"We need all hands on deck in #Pennsylvania.

Last week, MAGA Republicans unveiled their latest plan for taking over #PA’s Supreme Court:
“𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗗𝗼𝗼𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗸𝗲”

They are preparing to flood the state with canvassers,
set up GOP voter registration drives in every county...

If we lose here, Demis may never have a chance of winning PA’s critical 19 electoral college points ever again.

'"👉Ukraine will only pay back the loan once #Russia pays for the reparations👈. The money will help Ukraine already today,"... von der Leyen told the #EuropeanParliament during her annual State of the Union address on Sept 9...helping #Ukraine plug an expected 8 billion euro ($8.5 billion) budget shortfall next year, especially as donor fatigue grows and national budgets across the #EU come under pressure."

OFC!

@mmiasma

I'm facing a similiar situation. After my mother died, around 62 years old, my dad remarried. He has since passed away, but my step-mom and her family invite me, my brother and sister to their family gatherings, people I don't know. I went to a few, but I don't know these people and I feel uncomfortable around them because they hang together and I ususally hang out with my brother. I guess they feel like they should invite us. One of these events is coming up and I really don't want to go. I won't have a valid excuse either, just that I really don't want to go.

Exactly!

Rotten to the core.
Inedible and indigestible, even for worms!

Beschädigtes Kabel könnte Ursache für Unglück sein"

Why?

⚠️ 📢 Israeli army once again ordered all Palestinians in #GazaCity on Saturday morning to evacuate and head south, as the intensity of the violent shelling continues to escalate, primarily targeting dilapidated residential towers

🔹 In a post on social media, ISR called on all residents of Gaza City to evacuate south toward the #KhanYounis neighborhood, which it claims is a "humanitarian zone"

And then there are some EU citizens who applaud and cheer about this great punishment and the message the EU has sent...
They are downright happy about it.
Honestly?

No, no.
Don't cheer.
Don't be happy.
Don't applaud.
We have to act.

Another is the demand that EU policy makers provide financial support to promote European tech companies.

There must be tech counterweights with European values that adhere to EU rights and human rights.

But there is one thing that everyone can do.
Boycott these giants.
Even if they don't care about a few million customers leaving.

It will matter when there are more and more.

10/11

We are the majority and therefore also have the power.

Such giants want us to feel helpless, small, and insignificant.
They want us to think that we can't do anything.
But we can.
We can do a hell of a lot.

The EU is also politics.
I understand the political dilemma and therefore also the attempt to always act diplomatically.

8/11

But we are not politicians,
we are consumers,
who hold the power to raise or bring down giants.

Here at Fedi, we prove every day that there are alternatives, and damn good ones at that.

One of our tools is boycotts.
Another is promoting European companies.

Yes, for some things there are hardly any alternatives...
Just think of Android.

Deux tiers d’entre eux furent gazés dès leur arrivée, sans même qu’ils ne mettent les pieds dans les camps de concentration disséminés autour d’Auschwitz. Décider d’exterminer un groupe de population entre 39 jours à 93 ans, sur une base ethnique ou religieuse, c’est cela, un projet génocidaire.

@si_irini
Stimmt!

@Doga @mina

urface de la terre des êtres humains de 39 jours à 93 ans.
Nous portons en nous la mémoire d’Auschwitz. Elle nous a servis à construire une Europe pacifiée, à immuniser une partie de notre corps social contre l’intolérance et, bien plus lentement, à comprendre qu’il fallait aussi écouter les victimes. Mais elle ne nous a rien appris.

@nicolas_fournier

Wow, - 7 bn people is a lot of decrease. I have seen numbers of 300 m to 2 bn #ClimateRefugees and share the #Overshoot hypothesis to a large degree, but had not come across that number.

Do your models include the (likely) hypothesis that #GlobalWarming is still accelerating?
