@tek - well, obviously you know your kids better than I do, so do what you think is best. I just wanted to note that the advice in your original post might not be best for other parents to heed though.
@tek - that is an excellent attitude and more power to you. What I am trying to say is that we can make the decisions to oppose evils ourselves, and as adults more likely have a better level of experience to judge how best to effect that in a particular situation - but we still shouldn't encourage our kiddos to endanger themselves, given they might not be able to reliably navigate the situation in a safe way.
@tek - given the record of people arrested sometimes getting delayed in release or even "lost" for months in the system, as well as noting the abuses done by CPS in some places, while I sympathize with the spirit of this post, I don't really think it is necessarily good advice for parents to impart to their kids. Better to tell them to observe and report immediately what they saw, rather than endanger themselves - adults are the ones that can better choose whether to place themselves in between.
@dansup - yes please! Friendica is great, but the gui is too cluttered and confusing for most people. Diaspora is great but it lacks features (e.g. editing after posting) and needs to use ActivityPub.
@dansup - also Diaspora is still a good option for this too, with a simpler to navigate ui and a smoother sign up process than Friendica, in my experience - https://diasporafoundation.org/
@QasimRashid I am a Jewish-American, so I do not say this lightly - but the ADL have been absolute piece of shits for a while now, working to conflate criticism of IDF atrocities with anti-semitism, while ignoring real neo-nazism creeping in from the MAGA-right. I regret ever sending the ADL donations in the distant past.
