(1/2) Next Phase of the #TrumpCoup

Absolutely correct.

And, even more importantly, companies need political *stability*.
Bringing the #US to the brink of the #NextCivilWar 1) with a 72% 2) chance of #Trump invoking the #InsurrectionAct 3)), possibly on April 20th, is exactly the opposite.
I'm sure his #TechOligarch bros have been telling him...

I am thinking of an alternative to google pixel phones, since #GrapheneOS only uses #Pixel devices. I wonder if there is a way to #UnplugTrump in the smartphone sense. Not only that, but I guess this will be another beast since the #techoligarch s have a firm grip on that.

Headed for technofascism’: the rightwing roots of Silicon Valley

“An influential Silicon Valley publication runs a cover story lamenting the “pussification” of tech. A major tech CEO lambasts a Black civil rights leader’s calls for diversifying the tech workforce. #Technologists rage against the “PC police”.

No, this isn’t #SiliconValley in the age of Maga. It’s the tech industry of the 1990s, when observers first raised concerns about the rightwing bend of Silicon Valley and the potential for “#technofascism”. Despite the industry’s (often undeserved) reputation for #liberalism, its reactionary foundations were baked in almost from the beginning. As Silicon Valley enters a second Trump administration, the gendered roots of its original reactionary movement offer insight into today’s rightward turn.”

‘Headed for technofascism’: the rightwing roots of Silicon Valley

The industry’s liberal reputation is misleading. Its reactionary tendencies – celebrating wealth, power and traditional masculinity – have been clear since the dotcom mania of the 1990s

#Merz gibt den #Trump!
Echt widerlich, wie er jetzt populistisch harte Anti-Flüchtlingspolitik durchboxen will, um das mit #Bots, #KI und Trollen sowie Hilfe von #TechOligarch|en hochgekochte Thema #Migration als #Wahlkampf-Booster zu nutzen.
Dabei fehlt es schon jetzt an Kompetenz, Personal und Strukturen, um sich ankündigende Gewalttaten zu verhindern.
Und "stärkere Kontrolle von psychisch Kranken, die mit Medikamenten ruhiggestellt werden" trifft sogar demente Alte! 😮

Brandmauer fällt, Union bringt nächste Woche Migrationsplan in Bundestag ein

Die Unionsfraktion bringt nächste Woche Antrag zur Migration in Bundestag ein und akzeptiert damit Zustimmung mithilfe der AfD. Das bestätigte die CDU gegenüber der Berliner Zeitung.

Irgendwie bin ich jetzt schon stolz, seit Jahrzehnten Linux zu nützen und immer etwas skeptischer großen Datenkraken gegenüber gewesen zu sein. Das "ich hab ja nichts zu verbergen" funktioniert angesichts zunehmender autoritärer Staatlichkeit gepaart mit Techoligarchie einfach nicht mehr so gut.

Welcome to the era of gangster tech regulation

Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Jeff Bezos are awfully cozy with Donald Trump, suddenly. It’s almost as though tech regulation is up for sale.

#TikTok"s CEO will be at the inauguration of the first convicted-fellon president-elect, jointly with the fascist #TESCREAL #TechOligarch, #Elmo.

As you know from your history classes, what is the most important strategy in the rise of fascism?--The #Alignment of society (#Gleichschaltung.)

With #SuckerBerg having joined the #MAGA fray this week, the unholy alliance of them and the #fascist #Longtermist #Musk #TechBros, #TikTok is priceless for them.
