To be fair, the author looks like he could easily be mistaken as a ghoulish CEO walking down 5th avenue. The guy has certainly made a career being their mouth piece.


Ahh yes, efficiency to “improve the … stewardship of taxpayer dollars”. So instead of actually delivering better services, they can more efficiently deny those services. Sound familiar?


I wonder if this guy is disliked by Americans as much they dislike that UHC CEO, or is it more?


They don’t have a problem with what is being done, just who are the ones doing it.


GitHub definitely would and has in the past. YouTube-dl is on GitHub and gets a pass because it is used by researchers and archivists, both are fair use. forgejo.org would let you be your own fedi-github and might be worth checking out (could be easier than designing a plugin system and additional repos).


Seriously good read on what to do next: https://wagingnonviolence.org/2024/11/10-things-to-do-if-trump-wins/

The fascist power structure is unjust and so it is like an upsidedown pyramid being propped up by pillars: people who do the actual work are the pillars. This pyramid topples when those pillars are removed. This can be a workers’ strike in a certain sector (example given was the eastern shoremen refusing to load weapons for a war).

I’m also struck by how the article says to handle fear. We need to act as community and flip the script on their fear tactics.

The author of the article also has an interesting interview with Sam Seder where they talk about more historical examples: https://youtu.be/YLBM2SEL6Rc


Underated article. Do not surrender political space, find community, trust yourself, make strange alliances.



That or the many other demoralizing speeches. We did not need to hear Clinton talk about human shields.


I don’t think having a diversity in viewpoints on whether kids have rights is something to celebrate.


It’s all about individual freedom until you start asking libertarians about the rights of kids and contractual indentured servitude.
