Right now, utility companies are forcing local communities to subsidize the massive energy demands of AI data centers while billionaires rake in the profits.

Utility companies and tech giants are not building their infrastructure just anywhere. They are targeting communities that are predominantly minority, economically disinvested, and politically underserved.

This is environmental racism. For decades, minority, economically disinvested, and politically underserved communities have been treated like sacrifice zones. Corporations dump pollution, build dangerous infrastructure, and extract wealth while leaving residents with higher bills, worse health outcomes, and fewer resources. Now it is happening again, this time to power the AI boom.

No matter what political you ascribe to, we must all understand that the financial policies of this administration are on course to tank the American economy!!! In roughly 2 years, this administration has increased the National Debt by 30%‼️ While we all pay more for EVERYTHING, and get much less in return, the oligarchs’ wealth increases by the millisecond!! THIS IS NOT RIGHT!!! Republicans and Democrats alike, will suffer!
