I think we need to organize, mobilize, protest and occupy the streets to get rid of fascists.

Then more activist action when that isn't enough.

I think the time has passed for us to point out their hypocrisy. We've been doing it about #MAGA for 10 years now. They revel in how it annoys us. They think we're cucks.

We know they're irrational. They don't care. They don't think like us. Get. In. The. Streets.

Illinois Democratic Governor J.B. Pritzker revealed during a speech this week that he clashed with President Donald Trump during the first Trump administration after Trump promised necessary medical equipment during the COVID pandemic on the condition that Pritzker praise him publicly.

Wowww

Let's make sure we convert outrage over narcissist hypocrisy into action to get rid of this president.

#25a anybody?

Constant protest?

This was actually the best article so far I have read on the subject.

"..and he needs to create an emergency in order to justify an iron rule...
.. Next up is a swing at the Insurrection Act to put military forces to use against his domestic enemies....

.., put down the “riots” could become his permanent way of ruling through military force instead of by the consent of the governed.

Worth reading!
"...we would have identified Trump much sooner, not as some political clown with no hope of being elected, but rather as a dangerous would-be fascist."

And frankly, we can use tens of millions of Americans to stand up, lift their elbows and stop invasion plans of Canada, Greenland and Panama. He's your facist. You're not stuck with him. Get rid of him before they just start shooting protestors and closing your borders...to you!

Those of you sitting down, condone the fascism.

Time to choose, my babies! We have, already.

The #tesla market cap had been over us$1t for so long, now they can barely keep it at us$800b.

Yesterday it was us$774b

#marketcap = stock price x number of shares

Did you know Peter Mandelson runs a consulting firm that represents Peter Thiel, and that Mandelson took Keith to visit Thiel while he was in the States a couple of weeks ago?
Me neither.
Here's Jo Maugham to tell you about it.

Their operation mode is annihilation. They will be satisfied only when everything and everybody they regard as hostile will be wiped out. Secretly, they dream of annihilation camps. That's why they admire the Nazis.

The Trump regime has already threatened legal actions against businesses w/DEIA policies. Now he's threatening universities that allow "illegal" protests, and threatening to imprison, expel or deport students.

This is another step towards the criminalisation of dissent, and full-on fascism. No doubt inspired by Putin. Whether it will get that far remains to be seen, but it's inching closer.

This reminds me of the same steps from the 90s SciFi series Babylon 5.

This is exemplary. Lucy Welch had a job that came with eyeballs and attention and when events gave her the opportunity she leveraged it to rally support and ruin a fascist’s day. Brave and cool and necessary. Be like Lucy!

I thought there was consensus that #Nazis, & their concentration campus, are bad & they should be forced back into the hole from which they emerged. #Alzheimer's is bad & it requires $$ & research so we don't have to watch those we love disappear. I also thought measles didn't belong in the + column, that banning books was for losers, & the Constitution meant something. We've gone through the looking glass but it's not nearly as fun or interesting as Lewis Carroll said.

So you want to fight fascism and make a difference right now? Do this:

Join Codeberg e.V. – become part of the organisation; part of the resistance – and actively support this valuable and ethical EU-based anti-fascist¹ git hosting alternative that’s under attack by fascists as we speak:

https://join.codeberg.org

Seriously, do it now.²

Volunteer and/or donate if you can.

Let’s send Codeberg’s membership through the roof and show these fucking fascists that when they push we push back twice as hard.

When you do, please add your voice to this thread so others can see.

I rarely ask this but please repost this far and wide.

The registration server might now be getting hit too by fascists.

You can check the status of servers here:

Not to worry, this campaign will continue. And if you notice it’s green, that’s the time to get in and sign up for membership.

A couple of people have already signed up as members (that I’m aware of) in the past half hour or so.

Oh and who’s behind it? The fucking fascists, of course. Because, of course. Fucking fascists.

“Codeberg is currently suffering from hate campaigns due to far-right forces … In the past days, several projects advocating tolerance and equal rights on Codeberg have been subject to hate attacks, such as massive spam of abusive messages in their issue trackers.

We will not be discouraged in our fight against far-right ideologies. They are currently on the rise in many parts of the world, and we believe it is important to protect all kinds of marginalized groups. However, if you believe this does not affect your project, you are wrong. Far-right forces pose a threat to all of us.

Extreme right forces actively target members of our communities and discriminate based on ethnicity and gender, political background, sexual orientation, disabilities, nationality and faith. However diversity is an important asset in free/libre software communities and it is what makes our software great and development productive.

By targetting some of our most active translators, nicest designers, best developers and all other motivated contributors, they are hurting the free/libre software ecosystem as a whole.

Don't be fooled if right-wing forces promise to "promote open source" in their political agenda. This has nothing to do with the values of our movement! This is about national patriotism and protectionism, and they will happily accept splitting our community on their way.

We all know that the free/libre software ecosystem won't work this way. Every human is an integral and equally important part of it, and targetting some of our community members threatens the ecosystem as a whole.

Let's together stay strong and united against the emerging threats. We stay strong against discrimination of all kind, including but not limited to sexism, transphobia, homophobia, racism, antisemitism and ableism. And we hope that you all join us for this mission.

A big shout-out to all the projects that collect facts and resources against hate and discrimination and that have been the primary goal of these attacks. Support them if you can.

If you ever considered supporting the fight against right-wing forces, for example by joining political movements and parties, organizing protests or getting involved in online communities with this goal - now might be the best time to move ahead.

Again, we apologize for the disruption of your work and the abusive content delivered to your mailboxes. We are doing our best to contain the situation.

We'd like to thank everyone who signaled their support in the current situation, via e-mail, Mastodon and in Matrix chats. This means a lot to us.

Thank you for your trust and support!
Your Codeberg Public Relations team”
