- Operation Orange Chicken

coward trumporrhea "the orange Chicken"

That obsessive mania they have with their military salutes, formations, uniforms (and even tall, athletic and white bodies) was invented by a Nazi making movies back in 1935 to generate adoration for Hitler's policies.

I was hungry.
-You cut funding for SNAP and food
banks

I was thirsty
-You outted the EPA and polluted
the water

I was a stranger
-You locked me in a concentration
camp

I needed clothes
-You cut federal grants for clothing
banks

I was sick
-You slashed Medicare & Medicaid

I was in prison
And you ...

Whatever you did to the least of
these, you also did to me.
-Jesus

#AureFreePress AG nominee Todd Blanche's confirmation remains stalled as Republican Sens. Cornyn and Tillis withhold support over the $1.8B "anti-weaponization" fund tied to Trump's IRS lawsuit settlement.

Trump is now threatening to push the fund through Congress anyway if Blanche can't get confirmed, vowing to keep him as acting AG in the meantime. #Politics #USPolitics #Democracy #IndependentMedia

Shopify CEO says that if you donโ€™t make at least six figures, you shouldnโ€™t be allowed to vote!! Also, if you happen to receive SNAP or Medicaid, you should also have your Constitutional voting rights stripped!

He tweeted about it on Twitter (I will forever deadname X) and here is another source from Fortune.

F- these tech bros!

Society is starting to look exactly like what happens when we spend decades treating STEM as the only path worth investing in, while sidelining the humanities.

This isn't a criticism of science, technology, engineering, or mathematics. We need them. Desperately. They should be well supported.

But we also need philosophy, history, literature, languages, ethics, the arts, and every discipline that wrestles with what it means to be human. We need people who can understand the human condition, recognise propaganda, interpret context, think critically about power, engage with complexity, and ask not only how the world works, but what kind of world we ought to build.

A society built only to solve technical problems eventually forgets how to solve human ones.

Just when paper banknotes will be slowly ditched for digital money. This is brilliant EU-style democracy in action. This reminds of the 2 last times my country offered a real democratic vote (i.e. referendum): one was about shortening the time for our elected king from 7 to 5 years (in 2000) and the other one was about the EU Constitution (in 2005), to which most of my fellow citizens voted โ€˜noโ€™ but their choice has never been acknowledged.

It's great to be able to give our opinion

Now that you have shown that you can ask citizens, can you do it for things that really matter ?

"The Cockroaches marched.
And as they marched, they stripped away any remnants of the velvet glove that masks the governmentโ€™s iron fist and exposed the current regime for what it is and always has been. A fascist iron fist. A confederacy of brutes with no capacity to understand the history and the diversity of the country which it governs. People who only know how to hate, but have no idea how to love. Or think."

"Sleek godmen and corrupt politicians building hotels, accumulating real-estate, driving around in SUVs, fattened on the faith of the poor and unsuspecting. The tentacles of corruption and daylight robbery snaking all the way up to the top."

Its hard to claim the UK's anti-terrorism policies are working when the vast majority of those arrested for terrorism-related offences are peaceful protestors protesting on behalf of Palestine Action.

Whatever one might think about the police's anti-terrorism work, its hard to argue this is a good use of time & effort if the aim is to reduce the risk of violent terror attacks in the UK.

Its a waste of money & police time, before we even start on its threat to democracy!

The Nazis did not seize power on their own. They were helped by conservative politicians who believed they could use Hitler for their own goals and keep him under control. That was a fatal mistake. Without that support, the Nazis would have had a much harder time taking power. History teaches us a clear lesson: anyone who empowers fascists strengthens them and puts democracy at risk.

Sie dรผrfen selbstverstรคndlich andere politische Prioritรคten setzen und dazu aufrufen, sich stรคrker mit konstruktiven und progressiven Themen zu beschรคftigen.

Aber anderen zu erklรคren, ihre Auseinandersetzung mit diesem politischen Widerspruch sei lediglich VerschleiรŸ, Manipulation oder falscher Medienkonsum, ist keine politische Analyse mehr. Es ist Bevormundung โ€“ und wird einer offenen demokratischen Debatte nicht gerecht. #spahn #politics #democracy


John Lithgow --> 20 Lessons on Tyranny

Now, more than ever, we need the wisdom of our intellects, the patriotism of our citizens, and the passion and talents of those who still believe in the American experiment. I am deeply grateful to Timothy Snyder for his 20 Lessons On Tyranny and for talents of the brilliant John Lithgow for bringing them to life.

This is very true, but the fascist voters of AfD aren't sleeping. They are participating enthusiastically in a parliamentary #democracy that they want to get rid of.

#fascism



In a geopolitical time and new world order where the #EU has great opportunity for positive change, the #EUParliament and @EUCommission pulled a great marketing ploy on #ChatControl ..

The top upvoted comment on the very popular discussion thread on HN relating to @echo_pbreyer article says it all:

> The EU is a farce, an undemocratic virtue signaling organization.

Then sums up the farcical sad state of affairs, and ending with:

> In PRACTICALITY, the Commission can pursue any agenda whenever and however they want, and throw the votes down the drain. EU's #democracy is lipstick on a pig.

The repeated, continuous attempts at implementing chat control against the will of the overwhelming majority of voters, is the most undemocratic initiative ever attempted to be pushed through European Parliament.

Audrey Tang (@au / @audreyt.org ) will be giving a talk on Friday 22 May organised with our local #FOSS / #FLOSS group, from 15:30 to 16:30 UK time, in #Oxford and online. You're welcome to join (should also be recorded)!

ox.ogeer.org/event/good-enoughโ€ฆ

The topic is "Good Enough Ancestor: Software Freedom as Civic Care across Generations". It will connect the software freedom movement to Audrey's and Caroline Green's framework for local, community-governed, more caring AI systems rather than reliance on centralised systems. Tang and Green work in the local University of Oxford Institute for AI Ethics. Tang is also first Digital Minister of Taiwan, and 2025 Right Livelihood laureate. Before ministership and research, Tang was a prolific FLOSS programmer, and since has for example helped persuade Pol.is to adopt the AGPL license.

Warum soll ich Politiker respektieren wenn diese das Recht beugen oder brechen?
Demokratie ist die รœbereinkunft einer Gesellschaft sich im Rahmen ihrer selbstauferlegten Grenzen zu bewegen. Eine Demokratie ohne Referenz ist Beliebig. #democracy #politik #csu

We are also no longer posting on Meta platforms; we do have a @bikemonterey Instagram account, but it refers people to this Mastodon account.

@nicoj

well I can at least understand that when someone comes from a tradition of free speech & free political assembly, banning a certain party feels .. strange.

then again, #democracy isn't just free assembly and political organisation, it's also integrating into a set of rules (like general human rights) and if you're unable or unwilling to do that - you just get banned. Always.

Problem is: there's a lot of "democratic" parties here who don't do real democracy any more.

Everything sucks.
