They want to scare people out of posting ICE-critical content, because they know these posts are turning even their supporters against them. But the better option is to take a page out of their playbook and flood the zone.
Posting about ICE on Instagram is now enough to get you an “administrative subpoena.” 👀

Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies.
For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!

Just finished watching Edge of Darkness for the first time since 1985 and now feel very melancholy. 40 years ago, I thought there would be more drama series like it in the future, the weirdness of cult TV spliced with the intelligence and depth of the best drama. Turned out there was only that one.

The EU is still buying gas from Russia to the tune of billions of €, and has agreed to keep doing so until the end of 2027. That they are thus arming both sides in a brutal war that has claimed hundreds of thousands of lives is, to say the least, perplexing.

I like Epicurus as much as the next man, but do you seriously think you can derive human freedom from the idea (!) that atoms "fall" and "swerve" (stop laughing, physicists). Regardless that you're led to conclude every entity made of atoms is free, you've also made freedom necessary, mechanical
