Fuck you, ocean. If you have something to say, say it to my face instead of through a shell, you piece of shit.

I was part of the folks who were on the ground back in #Ferguson in 2014. Twitter didn’t spawn that movement. It was the people on the ground that used Twitter to start that movement. We literally changed who voices that were trusted. All of a sudden news accounts became noise. It was that person who you saw live-streaming from the protest that you trusted. We literally shifted power w/ no check marks. I think that can happen anywhere. Including #Mastodon.

"The authorities are targeting thousands of minors, under the age of 18, for participating in the protests, according to interviews with two dozen people, including lawyers in Iran involved in cases and rights activists, as well as parents, relatives and teenagers living in the country. Rights groups say that at least 50 minors have been killed."

My heart breaks for the estimated 14,000 - 15,000 protestors, mainly women and youth, sentenced to death in Iran.
