“They don’t really care about us,” Smith said. “I will not support companies who don’t choose the greater good in their personal agendas.” Consumers want to see the brands take action for gun violence. It's not only a good business decision, it's a moral imperative. whyy.org/articles/4-p...

Thousands of ads on Facebook/Instagram have promoted “fuel filters” using videos demonstrating how they can be easily modified into gun silencers—a process that, w/o federal approval, could lead to felony charges - despite Meta’s policies banning ads for silencers on the company’s social networks.

President Sheinbaum to Trump: “70% of the illegal weapons seized from criminals in Mexico come f/ your country. We do not produce these weapons, nor do we consume synthetic drugs. Tragically, it is in our country that lives are lost to the violence resulting f/ meeting the drug demand in yours.”

This moment in Bluesky is a great example of how joy itself can be defiance and resistance. We are just hanging out, shitposting, being silly, happy, and normal. It is being treated as if it is transgressive, opting out of the endless negativity. Because in a way, it is. Joy is my favorite weapon.
