I reallyyy thought that we moved past the "Republicans and Dems are both the same" discourse after these past 7 years. Like, yes, the Democratic Party is still very shitty (although less so in many ways than they were a decade ago but that's a low bar) but like, we have Republicans sending lawyers to right wing indoctrination classes and forcing children to be taught that slavery was a good thing.

@BlackAzizAnansi yep it's extreme right or center right at best, they are different ;)

@jkerrison @jeffjarvis yep, our #geekproblem has proven to be a "problem" for the last 20 years in tech. Now how do we take the problem out of "geekproblem" as the is much to like about geeks themselves.

We need to stop just using agenda and projects as if they were native they are often not.

In general, they take grassroots/activist native process and then systematize them as friendly, and thus agenda.

We way too often in a lazy way repeat them as "native" and thus shift what is native.

More shit to compost, please don't keep making this mess, thanks.

@witchescauldron there are way too meany people doing this, that it blocks actual grassroots activism. This is a problem in the era of #climatechaos #XR

The #mainstreaming of the #fediverse has dropped the quality and interestingness of content share by a lot over the last few months.

This is a #openweb issue we have not looked at yet.

"You cannot complain about Facebook collecting your life’s history, while at the same time complaining that diaspora* cannot find your former classmates. You cannot complain about WhatsApp collecting your address book, while at the same time stating you do not use eMail because exchanging addresses is too cumbersome. You either get a system that knows who you are or a system that does not."

@strypey this is the #closedweb Vs #openweb debate, that has no debate as they talk past each other.
