This was my MySpace tagline 20 years ago. Glad to see it still lands.

Typically, yes. It’s best to just double-check the ingredients list for those two chemicals. I don’t trust advertising.

Oh for sure. We even contribute on a smaller scale by using sunscreen containing oxybenzone or octinoxate when swimming near reefs. The latter also breaks down into a carcinogen and hormone disrupter.

I’m focused on the largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions (when you account for overseas manufacturing), who left the Paris Climate Agreement, cancelled renewable energy subsidies, and is actively repealing EPA regulations to drive profits in the private sector.

But yes, other corporations are contributing as well. They just pale in comparison.

David Hogg, the new Vice Chair of the DNC, has allocated $20M to primary out the old appeasers, and replace them with youthful progressives to create a true opposition party.

Democratic primaries only see ~20% turnout in congressional elections. 30/50 states have partisan primaries, meaning you must be registered as a Democrat to vote in the Democratic primary. This was a contributing factor in Bernie’s 2016 loss.

Rather than progressives and leftists fracturing over third-parties, we need to all block vote progressives into the Democratic Party through primaries and replace the deadwood centrists that have been content with the status quo.
