Where in my comment did I give anyone an out? I simply added to the conversation by stating a difficulty of organizing.

congrats to them for defending their lively community from your tomfoolery

it looks less angry but still angry. I like it

No witnesses, no suspects. No motive could possibly be speculated!

can you link me to any reporting on that? I haven't read anything specifically but I believe it.

yes the shooting of Michael Brown from 10 years ago. Weird to type out, goddamn

Annoying internet arguments aside, the people on the ground in the core also face the most expansive and advanced police state mankind has created yet. This makes doing anything close to truly subversive impossible without extreme precautions. Some Ferguson organizers dying (being murdered imo) comes to mind.

sometimes when I'm aimlessly internet browsing I'll check out the modlog, and for one, I think there should be a way to filter it by instance, and two: what the fuck is going on on other instances? @robinn2@hexbear.net what did you say lol

i just investigated further and no one uses that community on that instance anyway. Which is even more bizarre of a ban.

This is another one of those things that actually gets taught at decently funded US public prisons schools but much like say, the Korean War, many of these pertinent details are either left out or presented without an ethical/political lens

agree and i appreciate it, I think I was just getting too internet brained and thinking how often the issue is presented disingenuously in a vacuum or tied to a loss of 'cultural values' or w/e

Anyone have some kind of even handed analysis on hand that explains whether or not all this panic for decades about birth/fertility rates has legs? I only ever give it a passing glance and i accidentally clicked a video the other day and it was some rightwing guy talking about some retvrn shit

I asked bc like the article states: the real problem is the price of housing. It seems to me that falling birth rates are a symptom of capitalism's decline. However, many article writers seem to dance around that

Good to hear this, I was worried you might feel differently! I'll provide links, soundcloud might not be the best distribution method. I did it bc I think u deserve more eyes on your hard work!

I don't know what compelled me to do this, but I recorded a voice summary of the headlines and comments presented in the first week's update. Lmk if it's helpful for those who would prefer to listen to the update instead of read @SeventyTwoTrillion@hexbear.net

I'm not sure, it was just sent to me and knew it belonged here
