    The Sanders side has been its own greatest undoing and it was totally unnecessary. Literally just required a willingness to listen more, harass less and make more direct appeals to Black people w/ the communications strategy instead of celebrating Joe Rogan. Hate to see it.

    The “lying press” is the enemy of the people. Just like the speeches Hitler gave at mass rallies back in the 1930’s. This man is dangerous. He needs to go.

    The New York Times is an embarrassment to journalism. They were a dead paper before I went into politics, and they will be a dead paper after I leave, which will be in 5 years. Fake News is the Enemy of the people!

    "Embrace of the Serpent" is easily the most profound piece of anti-colonial cinema I've seen. It's an astute diagnosis of the culture that has wrought such destruction for the past 500 years, and a film that pulses with relevance as our world burns.

    Trumpism isn’t about passing legislation, building walls, or addressing problems like a pandemic or economic inequality. It’s a post-political, white supremacist, authoritarian movement solely concerned with dismantling governance in order to retain power and further profit.

    Factoid: There's a whole other chapter/story I'd come up with that takes place between Chapters 4 and 5 for Little Bird which we couldn't do for a myriad of reasons. Perhaps if people still care about this book 10 years from now, we'll do it.
