It's difficult to find help; everyone lets me down. My son is sick and needs $200 for treatment. I don't want to lose my son because of Asthma, please don't let me down. Every minute that passes is dangerous for my son. 😭🫂

"Freedom of speech is always under attack by Fascist mentality, which exists in all parts of the world, unfortunately."

Had a blast watching Legal Eagle's summary of the Afroman lawsuit. I even learned a thing or two about freedom of speech.

That said, the guy still has to pay legal fees, not to mention a new gate and front door, so go watch Lemon Pound Cake with no ad blocker I guess? Crazy times we live in...

@newsgroup 🔥 The Illusion of "Free" Speech on Centralized Networks
Wake up. Look around. The situation is absurd.
Almost every network that isn't decentralized has become a real threat to freedom of speech. A handful of hired bots — worthless, faceless algorithms controlled by corporations — can destroy any large account simply because:

They spoke the truth
They promoted decentralization
They fought for humanity's right to freedom

Think about where this is all heading.
The algorithm shows you:

10-100K views and reactions on OnlyFans content
Millions of impressions on gossip and celebrity nonsense
Endless streams of useless entertainment

But it HIDES:

Articles about how your credentials are stolen
Investigations into how corporations sell your data
Content about digital dictatorship

And when you try to share real information? You get blocked. Shadowbanned. Silenced.
Who benefits from this? They do. The corporations. The elites. The ones profiting from your ignorance and digital slavery.
This isn't free speech. This is surveillance and control disguised as freedom.
Every centralized platform is a vulnerability. Every "free" service comes with a price — YOUR DATA, YOUR PRIVACY, YOUR VOICE.
The solution is simple: Decentralize everything.
That's why projects like Mastodon, Yacy, F-Droid, and other open-source, decentralized alternatives matter. They're not controlled by billionaires. They can't be shut down by corporate pressure.
If you care about real freedom, you have to stop supporting systems designed to enslave you.
Stop scrolling. Start thinking. Join the decentralized web.
The choice is yours. Choose wisely.

🚀 This image highlights my love for the Mastodon network!
The moment you publish important information for humanity, you become inconvenient for corporations. I've already been blocked 2 times on Twitter, 2 times on X, twice on Facebook, once on a Mastodon server, and 3 times on Instagram.
It all starts when I, as a Ukrainian, post about things that concern me — for example, about forced mobilization of men in Ukraine — and suddenly bots hired by the authorities flood in with mass complaints against my account. Because it's an inconvenient truth that doesn't allow them to steal more money 😅
I was also blocked during COVID when I provided evidence that humanity was being deceived. Facebook and Instagram were the first to block my accounts. Why? Because Bill Gates and others wanted to make their billions, and many people like me were silenced — everyone who asked uncomfortable questions.
That's why I, as a software developer, support everything decentralized. We create our own solutions and improve existing major projects. One of our recent initiatives is to completely rewrite the Yacy search engine for our needs. This is a decentralized network that gives freedom to users. Nobody will monitor what you search for.
We also support the F-Droid team, which champions the right to free and open-source software.

"We may no longer live is a world in which one man on a throne alone has free speech, but that doesn't mean freedom of speech is equally distributed. There remains a hierachy of status and wealth, and with it, unequal access to oppourtunities to share and air one's views. If those on top use their platform to ridicule people who cannot reply with equal volume, their #FreedomOfSpeech encroaches on those other peoples freedom to defend and speak for themselves."
