The system isn’t working. The response is collective action. When millions act together, we can create change, together. For our families. For our communities. For our democracy. Pledge to take action this #MayDay: workers.fyi/UCS

🔋🚗 Over a million EVs are already on the road—and counting. That increase will create a demand for more battery materials. Recycling older batteries from retired EVs could meet a good amount of that new demand, and doing so will mean less mining, which is a win for communities and the environment.

This is political satire—not a Jewish control trope—and it lands because Americans recognize it. Some will label it antisemitic to dodge criticism—that’s a way uncomfortable commentary gets shut down. But when something hits SNL stage this hard, it’s tapping into broader popular culture sentiment.🤦🏿‍♂️

Mainstream media is not fit for purpose. Let’s build something better… a new “civic layer” of media to serve our citizens, communities and nations better. It has to be for public good, not profit. It has to given citizens themselves the agency & tools. And it has to grow from the bottom up.
