Democrats, who were bragging about their draconian anti-immigration bullshit just a few months ago trying to win over racist white voters, are now suspiciously quiet that Trump is operating on those same principles to round people up, invade schools, break up families, and deport and send people to camps in chains. The White House literally put out an "ASMR" video of shackled immigrants being deported by plane. This is where that rhetoric leads.

I need non US Americans to understand that it takes days, almost a whole week to travel across the United States without using a plane.

Using a plane requires you to be and remain unthreatening to the State. To say nothing of the inherent risk of flying with the issues going on regarding Air Traffic Control.

It takes most US Americans hours to get to their state capital.

We are not a European sized country. Descending upon Washington DC en masse is not possible for the average person.

Resisting this dictatorial federal government will need to include ignoring it. Not ignoring the damage it's doing, but operating independently from it. Empires crumble when they get to a size where they cannot exercise local control over their whole land area. Focusing on building dual power and mutual aid is materially beneficial.

the capitalist landlord class is composed of parasites and nothing more. they are not worthy of your respect, and they are not worthy of your fear. someday they will not exist. but we, the poor, long their victims, will fluorish in uncountably many variations of love and expression and culture while dancing on their graves

everyone is like "capitalism is an efficient system. we just need to modify it" and capitalism is frantically installing something called "copilot" on your computer to make it worse for no reason

You know why we Germans are so pedantic about data protection? Someone around 90 years ago went through all records available, selected people with certain criteria, with the help of IBM, and then killed them all.

We don't want to be on any list.

And now the US Gov and Musk is trying to get access to all data they have about every person and put them into a big fat DB and run AI over it.

I am afraid what they will do with that.

Why are we seeing fewer numbers at mass protests after Trump 2.0? Poverty and disenfranchisement. Most people in dire situations see the path behind them and the mountain of crap to deal with today. They do not have the time nor do they see the effectiveness of such protests where nothing is taken away from the people in power. We need general strikes, but that takes organization and caring for the people at the bottom. We need to work together to topple the power structure.

This morning, Leonard Peltier was released from over 49 years of wrongful incarceration.

“Today I am finally free! They may have imprisoned me but they never took my spirit!” said Leonard Peltier. “Thank you to all my supporters throughout the world who fought for my freedom. I am finally going home. I look forward to seeing my friends, my family, and my community. It’s a good day today.”

fun fact: if you have a laptop or desktop that has an intel cpu with "vPro" on the sticker there's a chance the management engine in your CPU is just hosting a web server at all times.

It's at port 16992
