Hundreds of thousands have already lost their lives because of USAID cut: millions more expected over the next 4 years.
The system rewarded the architect with over a trillion dollars, on a set of companies that produces next to no profit and survive off subsidies.

Finally, bluesky has group chats!
Capitalism can’t function with monopolies and oligopolies. What we have is a plutocracy.

Tax reform needs to happen as a matter of priority.
Every media outlet is groveling at Musk’s feet about SpaceX’s IPO. Regardless of whether it’s Aljazeera or the BBC.
No mention of how Musk encouraged race riots that have terrorized the United Kingdom.
A dereliction of journalistic duty.
The USA is forever changed.

On Twitter as @raulpacheco and pre-2015 as @hummingbird604
I can’t express how shocked and sad this news makes me.
I met Raul in the early 2010s as an undergrad at UBC, Vancouver.
We moved to different continents, but continued to be engaged online and link up when possible.
He helped shape me as both an academic and climate policy work.
Gone too soon.
In remembrance
@raulpachecovega.bsky.social death is under investigation as there were reported signs of violence.
Dr. Raul Pacheco-Vega deserved so much better. I hope justice is served.

The court has effectively ruled that severely disabled people are not entitled to the same standards of liberty because they allegedly can't experience it fully. A bizarrely regressive ruling on rights
It even implies non-resistance as possible consent: an extremely dangerous view for all victims
Héctor Pacheco Vega fue encontrado sin vida en un motel de León. La investigación avanza tras la identificación del cuerpo.
