Another reminder that the most militarized nation on Earth murdered over a hundred school girls barely 2 days ago and not a major western media outlet carries the story anymore.

By contrast, 5 rich people died on a vanity trip to the Titanic and we wouldn't shut up about it for over a year.

Literally Toronto's Globe and Mail carried that story 23 times that month and during the same time frame, did 2 stories on the deaths of 700 migrants in the Mediterranean that same month.

It isn't just by lying. Turning a blind eye and ignoring is enough to manipulate public opinion. We are subtly being told that those girls' deaths are not important, not newsworthy, nothing to worry about.

Please don't let their deaths go silent so easily.

Keep tooting about them. Remind people of their murders. They should be front page news, not some turd in a tie.

Sadly social media has to do what corporate media will not. Corporate media is fascist controlled now.

Being trans is freaking amazing. It's magic. It's the best part of who I am. And no closed minded bigot or spineless politician will ever, EVER, make me hate myself.

The campaign against Francesca Albanese

"This is a fight we must win. If we lose, if we let voices like Francesca’s be silenced, we will usher in an age" where those who stand up for the rule of law are relentlessly persecuted, & genocide is just another tool in the arsenal to crush the vulnerable

.

The persecution of Francesca Albanese

In order to silence Albanese and other supporters of
Palestinian rights, Trump placed Albanese on the Office of
Foreign Assets Control list, normally used to sanction money
laundering or involvement with terrorism.

Being on the list bans her from entering the US or from using
banks. Her US assets are frozen, & she can't use credit cards.
Her medical insurance has refused to reimburse her.
Previously friendly institutions, including US universities,
human-rights groups & NGOs, have cut her off for fear of US
penalties.

Trump's sanctioning occurred six days after the release of
Albanese's report that documented corporate profiting from
the Israeli occupation and genocide.

Abolishing ICE is not enough.

They must be publicly identified.
They must be prosecuted.
They must be punished.

Justice must be served.

I keep seeing people asking why the police aren't arresting ICE or protecting people from ICE and I desperately need you to understand that the police aren't protecting you from ICE because protecting YOU is not and never has been their function and that's why we need to defund them.

It can be hard to imagine how to defend oneself against an overwhelming force like ICE. But a few enterprising hackers have started projects to do counter-surveillance against ICE, and hopefully protect their communities through clever use of technology. eff.org/deeplinks/2026/01/how-

"consumers aren't buying based on AI” is demonstrably untrue, because i am a consumer, and i buy based on AI. i see a product uses AI and i choose something else

I wish Alita: Battle Angel was as violent as the comic it was based off of. The first big bad was a guy who ate people’s brains FFS!
I love the movie don’t get me wrong, but it could have been more like the source material…

With the US acting more and more like a rogue state, it's time to impose your own personal sanctions.

Bite the bullet. Stop using Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Google, Meta and ChatGPT - where you can. Hit them where it hurts and burst that AI bubble.

Most of the barriers come down to inconvenience.

@heidilifeldman Democrats aren’t the answer and have never been honestly.
We need a revolution, not a midterm.

The far right doesn't care and has never cared about:

* freedom of speech
* freedom of the press
* states rights
* government overreach
* wars of choice/international meddling
*. women's sports
* women ... generally
* real Americans

But most important of all they do not care about appearing hypocritical. They want to be seen as powerful, brave, unstoppable, etc. the dishonest rot of hypocrisy is just another tool.

Learn it now and forever. Expect much less from such people.
