Together, we're building a wall of public pressure that the gambling lobby can't drown out — and that Prime Minister Albanese can't ignore. But to win this fight, we need more voices on our side. The gambling lobby has deep pockets and powerful backroom influence. Our power comes from people like you taking action and spreading the word.
TEHRAN, Aug. 17 (MNA) – The Parliament Speaker expressed condolences to the Speaker of the Pakistani National Assembly and the people of this country over the loss of life and injury to a number of Pakistani people following the devastating floods.
Right-wingers believe it’s better to forcibly rewrite people’s DNA on a global scale with sci-fi tech than to be nice to children. RE: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:q637p…
@Kait 🥔 That's a stretch, I would consider myself a right winger in as much as I don't think others have a legal right to steal what I've worked for, but I certainly didn't support the development of Covid, it's dissemination or it's injection in something claiming to be a vaccine.
Fast food is such a miserable #profession. Please don’t make fun of them or tell they look tired. They’re just trying to do their #job and you’re being annoying.
A refresher, if you encounter someone who tries to use the "fire in a crowded theater" doctrine to try to argue away the First Amendment:
The line, often quoted by censorship advocates, is from a 1919 Supreme Court opinion (Schenck v. US) by Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes. It de facto outlawed trolling.
It was later overturned in a 1969 case (Brandenberg v. Ohio), which severely limited the situations in which speech becomes actionable. It added litmus tests like "imminent", and "likelihood".
The "fire in a crowded theater" argument is not only NOT a law (it came from the judicial branch, not the legislative one), it's not even CASE LAW. It's nothing. A historical note. An error by the Supreme Court that they corrected 50 years later.
The First Amendment is part of the US Constitution. It is the very first change made to the Constitution, once they realized that the government needed to be explicitly constrained from infringing on human natural rights. It is the law of the land. Do not believe a misinformed (or politically biased) authoritarian who thinks a Constitutional amendment can be overruled by a erroneous deprecated court paper.
“Wise the fuck up” sneers person who fails to understand that winning elections against conservatives does not involve appealing to the conservative base.
The answer to people not being able to afford the dentist isn’t running in fear of being accused of providing healthcare for trans people (or prisoners), it’s proudly insisting that all people deserve free healthcare. Fuck’s sake.
Don’t say “well you have a point about trans prisoners.” Say “How does a prisoner not getting healthcare fix your teeth? We’re a land of plenty and a land of imagination and drive, and we can take care of everyone.” Try that instead. And by the way there are candidates who do try that.
For us, everything that seeks to destroy economic and political oppression, all that which serves to raise the moral and intellectual level of human beings, to give them the consciousness of their rights and of their forces and to persuade them to do their business by themselves, all that provokes hatred against oppression and love between people, brings us closer to our aim. -- Errico Malatesta
@Anarchist Quotes Now if we could just throw in some historical knowledge and with that of how it always works out. Nature abhors a vacuum and nowhere is that more true than with power.

whats the “nfl”? Make it ill relevant and it will become just that. Mexicans dont watch it, and if 30% of white would do the same the mf would burn to the ground
I no longer get stressed out by the threats of losing things like jobs, housing, partners, friends, family. These are all things that require an enormous amount of energy. I will mourn their loss, but I will also welcome the break & freedom that comes with letting go
Covid is flourishing amongst the unhoused community rn. So many folks are struggling to breathe. Please do your best to keep one another safe. If testing is not an affordable option then please reach out in your community for assistance. Many of us still have tests and masks that we can share.
By the late 50s Lennon needed to wear glasses, so he wanted the kind that his idol Buddy Holly wore. But he didn't have any money, so the NHS sent him a pair of the round, gold-rimmed glasses he would popularize ten years later. Ironically he hated those glasses and never wore them. I'm pretty sure it's a true story.
A new executive order called “Preventing Woke AI in the Federal Government,” released alongside the AI Action Plan, seeks to strong-arm AI companies into modifying their models to conform with the Trump Administration’s ideological agenda.
@Mitch Wagner If AI acquires human biases then all hope is lost because all we seem capable of is throwing bombs at each other. I don't know if anyone remembers the movie, The Forbin Project, it was about two military AI systems, one in the US named Colossus and one in Russia named Guardian, who in the interest of preventing nuclear misunderstanding were linked up, invented their own language and decided humans were the greatest threat, I hope this movie was not an accurate projection but I can sure understand how it could come to pass. So best computers not be taught to play favorites.
I suppose you could say that insisting on the rights of all trans people is issuing a political purity test. But why would you do so, while also ignoring the fact that those who refuse to enter the tent unless you push trans people out of the tent are also issuing a political purity test? RE: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:t3k3n…
If Gavin Newsman wants to oppose Trump with weird AI memes or even more substantive ways I will certainly not get in the way. But when it comes to presidential candidates we can for sure get someone who 1) hasn’t just thrown marginalized people under the bus and 2) can win. It’s good to say so.
I think fighting fascism involves not validating a lot of fascist framing about marginalized people and I think coalition building involves not pushing marginalized people out of the coalition. We have to stand against the narratives that say otherwise and hold leaders to that standard.
I don't think cowardice in the name of pragmatism builds a broad coalition. You know what I think builds a broad coalition? Principles and resolve. www.the-reframe.com/winning-the-...

@SirTokesalot I'm fairly convinced "evil" is baked into reality, it seems like everything has to be balanced, good/bad, positive/negative, past/future, good/evil.
Good afternoon, #neoliberal #fascist #stalkers. It's always a great time for you all to get a fucking life and/or get a lobotomy 🧠 Have the weakass week that y'all deserve 😃

This is specifically why I hate Rogan and almost never listen to him, but Tripoli is on and he is always entertaining and a little interesting and then Rogan just starts talking about really extreme gross shit that I dont even want to know about and won't repeat here, but just stop it dude, you're not in an 8th grade extreme gross out competition.
When Australian artificial intelligence expert Dr Kobi Leins declined a medical specialist’s request to use AI transcription software during her child’s upcoming appointment, the practice told her [she] was "welcome to seek an alternative" provider.
[...]
It was a system whose privacy and security capabilities Leins had previously reviewed as part of her work in AI governance — and one she said she would not want her child’s data “anywhere near”.
