Health insurance companies don't care that people are starting to realize that insurance is a scam. They're already onto the next scam: influencing politicians to enact policies that would lead to the defunding of public hospitals so that they can buy them up and own the entire healthcare system.

Whenever anyone laments the state we’re in, they’re met with a chorus of “but what do we do?” As plenty of good options are available, this response might often be wilful impotence*. I invite you all to nominate in this thread the best proposals and practices, around which we should gather. Thanks

Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner

In two weeks of that campaign, Walz did such a good job getting Democrats energized/excited while knocking Republicans off balance and making them look small/weak that Democratic leadership yanked him off national media and replaced him on the campaign trail with Liz Cheney/Adam Kinzinger.

Who is persuaded when you say that AI a useless product? Thousands of people use it every day and are happy with what they’re getting. Do you think that can’t convince people just by telling them that AI is bad for society and the planet? It’s deeply uncompelling and probably does harm to the cause.

What's actually going on right now: Years ago, a bunch of startups started making competitors to YouTube/Twitch and other assorted social media websites. They were immediately colonized by the alt-right, as they found it hard to exist on mainstream social media at that time.

No coincidence that this Signal nonsense happened only days after Trump's pick to lead the FCC, Brendan Carr, said he wants to "smash the censorship cartel", in reference to conservatives being censored on social media. Bluesky will not fight for you. These people are only out for themselves.

BlueSky is trying to monetize so let's show them some numbers: Reskeet this if you refuse to pay for BlueSky+ until trust & safety decides to prioritize marginalized users. That's $96 / year of lost revenue for each reskeet...

We’re often left grasping for the right words to describe the current moment because we’re using complicated language to describe simple ideas. Learn from how kids talk. Few adults are as adept in communicating their feelings as toddlers are. “I’m mad!” “That hurts!” “I don’t like that.”
