Colbert should turn this into a country-wide tour, raising money for the development of more public access channels and local PBSes.
actually, if there is one thing rich Hollywooders and musical acts should do all across the country ―very loudly and proudly― is raising money for local public access radio & tv; especially college radio stations.
celebrity is social capital needed to re-develop locally what the monopolists destroyed nationally.

Okay, if this is real, this is worse than I was expecting. I've been thinking about secondary outputs but I've been thinking way more about plastics, inks, other secondaries.
I have been worried about products shortages but maybe not enough. I am and have been assuming that there will be preferential distribution to corporations (which obviously includes most freight) and least preference given to individuals trying to do their own work themselves - e.g., like RAM over the last several months. But I haven't thought about the price side of that.
And holy shit it's gonna get fugly.
So, uh, yeah.
Maybe buy an ebike. Maybe make some plans.

Today in Labor History May 10, 1933: The Nazis staged massive public book burnings, beginning in Berlin, with students from Humboldt University, destroying thousands of titles. German poet, Heinrich Heine, said back in the early 1800s, "Where one burns books, one will soon burn people." They burned books written by Jewish, half-Jewish, communist, socialist, anarchist, liberal, pacifist, lgbtq and sexologist authors. The first books burned were those of Karl Marx and Karl Kautsky. Many of the books that were burned were seized from the library of Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld, director of the Institute for Sexual Science (Institut für Sexualwissenschaft), which the Nazis raided in Berlin on May 6, 1933.

Report: Israeli soldiers said the army ordered troops to kill any man they encountered in Gaza from Oct 7 2023.
“A man, no matter what age, don’t play games with it; kill immediately," were the orders. "We need to kill him - yes, even if he is completely unarmed.”
“They even told us that if it’s a woman or a child, use your judgment, because things happen."

“Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” directed $6 billion toward AI-integrated surveillance towers at the border… recently announced plans to install 1,500 more towers over the next few years”
You. You’re the target of mass #surveillance towers, not illegal immigrants or asylum seekers and refugees.
They track your movements, your contacts, and your communications. They make it too dangerous to speak dissent or form community. It’s #fascism.
For those wondering where this current death cult came from:
The ideology worshipped by Musk, Thiel, et al. was embedded in the city state ~6000 yrs ago.
Its class-based slavery differed from before, when enemy men were killed & women & chn enslaved & "integrated".
The ideology demands that men kill & die for the king & that women produce the cannon fodder.
The ideology requires the violent repression of "soft" feelings for fellow humans & nature.

In America, that would have to include 3/4 of the Supreme Court, 3/4 of Congress, and all of the Republican party, or it would return, with more money and power than ever before. We have no checks and balances. The 21st century's curtain fell. The masks are off. We are ruled over by an oligarchy. A fascist nation to our core. Anything else was forced upon the fascists, who cannot lose the long game here, for they control money. Democrats are a weakling opposition party.
Our leaders are immoral. Our opposition is inept. Our people are awash in digitized lies. Truth is drowning.
Money, child rape, and power. The New American Century, as crafted by the big money from the old American century.
