404 Media@404media.co · 2w agoIn our tests, we found the software running on the camera explicitly detects people, something typically overlooked in discussions around Flock cameras. When it spots a person, it records where they appear in the image and how confident it is in the detection. www.404media.co/hackers-stol...
If there ever was a moment flashing like a giant neon sign, this is the time to get into tabling physical media (zines/posters/stickers/whatever) out in the world. As bleak as things are, I promise you they feel less so when you hand someone a zine and they eagerly run off to read it.

Charlie Kirk was a racist/antisemitic, homophobe/transphobe who spent his life promoting the systematic oppression of people whose identities he didn't approve of. All the libs pearl clutching his death are actively facilitating his ideas and acts.
These people are omnicidal maniacs and should be dealt with accordingly.
this fucking sucks. but please design, print, and distribute anarchist propaganda IRL, it's still the best place to do our thing. we need to make our stuff accessible to ourselves and to everyone else, and we need to do it physically again instead of relying on what can be easily taken away

Hey, just going to make a pitch for "put your fucking phone down" this weekend. Find something you want to do, or some people you want to hang out with, or a book you want to read, or literally anything that isn't social media, and try to spend 48 hours not giving a fuck what's being said on here.
The same should be said for government in general. You can become an enemy of the state at a moment's notice.
Ben Collins@bencollins.bsky.social · last mo.The Milo stuff is the perfect picture of fascism. You think you're protected because you go as big as you can on racism, you spend years harassing the movement's perceived enemies, you even disavow your own sexuality. They'll still throw you in a cage over the tiniest disagreement already forgotten.
It’s almost like all cops are bastards or something
Aura Bogado@aurabogado.bsky.social · last mo.Illinois law says local officials can't help federal agents deport people. So how did so many residents end up on ICE's radar through information shared by local police, sheriffs, and prosecutors? I filed 394 FOIA requests to find out. (An @injusticewatch.org partnership with @theintercept.com!)
This is direct action. This is how you change things. Not by votes, or petitions, not by emailing senators. By going out, and doing it.

“Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.” Frank Herbert, Dune
Just as you cannot see, at pleasure, with your ears and you cannot, at will, hear with your eyes so too you cannot make the state act in the interests of the working people. As an organ in the social body, its purpose is for the repression of self-determination. Rudolf Rocker

Lots of fascistic technologies have extremely useful or productive applications "its actually useful" is not a sufficient defense of anything
This is how all governments have always worked, it is not in any way anomalous. Governments are built upon power being wielded by some people over other people.
