subtoot, police violence 

white people will literally see someone sitting or laying down outside, assume they're unhoused, and call the cops on them

Fare-free transit just makes sense. We want people on the bus or train instead of driving. So it should be the easy choice. No scrounging for cash or filling up a card, just hop on.

It's more sustainable, it reduces traffic deaths and air pollution, and it makes cities more livable to have fewer cars.

And: there's nothing radical about it. We've got free parking frickin' everywhere even though cities' costs to provide clean well-paved asphalt are far from free.

“Empires fall and drag their brands of civilization down with them"

in light of the news today of pawoo.net being acquired by the “web3” ghouls behind mstdn.jp and mastodon.cloud i would like to share fhe following:

“acquisition” of mastodon instances is, in my opinion, antithetical to the foundational basis of decentralised and federated social networks. Far from normal acquisitions where there’s at least “intellectual property” and proprietary software, acquiring an instance running on open-source software can only mean that the users themselves were sold.

"oh but what if they get hurt"
yeah sure, what if, right? what if you choke on your dinner or fall down the stairs on your way to a doctor's appointment? fuck you

I just saw someone claim that Elon musk is the most divorced man of all time, and while I agree he's probably in the top five, I feel like you really can't take that title away from Henry VIII

Newly-minted socialists would REALLY do well to acquaint themselves with the history of fascists using antisemitism with pseudo-socialist characteristics to peel people off left movements.

It's a pretty core trait of Euro/US fascism, and the popular left keeps falling for it.

mh? silly 

i get my news from the only reliable source: auditory hallucinations

It is just so incredibly telling that there is so much "uwu poor bby who needs help and community" concern about racists' mental health and so little for the mental health impacts of racist aggression on Black, Indigenous, and other users. Like, tell me you don't think BIPOC are fully human without saying it.
