Since the age of the internet, we are all publishers, each of us bears some private responsibility for the public's sense of truth.
Things that Require Our Focus (In No Specific Order):
- Genocide in Gaza
- War in Ukraine
- Fascists Paramilitary Disappearing People or Sending them to Concentration Camps
- School Shootings
- The Epstein Files
- Rising Inflation and the FED Giving Up on the Economy
- Surveillance Capitalism & the Surveillance State
- Environmental Destruction
- Militant Right Violence
- American Citizens Losing Their Rights
- Nazis, White Supremacists, and Fascists Feeling Safe and Secure in the Regime
Edit: replaced FED with Fed as it is not an abbreviation.
Climate change should probably be on there, too
See Environmental Destruction
I honestly missed that in the list. We have too many huge problems :(
There is actually an interesting phenomenon that happens when we read long lists. We tend to skim the middles and only really read the tops and bottoms.
I always figured that the life support systems for most or all life on earth should be priority one through one hundred, with all other issues (yes, ALL) being a non-concern until the thing that will literally kill us all in the short/medium term is addressed. I'm just weird like that, I guess.
It’s the bottom bitch of the big issues. But interestingly, we can’t really make progress on it without clearing the table of some of these joker politicians. That’s why, weirdly, I’d put the Epstein Files above environmental destruction on the prioritized list.
No we're far too busy to think about that right now. Maybe some day soon, when we've solved our more pressing problems.
