Sinngemäß auf der Vogelseite gesehen:

"Wenn du als einzige mit Maske im Supermarkt stehst, wird dir klar, dass wir so nicht Covid, Klimakollaps, Biodiversitätsverlust und Energiekriese unter Kontrolle bekommen.

Nicht mit diesen Menschen."

I don't wanna burst anyone's bubble but having actually been to Europe they have a lot of the same problems America does.

"Go google it" is horrible advice in an era where search engines' top results are those who game the algorithm the most, and Google tailors different search results to every user.

So if a clueless person searches about topics like transphobia or racism, they might actually find transphobic or racist results, and in the end your "educate yourself, don't bother me" approach actually made it WORSE.

Exemple of a shit claim :

https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/china-s-emissions-now-exceed-all-the-developed-world-s-combined-1.1599997

Is it China who's exceeding the emissions or the private (western) companies that produce their stuff in China before selling it in the "West"?

And we're not even talking about ressources use here.

Because the other problem here is that not everyone will be able to get an electric car so guess who will get them? The people in the West. And just that fact show how we create things that are inherently unequal from the start.
We know we won't have enough for everybody, we know it's not sustainable, we know it's not solving any problem we have in jammed cities, but still, we are doing it... Why? Because profits, and feel good sentiment.

all the "good" the e.u. does for "its citizens" explicitly comes at the expense of the rest of the planet, it's by design & not an accident you can fix with better laws or whatever the fuck. same goes for britain & its anglo colonial spawn

if the town is full of open nazis, gay people will be afraid to hold hands. if gay people can hold hands, nazis will feel afraid to wear swastikas.

this is because the swastikas advocate for the murder of gay people. you can't have both, they're mutually exclusive. either the gays are afraid to gay, or the nazis afraid to nazi.

nazis should feel afraid to nazi, rejected by the larger community.
someone has to do the rejectioning.
it ain't gonna be the cops.

I think people saw the GNU Image Manipulation Program getting forked and thought it was overblown or something, so let's make this clear: stop saying fucking slurs. Including ones for disabled people. It's not fucking okay even if it's the fucking name of a piece of software, and that piece of software needs to change its name or the project needs to actively oppose that form.

For the love of fucking Christ, do you people not have respect for anyone but yourselves?

Serious #feditips for queer, trans, jewish, POC, or anti-fascist users

The fediverse has quite a few "ironic" and unironic nazi instances that are also quite racist, anti-semitic, sexist, and generally vitriolic

For most mastodon instances, this is not an issue if your admin keeps up with instance blocks to avoid federating to these instances.

However..... Enter the flagship instances, which haven't done instance blocks in a very long time. When you post to mastodon.social or mastodon.online, your posts may make it to those instances, which means if you use your legal name, real picture, or post selfies of you or generally identifying information, you could put yourself at risk just by being on the "main" instances. Worse, you won't know this is happening until they reply to you.

So be mindful about what you post. Try to approach fedi as if the bad folks could see everything you post. Consider using a different instance that stays active with blocking. Remember that fedi is a network with both the good and the bad and treat your public presence accordingly.

This whole thread is cursed oh my god

Schuld an der Umweltkrise trägt nicht die Menschheit, sondern eine Minderheit, als erstes Nordamerikaner und Europäer. Die reichsten 20 % sind die schlimmsten Sünder, 1/5 der Welt pflegt die verschwenderische Lebensweise, die sich im Bürgertum entwickelte.

Man kann nicht die, die Frauen und Kinder an der Grenze zw. der #Ukraine und #Polen retten, "Held*innen" nennen, aber die, die Schiffbrüchige im #Med retten, als "Seetaxis" verunglimpfen.

Alle Kriege sind gleich. #Refugees sind alle gleich.

Non è possibile appellare "eroi" chi porta in salvo donne e bambini al confine tra #Ucraina e #Polonia ma chiamare "taxi del mare"coloro che soccorrono naufraghi nel Mediterraneo.

Le guerre sono tutte uguali. I profughi sono tutti uguali
