To Kill A War Machine was made by Rainbow Collective in collaboration with the direct action group Palestine Action.

It was scheduled for release in August 2025, but due to the authoritarianism of the UK 'Labour' government screening it can probably get you arrested. #FuckStarmer

That's why it's important that this documentary is made available in other ways, such as here on the #Fediverse

I oppose genocide.
I support Palestine Action!

Oh, my goodness. I boosted @Em0nM4stodon’s post about this earlier. But I need to share it with some intention.

This piece she wrote on Mastodon privacy/security is intense. It’s long. SO much information. Read it anyway. Seriously.

And if y’all don’t follow Em, do yourself a solid and get on that. She’s smart af about InfoSec/privacy/security. And super friendly.

I've just finished reading Technofeudalism by Yanis Varoufakis. If he's right, then it's politically urgent to escape from the clutches of Meta, Google, Amazon and the like as soon as possible.

Varoufakis' arguments reminded me of Chokepoint Capitalism by Rebecca Giblin and @pluralistic, though according to Varoufakis the dominance of Amazon and the like have killed off capitalism and are a form of feudalism. I still want to compare these two analyses more carefully.

But Varoufakis' argument is: these platforms have managed to lure people in to work for them for free, and with every post and update on their platforms, these exploitative and massively dangerous companies grow stronger and harder to defeat. On the other hand, if the people take back social media and the internet more generally, there's a real opportunity for building a counter-movement with these technologies.

The lesson I take from this: getting people to quit the capitalist platforms and join the #Fediverse is part of political organisation, and possibly an important part if you consider the way people are tethered to their Instagram and Tiktok.

Let me repeat this: Convincing and helping comrades to quit the capitalist platforms and join the Fediverse is an important form of revolutionary political organisation. ✊

Rebooting the openweb – Hamish...

Did a bit of User Experience testing on some #Mastodon #Fediverse printable materials. (thanks to @davidrevoy for the beautiful images)

So far, it's a 100% fail.

Users can not be linked from printable materials to an installable App which they can sign up to a local instance. i.e. If you run an instance and want to hand out invites at the farmers market, no one will be able to easily navigate the app store, the sign up process. There is context breakage.
