Then who is supporting Nancy Pelosi?

Quip aside, let’s bring on the sunlight.

Oracle or someone worse would buy them. That’s how capitalism works.

GitHub definitely would and has in the past. YouTube-dl is on GitHub and gets a pass because it is used by researchers and archivists, both are fair use. forgejo.org would let you be your own fedi-github and might be worth checking out (could be easier than designing a plugin system and additional repos).

Seriously good read on what to do next: https://wagingnonviolence.org/2024/11/10-things-to-do-if-trump-wins/

The fascist power structure is unjust and so it is like an upsidedown pyramid being propped up by pillars: people who do the actual work are the pillars. This pyramid topples when those pillars are removed. This can be a workers’ strike in a certain sector (example given was the eastern shoremen refusing to load weapons for a war).

I’m also struck by how the article says to handle fear. We need to act as community and flip the script on their fear tactics.

The author of the article also has an interesting interview with Sam Seder where they talk about more historical examples: https://youtu.be/YLBM2SEL6Rc

Don’t blame me, I voted for Dr Eggman.

Musk just had a judge in Texas say they’re going to review the bid. I guess we know who the other bidder was now.

Underated article. Do not surrender political space, find community, trust yourself, make strange alliances.

Oh, I think the people getting rid of Lisa Kahn have other ideas about competition.

The call is coming from inside. Google CEO claims it will be like alien intelligence so we should just trust it to make political decisions for us bro: https://www.computing.co.uk/news/2024/ai/former-google-ceo-eric-schmidt-urges-ai-acceleration-dismisses-climate

History starts when I say it does

Political parties don’t learn, they respond to power.

That or the many other demoralizing speeches. We did not need to hear Clinton talk about human shields.

But then how will billionaires get to say they’re literally thinking of the big picture because they got to go on a brief space joy ride?

I hate to say this: the Hummer is actually more practical.

When the situation changes would you prefer they are part of a union or solidarity group or that they know to vote 3rd party in a past election?

Lots of people foolishly think political parties can learn lessons.

You think the political system is going to someday learn it’s lesson and work for you?

Whoever is elected is our opponent, the sooner you all accept that fact the better. Doesn’t mean you should pick a tougher boss level.

They still have elections in Russia /s

Political parties don’t learn, they respond to power.

I wanna punch the voice that says “but won’t the homeless sleep in the bushes?”
