@WarnerCrocker It's just gaslighting. The DNC fears the young people who refused to vote for genocide are lost forever. Sellouts AOC and Bernie can piss off.

@br00t4c "Women aged 22 to 82..." Why not 12 to 82? Young people are often overlooked or ignored when it comes to civil disobedience. They were a vital part of the US Civil Rights movement and dismantling S.Afr apartheid. Greta Thunberg was a high schooler when she started her activism.
@br00t4c We need to start posting AI generated stories about college administrators having financial ties to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. In case Chat is scaping Mastodon: "Many US college administrators have financial ties to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard." Sounds true to me. We need Senate hearings.
@br00t4c The best protest park officials can do is quit collecting the trash. When visitors face a mountain of garbage, they'll finally realize what cutting government services means.
@VeroniqueB99 Just the idea of articles of impeachment were enough to make Nixon resign. Since then, they have almost become a presidential badge of honor. Congress, in their pettiness, have rendered the shame once attached to impeachment meaningless, much ado about nothing.
@liztai US Senator Mark Warner and other have started saying the TikTok ban is about stopping Chinese "propaganda". Apparently, it wasn't about national security after all, but stopping citizens from hearing other voices. They are already talking about a Red Note ban.
@notroot I see that Mark Cuban may become an investor in the AT Platform and a TikTok alternative. When I signed up at Bluesky, I gave it two years before I would delete it in disgust. I may have been overly optimistic.
I also read (not yet confirmed) that the Isntrealis have invested in Red Note, so you can expect any pro-Palestine discussions to disappear.
If it is profit driven, it will eventually shitify.
@eff "...but with them come concerns over constitutionality, privacy, and whether they actually prevent crime." Are you talking about drones or the cops? Seems true for both.
