The scam is so obvious.

Sixty-seven posts in two hours is one every two minutes. I can't type that fast.

Literal Neo-Nazi trash.

Fuck them, fuck Trump, Fuck RepubliKKKlans, and fuck all you cowards who support them.

Also the same dildos who wouldn’t wear a mask during Covid and killed over a million Americans by spreading the virus.

The Tex-ass cattle industry is going to be devastated and bankrupted. The price of beef will skyrocket so high that only millionaires will be able to afford it. The price of all other red blooded proteins will jump as they try to replace beef in the supermarkets. Restaurants, especially fast food chains and local moms and pops will go out of business.

Another great big step on the road to a second worldwide great depression.

Online Age Verification Law Could Kill Whistleblowing

The KIDS Act, ostensibly aimed at protecting children, will raise the risk for journalists, dissidents, and whistleblowers.

"Democrats and Republicans in Congress have struck a deal on a bill they say will help keep children and teens safe online. The KIDS Act could pass on the House floor as soon as next week; if enacted, it would fundamentally change the way everyone — not just kids — accesses the internet.

At stake is your ability to use many social media platforms without revealing your identity. 

That’s because the KIDS Act at least strongly incentivizes — and, for some services, outright requires — age verification. Many platforms will turn to age verification to avoid potential liability under the law. Companies like X, video-sharing services like Vimeo, and others with a history of users’ populating social feeds with edgy content may be required to verify users’ ages because they host a certain amount of content deemed “sexual material harmful to minors,” a term that the KIDS Act defines broadly. 

That’s a big problem for people who need to be able to use the internet anonymously, since, as Taylor Lorenz has previously written about in The Intercept, “there’s no way to reliably verify someone’s age without verifying who they are.” 

Threats to online anonymity harm everyone, but one group is often overlooked: journalists and the sources who talk to them. Age verification requirements will help the Trump administration carry out its vendetta against the press by creating new avenues to identify journalists’ confidential sources. [...]

Mandating age verification effectively hands Big Tech and the government a skeleton key to the identities of every whistleblower, dissident, and investigative reporter who uses online platforms, not to mention everyone else, including children. This kind of surveillance on steroids that surrenders our right to speak, report, and read the news anonymously won’t make anyone safer."

There wasn’t a word on mainstream media about Trump falling asleep during the fireworks last night. http://news.usaunify.org/TTMnlk

Ownership meant a physical copy. Now you own nothing and can't find what you want across multiple streaming platforms.

Bring back headphones that plug in. Bring back expandable memory. Bring back owning media.

[ID: To the people who say Ocasio-Cortez's proposed 70% top marginal tax rate on Americans making over $10 million a year is too radical, remind them of this: under Republican President Eisenhower the top marginal tax rate was 91% on Americans making over $200,000 a year which is $1.7 million in today's dollars.

And it gave him a peculiar, morbid interest in the body parts of dead animals. Don't forget that.
