I'm paraphrasing Zizek, but he said "the left needs a leader that controls executive power" and he's right. There's a difference between a benevolent dictator and a tyrant. Trump is a tyrant, in which he yields his power to prosecute and persecute. A benevolent dictator uses their power as a force for good, think FDR and whatnot.

Starmer is not even left — he's properly into Tory spreadsheet economic algorithms.

"Fascism" should not be used lightly. It's a very old political theory. Many of the complaints are that they're lazy or non-working, they should be able to work, pay taxes and succeed in life. Instead of succumbing to the forever hellhole that's hotels and unemployment.

Remember that student that was like "free Palestine!" And then the reporter was like "we're not here to talk about Palestine."

Seems like neutrality is silence.

Source on the below 20% statistic? From the headlines I've been seeing is that there's a Reform UK majority.

Donors go where the public goes, and that's Reform UK from what it looks like. The media is fuelling a fire on immigration right now. Keir Starmer is a grilled crisp at this point — and the boiling cob is going to explode.

Everyone voted on his promises, none of them actually fulfilled. That's it, we're done for.

All out street warfare against Linux users! They'll be arming their army with AI laser guided missiles! The backdoored AI drones!

The situation is dire in the UK. Surveillance up and about everywhere — it never stops. It seems like none of the politicians actually listen to anyone other than the GCHQ experts!

1. Use privacy respecting cryptocurrencies for exchanges. This can be done between two individuals or at businesses, especially small businesses.
2. Yes, it seems like they're doing it on a consensus level in the UK. This is because consumers would rather use banking apps because it is convenient for them.
3. In the UK it is very common to use a card and contactless payment. It's very concerning because this trend is bringing the government to trace UK bank accounts to prevent "fraud". Which could target people on benefits for instance. Many are worried that benefits claimants will have their application scrutinized based on their spending habits. Disability rights is now becoming a political conversation about how and where they spend their money, which is mortifying.

This is just hearsay but apparently GrapheneOS will be unaffected from Play Store control.

We need people to actually verify the safety and validity of these platforms. As far as I think, if we're not able to validate the code as open source, how can we know what these companies are doing with our data?

Does this even effect GrapheneOS? Could they not use their own package installer by getting rid of the installer code?

Both ends need working on. I think creating and supporting new movements require change, it starts with individuals fighting for more rights on a microscopic level. Shifting to GrapheneOS will accelerate Google to make changes for the good of all of us.

Be wise and patient. I think our older politicians don't accept these concepts, but as our young grow into old then we've got a platform to fight for.

Probably from bashing his hands after talking to Putin

My problem with this is when I now don't have freedom from surveillance in my country because I mainly use F-Droid to install my privacy conscious apps.

Big up for the GrapheneOS team for building a very secure operating system despite Google software developers trying their hardest to lock down the system!

As Plato says... And people act like there's no solution when this happens.

"No code" is just another way of saying there is a base of code. Call it base code instead!

"You are not the centre of the universe!" Is just another person tells us that there aren't me's

Amerikuh fuck yeah! 🇺🇸
