Bezos Is The Beast

Make sure to buy all the plastic shit you can afford during Prime Day before Lumpy's tariffs start, you fucking sheep. Doesn't that greedy fucking pig Bezos realize what'll happen to his Chinese crap business when they kick in?

Pamela Alma Weymouth / The Nation:

Pamela Weymouth / @pamelaweymouth.bsky.social:   I've always been fiercely private about my family.  Now I'm speaking out.  The newspaper my grandmother fought to protect is at risk.  I urge Bezos to consider the promise he made to defend The Washington Post from those who would silence voices of dissent www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Evan DeSimone / @mediaevan.bsky.social:   “My grandmother faced down an immoral president.  Bezos has chosen to go down as the man who destroyed The Washington Post—and dismantled its soul.” www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Lisa L. Owens / @lisalowens.bsky.social:   Enjoyed this by Katharine Graham's granddaughter, Pamela Alma Weymouth, which puts the legendary Washington Post publisher's legacy and role in fighting presidential corruption in historical/cultural context re that moment, and this one. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Bill Grueskin / @bgrueskin.bsky.social:   Katharine Graham's granddaughter has a withering assessment of the Washington Post's owner:  —  “Bezos could have honored the promise he made to protect this American institution.  —  “Bezos has chosen to go down as the man who destroyed the Post—and dismantled its soul.” www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Bill Grueskin / @bgrueskin.bsky.social:   She also notes the essential work by Post reporters:  —  “I too have considered canceling my Post subscription, but I haven't yet.  I see the journalists who continue to expose hard-hitting facts about the inhumane, unconstitutional actions of this administration.” www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Eduardo Suárez / @eduardosuarez.bsky.social:   “Real American patriotism does not force journalists to deliver government propaganda.  My grandmother was a real patriot; she protected the rights of her journalists to deliver the facts and speak their minds—without fear of censorship”  —  Kay Graham's granddaughter  —  www.thenation.com/article/soci...

@queenofmetrics.bsky.social:   This piece www.thenation.com/article/soci... brought tears to my eyes.  So true and so heartfelt.  My mom was, in fact, Ms Graham's best friend in boarding school.  And she too made bold tough decisions and I too never gave her credit for her strength.

Like everything else in this nation of money-grubbing scum, the First Amendment is for sale. Cheap.
