I am LIVING for this #China vs luxury brands drama. I guess #Hermes is trying to sue their supplier for exposing the scam. thanks for confirming the Chinese were telling the truth #grifters!!

I would be so angry if I purchased these items, but since I don’t and the only people I know personally who buy luxury goods are people who can’t afford them, I think this is hilarious. I know one lady who’s never worked a job in her life who made her #LouisVuitton luggage that she got from her sugar daddy her whole entire personality for years. Embarrassing.

Yes, the UK can do a deal with this man, this is a safe deal, a GOOD deal, yes.../s

"Replycator" accounts rip content off other accounts and repost as their own while reply spamming, attempting to farm and agitate Western right-wing audiences, including in the UK, while originating in places like India. I present three examples among those I identified and analysed using OSINT.

“Progress is inevitable“ - STWF Bad Ideas ep 5 ft. George Monbiot

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVLNATrU6JQ

I like the way Monbiot frames the current situation, he's got a bit of non-doomer #capitalocene framing. It's still not critical enough for me, but I appreciate it.

Fascism is capitalism in decline, but maybe it's also carnism in decline. I'm not sure how the goal of inclusiveness and "belonging" can be met while we exclude non-human sentient individuals from moral consideration and, instead, treat them as objects, commodities and capital. It just sets up a bad culture, a bad paradigm. The reason we criticize "dehumanization" is because mainstream cultures and related civilizations treat non-humans absolutely horrible.

Raise the moral floor.

#SchoolVounchers passed the #txlege last night / this morning -__- This is gonna hit rural areas harder and faster than it does suburban and urban areas. The domino effect is exactly what these ghouls want, eventually siphoning off *all* public monies for education into private hands.

The #Grifters running #Amerikkka are calling public media a grift! Probably because they embrace DEI and aren't afraid to criticize the #Fascist administration! This will not only cripple or destroy #PublicTelevision stations, #CommunityRadio like #WMPG also receives money from the #CPB!!!

White House calls #NPR and #PBS a “grift,” will ask Congress to rescind funding

By Jon Brodkin, April 15, 2025

Excerpt: "In a statement provided to Ars today, PBS CEO Paula Kerger said that 'the effort underway to get Congress to rescind public media funding would disrupt the essential service PBS and local member stations provide to the American people. There's nothing more American than PBS, and our work is only possible because of the bipartisan support we have always received from Congress... Without PBS member stations, Americans will lose unique local programming and emergency services in times of crisis.' "

I was interested in seeing this film until I asked #DRCNH what airborne virus mitigations are in place.

This pissed me off. I actually replied that of course I’m welcome to wear a mask because I have a [fucking] doctors note and I don’t believe in eugenics so I will always be wearing a mask. Then I asked her how hand sanitizer stops the spread of measles.

I’m sure she won’t answer me. This organization is trash. I won’t cry if they get defunded.

‘It can break you’: life for parents of autistic children can be exhausting. One podcast is offering hope. Is it real?

When cruel grifters prey upon the desperate.

And I am officially done with the dems AT ALL.

I got verbally attacked this morning for opting out of publically testifying for a bill that would have actually made my life worse if it existed when I needed body autonomy.

Angry but also embarrassed because I was dumb. I got scammed. She used childfree people for support, then wrote us out of the bill, then she came at me because my testimony isn’t even applicable to the bill anymore.

#Rightwing Propaganda Peddlers Keep Stooping to UNTHINKABLE New Lows

This reminds me of a great scene from "The Big Short":

"I don't get it. Why are they confessing?"

"They are not confessing."

"They are bragging."

The best thing on X right now is dieworkwear on X for roasting #MAGA influencers like Alex Jones, DC Draino and Patrick Betdavid - who praise #tariffs and local production hard while their T-shirt and merch gigs quietly outsource to #Mexico and beyond.

As always, ‘#America First’ is more like ‘#Profits First’, and there's nothing these #grifters won't do to earn an extra buck.

This has real consequences already--kids are dying of preventable disease.
