That is the #farright bias in big tech. They cater for #neoliberal and #conservative twats. They happy to ban and enforce safety when it is a #leftwing discourse.
Fuck this shitty platform.

Six ruling and opposition parties have agreed to explore the possibility of scrapping the provisional gasoline tax surcharge by the end of this year, the tax chief of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party said. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/30/japan/japan-parties-gasoline-tax-talks/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #taxes #ldp #cdp

A fuel tax is essential for #ClimateAction. The new PM is showing her #Thacherism with the application of debunked #NeoLiberal economics and favouring #Corporate #Grifters whihc does nothing for the overall good of Japanese society.
The U.S. Just Spent Millions to Overthrow Bolivia to Extract Lithium and Install Neoliberal President
Bolivia’s 2025 election wasn’t decided by voters — it was decided decades ago in boardrooms, embassy back channels, and IMF conference rooms…

Why Fail Safe Matters Now
Full film Fail Safe (1964) is a cultural mirror, from another age, that helps us think about the next ten years of mess. With technical systems out of human control. The film’s malfunctioning machines map directly onto today’s algorithmic governance (#dotcons, #AI, automated warfare). Once the chain starts, humans can’t pull back.
Leadership under impossible pressure. Henry Fonda’s president embodies the loneliness of decision-making when systems collapse. Compare that to our current […]

How did the #Fediverse become what it is today? Have you ever wondered?
@rwg recently published a book chronicling and analyzing the fediverse, and he'll come and tell us all about it, this Thursday for an hour.
Join us for this free FediForum online event. https://fediforum.org/news/2025-09-04-robert-gehl-move-slowly-and-build-bridges-special-event/
It was an Elon Musk experiment, to fund various rust projects to present themselves as minor alternatives to corporate social media. He modeled the network to be bound by no rules, be 100% privately owned, where the owner's domain is absolute dictatorship and control of all communication. No public space, 100% private.
So the free federation of dictators came to be with #mastodon the most prevalent of all dictatorial federations
Ultimate #Neoliberal Experiment

A small history – Russia
The story of the 1990s in #Russia is not just a local tragedy. It is the cornerstone of the modern #deathcult order. December 25th, 1991. The Soviet flag lowered for the last time. The West declared victory. The Cold War was over. “Democracy” had won.
But for millions of Russians, that night was not liberation. It was the start of collapse. The USSR’s vertical system had provided stability: guaranteed jobs, cheap housing, free healthcare. When it fell, all of it was ripped away in the […]

Pushing the #deathcult: “Respect for the rule of law is a must for all EU funding”
The intended consequence of that EU budget framing is to sound like “law, rights, stability” - but the (un)intended (and very real) consequence is to strangle the roots of protest, dissent, and grassroots organising we need to move way from the current mess. Here’s why it’s a problem for protest, which is the foundation of any meaningful liberal democracy path:
Rule of law vs. rule of order: These budget “safeguards” don’t distinguish between authoritarian crackdowns and […]
Second, #poverty alleviation has not been steady. In the 1990's the poverty rate increased dramatically, during the period when #neoliberal structural adjustment programmes were imposed on many developing countries.

Individualism vs Commons: Why the Fediverse matters, and the Indieweb is legacy
The continuing, talking to legacy alt media people, sparks off clarification. The current conversation comes from the #indieweb, rooted in individualism, the digital mirror of the lone artisan, the self-sufficient homesteader, the coder as sovereign subject. This is not a critique in itself – individualism is a core driver of creativity and experimentation. But taken as the centre of gravity, it is a politics that naturally aligns with capitalism. Each person builds their site, their stack, […]
