Here it is as I mentioned in a previous post. #resist #fascism #datahoarder #digitalpreservation #archive
Important public information is being systematically removed from government websites by the US fascist administration.
Much of this essential data is sourced from sites like sciop.net/datasets/.
I've been contributing by running a torrent server, but its existing tired hard drives are dropping like flies. I have the benefit of free solar power and a free server with unmetered bandwidth, but without new storage, this vital preservation work will halt.
Every donation will help me acquire "renewed" datacenter grade 12TB or 14TB hard drives, allowing me to continue my efforts to archive and protect public information for future generations. Currently, renewed Western Digital 14TB drives are about $160 ea, and the server can hold 8 of them. The GoFundMe goal is $1356 because that would fill the entire server with 112TB of storage.

"This [threat] leads to widespread self-censorship and anticipatory obedience, where scholars avoid controversial topics to protect themselves.
Over time, these pressures contribute to cultural shifts within academia, fostering conformity and silence. Younger scholars, shaped by these norms, may internalize authoritarian values, further weakening the potential for future dissent and critical inquiry."

Marine Le Pen's far-right French party rebuffed an offer of support from the U.S. that came after a court barred her from running for office. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/06/25/world/politics/le-pen-far-right-french-us-support/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #marinelepen #france #us #donaldtrump #republicans

Historically, when Americans suddenly care about women's rights in a Middle Eastern country, those women are about to get bombed.

very strange reading americans tweet how iranian women can’t go to school and need to be liberated. iran has 98.9% female literacy. 70% of STEM grads are women, highest in the world. oh, and without student debt. classic weaponizing feminism to justify bombs.

Just a reminder that the #West destroyed #Iran ’s #progressive #democracy in 1953, deposing a leader beloved of the people, & installed a #dictatorship in his place.
The #US & #UK have been terrorizing that country for as long as any of us have been alive.
It’s sick.

#Stalin gave people #healthcare. #Liberals have been promising to give us healthcare since #FDR & have failed to deliver on that promise for 9 decades.
And when you dare get mad at them about this & bring this up, there's always some excuse why it can't ever be done.
Why am I supposed to believe after nearly a century that #Democrats will EVER follow through on this promise?

#Israel is the spear-tip of #Western #imperialism in the region, & #Netanyahu is now openly calling for #assassination & #regimechange in Iran. They want to destroy the country to extend their hegemony.
These people are murderous monsters, all of them.

I cannot emphasize this enough, an #Israel / #Western #regimechange operation against #Iran would lead to hundreds of thousands of deaths.
We have seen this play out before, several times in the past decades.
Anyone who tries to justify this madness will have blood on their hands.

Remember those three American professors (Shore, Snyder and Stanley) studying history and fascism, who left the #US for Canada?
A short video by them, absolutely worth watching:
