I wonder who that babe quoted in the third slide could be… must be someone really sexy and involved in direct action or something
Our full statement is in these graphics, and our message remains steadfast and clear: “so long as our aerospace industry remains dependent on imperialist militaries and complicit in genocide, there are growing numbers of people willing to stand up and take action”.

Relishing the moment of seeing human rights for trans people expanding instead of contracting. Great mahi, Kenya!
it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like
"A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act."
fuck yeah

Auror, the “we don’t do live facial recognition” company, rolling out live facial recognition across all of its sites in NZ.
Which is over 90% of big brand retail shops across the country 😑

With every story about private companies like Auror (in conjunction with US giant Axon) rolling out facial recognition in New Zealand, and police having access to the data without a warrant or production order, I’m left to conclude privacy is basically the Wild West.

SWers have been speaking to the harms of “save the children” censorship forever, even more so since FOSTA-SESTA. It materially ruins people’s livelihoods with little pushback.
Maybe if we took lead from those at the front line of this fight, we’d be looking at a different battle altogether.

What actual benefit does New Zealand or any place get from hosing an AI datacenter? It's not like we've got excess electricity. And while the economic investment in the data center is huge, the economic impact on the country is a net negative. No taxes or jobs. www.thepress.co.nz/business/360...

A global surge in artificial intelligence is driving demand for data centres, positioning the South Island to reap economic benefits - with AI potentially worth up to $76 billion a year to NZ by 2038.

We need to understand what organised solidarity with Queer and trans people materially looks like, esp with the far right pimple growing in #AoNZ, and this is it.
A question of our time is ‘how do you fight evil?’ The Queer community is answering that through banning political parties from Pride, 3,000+ trans ppl mass lobbying the UK Parliament in person, & in this case the Dyke Project undermining a hateful fake feminist Astro-Turf group thru joy & ridicule.
We watched activists disrupt a ‘gender-critical’ meeting dressed as clowns
Last night, members of The Dyke Project – a collective of cis, trans and nonbinary lesbians – unleashed a series of surreal disruptions at a trans-exclusionary lecture
