How do you pronounce systemctl?

I've said it before but I'll say it again now because its more relevant than ever.

If you go to a protest and try to redirect people to the polls you are a distraction and are actively inhibiting productive political organization. You are a distraction. Voting is a distraction.

When Obama was elected he decided to let the fucking pigs propose reforms for themselves, so you can't seriously tell me that there is real change in a ballot when we're actually dismantling police forces right now.

fedi people need to chill tf out in discourse rn, its so heated that me, an anticapitalist anarchist, got called a racist capitalist pig in a thread about environmentalism where I agreed with the OP, and a stalker for accidentally sending a second follow request to someone once!

Can discourse exist on fedi without turning into instant hateful misinterpretation and gaslighting? I hope so, because it makes it harder for neurodiverse people who can't pick up on y'all's signals to not get yelled at for trying to add a mild amount of nuance to somebody's take when we AGREED. I know at least three other people who've left because they were ostracized by your bullshit craving to cancel someone once a week when they didn't even do anything wrong. Can we save cancelling people for, y'know, transphobes and such, rather than our comrades who have trouble reading your mood over the internet? Frankly it is ableist, and yes, using slurs isn't the only form of ableism that exists. Thanks for listening instead of cancelling me less than halfway through reading this post, you've done a better job than most lately.

Queer acceptance into capitalism and state systems is just assimilation into cisheternormative lifestyles

Firefox going ahead with enabling DoH by default with only one alternative provider to CloudFlare. https://www.theverge.com/2020/2/25/21152335/mozilla-firefox-dns-over-https-web-privacy-security-encryptio

Now the majority of Firefox users have unknowingly bought into a security bargain to exchange the trust of their local ISP for CloudFlare or NextDNS. Since I wrote my last blog post last year about the announcement this was being rolled out, Mozilla has still done fuck-all to fix the issue of limited providers who all have a history of censorship and surveillance. Their "stringent requirements" for who can be one of their DoH providers are complete bullshit if they are okay with CloudFlare. I'd recommend disabling DoH entirely in the meantime unless you have your own trustworthy provider that you've manually configured.

Eeeee!!!!

People trying to redefine discrimination as what happens when anyone gets oppressed versus marginalized groups are pretty obviously trying to ensure that shit like "reverse racism" is treated as seriously as racism to completely nullify the point of that kind of community policy.

You can't get oppressed when you already have the privilege and the power. That's called speaking truth to power, not "discrimination".
