So do people realize that we aren't building new train tracks when we expand the amteak network, I have multiple times seen people say that we shouldn't expand the network because it would destroy protected lands, which would be a fair criticism but Amtrak doesn't build new tracks, we use existing tracks. We are not destroying protected lands, we are using land that has already been clear for a century

there's probably a better way of wording the last part but like come on it doesn't matter if we're all the same to fascists

Since the November Election, the three wealthiest men in the country (Musk, Zuckie, and Jeffery) increased their wealth by a collective 233 BILLION.

1 million seconds is 11.5 days. 1 Billion seconds is 31.5 years. If I made one dollar every second it would take me 7,383 YEARS to make a 233 billion dollars.

They did it in two month through exploitation, unethical practices, and being fucking losers.

As we see a barrage of evil executive orders come in, they are not immediately enforceable and will takes months or years to implement.

That’s still not great, but don’t let these pile up to the point of hopelessness. Take a breath, and look community leaders who will fight it every step of the way.

via NYPost: Immigration and Customs Enforcement is preparing to launch a “big f–king operation” across sanctuary cities — including Chicago and New York — immediately after President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, multiple sources told The Post.

Starting Jan. 21, multi-day “ground operations” will be launched across cities that have served as safe havens for migrants because the local authorities do not cooperate with the federal government when it comes to immigration issues, sources said.

Wow, how shocking the far right guy from an actual apartheid state who supports the far right German party and believes Jews foment hatred against whites did a Nazi salute at the inauguration. So shocking. I’m absolutely floored.

Look at what America First Post is tweeting. If you don't know, they're a disgusting MAGA news site.

So I looked it up, and this is what I could find from a better source:

Look, there will be deportations. This administration will hurt people. Don't think they won't. And yet, if instant reporting and backlash sparked them to at least reconsider their immediate plans to arrest people as part of a big, showy PR raid, then that says they're not actually as invulnerable to public opinion as they pretend to be. Fighting back isn't completely pointless and reporting on their bullshit is still important

Discipline is the strongest form of self love. It’s ignoring current pleasures for bigger rewards to come. It’s loving yourself enough to do whatever you need to do, to give yourself everything you’ve ever wanted. It’s giving up the good for the great. It’s about being relentless and having tunnel vision. It’s about believing in the long game and knowing you will accomplish the things you want.

U.S. conservatives always talk about creating jobs but get SO MAD whenever anyone mentions banning prison labor like imagine the insane ammout of jobs that would be created literally overnight if companies in your country had to actually employ people instead of using slave labor from people that got caught with weed 10 years ago.
