Governments and corporations will soon know you better than you know yourself. Belief in the idea of β€˜free will’ has become dangerous
– by Yuval Noah Harari

'...What’s more, liberalism is now attacked by religious and nationalist fanatics who believe in nostalgic fantasies that are far more dangerous and harmful.

So should I speak my mind openly, risking that my words could be taken out of context and used by demagogues and autocrats to further attack the liberal order? Or should I censor myself? It is a mark of illiberal regimes that they make free speech more difficult even outside their borders. Due to the spread of such regimes, it is becoming increasingly dangerous to think critically about the future of our species...'

'...β€œThere’s no other conceivable way a Chinese takeaway could get into the prison other than by a drone.

β€œThat’s what the staff in the jail believe anyway. The food containers were found about six weeks ago.

β€œPrison staff were left scratching their heads as to how it got there and a drone was the only possible explanation.

β€œIt goes to show inmates will go to great lengths to get what they want.”...'

Cambridge Analytica, revenge porn, cyber-bullying, data-harvesting; in recent years the Internet has strayed far from its revolutionary community-building potential. Seven years after igniting the global phenomenon of Occupy Wall Street, Adbusters Media Foundation is launching #OCCUPYSILICONVALLEY, a worldwide campaign designed to take on Big Tech's four most powerful coporations β€” Alphabet (Google), Amazon, Apple, and Facebook β€” and examine the effects their policies have on our social, political, and personal lives.

#MondayAnarchy #Anarchism

Should I revive this #MondayAnarchy mastodon effort, or not? Many months ago I initiated this to start a conversation around anarchism or socialism etc starting every monday (when people are annoyed with going to work).

Continue? What should be the next question? theme? or issue?

Disillusioned by the toxic culture of the Left

'If you’ve ever worked with oppressed groups, such as people who are homeless, abused, addicted or suffering from mental health problems, there's one thing you learn straight away. They usually don't frame their worldviews in terms of academic theories students learn in gender studies classes in university...they tend to not analyse their experiences in terms of systemic power and privilege...'
'The left is destroying people's lives and censoring free speech, and I'm sick of it'

I've been involved in activism since the Occupy Movement of 2011. Over the years this has included anti-capitalist, labour and feminist organising, as well as coordinating a local Food Not Bombs chapter, a number of direct actions against big oil (in solidarity with First Nations people), and prisoner justice campaigns.

Is there any progress because of #capitalism or does the good 'balance' off from the bad? eg iPhones are great but children mine coltane in Congo.
