This song feels incredibly relevant today.

All I’m saying is I think we need to hear what the gays of Hormuz have to say about all this

I wish people had liberatory aspirations beyond “maybe our military could commit fewer war crimes in the course of routine imperialism”

someone at the pentagon frantically typing “Claude, open the strait of Hormuz for me, quickest possible strategy, make no mistakes.”

Yes, it is totally unprecedented for the US to launch an illegal war in an oil rich country in the Middle East and for Congress to do nothing to stop it

The only explanation is that Russia is behind it.

The Discourse has become sort of numb to the fact that the richest guy on earth and owner of a major social media platform just routinely spits out the kind of nakedly white supremacist shit that until a decade ago you rarely saw outside of places like Stormfront.

She also explained why mandatory age verification is a terrible idea. Does this mean E&C Dems now oppose it?

This is exactly right.

Age verification / online ID check legislation literally forces companies to collect MORE data on children (and everyone else) not less.

We desperately need privacy, antitrust, and algorithmic justice legislation.

Not censorship bills like KOSA and expanded surveillance.

tons of revolutionary books were published anonymously for years

protest leaders used pseudonyms and other ways of protecting themselves from reprisal.

there are ways address harms like bot accounts without forced online ID checks.

but also, bots are not worse than fascism, they're just not

working on a punked up studio version of this earnest lil protest banger. stay tuned

i would respect organizations like @fairplayforkids.bsky.social so much more if they would just come out and admit that they are pro-censorship.

like, reasonable people can believe that keeping kids away from harmful content is worth collateral damage to speech.

just own that that's your position

but beyond the long well-documented history of anonymous speech leading to positive societal change, it should be pretty obvious to anyone with critical thinking skills why the ability to anonymously criticize governments is a basic human right

it's so ppl don't get kidnapped & tortured for speech?

lol what? you are wildly, incredibly, and provably wrong about that. www.ifs.org/blog/protect....

This is exactly right.

We desperately need privacy, antitrust, and algorithmic justice legislation.

Not censorship bills like KOSA and expanded surveillance.

so you oppose the bill now because they removed the (harmful, poorly drafted) duty of care but not before when it would just get trans kids killed?

cool. cool. seems like you've got your priorities straight.

Blackburn is one of the reps who introduced the Kids Online Safety Act and is leading the charge to "protect" children by censoring anything the government deems "harmful" to them online. While talking about KOSA, she also said children need to be protected "from the transgender in this culture"

Congress Is Considering Abolishing Your Right to Be Anonymous Online The bipartisan push to remove anonymity from the internet is ushering in an era of unprecedented mass surveillance and censorship.

"Stripping anonymity from the internet would constitute one of the most sweeping rollbacks of civil rights in recent history. It would allow for unprecedented levels of mass surveillance and censorship, endangering the most marginalized members of society."

I think it's okay to believe keeping teens off the Internet is so important it's worth subjecting everyone to "papers please" ID checks everywhere they go online.

I just think people who believe that should have to acknowledge they are okay with activists & journalists being tortured and murdered 🤷‍♀️

i've changed my mind. repeal section 230

I’m a Brit ducking missiles in Israel. Where is my government?

Fucketh around findeth out

Congress Is Considering Abolishing Your Right to Be Anonymous Online The bipartisan push to remove anonymity from the internet is ushering in an era of unprecedented mass surveillance and censorship.

You should be able to criticize your government anonymously online.

Full stop.

"Age verification" legislation is just a pretty name for "forced online ID checks," meaning everything you post is associated with your government name

We have to stop this.

We thank @aoc.bsky.social for speaking the truth about age verification in the House E&C hearing today! As she stated plainly, and we agree, age verification is a smoke-screen for censorship. It is NOT about kids safety!
