Thank you so much for your perspective on this.

Zelensky, the adult.

Yes the sky is falling. What we can do is local. Please be safe and I wish you all success in your endeavors.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. I was under the impression it didn’t call out to mozilla servers if you didn’t enable sync.

I guess Mullvad would be the next popular browser yeah?

Gloating that you were right at the end of the world. What a strange flex.

I’m going to assume you don’t have a strong grasp of just how fucked the electoral college and voter rights are in the US.

I don’t expect you to read those. Because you’re lobbing easy potshots and offering no constructive criticism in response to my admittedly frustrated sarcastic comment.

These are for people that are interested in understanding the problem and would like to organize grass roots efforts to combat it.

I’ll post organizational resources when I get to my desk.

Can someone tell me if this is a known good resource to share?

Oh look there’s an adult in the room. Can we keep him?

Well, not necessarily encrypted messaging security, https://www.intelligenceonline.com/government-intelligence/2025/01/30/france-makes-new-push-for-backdoors-into-encrypted-messaging-apps,110369896-art

That being said, yes, a stronger EU is better for the whole world. I hate that Trump is becoming the impetus for that.

Is it an alternative account you use for differing purposes than other accounts?

Mutual Aid is not charity. Mutual aid is beneficial for both parties.

Mutual aid for rent would be to join a tenants union so that people can get organized and perform a rent strike.

Mutual Aid for food would be something like Food Not Bombs. (It’s an http site so only sign up if you’re comfortable with that.)

Charity is not mutual aid.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

I’d love for you to post some non lazy sources.

To be honest and a bit pedantic, it’s a continuation of the cold war. There has been no 3rd world war and likely as not due to; Russia’s complete mishandling of their nuclear arsenal and China’s economic interests, there is little threat of one. The US intelligence departments know this. And with Gabbard as the DNI Chief I’m pretty sure Russia has a finger on the pulse of what we will know. There are rumblings of compartmentalization efforts in the Intelligence communities and there are rumors of rogue efforts to keep sensitive intel within the DOD and subsequent cells and away from the DNI and the Executive branch. We’re living in absolutely insane times and the US Hegemony is at it’s most vulnerable now. I am not for US Hegemony in the general sense and I do not think that it is the only stabilizing force in world politics. But when a power vacuum forms, it’s rare that stability follows in the short term.

If there were ever a time for a general strike to depose and defang the executive branch it is now. However, I don’t see the general US populace doing anything on behalf of Ukraine or to further the Hegemony.

With what Musk is allowing DOGE to do we’re headed for another great recession. Maybe that will be the inciting event to have a revolution. But I just don’t know. The Constitution setup the branches of the government in such a naive way. There are no true checks and balances, just gentleman’s agreements to “behave in the best interests of the country”. To wit, the Constitution was designed to be a living document to be amended and changed to fit the current society it governs, but this has not been the case. Impeachment does nothing, we have a convicted felon in the White House and a foreign born national directing policy. These are uncharted waters but I don’t think anything short of a general strike will change anything.
