Next up: we take down (f)elon musk! The elongated muskrat himself!

Trump's surely finished now!

OK google; How to Downvote Twice on Just Post dot Net?

(You probably already know this, but I'm referencing Zuckerberg saying "They 'trust me'. Dumb fucks" regarding Facebook's users.)

I’m not trivially easy to track back to real world identity from any of my socials

I'm concerned about the data that Facebook holds, but otherwise did not regularly give away without a warrant. I'm worried about the Trump admin newly being able to ask, e.g. "Give us the user ID, profile name, and bio history of every single IG user, so we can filter(bio.contains('🏳️‍⚧️'), insta_bios) on it. Capiche?"

And from there, take the email, IP, etc of that. I imagine, even with great opsec, there's nothing that trumps the richness of data Meta has on people.

Maybe Facebook already had regular data dumps for the FBI, or maybe warrants actually mattered. I really don't know.

That said, I also totally feel you there. I wish I started with DIY HRT both to stay off lists, but also because I'd have been on it a decade earlier. At least, Planned Parenthood won't be cozying up to Trump.

It turns out you can just get rid of all the trans people, they put themselves on lists. They trusted Facebook, the dumb fucks.

I never trusted Facebook, and I’m not trivially easy to track back to real world identity from any of my socials. That said, I find myself wishing I had just started with DIY hrt. It would be trivial for anyone with access to prescription records to determine I was trans and toss me on a list.

Or they could just ask the public to report trans people in their community. I’m well enough known that someone would turn me in. So maybe it doesn’t matter in the end; we can’t hide, so it’s time to get ready to fight.

Maybe past time.

What the fuck

I'm not a fan of cryptocurrencies or Coinbase but the email text Erik claims to have received doesn't really back what they're saying about that platform lol

that's not very coin-based

The only reason I’m inclined to believe the number is the specificity of it. Despite it being “worse” if he had said a million, or one and a half million, I’d believe a round number was made up. 1.8m is a little to specific. I think he heard that number from someone in a briefing and liked it so it stuck.

this assumes that 1. accurate and timely population numbers stick in donald trump's head and 2. he is able to reliably retrieve those population numbers and deliver them aloud. i don't find it unrealistic that israel has murdered 300 thousand in gaza since oct 7 but using donald trump as a source for anything seems extremely dubious to me

No American has thought before they spoke in basically a century but maybe under pressure we'll actually learn, Lol

Anything good you're doing is probably illegal, so only talk about it if you have to.

Even if it’s not illegal loose operational security can compromise the whole point of your action. Some things need saying out loud, somethings need to be kept quiet. Think before you speak, and if in doubt, shut the fuck up.

Public sites like this one are archived by the feds - and everyone else. Discord works with cops. A dozen or more companies know every place your phone has physically been used since you got it, and will sell this information for virtual peanuts to anyone who asks for it. VPNs have been caught logging ips. Your data is not safe, and in a time of fascism, that means you are not safe.

Communication may be critical to our success in the upcoming years, but it can just easily be our undoing. Learn to secure your phone, disable biometrics and use end to end encrypted messaging. Don’t take your daily phone to sensitive locations, and be prepared to wipe and abandon any device you do carry with you.

And seriously, like OP says, practice just not talking about some things.

If only we had president Violent J instead

i wanna clarify by "favorite" i mean "funnest to indulge in"

Sad that some of my friends are going to have to live through the American Warlord Era but in the long run it'll probably be good for the world's oppressed majority.

Not yet, but its hegemony is definitely weakening. No one else is there to step up either. Russia has had its set backs in Ukraine and Syria. China is suffering from an economic bubble of its own and soon will have a declining population. India will be fucked by climate change sooner rather than later. Europe is mostly a threat to itself and migrants.

Anyways rightoids today are much too clownish to run a hegemony properly. Like Elon thinks developmental aid to neighbors of China from the US is DEI and not hegemonic bribes.

I apologise for this comment, in retrospect it was really callous and stupid

This isn't just for X markers; it's also people who are changing the marker between M and F, or have ever done so.

I can say this bc I'm also nonbinary

I don't mean to sound unkind but I've always thought applying for documents with an X marker was a huge rube move

For example, no matter what else they do, Food Not Bombs feeds hungry people, and that is worth doing.

The point the video made was that while it is a good thing to do, it isn't toppling the conditions that give rise to starvation or homelessness in the first place, so it's not the most effective thing to do. Our org tried to do red charity and organizing work for a while, but we eventually had to face the fact that the charity work was eating up too much of our limited time, energy, and funding. Since we were such a small group of people, it was sapping most of the energy we could've been putting towards organizing, so we eventually had to make the difficult decision to suspend the program. The decision was delayed for quite a while because some people thought it was too heartless to stop doing grocery handouts.

At the same time they offer a chance for meeting people with similar values and philosophies.

They touched on that, too, and came to the conclusion that a limited grocery distribution could be useful as a stepping stone to connect with the advanced masses. If it's done with that in mind, with the intention of moving on to bigger and better things once you get more people on board, then it can be a good starting tactic.

That’s where having pre-established networks of people willing to help each other may be life saving - both for you and others.

Sure, I agree with this. I have a side project that I run that would fall under your definition of mutual aid (I can't say what it is, due to OpSec). But it's not a massive drain on my time or resources, so it's feasible for me to do. I think mutual aid should be something that the masses do themselves to support each other. The issue I'm talking about is when a self-proclaimed revolutionary org is spending all of its time and energy doing one-sided "mutual" aid work that doesn't get them any closer to revolution.

one of the best things to come out of vice going bankrupt tbh
