This is Silicon Valley and has been for at least 30 years.

Especially before exporting strong crypto was legalized. Hehehe

I was on the ground floor of the cypherpunk movement in the 90s, witnessed the Silicon Valley libertarians first hand, and summarized it thus.

I'll see about picking up a copy of her book. Should be an interesting read.

"Libertarianism: A political philosophy for white dudes who haven't wondered why 95% of the adherents to this philosophy are white dudes."

Hahaha... Is that one Trump approved?

Due to recent events, I'm wondering if anyone knows what I should do with my "Antifa Membership Card"? 🙄

Meet the Polish LARPers Who Pretend to Be American Roleplaying as people celebrating the 4th of July in Ohio is a unique take on LARP, to say the least.

This is brilliant!

Double taps are meant to kill first responders and reporters. Even if your (in my opinion im-) morality somehow finds bombing a hospital acceptable, killing those who are attempting to help or report on the wounded and dying is pure evil.

Spain considers maltreatment because of your sexuality or gender identity as reason for asylum. It is not perfect at all in its treatment of refugees, but it is one of the best.

Seriously... Keep your children away from people with Trump lawn signs. #epsteinfiles

ps... I think that this is the first hashtag that I've ever added ;-D

Trump is trying to outracist the Epstein files with each tweet in the hopes of recapturing his base.

😂

“These Small Victories are the Lifeblood of Change”: 2024 Annual Report Viewing the migration and refugee landscape today, it is all too easy to despair. Which is why it is so important for us to take stock of the real impacts that we have made. As this Annual Report…

Having grown up on a farm, worked with migrant workers, had family and friends who were migrant workers or sons, daughters, grandkids, etc... of them, I find this absolutely appalling. Hell, I find it absolutely appalling just on a "how we should treat human beings" level.

Perhaps the external threats that Europe now faces are enough to get movement. Especially if it drives out the internal threats to democracy.

Thank you for sending that. Her speech embodies why I want to live here. Uniting the countries to get anything done has always been problematic here. When they do unite however, they have produced the best quality of life in the world.

omg... reading the comments... all of the mansplaining moments are so cringeworthy and funny

It's not enough to just hit the streets. To use non-violent resistance, you need to provoke a response. The best way to do this with someone like Donald Trump is to strike at his income. Fill the streets around his properties so that they can't do business. I bet he responds.
