The worldwide battle against authoritarians continues. Let's check in: Democrats have a plan to protect elections from Trump's attempt to steal them. https://www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/exclusive-democrats-unveil-plan-to-protect-elections-from-trump-ai/ Federal judge indefinitely blocks Trump’s ‘anti-weaponization fund’ https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/judge-indefinitely-blocks-trumps-anti-weaponization-fund-rcna349814 #politics #uspol #democracy #freedom #worldpol

I'm not a fan of bureaucracy. I see the friction, the delays. Sometimes, it feels like an "industry" built to create pointless jobs. Yet, there are moments when regulation is vital. Europe gives us the DMA, the GDPR, and a wave of other rules meant to protect us. Are they imperfect? Absolutely. They often overcomplicate things without giving us a real advantage. But it's something. I don't believe in racing without a finish line. Progress is good, but not "at all costs". Every action has a reaction. We should be aware of it. The EU system tries to safeguard citizens. Other hyper-growth countries take a different path, and the consequences can be brutal. Apparently more liberal, but only apparently. Imagine an American friend being denied health coverage because an AI on their device (or in the "cloud") flagged a text where they mentioned having a "persistent headache". I've recently seen the real-world harm that targeted commercial algorithms can inflict on people in moments of fragility. That’s not the future I want. Yes, Europe needs to accelerate. But it must hold onto its core values. Leaner processes, sure, but zero compromises. Just because my car can top well over 200 km/h doesn't mean I should drive at that speed everywhere, just for the sake of productivity. #Freedom #Regulations #Europe #OwnYourData #OwnYourLife #BeFree

while this is #funny he get's the core problem wrong: it's not people, it's the #finance #system of #evil that does not want your #freedom or #independence quiet the opposite, you need to #teamup make #communities and #liberate yourself from #money in any possible way what all #bank #bankers do not understand: without the #productivity of the #worker #money becomes just what it is: paper #usa you can do better than #civilwar #lol #meme #usa #almostcomedy

#freedom is in danger. We only need to glance at america to know part of what I mean. #Age checks, banning of VPN's, no more side loading of apps on #android, AI screwing us with misinformation and destroying our cognitive abilities (let alone our planet). I'm done playing nice. I'm willing to start actively sabotaging this shit. Are you with me?

Canada has rights and freedoms and free healthcare and gun control that keeps 40,000 people a year from being mowed down by bullets. Canada remains a democracy filled with opportunity and its citizens are welcomed around the world. In other words … Canada is the American dream. #Canada #democracy #rights #freedom #healthcare #america #MAGA #nra #gunviolence #news

Time to switch to the freedom of Linux - people are indeed doing it increasingly. E.g. Steam recently passed 5% for Linux users 🐧 👉 https://youtu.be/uWnM16cpINk #Linux #deleteMicrosoft #Recall #freedom #computing #Microslop

Decentralized doesn't mean immortal, but it means no single off switch. Centralized platforms are one court order or CEO whim away from silence. That fragility is the feature they don't want you to notice. #freedom #technology #politics

Can you imagine Iran from ‘Death to America’ to ‘God bless America’? When Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi asked, “Can you imagine Iran going from ‘Death to America’ to ‘God bless America’?” it was not a throwaway line. #Iran #protests #freedom #RezaPahlavi Source: https://www.christianpost.com/voices/can-you-imagine-iran-death-to-america-to-god-bless-america.html #Faith #ChristianNews #Bible
