This is utterly insane!

mstambolis.bsky.social•27 days ago

It is. There is no way to downplay or minimize the seriousness of what's happening in the US.

Tout le monde a prévenu, tout le monde savait, cela a été désiré par les Républicains et les votants. On doit en prendre acte. Extrême droite jamais ne déçoit dans le pire.

L'heure est à l'action. Même à une petite échelle et dans la limite des capacités de chacun•e...

nachtergael.bsky.social•27 days ago

Oui. Et même dans la misère, il reste l’éthique, la morale pour guide.

mstambolis.bsky.social•27 days ago

C'est vrai. Tu fais bien de le rappeler.

Everyone should get to know the Wayback Machine, or Internet Archive. People can access many websites at many previous points in time. Digital book burning is still bad, but let's inform people of this info source!

mstambolis.bsky.social•27 days ago

Yes but... the Internet Archive does not persevere the databases themselves.

urbanaphrodite.bsky.social•27 days ago

Yea, that is a problem. I have accessed many webpages' past snapshots where pdf reports can still be downloaded, though, so that is helpful.

Indeed ☺️

Indeed, quite striking similarities
