So, @naomiaklein.bsky.social and @ayanaeliza.bsky.social are two of the smartest people on our planet, and they were kind enough to include me in this nifty conversation!
This episode’s a banger, y’all. From data center resistance and our right to an uncluttered night sky, to lessons from Standing Rock and Memphis, and disaster capitalism redux. @billmckibben.bsky.social and @naomiaklein.bsky.social are always worth a listen. pod.link/1773809532/e...

"So, in Alaska, if Peltola wins, her victory is inherently suspect and must be investigated. And in Minnesota, if Flanagan bests Tafoya, her victory is inherently suspect b/c Trump has declared that Tafoya can’t lose, period, unless Dems cheat. This is the long, stupid shadow of the 2020 election."

60 people have now died in ICE custody since Trump's return to office. Our country is set to spend $268 BILLION on mass deportations and detentions through the end of Trump's term. Instead of death and cruelty, imagine what we could have invested that money in instead?
