#TheSilanceContinues

#Portland #PDX #StJohns

The silence is deafning. Always hearing about this country or that one, this group or that one but the silence continues for #homeless people.

(Amendment I) Sorry, you don't have the right to assemble in public space even in protest because your homeless.

(Amendment IV) Sorry, you don't have the right to be served a search warrant when we steal your only way to stay warm and dry.

(Amendment VIII) Sorry, your under arrest for trying to survive in public spaces in the middle of winter/heatwave after the city/state/federal has taken everything from you and there is absolutely no place to go to get out of the weather.

A short time ago, #Trump decided that 771,000 people have no US Constitution rights when he declared it #Illegal2BHomeless in #AmeriKKKa.

Not only do we now have to be on the lookout for city cops, shariffs, state cops, National Guards that also forgot the oath we say when joining the US Military, we have to be looking for every day haters who won't hesitate to kill us for simply not having paid for place to live.

But the Silence Continues.

BTW, the mayor of Portland Oregon has shown his true colors, he is a MAGA cult terrorist too.

"Border agents apprehend record number of people in Maine illegally"

I can't say how correct this is but "Portland ME", rely??

@Fragglemuppet

Yes and take it to the next level
Like putting all Disney movies on torrent servers.

Since Trump declared war on #homeless #CITIZENS, I've drawn the battle line in St John's #PDX #Portland calling all #veterans

Don't you just love the Fediverse? Build your own service and you don't have to worry.

I've gotten reported to myself (admin) multiple times 😂

@hellomiakoda
Best to use a VPN outside of US government control too. I hate that the one we use for the MPAQ network is in Chicago and they will probably sell/give the government whatever they demanded...

@impermanen_

I just keep thinking about #Portland #PDX selling out and joining Trump... Not just #immigrants on the list, all of the 6-7,000 #homeless people are too.

Just so, "Mayor Wilson" and his clowns can keep getting federal funding.

@BeAware

Haven't yet but I probably should edit out the word. It is decentralized and growing. 4 systems at the moment. Hopefully, some others will join and expand the index bots.

Besides, no one that I know of has a "copyright" for the word Federated...

> I'm sitting here thinking "WHEN was this made

I've been watching a lot of the old TV shows and it amazes me how much of that crap is STILL going on even from the 80's.

@tim

Are you saying that you got your SMTP working? I've not been able to for about 2 years 😭

We even host our own email service.

@mattly

It was, now its owned by a corporation who will sell your software back to you.

@BeAware @damon

The man has always been a joke, maybe people will see it now. Less than half hour and I'm going to need some major meditation tonight 😂

@BeAware

Actually, I'm seeing a lot of hashtags but so many different ones 😭

@BeAware

It never stopped on the corporate systems, what makes you think it would stop here?

@BeAware

I make sure my bots only post once an hour for the same reasons 😂

@BeAware

Not 💯 sure but I think it stops everything from them. 🤔

@inthehands @joshuaphilll

What county, state, City, please

@BeAware

I made a PHP/MySQL program last month that shows who is following vs who I'm following if you would like to check it out 😜 I've removed most of the accounts from my list that doesn't follow back, some of them are dead or moved accounts. Really makes it easier but not fancy. If you want, you can even install it from GitHub. I've not used it with ngnix or that other database but ...

@BeAware

How many people are on your instance? Part of why we aren't getting slammed is that we have about 20 and very few are active, no one as active as me 😂
