@mastodonmigration @dansup this is also likely a surge of people migrating from TikToks imminent ban. If you aren't following in TikTok, there is some sentiment of never Meta, bluesky not being quite the right fit, Neptune as an interesting future (creator payment friendly afaic), and Red Note as a protest move

@jwildeboer I may be an atypical reader of this kind of info, but high level facts of what is is in the process, then the data and/or diagrams, then an example walkthrough is the most interesting to me

@AnarchoNinaWrites maybe it was a bad idea sending the police to harass and beat the most active young political activists in colleges who dared speak up against genocide - you know the ones that also volunteer to work for the grinding ground get out the vote efforts during presidential campaigns. That's not just killing the turnout on a direct 1:1 basis, that's leveraging the disaffection by at least an order of magnitude

@davidho maybe they can sentence the flood to four or five years in prison

Article on criminalization of Pipeline Protests. Lever News is an independent news org that I think is one of the few doing decent journalism.
They haven't gone to Mastodon yet though.

@thejapantimes says the US while funding and arming a genocide…

Personally I think we should bring all ICC designated war criminals to justice..

@alanpringle So many boomers intentionally take on avoidable risks it’s feels like a generational characteristic. I suspect a lot in the generation have a childhood association breaking out of social repression with taking on risk. Sneaking out of the house to go on a date, moving in with their unmarried significant other, etc. I think responsibly taking a covid booster gets misassociated with a generation of ad memes for rebellion and independence from repressive social norms of their time.
