myrmepropagandistWhen people say "Judeo-Christian" I often find myself getting excited and looking for the "Judeo" part ... and not finding any.
Curious.

Thomas ZimmerDonald Trump, American Dictator
Nothing is ever inevitable. But every political analysis needs to start from the recognition that there is an eminently plausible – and fairly straightforward path – from here to autocratic rule.

Brent Toderian“The unvarnished truth is that the real and greatest threat to our children on Halloween is the automobile. Kids are three times more likely to be hit by a car on #Halloween than on any other night of the year. By focusing on imagined dangers, communities are failing to take action that could actually protect children.”

Low Quality FactsFor the sake of empathy, I ask you all to take a second to consider things from the perspective of Conservatives:
Inflation is out of control. Housing is unaffordable. The healthcare system is broken. Everyone is drowning in student debt. Ecosystems are collapsing. We're constantly on the brink of war.
So naturally, one would ask, how can we even hope to solve these daunting and complex issues if we do not have detailed information on the genitals of every American citizen?

Daniël Franke 🏳️🌈I'm of the opinion that #threads should not be engaged with in any way.
Not because I think it's a threat to the #fediverse, although it could potentially be.
Not because I think it will bring a huge amount of bad actors that will harass users on other instances, although that is definitely a risk.
My reason is simpler; #Facebook has done so much evil, society eroding shit, that I don't work with them on principle.
And Facebook knows that as well, which is why threads is instagram branded.

Then TikTok catalogued you!
Not only is this incredibly creepy, it's incredibly outrageous -- and could be used for harm.
People need to stop going to bat for this dumpster fire of an app. Just because Republicans don't like TikTok doesn't mean it's good. In this case, the enemy of your enemy is not your friend.
It also goes without saying that surveillance capitalism needs to stop. It's not good when TikTok does it, and it's also not good when Google, Meta, and Twitter do it.
