The Logically Left Pissed Off Bear - 🏳️‍🌈 ✊🏿

1/ During the anti-woke era there were many independent journalists that I feel made money off the backs of Black misery. Books like White Fragility were mocked. Affirmative Action/DEI itself was attacked. They shouldn't be let off the hook. How u make ur money matters.

@barbarismcrit Jellyfin all the way. I used to use Plex, but it started to get annoying at the lack of advancement of decoders plus some other shenanigans. I might also use it to ditch YouTube Music and go back to locally hosted music that I can stream to other devices.

Plex!

Now would you look at that. Today they finally made a video. 🧐😁

2/ You can take a look now and see just how many videos appear about civil rights. You won't find many. The gutting of the Voting Rights Act is THE biggest deal. You're talking about centuries of legislative battles. But it doesn't seem like independent media cares... AT ALL.

@eternallyRaq Eww. Well good luck girl.

Mallory McMorrow just got up and called Gen Z stupid. Interesting campaign strategy… don’t think it’ll work. (Because she needs those same Gen Z voters!!!)

@EoinHiggins_ Big time congrats! 😀🥳

@MyDogMonkey Nope. Many of them had bipartisan support. Party line voting back then wasn't anywhere near it is today.

@Logically_Left All of those things happened with a filibuster-proof majority. What are you doing to get more Senators elected from red states?

When all of the accomplishments happened before you're born that's not helping your case. Gay marriage was SCOTUS because there was a gay Republican justice, and the other was RomneyCare. So yeah. This isn't even incrementalism this is doing nothing for seven decades.

Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about their decision.

En Francia, grabaron uno de los contenedores de basura de la cadena alimenticia Carrefour, donde desechan todo tipo de alimentos comestibles para seguir el bucle consumista y no bajar los precios. Mientras más de 2,300 millones de personas en el mundo (29.3%) padecen de hambre, 1300 millones de toneladas de comida producida al año (1/3 del total) es desechada para la especulación de los capitalistas. Asi es como la burguesía capitalista mantiene sus beneficios, especulando con el hambre, porque en el capitalismo el derecho a la alimentación no existe, solo es negocio.

@patrick_mooney VBNMW is cult behavior. lol getting mad at leftists for having "purity tests" is cult behavior. telling us we can't criticize Democrats in an election year because it'll ruin their chances & in a non-election year because it'll ruin their poll numbers is cult behavior.

Javier Bardem on Susan Sarandon getting fired by her agent after speaking out about Israel’s actions in Gaza: "That tells you how wrong this whole system is. She was one of the first ones to go there. And then she got that professional punishment." Bardem says he’s “heard things” about facing similar consequences for speaking out: "'They were going to call you about that project, but that’s gone. Or This brand was going to ask you to do the campaign, but they cannot.' It’s fine. I live in Spain. American studios are not the only place." wp.me/pc8uak-1lHdk7

“There’s one thing more powerful than a billionaire – and it’s a union.” Hours before the 2026 Met Gala, which was sponsored by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, union organisers put on a ‘Ball Without Billionaires’ in New York, featuring Amazon delivery drivers, warehouse workers and campaigners. “Working people are underpaid, undervalued and under-appreciated,” said co-host Gabriella Karefa-Johnson. “Let those billionaires uptown have their Met party – we’re going to have something way more fabulous down here!”

@MalarkeyControl That did't give anyone new rights. You might want to actually READ what that bill did.

This always cracks me up! 🫑😂😭

Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more. Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged. Here's what happened: Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it." And the exact emails are now PUBLIC. Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem. The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately." Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call. Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price. Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed. Same playbook with Hanes: Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased." Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins. But it gets even worse... Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site. Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing. They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS. The mechanism is simple but terrifying: If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers. Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings." Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products. Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform. So turns out, you were never comparison shopping. You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors. "Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable." 3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on. This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat. And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE. "Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.

Nobody wants data centers. Absolutely nobody. When politicians do this they are 100% in the pocket of big tech and do not care one bit what their voters want.

Obama will be remembered as the American Gorbachev, the charismatic, well-intentioned leader feted by the world but who, by failing to address crisis levels of inequality, elite impunity and corruption, hastened US national decline.
