Now we’ve got the techlords aligned against us too, because apparently a few billion isn’t enough in one’s bank account, everyone wants “as many billions as Elon” in order to feel “manly”

We communicate largely through social media—which is controlled by algorithms.

We’re trying. We really are.

Please help us if you can!

@ReggieHere @ChrisMayLA6 Democracy can't afford to lose the consent of so many people, even when they are a clear minority. Democracy struggles to survive the levels of angry alienation which the lockdown era piled onto the social devastation of 40 years of vicious neoliberalism.

When people still can't get the basics of decent and affordable housing and food&energy prices are wild, it's near impossible to counter the hate-fuelled scapegoating. #EndRant 😀

@jodiem

So the problems are:
- white male supremacy
- capitalism
- racism
- sectarianism

Once we get that sorted women might be listened to & not labelled as mad, bad, assertive, a bitch, a witch, a lover, hysterical, crazy, emotional.

I do not care about your credentials or parents - sir or maam - I care about your competence.

Are you a good person who does good work?

If not, do better. Shut up & Listen

#endrant as if 😆

So that I am not vagueposting: I was told by someone to "back off the AI policing" after I pointed out that the crochet pattern they shared is AI generated and doesn't actually exist. I follow many wonderful crafting people online, and I love crochet. I just don't get why someone knowingly shares crap like that.
