Tired of blaming each other for why we can’t have nice* things In 2026 we lay blame at the feet of our true enemy: our overwhelmingly white supremacist billionaire overlords & the genocide machine they run (*queer, diverse, intelligent, kinky, original, horny, human-created)

RT @jailedamanda: Do kids today know about Lawrence v Texas. Do they know anal sex was criminalized in much of the US until 2003.

There was that one study (university of Alabama, maybe?) about how common torture is in G and PG movies that got mocked as a ridiculous waste of research funds, but they almost all do it post 9/11.

One thing they don't tell you about the β€œpush a button for a million dollars but someone you don't know dΔ±Δ—s” hypothetical is that literally every billionaire is effectively pressing that button as much as they can all the time just because that's how exploitation works

You will have to hand over your ID to data-harvesting companies to access significant parts of the internet, and there's no guarantee your ID will be safe and secure. But sure, accuse everyone of being a kiddy fiddler, because that shortcuts making a good political argument πŸ‘

here's what will happen. - u16 ban passes, platforms must verify all ages - kids use VPNs, government bans VPNs - age verification infrastructure already exists, its scope gets broader, more invasive, more extreme - Online Safety Act forces backdoors into encrypted messaging, E2E encryption dies, gov can read everything you ever send - CBDC rolls out, your internet passport and financial passport become the same document - anonymous accounts posting "wrongthink" are now identifiable prosecutable - the generation that grows up with this doesn't remember it being any other way - George Orwell was right about everything - it's over

anonymous accounts demanding we end anonymous internet is a special kind of irony enforcing an age-restricted internet ban means they must verify ALL user's age. their age estimation plan will not work, it only ends in one outcome: a complete surveillance infrastructure. it's a honeypot. in Keir Starmer's hands. kids doomscrolling is a real concern, however the solution isn't handing Starmer a national social-media linked ID database - the cure is significantly more dangerous than the disease and there are better alternatives that don't infringe on our rights i want less state control in my life, not more privacy is a fundamental human right and it is being stripped from us little by little. i miss when crypto twitter used to be libertarian

oh YES. Since the 1980s, Xerox and Canon made a secret deal with the US Secret Service. every color laser printer now embeds invisible yellow dots on every single page it produces. too small to see with the naked eye. they repeat up to 150 times per page so they survive cropping, damage, even shredding. the dots encode: β€” your printer's serial number β€” the exact date and time of printing β€” the manufacturer no law requires manufacturers to tell you this. most printer manuals don't mention it. you almost certainly didn't know. The first use case was counterfeiting. catching people printing fake money. reasonable. Then, in 2017, Reality Winner printed a classified NSA document and mailed it to journalists. investigators cross-referenced the yellow dots with security footage. she was identified, arrested, and sentenced to 5 years. because there is no law regulating who can request this information. no warrant requirement. no oversight. the EFF has been saying this since 2004 and nothing has changed. you can check if your printer does this. the EFF maintains a list: eff.org/pages/list-printers-…
Did you know that your printer tracks you?

Always good to remember the biggest institutionβ›ͺ️of emotional & sexual abuse & anti-human rights efforts is the one leading the global fight to convince you the arts, cartoons, games & books are what REALLY cause evil & deviant behavior so do with that information what you willπŸ˜€

I think you could argue that only a fascist could become a trillionaire considering the absolute evil required to gain that kind of wealth
The world's first Trillionaire being a Nazi Saluting-Apartheid Enjoying-⬜️Supremacist sure doesn't make a good case for allowing trillionaires to exist

As someone who had read stories on nifty, the way fandomgoers (especially of animated series) clutch their pearls about clearly labeled incest/CSA/SA stories in fandom is a little funny. Fandom’s average β€˜depraved’ fic has nothing on mainstream nifty content

Instead of discussing how Elon Musk is now the world's first trillionaire, we should talk about how he killed hundreds of thousands of people through his dismantling of food and medical aid to poor countries currentaffairs.org/news/how-…

Nah the puritans were right all along, we should just pretend rape, CSA & incest don’t happen. Nobody should write about it, talk about it, or acknowledge it, ESPECIALLY in fiction. That will really help victims feel safe for sure

Repressing abuse & pretending kinky sex are exactly the same as abuse always makes everything so much safer for everyone
