Billionaires, too. And maybe some chickenshit law firms and universities.
Powerful executives cozied up to Trump. Now they fear a reckoning. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2026/10/26/silicon-valley-courted-trump-now-its-bracing-democratic-congress/

"I have nothing to hide."

False.

You have medical history

You have financial behavior

You have location patterns

You have political views

You have relationship data

Privacy was never about hiding crimes. It was always about owning your life.

The GOP cares only about its own power and wealth transfers to its rich donor base. It has no principles; it serves no one but its own members.

#NewJersey journalist Tom Moran penned this op-ed that appeared in Sunday’s Philly Inquirer. Mr MIA himself #TomKean is trying to smear Dem #RebeccaBennett with a hideous and disingenuous ad campaign à la the one in Ohio, but no one in the NJ media is reporting the facts that refute the claims as Tom Moran did here.

This op-ed deserves play in North Jersey where the House race is taking place. Share with #NJ07 friends!

See what Trump has accomplished since—

namely making $1.4 billion off crypto last year, while buyers are down an estimated $4.8 billion.

For Brazilians looking for an out from Meta social networks, you can have Brazil centered mastodon instances. I could find 1 instance on https://joinmastodon.org/servers that was on open registration:
https://organica.social/

Otherwise, with filtered registration:
- https://mastodon.com.br
- https://ursal.zone

It doesn't even stop at mastodon, there is pixelfed for photo centric content, loops video for the more tiktok vibe, bandwagon for music artists, etc.

Apart from that, welcome to the fediverse!

Wow. It was WOMEN who gave Lula his victory.

Men seem to prefer fascism by quite a lot 🤔

"President Lula’s victory over far-right, Trump-aligned Flávio Bolsonaro shouldn’t just be celebrated by left-leaning Brazilians. It’s a win for democracy, the environment, and the rule of law that will reverberate globally. It’s also an important defeat for global villains: the Trump administration, the far-right movement, and Zuckerberg. And it provides something of a roadmap for those trying to fight authoritarians around the world."

@RealJournalism democracies absolutely need to get "social" media under control (esp. Facebook) or it will be the other way around

Mozilla: Remember those older memes? Don’t they remind you of how things were before the web went to shit?

People: From back when you made a browser?

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump have lost surprise elections thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.

Remember when we were warning you about Bluesky targeting adult creators? Well, they're back at it.

Now they're blocking profile links to OF and other adult fan sites.

Thank you Grand Rapids!

When we send Abdul El-Sayed to the U.S. Senate, we are going to send a profound message:

NO to hatred, bigotry and diviseness
NO to oligarchy
NO to authoritarianism

Let’s get it done.

In politics, people commonly refer to supporting the "lesser of two evils."

I believe most Democratic nominees are actually good, not merely "lesser evils."

Nonetheless, the phrase highlights an important truth.

Unpaid internships are how the wealthy filter out people.

Only the children of The Moneyed can afford to accept these no-wage and low-wage jobs.

Barriers to entry to elite jobs take many forms.

Preserving certain jobs for white or male candidates by creating gauntlets & hurdles.

High tuition. High borrowing costs for student loans. Long days. Unpaid overtime. BS like "culture fitness". Burdening particular candidates with nonpromotable tasks. Unnecessary certifications.

This is fucking insane.

It reads like a bad spy novel. The corruption is almost cartoonish at this point.

When I was a kid I seriously thought that alt right politics was just a joke and people where just trolling

Turns out, people are actually that stupid

The US lost around 3,000 lives on Sept 11, 2001, and since then US voters have persistently allowed themselves to be swayed at the polls by racist and islamophobic garbage thrown by politicians. A virus killed over a million, and people raw dog the air and don’t get vaccinated. Twenty years of war killed more Americans than 9/11, but we’re back at it. Gun violence by white people in 1 year kills more.

Americans are idiots.

Brazilians prevailed against Meta psy-ops and chose not to become a US vassal state.

They showed the world it is possible to beat these criminals. Next Israel. Then the US itself.

#WeThePeople strike back!

Bolsonaro's loss is not just a loss for Bolsonaro.
It's a loss for Trump.
For Musk.
For Milei.
For Netanyahu.
For Farage.
For Meta and Zuckerberg.
For the meat barons, the fossil fuel corporations, and the rest of the neocolonial looters.
And it is a massive win for humanity and the living planet.
