The government is asking for public comments on whether banks should be able to deny you from buying legal goods at their own whim (i.e. how they're cracking down on art)
Tell them you don't want to be told how to spend your money

If KOSA passes it will fundamentally change how we are able to interact and use the Internet.
KOSA must not pass.
"Children are being indoctrinated" = "Children know about different options in life and are free to choose for themselves instead of being bigoted people with a blindfold"
USA folk, you need to annoy these assholes as much as you can. this bill is not to protect children. they want to erase transgender people from public life and classify them as degenerate content in the internet. we will not be seen or heard. they want our *existence* to be a sex offense.
•No more art.
•No more expression of one's self.
•No more income from your regulars.
•No more online publishings
•No more community.
Just you handing your information over to a large surveillance network who will find you, arrest you, and possibly kill you.
This is the thought police they want.
You better wake the fuck up now. If we don't make their lives ABSOLUTELY FUCKING MISERABLE, we're going be the ones who get shafted. And HARD.
You best believe that everything about the Internet we know is going to die and everything we know and love with it.
I've made my calls today. You need to.
The package of censorship and surveillance bills brought up in todays markup has been advanced
Continue to contact your representatives and demand this legislation be opposed. Tell your family and friends, explain how these bills are not what they appear, and ask them to join us in opposition!
However, some users may not have to go through either form of age verification. Discord is also rolling out an age inference model that analyzes metadata like the types of games a user plays, their activity on Discord, and behavioral signals like signs of working hours or the amount of time they spend on Discord. "If we have a high confidence that they are an adult, they will not have to go through the other age verification flows," Badalich says.
quick everyone, start playing hentai and super violent games for discord to notice you are an adult lol
time to be loud about this terrible decision.

We’re not new to this, we’re true to this. And as long as KOSA keeps returning we plan to fight it tooth and nail.
But we need your support. Any donation you can make today, no matter how small, goes a long way.

We’ve been speaking out against KOSA since it was introduced in 2022 by Marsha Blackburn, a bigot and outspoken advocate for censoring trans people off the internet in effort to “protect children from the transgender in this culture.” KOSA has ALWAYS been about censorship and suppression.
Gaster vs Imu
This is how a Faerghus child talks to their father, and then how the father talks about them in comparison to Dimitri.
too many people think the nazis were bad only for the death camps and not everything else leading up to that
"Moderator: What do you think of Adolf Hitler? Ashley: I think he was a great leader, to be honest. I think what he was going for was terrible, but I think he showed very strong leadership values. Andrew: I’m in favor of a strong executive. I think we should have a stronger executive branch. I don’t think we should be killing people or doing mass genocide, obviously, but I do think we should have a strong executive. I feel like one of the biggest problems Trump is running into right now is all these little courts, they want to throw up little blockages against everything he’s trying to do, whether it be his tariffs or deporting people. So I’m very pro-strong executive, strong leader, strong man. I support national sovereignty, and Hitler was a nationalist. He was like, we have to take Germany back for Germans. And I feel like we should do that in America. We should take America back for our native population. So, I’m not an expert on Hitler by any means, but as far as nationalism is concerned, I’m all that. Brice: I myself am actually Jewish, ancestrally. I’m Christian by faith, but Jewish by blood. I’ve actually read Mein Kampf. The end conclusions that he came to: absolutely abominable. But I strangely understood where he was coming from as far as wanting to improve the national state of Germany."

Tell me again about how Zohran Mamdani is the big threat to Jewish thriving in the US today.
Please keep contacting your representatives and demand they oppose repealing sec230, and oppose internet censorship/surveillance bills
Get friends and family involved, february is when they are going to make a major push
what the fuck
I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.
Another bill aimed at repealing section 230 has been introduced, this time in the senate
Please continue to advocate for protecting Sec 230 to your reps. We dont know how much support these bills will get yet, but they are obviously trying to push this issue
www.govtrack.us/congress/bil...
We will be fighting tooth and nail to protect the right to organize, the right to have queer community, and the right to access abortion info online in the new year.
If you’re with us, take action now and we’ll reach out when it’s time to escalate: www.whatissection230.org
It has been years of red flag warnings for these lawmakers on why Section 230 is crucial to online speech and resistance, yet they keep coming back with this very bad idea so they can say they’re “fighting big tech”.
SB 3546 isn’t doing that. It’s giving Big Tech the green light to shut us all up.
It is beyond clear what will happen to the Internet with a total repeal of its first amendment: mass censorship of movements for justice and liberation.
Organizers know this, and it’s why we are outraged! www.msn.com/en-us/news/p...
