Tax the rich.

Not taxing the rich has given us fascism and oligarchs.

“Why should a French or a German citizen be born with access to world-class services and well-protected rights (actual implementation on the basis of minority status may differ), while a Somalian citizen is not only denied those things, but also faces huge obstacles in becoming a citizen (or even a resident) of anywhere else? If you are born a citizen of Japan, there are 190 countries you can travel to freely without a visa; if you are a citizen of Afghanistan, there are only 25. If you are born a U.K. citizen, and feel like a change of scene, you can pay $7 for permission to go to Canada, hop on a flight, and stay for up to six months without anyone bothering you. If you are born in a refugee camp, it can take years before you even get a chance to live in a place like Canada. So how can we possibly consider ourselves to be people who care about freedom and autonomy, when thanks to borders our destinies are practically assigned to us at birth? Is it absurd to form your own state? Or is it more absurd to have states in the first place?”

The fact that I've already seen people pin Musk's "blunder" on his autism is deplorable. Really goes to show how whiteness and wealth interacts with perceptions of disability versus how disabled and poor people of color are treated.

A Black or brown person is autistic and sincerely having difficulties? People, and law enforcement foremostly, are quick to label them as violent threats.

People of color with disabilities, (or even those perceived as "weird") especially if they're poor or homeless, are always on thin ice, knowing they are never given the benefit of the doubt or any grace for honest mistakes, while that demon can make a Nazi salute and have his followers clamber to baby him and make excuses for him.

Noor's son, Mohammed, is disabled and needs daily treatment. He had been receiving regular physical therapy before the attacks in Gaza and he quickly deteriorated during the genocide. His mother is raising funds for him (vetted here) as their resources have been depleted. Please donate here.
