There is a global turn away from democracy. The USA has trashed in one year the democratic institutions autocrats in other countries took 7-10 years to demolish. The process is well underway in Australia.

Whose interests are served as democracy withers? Those of fossil fuel companies, weapons manufacturers & others for whom a responsible transition to renewable energy & action to reduce inequality is a threat to their profits. Their strategy is to turn us against each other.

Meanwhile workers are exploited, communities polarised, populations displaced, genocides perpetrated & the planet burns.

People are not our enemy. Ignorance is.

Thank you so so much  

Did you know theres likely a cryptographic lock on your computer that can prevent you installing whatever OS you choose (likely if it was made in the last 2 decades)

For intel its called Intel Management Engine for AMD its called AMD Platform Security Processor

These are closed environments isolated from the rest of the machine that perform security checks on the OS as it is booting

State and capital know personal computing is a double edged sword and can give proles too much power: so they've been quietly building locks at the core of your computer so you don't understand the freedom that is being taken from you.

When activated it would be trivial to outlaw any OS that isnt government approved like already happens in North Korea.

The only way I can think of to get around this is to support Open Source Hardware projects especially those building open source CPUs and full motherboards there are very few of them but most seem to be building on the RISC-V standard instruction set.

"Love is abundant, and every relationship is unique.

Relationship anarchy questions the idea that love is a limited resource that can only be real if restricted to a couple. You have capacity to love more than one person, and one relationship and the love felt for that person does not diminish love felt for another. Don’t rank and compare people and relationships — cherish the individual and your connection to them. One person in your life does not need to be named primary for the relationship to be real. Each relationship is independent, and a relationship between autonomous individuals."

- Andie Nordgren, originally in Swedish
