The brightest of the bright! We obviously need a #mediarevolution where flat-earthers are not allowed anywhere near a news platform https://www.threads.com/@vogtsrhonda/post/DTdZF7kiRJq

"It is recognizable by its determination to convert all public services to private entrepreneurship; all nonprofit organizations to profit-making ones — so that the narrow but protective chasm between governance and business disappears. It changes citizens into taxpayers — so individuals become angry at even the notion of the public good."
Toni Morrison, 1995

Side note:
In These Times appears to be an antifascist and anticapitalist publication;
Yet as is so often the case - even for such publications - the front page of its website provides free advertising (with logo) to 2 technofascist corporations (FarceBook and Xitter). Can't find any sign of a fediverse presence.
How do we help them understand why this works against their own values and long term interests, and fix it?

It's Media Liberation Day and we’re a part of the Media Revolution!
Introducing Mo-Me… 📲
We've been working with @MediaRevolution to design a Mastodon-powered social app that puts community and connection first. A real action for real change.
Following the Media Revolution ethos, Mo-Me will give its users the chance to meet others who believe in the future of independent media.

We're still catching our breath from Media Liberation Day - and have lots of follow up work, photos, video and posts to share.... but first, the core team at Media Revolution really want to say an absolutely MASSIVE thank you to everyone for the support and for getting on board with the lead up, the events of the day and the overall concept of the campaign.
The foundation feels and looks strong, a diverse community of people and organisations who care deeply about having media that works for people for planet, and who are prepared to work together for that to happen - and it's only just getting started.
@phillycodehound @phillycodehound@indieweb.social Thanks so much for being a brilliant mod and being a revolutionary of the #MediaRevolution 🙏🥰

Hi All,
Here's my #introduction post here on Mo-Me! I'm one of your moderators and have been on the Fediverse in some for or another for since 2016-17.
I'm a former/recovering professional journalist turned digital marketer and podcast host/producer.
I'm across the pod in the Philadelphia-Metro area. So hello 5hrs earlier than you guys in the UK!
I'm mostly active here: @phillycodehound@indieweb.social so follow me here and there to get the full PCH experience! 😝
Happy #MediaRevolutionDay!
@phillycodehound @phillycodehound@indieweb.social Thanks so much for being a brilliant mod and being a revolutionary of the #MediaRevolution 🙏🥰
Just back from a very enjoyable trip to #Hamburg for Free Media Week. Thank you Save Social and @bjoernsta for inviting me to talk about The Bristol Cable and #MediaRevolution

Happy Media Liberation Day! 🎉
(also known as Guy Fawkes Day!)
We're saying #ByeByeMenticide and lighting the Touch Paper - a new media consumer union - incubated by Media Revolution.
*Menticide is brainwashing. In this instance, billionaire media owner brainwashing. Enough is enough. We need to organise, unionise and change the media.
Blow up this message! It’s an epic plot - and you can be involved.
