Free speech is more than me being allowed to say what I want. Everyone also has to like it and tell me I'm a smart and handsome boy

This was well thought out and is going to go very well.
Did you know that the ADL's Mamdani Tip Line is live and that you can submit instances where Zohran Mamdani is being anti-Semitic for them to investigate? www.adl.org/mamdani-moni...

Shivani Damisetti realised social media was derailing her life. Now, she spends more time offline, a decision she's found transformative.

Giving the Nazis days of nation-wide headline media coverage every time they do a ten minute photo op is not a good way to get them to stop doing photo ops.

one of the most harmful things about the contemporary internet is the propagation of conspiracy-type thinking en masse
it's gotten to the point where the average highly online person is part of at least one epistemological community that's totally divorced from the rest of reality

I don't think people realize how much a trillion dollars is.
Let's say you get paid a million dollars per day. That's a lot, right?
If you spend none of it and pay no taxes, you'll have a trillion dollars in approximately two thousand seven hundred (2700) YEARS.
No one should have that much.

Australia's scandal-ridden childcare sector a legacy of 'golden age' of reform
The decision by past governments to push Australia's childcare industry in the direction of marketisation and corporatisation has left a lasting legacy.

That ceasefire I did where I still Kill All the People.
Remember that ceasefire everyone praised Trump for securing between Israel & Gaza?
Netanyahu just massacred 104 Palestinian civilians, including 46 children, on the mere accusation that Hamas handed over the 'wrong' corpse
HE MASSACRED 46 CHILDREN & I doubt you've heard one media outlet mention it

We’ve already seen quite a few examples of ICE agents trying to kidnap someone and eventually giving up and running away because a crowd had gathered and shouted them down. That’s EFFECTIVE.
A lot of folks may think that just yelling at ICE agents is ineffective, but consider the cumulative psychological toll of being yelled at EVERY DAY when trying to do shit. Even the biggest asshole in the world who doesn't give a shit about other people will feel the pressure.

In the wake of Charlie Kirk's death, a TN sheriff had a 61-yr-old man arrested for posting a meme on Facebook, which the sheriff absurdly construed as a threat. It was pretty clearly bullshit but I dug into the case using FB & public records and now it looks even worse. My latest @theintercept.com:
The Absurd Prosecution of a Man Who Posted a Charlie Kirk Meme
Larry Bushart Jr. posted trolling memes on a Facebook thread about a vigil for Kirk. He’s been in a Tennessee jail ever since.
