"Don't Stream Fascism."
This is a regime of the bullies, for the billionaires blasting propagnda at us through all possible means. We must withhold our views & our coins from corporations that aid, abet & spread their hate:

Spotify is running ads recruiting agents for ICE, the federal agency charged with mass deportation and surveillance of immigrant communities. These ads target vulnerable populations, promise signing bonuses, and normalize fear and intimidation in our neighborhoods.
We refuse to fund it. We refuse to ignore it.
A co-worker just had a child a couple of days ago.
I just observed my passing thoughts, and realised that I was imagining celebrating the child’s 18th birthday in my mind, because I felt they might not get to, in 2043.
Watching my own thoughts shook me.

No wonder I feel stressed to all hell.
“MasterCard and Visa have increasingly used their financial control to pressure platforms into censoring legal fictional content. Entire genres of books, games, films, and artwork are being demonetized or deplatformed — not because they're illegal, but because they offend the personal values of executives or activist groups.”
Why are payment processors guardians of morality? Fight censorship by an effective duopoly on all non-crypto transactions
Hello did you happen to enjoy the video games "YOU ARE JEFF BEZOS", "YOU ARE GENERATIVE AI", or "DISPLACER BEAST" ["There's something wrong with your new cat"]. Did you happen to enjoy them for free because they are free Itch browser games. Was there an amount of money you *would* have played for them? Well maybe it would make sense to put that $ into the creator's Gofundme as they try to last long enough to find a new job—

@MikeFromLFE @ChrisMayLA6 "just plan ahead" is a tax on spontaneity. Your gran is taken ill and you need to get to the hospital quickly on the other side of the country so you can spend the last few hours with her? Hope you can afford it.
The purpose of public transport is to transport the public. Imagine if we had road pricing that required you to buy a discount card, and book slots on the motorway weeks in advance. They'd be riots. The same should be true for trains.
