Lee J. Carter‏ @carterforva 2h2 hours ago




Civility means politely accepting the violence imposed upon us by the ruling class. Endless war isn't civil. Union busting isn't civil. Gentrification isn't civil. Starvation wages aren't civil. The corporate agenda isn't civil.

We shouldn't be either.

Why was “the new rules could also lead to as many as 1,400 premature deaths annually“ In the article Replaced with this “EPA says the rules will take at least 1400 American lives a year”

I never said he was a bad guy. I’m saying that someone changed the original article wording. Therefore twisting the fact. Therefore that tweet was not factual. Those two sentences don’t have the same meaning.
