Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids.
Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

Sad as it is to say, the greatest consoling thought I have as we march towards a fascism is how unlikely it is to last not because people are brave, or moral, or prepared to combat it... but because it's expensive to maintain, and the man driving us to it couldn't even keep a fucking casino afloat.

looked up the clip just because sometimes people change his words for captions that end up innocently reshared, but upon finding it decided to share the video because hearing him say it makes it 1000% more definitely true and everyone will listen/believe more than reading it written out

To a great degree we’re dealing with the fallout from a generation of men who got lucky once during a specific moment in tech evolution, made to feel as gods, but are all now suffering their mid-life crises having accomplished nothing else of note.
These men have made nothing other than money.

i have seen exactly zero evidence to suggest that peter thiel is anything other than a dumbass who got lucky once
New argument against AI regulation just dropped. Checkmate, atheists.

Bsky will be censoring non-con content on 15th. This meaning:
- The correct bad content
But also
- Classic paintings of history
- Fictional stories and scenes
Censorship keeps spreading, sadly.
It would be easier if they let us tag content and filter at will.
But NOooo

What the heck
When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free.
When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

The fall of tumblr won't be in history books but it should be.
'A NSFW ban won't negatively affect me, I don't draw or post porn!'
You sure? Here's how it went down when tumblr did it:
