OMG, for BitMEX of all things?? I expected at least a fossil fuel company of some sort.

That’s one expensive hat.

Great stuff that should make material difference.

The amount of money spent on this race though… 🫨

Just a couple of notches above useless. It’s getting attention which is nice. But if this diverts people from paying attention to Bernie and AOC’s work, it might be worse than useless. Schumer said the caucus is proud of him. That’s not a good sign in my book, given where Schumer is on a set of issues and his recent actions.

Don’t forget antisemitic!

I used to think that too until I grasped how much intellectual labor goes into the process.

I’m educated properly and it takes me a very long time to sift through the mud to stay informed. Some of my friends are educated properly as well and they fall behind / fall for some bullshit because they don’t have the time to do the work. If they spend the time, they figure it out. And that’s the trick, education gives the capability, but one still needs to do the work in order to stay informed. Doing this work requires time available, and a steady mental health. Both of those are actively taken away by the ever increasing cost of living (demands of the system). And most have to do the same work to stay informed.

Yeah, that’s not a sustainable way to keep the majority informed. Most don’t have the availability to do this extra work between jobs and family.

Yes

So this sounds like a number they won’t be able to easily cover up.
