Facebook is blocking readers from sharing The Nerd Reich newsletter.
I assumed this was a simple error rather than nefarious censorship.
But Meta support says my newsletter might be blocked because it "addresses topics like the 'Network State' concept and critiques of tech industry figures." 👀

It's a scam, it's a grift, it's a crime spree
How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million.
How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65
Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

Never forget that Trump was the culmination of 40 years of stagnant wages, widening inequality, corruption, dog-whistle politics, and economic gains for the rich.
If we fail to address this, we should expect future Trumps as far as the eye can see.

I’ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now. I’ve watched as corporations ransacked our system. In 1952, the corporate share of federal tax revenue was 32%. In 2020, it was down to 7%. Here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.

For me, one of the most fascinating finds of Neolithic figural art. A group of limestone figurines, probably a hoard, from the Xaghra stone circle, Gozo, Malta.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library

People need to start emailing banks and say you are concerned about your money and what is happening at the US Treasury and feel banks are insecure. Can Musk take your money from the bank. If everyone starts doing this it will put pressure on the banks and pressure on republicans. Spread far & wide
