OrionKidder, to Palestine
@OrionKidder@mas.to avatar

Liberal political parties, at least in the anglosphere--Liberal party of Canada, US democrats, UK labour--seem really flummoxed by how many young people don't unquestioningly support Israel's violent occupation of Palestine. They're flat footed and don't know how to pivot. It hasn't quite separated into a con/lib issue yet, but that's where we're going.

Meanwhile, Palestinians are suffering while we dither.

Have you used the new Hashtags tab in @ivory yet?

@Klumpmeister Yeah. That thing can be a bit buggy too (like when I type ‘’ and then press the suggestion and it inserts’ poli’ instead of just the hashtag. @ivory

You were right about PoLi. I tried using it for 3 different bookings the other day. All 3 tried to get me to put my internet banking credentials into the PoLi site. No thanks PoLi. Backtracked and used a debit card.

I'm sure I remember it redirecting to my usual internet banking for authorisation, the first time I tried to use it.

Billionaires are a Menace to Society...

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/nov/20/billionaires-great-carbon-divide-planet-climate-crisis?

"Let me put it this way: if you made $10,000 a week – a princely sum by the standards of most people – you would have to work every week from the year of Jesus’s birth until this week to earn over a billion dollars. To earn as much as Elon Musk’s net worth at that rate – currently $180bn, according to Forbes – you’d have to work every week for more than a third of a million years – that is, since before Homo sapiens first emerged in Africa....

... billionaires are a menace to the rest of us: their sheer political size warps our public life. Disproportionately older, white and male, they function as unelected powers, a sort of freelance global aristocracy who are too often trying to reign over the rest of us. Some critics think that the supergiant tech corporations that have spawned so many modern billionaires operate in ways that resemble feudalism more than capitalism, and, certainly, plenty of billionaires operate like the lords of the Earth while campaigning to protect the economic inequality that made them so rich and makes so many others so poor. They use their power in arbitrary, reckless and often environmentally destructive ways."
