You can refuse to provide official ID or biometric data for social media accounts requiring age verification.

Actually, I bet if everyone did refuse, and let their account dormant for a couple of weeks, you would suddenly see American Big Tech transforming into the fiercest defender of your privacy rights, using their powerful network of lobbyists to fight these invasive government regulations.

They need you more than you need them.
Force them to work for your rights.
Do not comply.

Wednesday's Canadian debates on the 2-state solution featured four Israeli politicians but no Palestinians.

Debate chair Rudyard Griffiths said "Israel itself needs to figure out if, when, how, where a Palestinian state could & should exist."

Notably, the Hind Rajab Foundation filed a complaint in Canada against two of the four Israelis for war crimes in Gaza & called for their arrests.

Every absurd story about #Trump not sleeping should be accompanied by an explanation as to why he might not sleep and the biological and cognitive consequences of not sleeping. The man has #dementia.

Last week Trump called Tim Walz the ‘R slur’.

He then doubled down on it, and now his base have begun harassing the entire Walz family.

Memes are circulating on socials encouraging people to drive past their house and yell it at them.

I’ve been personally called that word more than 1,000 times in the last seven days.

We can’t allow this to happen. The disability community has fought far too hard for far too long to remove that word from the public vernacular.

This is ableism at it’s most ugly, and ableism feeds eugenics and eugenics feeds fascism.

Help us fight back. We are not expendable.

Reportedly, the despised Tony Blair has been dropped from prospective membership of Trump's so-called "Board of Peace".

Dropped how far? To the "executive board" functioning under it. Along with Kushner & Witkoff.

Report: Blair's name was dropped from Trump's Board of Peace under pressure from several Arab & Muslim states.

Trump's Gaza "peace plan" appears to have stalled.
