I guess you're not allowed to have an OPINION now if you aren't a US citizen.

I am sure #trump would also get rid of US citizens and lock them up for opinions too if he could, and wouldn't cause a gigantic amount of civil unrest if he started trying that with the current climate.

Speak now, as much as you can, while you still can.

If you don't, it may be too late when you really need to.

“The Trump administration is threatening to all but shut down the Social Security Administration in response to a judge’s ruling blocking activities by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency — an action that could delay payments to millions"

🎺 FOR SHAME.

Arlington National Cemetery has scrubbed information about prominent Black, Hispanic and female service members and topics such as the Civil War from its website, part of a broader effort across the Defense Department to remove all references to diversity, equity and inclusion from its online presence.

The Washington Post · Arlington Cemetery website scrubs links about Black and female veteransBy Tobi Raji

Even if you accept the death penaly as 'just and right' (which I do not), the evidence of prosecution fraud and a refusal to reconsider evidence in the light of modern forensics (basic DNA analysis for crying out loud) - this is a stain on America. I won't say humanity just yet, there are a lot of unplesent people out there - they just seem to have a lot more power to abuse and lie in a country that considers itself modern.

"White Collar Crime" is encouraged, Trump demotes or fires the prosecutors who've convicted white collar criminals, esp. those that benefit Trump, settle his vendettas, or for his oligarchs. DOJ has put 3 fed prosecutors in Manhattan on leave.

"2 of the prosecutors -Andrew Rohrbach & Celia Cohen -worked on the prosecution of NY Mayor Eric Adams. Rohrbach worked on the successful prosecutions of Ghislaine Maxwell, SBF & Michael Avenatti."

Just saw this cartoon posted on the enshittified, dying legacy blogging platform a few worthwhile writers still use. The article says the cartoon is banned on the enshittified, dying legacy social media platform still used by a few worthwhile people - and a lot more worthless ones. (Hint: it's now owned by the cartoon's subject, Cylon Musk.)

Good cartoon, imo.

[en] #Luddite: anti-progress fanatics, a popular misconception

"... original ... Luddites weren’t against #technology. "

"... wrest back control of technology for #democratic ends ... kind of "#digital #Luddism" which echoes past struggles against high-tech #injustice."

"... systemic change towards #sustainable, #transparent and #usercontrolled infrastructure."

Why is #democracy failing? Lies & disinfo. from the right that led to Trump's 2nd term, & the disproportionate number of wealthy Americans who sustain the economy. The rich are getting richer, & the poor, poorer.

"This is not a healthy economy for all.

The top 10% of American earners — HHs making ~$250,000 a year or more🚨-account for 49.7% of all spending.

3 decades ago, the top 10% accounted for about 36% of spending."
