An apolitically grown older millennial radical leftist from global south trying to figure his politics out.
Anarchist at heart, socialist at mind.
No war but class war…
Bertrand Russell on fascism. Sound familiar America? No secret strategy.
"The first step in a fascist movement is the combination under an energetic leader of a number of men who possess more than the average share of leisure, brutality, and stupidity. The next step is to fascinate fools and muzzle the intelligent, by emotional excitement on the one hand and terrorism on the other."
Perhaps I am some kind of dangerous computer radical these days, thinking that one should be able to buy or make a computer, install one's choice of OSs and software, create a local user account, and get on with one's affairs, privately and without interference.
Quiet enjoyment of one's computer.
* No age or ID verification
* No jumping through hoops to install software, or third parties restricting the software that one can run
* No third party accounts
If your stated goal is to make computing into a “utility” (aka subscription) you can only obtain from Big Tech and if your entire industry is comprised of rentiers, it makes perfect sense to also make actually owning a general computing device as expensive as possible.

No, there is a very clear legal term for what is Israel is doing: a crime against humanity
"deportation or forcible transfer of population is explicitly enumerated as one of the acts of crimes against humanity (article 7 (1)(d)"
They even say it themselves: "Israel says Lebanese displaced won't return until own citizens are safe"
Yet another DE backed war crime cynically laundered through their own past crimes
Some say the sitting US President is drunk on his own power.
This is not true.
That power was never his own. He is drunk on borrowed power.
That power belongs to American people.
So, my comrades in the US, please take your power back. If you don't know how - your president described how it is done to Iranians just a few months back.
Today on shameless Western media propaganda: Poor, poor Israelis must learn to live with the illegal wars they start...
Far-right prejudice now ‘normalised’ across Europe, warns EU anti-racism chief – Racism across Europe is not only about speeches by extremists or headline-grabbing scandals – but also what is repeated and normalised in political discourse and down into everyday life, warns Michaela Moua, the European Commission’s anti-racism coordinator.
Michaela Moua, the European Commission’s anti-racism coordinator, is anxious. “Independent of what's happening in the US, we’re seeing the normalisation of hatred and racism, and that is extremely worrying, as it can lead to violence and even death. We have already seen that,” she told EUobserver in an interview.
