ⭕video)

Don't get me wrong, the more evidence of Heritage Foundation #propaganda and #disinformation is a GOOD THING, because there are uninformed voters who get #misinformation from #newsmax #foxtv #oan etc

⭕Paul Weyrich _wanted_ more voter suppression, they are still playing this game

Project 2025 also includes the answer for why Trump will be a dictator this time...

#registertovote #voteblue #vote2024

#Project2025 info by #deanobeidallah on what a cluster plan it might do, like...

1. Replacing the entire federal bureaucracy, including independent agencies such as the DOJ,
under the direct control of the President

2. Ending civil service protections

3. Banning abortion and access to certain birth control

#RealPage allegedly replaces competitive decisionmaking on prices, with a #pricefixing
https://www.propublica.org/article/doj-backs-tenants-price-fixing-case-big-landlords-real-estate-tech

Not every use of an #algorithm to set price violates federal law, but it is unlawful when, competitors ⭕knowingly ⭕combine their nonpublic pricing and supply information in an #algorithm that they rely upon in making pricing decisions, with the expectation that other #competitors #landlords will do the same

@atomicpoet @samxavia

right, so many folks scream #meta bad #threads bad I have no idea how bad, it's just IMO, i dont want to subscribe to an #algorithm site

It seems that everytime I hear a mention of a #telegramchannel in a news story, it indirectly means, #telegram bad

IMO, Telegram is just a great email replacement for friends
