   still haven't found a dictionary for DGS signs for stuff like "anarchism", "Marxist backstabber", "democratic confederalist" etc. even ASL with its overwhelming presence it's hard to find political terms. but I now know a LSM word for zapatismo:

     it's ridiculous how it's now normal that computers are adversarial to their owners and using a computer now means to be working around constantly hostility of software designed specifically to not help you, and this is accepted enough that for young people that's their whole idea of what a computer is, a sort of scammy robot always trying to pull one over you

     Haelwenn /элвэн/ :triskell: and clacke@libranet.de is my main like this.

     do you remember when it was possible to search things with computers? those were the days

     GreenSkyOverMe (Monika), Luke T. Shumaker and Mr. Bill repeated this.

     at 1:40-, it's easy to see when the interpreter fingerspells sub. Marcos but I'm not able to parse which sign she's using for "zapatismo" immediately after. it doesn't help that the dang video keeps cutting away the interpreter lol

     @elilla
     You're so right. And what a shame.

     @TheDailyBurble @elilla I also do research in libraries, and have a personal library of 3000+ or - books. I still have three typewriters in working order, one of which is over a hundred years old. The 'puters and net are all fine and jolly, or used to be, but I will have the typewriters and the books when the res technica collapses. I also have friends with hand operated printing presses. #neoluddite
