ok. im not arguing the morality case here, im just um actuallying the class analysis. Authors are not workers, they are artisans. This is fine. I am an artisan. But artisans are not proletarian, they are petit bourgeois. IP is not a cut-and-dried worker's rights issue, it's...slightly complex
This one gets me yelled at but yeah IP is just a workers rights issue. It doesn't get more leftist when the consumer demands my surplus labour value instead of the bosses Quiting Ian Boudreau I imagine most of the people trying to claim that stealing indie ebooks is leftism simply have never had to worry about paying rent or for groceries but sorry, your desire for free luxury goods is outweighed by the material needs of their creators

ok i get where he's coming from but also white people love answering this question. there is nothing a white person wants to do more than explain, in laborious detail, exactly what their ancestry/family history is. this is, if anything, a really nice thing to do for the white people in your life

Post by Void (they) @gendervoid.gay "As a victim of CSA and sex trafficking the fact that @jay.bsky.team and @aaron.bsky.team are fine with suspending people who speak out against CSA and abusers like totes gives off Mundus sine caesaribus vibes. ✨ Great job girly pops." Reply from Aaron Rodericks @aaron.bsky.team "First I’m sorry that you had such tragic experiences. That’s horrific. 1) if a person on the news, such as a female journalist talks about a topic, does she deserve threats in a joking way? 2) would you believe those acceptable to receive on your account?"

If you want to vicariously experience this, listen to a band called Shadow Gallery. I don't want to speculate on what Mike Baker's politics were, but eeeh anti-government guy from Alaska whose band had 3 albums mostly about or strongly inspired by conspiracy theories, and who was pretty Christian...
2. War For Sale [Music: B. Allman, C. Ingles, Lyrics, Vocal Melodies: C.Cadden-James] Time came to leave You know there's something About the principle Of what goes on behind the scenes The military machine The way they led me on... Stiletto in the sand Thrusted down in anger Bloody to the handle Diamond red Machines of mass destruction Well I helped to design them The guilt of children's blood stains on my hands The word from the board room Our boys in Tehran have scored How long till we realize the truth? The bottom line of defense and world security The bankers and the ministry of arms Just cut the deal and the war is on The village burned the desert set ablaze Who are these men with their finger's in everybody's pie? Big rockets and their profiles all the rage Their business plan calls for ware for sale Please understand Until I saw all this I never thought about the third world trampled under wheels Out in the streets and in the fields I simply questioned it all... Stiletto in the sand Fingers on the triggers Tempers boiling over Bleed them red Machines of mass destruction Oh why did I design them? The guilt of children's blood stains on my hands 5. Society Of Mind [Music: Brendt Allman, Gary Wehrkamp] [Lyrics, Vocal Melodies: Carl Cadden-James] Brand new day Somewhere so far away A global village awakes and starts to crack the open airway's Cause the tiger's escaped He tore right out of his cage It's like a spark to a flame Assimilating it's collective on the way Like turning on a light the brain's online tonight All around the world That freedom in the air big brother is aware Or within my dreams? And do you think it dreams of life are we the air it needs? Are we the air this beast needs to breathe The engines's tuned and clean time for man and machine to join Society of the mind School today A sea of seething rage And on the menu in the lunchroom we got Ritallin and Prozac So I can concentrate On my next level in Quake Where I can shoot them I can kill them And dehumanize the cancer in my veins Online you gotta sell your virtual as hell All around the world 3. The Andromeda Strain Lying by the dying flame Drifting off to sleep She drops the black leather journal She's been clutching tight She's a bio-engineer, hazard level four She works the hot zone all the day The demon seed smallpox weapons grade Bought from Israeli intelligence Gone rouge for a price Decode the genome right down to the DNA You break the code and you just might save the day A serpent rising genetic weaponizing There's a portent of pure evil lying out there in the dark The hand of terror stands poised to ride out on the wind Can we counter this undeserved hatred Through our science and our research and the wisdom of our age Or are we doomed to suffer at the hands of the Andromeda Strain? Microscopic warfare the demon will retreat From breakthrough after breakthrough Using her own rare blood type the serum came to life Time to publish and go clinical trial But wait, a secret document sealed slipped through A most insidious plot unfolds Limited release to drive the need through the roof The guaranteed supply secures the deal it's been approved Assuring the quarter and the year A serpent rising genetic weaponizing What kind of twisted mind turns terror into cash Sends the innocent to their death You try to fight it but criminals united Pharmaceutical injustice is a terror all its own For want of power and love for the bottom line They'll unleash the Andromeda Strain 11. New World Order [Music: C. Cadden-James, G. Wehrkamp Lyrics and Vocal Melodies: C.Cadden-James] Good day my fellow citizen I don't mean to intrude But allow me to get right down to the point We've monitored transmissions We calculate your moves Did you really think you're hidden from our sight? Your name's been added to a list that's been compiled Our agency considers you a risk

