Deliberately attacking civilian infrastructure is an obvious war crime. We should never get used to this type of warfare. Whenever someone outside of Ukraine says he's "tired" of this war, he should try to imagine how tired ordinary Ukrainians are. They've been tremendously suffering for years now.

This whole discourse is a rejection of adulthood & its discontents, a special pleading for men to be exempted from some unpleasantries like:
* No one is entitled to sex.

* It's very common for people not to get what they want.

Women are expected to put up with the above & it's not a crisis, ever.

Es ist wahnsinnig anstrengend, sich ständig über jeden Shit von Faschisten wie Trump empören zu müssen. Man kann es fast gar nicht.

Die Alternative aber wäre, dass wir uns daran gewöhnen und das wäre um ein Tausendfaches schlimmer. Wir müssen uns empören. Nichts hier ist ok, nichts ist vertretbar.

Man sollte die Tech-Bosse als das bezeichnen, was sie sind: zynische, menschenfeindliche Irre mit einem kriminellen Plan.
Dzt scheint die internationale Politik die Handlungshoheit zu verlieren. Sie muss sie durch Regulierung und teilweise Verbote zu KI, Algorithmen, Plattformen, Medien zurückholen.

At this moment, the incessant and chaotic attacks on freedom can make collective action feel daunting or even impossible. And while collective and sustained action is never fail-proof, it has disrupted the administration’s censorship campaign. 11/

So ginge es: Einige Staaten (FR, England, ESP, D, etc) mit sehr guten Mannschaften erklären, nur in Mexiko oder Kanada spielen zu wollen. Vielleicht schließt sich sogar BRA an. Das wäre populärer als Absage und machbar. FIFA wird hier (leider) sicher nichts machen.
In einer besseren Welt würde ein Weltfußballverband nun Kanada und Mexiko ersuchen, auch die Austragung der für die USA geplanten Spiele zu übernehmen und würde das mit der unabdingbaren Geltung der Menschenrechte und der Achtung der Würde der Menschen begründen. Es wäre ein wichtiges Signal.

Idea: "The unbillionaires list", to promote contributors to the common.

A collaborative website that lists people who created something useful to millions but purposedly choose to put in in the common and didn’t earn money directly from it (or not as much as expected)

Besides those listed in […]

But when I asked an organizer what they wanted to see out of press coverage, they told me they wanted people to see the beautiful things they are building here, and not just the worst stories of the worst of ICE's crimes.

What people are doing here is beautiful. It's a tragic beauty, but a real one

I don't want to paint a rosy picture, because it's a city under siege. People are being abducted all the time. One person told me about watching 1-2 abductions a day, just in her own work following ICE.

It's genuinely a leaderless (or leaderful) movement, decentralized in a way that the state is absolutely unequipped to handle. There are a few basic skills involved, and so people teach each other those skills, and people are collectively refining them.

I have been actively involved in protest movements for 24 years. I have never seen anything approaching this scale. Minneapolis is not accepting what's happening here. ICE fucking murdered a woman for participating in this, and all that did is bring out more people, from more walks of life.

Trumps Zoll-Drohungen zeigen: Die von der Leyen-Zusage für 750 Mrd. Dollar zusätzlich fossile Energie in den USA zu kaufen, war ein irrer Fehler. Eine weitere Erpressbarkeit ist entstanden. Wir müssen uns von fossilem Gas & Öl befreien. Wärmepumpe und grünen Wasserstoff verbreiten statt ausbremsen!

When a politician talks about paid protesters it's journalistic malpractice to not immediately ask who's funding them, and when they can't answer ask why they can't bribe these paid protesters to tell them.
Kristi Noem: "When we did these operations in other cities across the country, we didn't see this kind of violence. We didn't see organized, funded protesters come in to conduct acts of violence against our law enforcement officers like we're seeing in Minneapolis."

Also, pointing out a situation sucks isn't the same as saying nothing should be done about it, quite the opposite.

And to be clear, thats not to say these efforts are worthless or people shouldn't bother, but that there's an opportunity here which can be easily wasted, especially for those who want legal accountability in the future.

Ein paar anständige Politiker:innen und Qualitätsjournalismus können unsere Welt wieder hinbiegen.

Wir müssen Erstere wählen und Geld und Zeit für Zweiteres aufwenden.

Mit dem einzigen Risiko, dass es fader ist, als die Apokalypse.

This is both genuinely nice to read, and also worrying because I feel like I half-arse this shit all the time because I'm only one person perpetually behind a (self-imposed) deadline. It'd be nice to imagine people with massive media organisations doing better, not worse, than one bloke.
