Americans like to talk about (or be told about) Democracy but, when put to the test, usually find it...A-Z Quotes
And how many of these billionaire techbros are naturalized citizens, who swore an oath to the Constitution?
This is a major international newspaper talking about how Trump is a Russian agent, cultivated long ago by the KGB. Our intelligence agencies must be twisted up in knots.

Despite the fact that the suspect seems really guilty, at the moment the former KGB agent's statements are not corroborated by other independent sources.

What to know about the rumor Trump was recruited by KGB in 1987
According to a Facebook post from a former Kazakh security official, Trump was given the code name "Krasnov."Amelia Clarke (Snopes.com)
there must have been sufficient evidence there for Biden to have put Trump in Guantanamo for the rest of his life, as a Fully Immune Presidential act, and just published all the evidence there is no doubt in the CIA/NSA/archives already.
I can’t imagine how it must feel to be American these days, unless you’re a full on #NeoTrumpist high on the GOP Kool-aid.

I see growing number of signals about radical people being rapidly and forcibly deplatformed (one could say "cancelled") by mainstream. Here is a prominent case:
meansworkwear.com/blogs/news/w…
James' store was shut down. Social media accounts banned. Payment processors pulled out, banks refused to work with him.
Now, isn't fediverse a place, where such persons could (and should) be welcome? With a little bit of communal knowledge and support we can start finding instances, where those prosecuted by the Trump mafia state could publish in peace, beyond #MuskRats' ability to reach them (at least easily).
These are people the fediverse is invented for, aren't they.
Let's start from listing (or creating) some instances willing and able to help. Any suggestions?
What Happened To Comrade Workwear?
In 2024, following the United Healthcare CEO incident, James released a deck of cards on his store inspired by the “Iraq’s Most Wanted” cards provided to the US Military during the Iraq invasion which depicted “wanted” Iraqi government officials.Means Workwear

I remember a (pre-Facebook) Instagram group running a photo challenge for this kind of shot! I think they called it "Sideways City" or something like that. I spent an hour driving around town looking for hillsides suitable for it.
(Ok, not technically a group so much as one account that posted the weekly theme and everyone used the same hashtag.)
I miss that kind of thing.

📰 Świeża Joan #Westenberg:
"Fediverse to nie przyszłość. To teraźniejszość, której nam odmówiono.
Przez lata internet się kurczył. Nie pod względem rozmiaru, nie pod względem danych, ale pod względem własności. Ogromna, zdecentralizowana sieć osobistych blogów, forów i niezależnych społeczności została zamknięta w kilku utwardzonych więzieniach kontrolowanych przez kilka ogromnych korporacji. Każdy post, każdy "znajomy", każda twórcza praca - zamknięte za zamkniętymi drzwiami, a ty nie masz kluczy."

The Fediverse Isn’t the Future. It’s the Present We’ve Been Denied.
For years, the internet has been shrinking. Not in size, not in data, but in ownership. A vast, decentralized network of personal blogs, forums, and independent communities has been corralled into a handful of paved prison yards controlled by a few m…Joan Westenberg (westenberg.)
