I'd rather we nip things in the bud, defeat fascism earlier and avoid millions of deaths. My point was to think about what we can do different this time so we won't get the same treatment because we resisted and stopped Trump.

Boycotting Twitter and all of Musk's companies is now more urgent than ever. Grok is going to be even more rigged to spew out hateful nonsense.

If the people you subscribe to are not ones who monetization is important you may want to consider reaching out to them and asking if they'd consider cross posting to PeerTube or another YouTube alternative. They may appreciate not putting all their eggs in one basket and reaching new potential fans.

If Republicans want to play that game Democrats should hold hearings on Trump's mental fitness. He's the one who's actually in office and the one who clearly has cognitive decline.

I hope they crush SpaceX one day.

Registered Democrats in NYC: you have the chance to make a difference right now! Vote early now or show up June 24 for the NYC mayor primary. Fully fill out your ballot with five ranked choices. Exclude sexual abuser Cuomo from your ballot because even if you put him last it could in theory help him.

Keep boycotting all of Musk's companies until he's bankrupt and behind bars. Boycott Tesla and boycott Twitter. Remember to tell your friends that Tesla cars are unsafe because of their electric locks that can trap people in the cars in an accident and have build quality issues.

Why pay money to a company who wants to destroy you? No government should give a dime to Peter Thiel's Palantir. Thiel is an evil sociopath who may have murdered his boyfriend. He also wants to basically abolish government. A government giving money to Palantir is like a snake eating its own tail.

Did she get some fake Botox?

Gillibrand must be primaried. Gillibrand's top donor to her campaign was AIPAC and she's received a lot of money from Coinbase (cryptocurrency) and Andreessen Horowitz (yes Andreessen as in Marc Andreessen the egg-head Trump donor).

Screw those people and screw Rogan and Spotify itself for not only allowing Andrew Tate's hate, but also Rogan's disinformation and recently allowing Bannon back on to Spotify.

I urge everyone to contact Spotify or cancel your subscription and when you cancel be very sure to fill out the reason why you canceled.

I recently asked ChatGPT to write an email just out of curiosity to see what it would do and it ended the email with "thank you for your attention to this matter". I ended up writing the email myself because after many iterations it was still worse than writing it myself. Perhaps AI is writing Trump's tweets?

Just make voting mandatory and give people time off to vote. Read about Australia's voting system. It's really awesome and I wish we could have something like that here.

There are companies which offer training and support to FOSS. Companies could also pay those companies.

Instead of some greasy podcast hack I'd much rather hear from professional military analysts and foreign policy experts. Bannon's opinion doesn't matter in the same way my opinion on how to perform open heart surgery doesn't matter because I don't know anything about open heart surgery.

Also what's disgusting is Spotify recently allowed Bannon's podcast back on. That's why I'm again calling for people to contact Spotify and complain about bringing War Room back, about Joe Rogan's disinformation and Andrew Tate's hate. Or consider canceling your subscription and when you cancel fill out the reason why you canceled, mention it's because of Bannon, Rogan and Tate.

This is proof right here that Musk has not stepped away. More pressure against Musk! Boycott Twitter, boycott Tesla, boycott Starlink, buy stocks in SpaceX's competitors. Keep boycotting until he's bankrupt.

I sometimes wonder what if everyone who spends money on licensing fees instead takes the same amount of money and puts it into FOSS. Imagine what we could achieve? Likely the money would be used more efficiently because they could donate it to non-profit companies which don't need to pay tax.

You did something today: you helped remind me of him, with so much chaos he slipped my mind.

If you're feeling frustrated by lack of power to do anything what you can do to help is chip away Trump's pillars of support. Have you ever played Jenga? If you pull out enough blocks the tower will eventually fall. The biggest blocks holding up Trump are the billionaire wealthy donors and the right-wing propaganda machine.

Twitter is an example of both right-wing propaganda machine and owned by the biggest political donor to the GOP and one that we all can easily make a difference in by personally stop using it if you have an account and urging your friends and family to also stop using Twitter. Then try contacting organizations with an account and ask them to switch to Bluesky. And of course boycott Tesla and boycott Starlink too. If you like buying stocks maybe invest in SpaceX's competitors.

For billionaire donors you can boycott their companies for example Uline is another big donor. We can make a difference. I see them as a good boycott target due to their reputation of being overpriced. Whenever you buy something online look at the box and labels. Do you see the words Uline on it? If so contact the vendor and tell them that Uline is overpriced and unethical, they can save money by switching to another supplier. This post shows someone about cut their costs in half by switching away from Uline: https://bsky.app/profile/geneha.com/post/3low65f4zac2d and https://refuseuline.com/ has a long list of alternatives.

Another big donor is the fossil fuel industry. I recently made a post about what you can do about that.

This time we need aggressive offense. Relentlessly and accurately blame the Republicans for every single failure they caused.

The irony is when we get over this we'll likely end up replacing our American-born doctors with immigrants to replace all the people lost.
