Yesterday, Aaron Bushnell, an active-duty member of the Air Force and an anarchist, set fire to himself in front of the Israeli embassy in #DC, in what they called an "extreme act of protest" against the ongoing genocide and ethnic-cleansing of #Gaza by the state of Israel.

Bushnell was involved in various mutual aid projects.

Already, far-Right grifters and pundits have attacked his anarchist beliefs as signs of him being mentally "disturbed."

Bushnell's death comes as Israel prepares to invade #Rafah, where over a million Palestinian refugees have been pushed into tent cities.

I think I will always remember the death of Aaron SWARTZ. Until then I was a proud but simple user of free software, but this was the first time I REALLY realised the violence of the opponents of the free circulation of knowledge, I was shocked.

Since then I try to be as conscious as possible in my choices, to put money and time into what serves a cause that is beyond me but in more human formats, to choose and promote only projects that serve the digital commons (and beyond) 🖖
