we don't need to have money to reward people for their jobs, we can simply just share all the shit we produce and the resources we're currently hoarding and instead let everyone do the job that makes them happy, rather than the job that barely keeps them alive.

we have more than enough of everything to go around, there is no reason to hide all of life behind a paywall.

money is inherently toxic as it introduces inequality by design, and encourages us to manipulate each other to get what we want or at the very least survive

Seriously though. If a standard such as "don't mock austic people" is too high a behavioral standard for you, I don't want to know you.

All sylveon are what they say they are, and that is valid 💜

@mallaidh
so much this.

we are only as strong as we are gentle with eachother, and sharing is caring only if it's properly CW'd.

If a triggering toot is massively boosted, it can make the fediverse toxic for marginalized/hurting people for *days*, which can severely impact their (cough, my, cough) ability to be online at all.

I frequently mute people who use CW text unethically, too.

Put the info behind a wall.
Let me choose.

@pan

coz usually the people willing to put the most work in, even for the most urgent and disastrous political horrors... are multiply marginalised people.

multiply marginalised people are more likely to have ptsd and are at more risk of burnout and have more engagement with activism. AND less avenues of treatment available.

this idea that scaring fence-sitting liberals is worth more than helping seasoned activists work safely.. it's not realistic. people ignoring it aren't gonna help

if you would like me to be able to read urgent things, please CW it so that not only can i read it, i can also responsibly boost it, and like, KEEP reading it if i have to stop

"i'm not CWing this because it's important to actually read it" translates to "i'm not CWing because any time this pops up anywhere in your life, nomatter how much you've read or done about it elsewhere, you should be forced to read it"

do u really think the people who don't open "urgent, USpol" are willing to act?

Apparently some ISPs decided @SDF was "dark web" and blocked it. How long until @tildetown gets the same thing? Your mastodon instance? Netflix?