Archiving this, because jfc what the hell
Post from libcrusher.bsky.social: Reactivating temporarily to send a warning. Since I got doxxed, it appears the same doxxing ring has targeted several other users. I learned that they were banned this week, only for Elon to, apparently, personally unban them. I feel obliged to warn everyone about my experience. Post from libcrusher: It wasn't just my personal information that got published. Someone, somewhere, got my passwords too. For my banking accounts, brokerage accounts, venmo, etc. Most of which had different and unique passwords. All these attempts started the day i got doxxed, and have sporadically continued since. If you know anyone who's been doxxed by this group, you need to have them change all their passwords on every website immediately. Ensure 2FA and any other security measures are in place everywhere. And, wherever possible, document and report it. Frankly, if you're a lefty of any note, do it now too If anyone was also a victim of this or knows someone who was, there are ways to reach me. I wish I could go into more details right now. But until that time comes, protect yourself.

after this election someone needs to convince curtis that there is a political home for him, but it isn't in America.
Tweet from Jeff Coltin @JCColtin 16h "Oh, Tupac!" Curtis Sliwa says noticing a man's shirt on 125th street in Harlem. "You know Assata Shakur, Joanne Chesimard...she was his kin. I have Guardian Angels in Baltimore, I know a lot of his kinfolk." Quoting the above tweet Asad @AsadFromNYC Curtis Sliwa just became the first Republican candidate for officce invoking the recently passed Assata Shakur positively. Another one of those "only in New York" things.

im not quote tweeting this because i refuse to do friendly fire, but ehhh the consensus is that purging the officer corps contributed heavily to the initial defeats during barbarossa
"I put it to you that ending the Holocaust is more important than a bunch of 1930s army generals 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️" Quoting "Jane Coaston @janecoaston.bsky.social I am so sorry I cannot live up to... Joseph Stalin. I will now purge my generals and rip people's teeth out in penance."

No there were absolutely nazi collaborators among the poles. I mean, there were polish nationalists who were trying to outdo the nazis on antisemitism before the war!

The deputy editor-in-chief of the Sun is crossing the Atlantic in March to head the New York Post Group as the paper grows its digital presence. Keith Poole is the first person to be tapped as editor-in-chief of the New York Post Group, where he will oversee the two top editors, Stephen Lynch, editor-in-chief of the print edition, and Michelle Gotthelf, editor-in-chief of digital. Poole joined the Sun in 2016 as digital editor, helping to build it into the UK’s largest digital news brand. The London-based tabloid is owned by News Corp., which also owns The Post. Prior to joining the Sun, Poole worked for more than a dozen years at the Daily Mail, another UK paper, including a stint as managing editor of the MailOnline in New York. Col Allan, former editor-in-chief of The Post who has served as a senior adviser since 2019, will retire in early March. “I’ve always admired the bold and brash journalism of the New York Post, and to now be a part of this legendary organization is a dream come true for a journalist like me,” Poole said in a statement.
