Ika Makimaki@jeremy_pm - (posted by theconcealedweapon) If you really care about preventing government tyranny, your #1 priority must be making sure criminals have rights.
And that's not a joke or an exaggeration.
If criminals don't have rights, then all the government has to do is find some excuse to label people as criminals, and those people will no longer have rights. It's what literally every tyrannical government in all of history has done.

'It is impossible to claim that Rees-Mogg and other devotees of the neoliberal cult are concerned with enhancing democracy and freedom when any increase in liberty is given to a small number of already powerful people. And the ability to get by, let alone thrive, is taken from the poorest.'

BrisVegas‘Freedom of religion’ has become ‘freedom to violently suppress minorities I don’t like’ - and it needs to be got rid of.

Still amazes me how Reagan and his ilk just loved Solidarity (the Polish union), while denying unions to their own fellow citizens.

PwC’s ‘phoenix operation’ draws criticism
This week, the Big Four consultancy PwC “exited” another eight senior partners from the firm, as a result of the ongoing tax leaks scandal. Was that enough to satisfy Senator Deborah O’Neill? Even before I had finished asking the question, she shot back: “No.”
LCWebsXOXO [mod]Oh my God. PLEASE do not get on Meta's new competitor for Twitter.
It harvests mucho data including our health data.
You cannot opt out.
#Meta has already taken info from a Facebook Messenger chat about seeking #abortion in a hostile state, and turned it over for prosecution.
If you're #trans or might ever need to end a pregnancy PLEASE do not use #Threads.
Boost this. Protect your damn friends.

Facebook turns over mother and daughter’s chat history to police resulting in abortion charges
Police in Nebraska have charged a teenager and her mother with a series of felonies and misdemeanors after Facebook gave up the pair’s private chat history in response to a search warrant. The case is a reminder of how users’ digital data can and will be used to prosecute illegal abortions in a post-Roe America.
