Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike
It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Don't fall for it. They know the tide is turning and are doing what they can to save their own asses. Cops are not your friends. Cops literally have no professional obligation to protect you from harm.

Austin PD's statement was even more explicitly pro-protest, they literally thanked everyone for coming out lol

Suddenly leftists are completely forgetting the concept of safety in numbers because it requires them to sacrifice a modicum of comfort.

If you expect ONLY high risk people to mask, not only is that less effective at protecting us, but wearing a mask functions like a giant neon sign.

It becomes a lot harder to single out people wearing a mask if more people wear masks. This is Solidarity 101.

7 million people is just over *2%* of the population of the US. That's one out of every fifty people in the entire country!

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.
The Obama Hope poster, but it's a frog and it says "Hop"

I guess it's time to repost this again

(The quoted post in it is old news, but the post itself is relevant once more.)

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

Remember:

- they DO NOT CARE about your arguments/rebuttals

- they DO NOT CARE about your dunks

- the person running the accounts was specifically hired to drive engagement BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY; it’s the algorithm they’re catering to

This is a game, and to them you are data to be manipulated.

I have a lot of urges to piss off a lot of people. I'd have to think about it to figure out if it'd raise the ire of any specific fando--oh, Homestuck. Yeah, I do.

Of course women don't like the Cybertruck.

Women only want one thing, and it's a vintage Subaru Sambar kei truck!
A photograph of a 5th generation Subaru Sambar from Wikipedia. It's a short white pickup truck with a low bed and a compact front, typical of a kei truck.

0% petty. It's not even that niche among gaming, especially since this stuff bleeds into mobile games with broad audiences

Microtransactions/lootboxes and other skeevy obfuscating and manipulative monetization practices in gaming.

It's a niche and possibly even petty concern, but I took a firm ethical stance that I didn't want to introduce my audience to games that could give them a god damn gambling addiction!

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?
