DocMI just wanted to recommend Mastodon to an old friend and while there is an excellent German landing page for Punx (@punxsocial) I needed something in English.
@The_Counterforce to the rescue, they have an extraordinarily well-written introduction.

Completely new to the platform. I hope to learn and grow along the way. Knowledge is POWER!
JohnnyEnzymeBecause this is a ‘Meta’ level community about the overall Fediverse, or specific FV issues. Your video appears to have nothing to do with any of that.
Better places to post it might be, I don’t know… resistance, womens’ rights, anarchist, social science, anti-capitalist, etc communities. You’d have to search around to find active ones where this has good chances of being seen, of course. Cheers.
Anarchist QuotesI am not myself free or human until or unless I recognize the freedom and humanity of all my fellowmen.
-- Mikhail Bakunin
Rights aren't rights if someone can take them away. They're privileges. That's all we've ever had in this country, is a bill of temporary privileges.
-- George Carlin
HeavenlyPossumAnytime I say #AbolishThePolice someone inevitably comes along and asks “but who will keep us safe without the cops?” and meanwhile thousands of regular people in Minneapolis have spontaneously self-organized a round-the-clock patrol of the city, replete with a city-wide intelligence network and radio dispatch system, to keep themselves safe from violent assaults by the police.

𝐿𝒶𝓃𝒶 "not yet begun to fight"If you want to play piano, you'll play piano. If you don't, then you won't. No harm done if not. The world doesn't need yet another person who "always wished" they could play piano and didn't. But the world does need more artists. Now more than ever. And the only way you become an artist is by doing art. The only thing stopping yourself from doing it is you.
hexI'm not saying there isn't any problem, but I am saying that thatcherism/reaganism is absolutely how everyone dies. How about we stop American private equity from draining the economy, ignore all US laws against reverse engineering, stop paying copy levy to the US, and legalize squatting again to make it so giant corporations can't hold all the housing stock? Maybe we can check in after that.
I’m starting this mutual aid fund because I believe in the power of humanity and community. With so much uncertainty in the country and the economy, too many people are left wondering where their next meal will come from or how they’ll pay for rent. Seeing single mothers struggle to get formula for their babies, and families facing tough times, has inspired me to take action and help my neighbors in any way I can.
In these challenging times, many in our community are struggling to meet their basic needs. I’ve witnessed firsthand the hardships faced by single mothers trying to provide formula for their babies and families unsure of how they’ll pay rent. It’s heartbreaking to see so many people left wondering where their next meal will come from.
That’s why I’m launching the Community Mutual Aid Fund. This initiative is about coming together to support one another.
