As someone who's working on starting a diyhrt homebrew and joining the SRA: unless you've lived through the rise of fascism stfu, chances are if you lived here you'd be doin jack shit too.
Fascism/late stage capitalism is exhausting by design. If I didn't spend the past decade removing corporate software from my computers I don't even know how I'd be comfortable doing any of this safely
Proper privacy in today's day in age requires, at least, an understanding of Linux systems administration/, basic network architecture, and virtualization.
That's before we talk about neutralizing ME.
If you're not splitting your identities/footprint across several permanent and burner VM's w/ different public IP's you're probably doing it wrong.
How is that reasonable to expect out of the average person?
You know not everything is online. And it would probably be more efficient if people got odd their phones and did shit in the real world. But maybe america well be the first virtual protest that works.
Yeal well seriously, tomorrow the nazis are marching in my city near me, and I will be there. They want to remigrate my family. I don't need 5 VPNs, i need to leave my phone at home and physically go there.
Sorry friend im not your enemy. But quit thinking of yourself as the main victim when your country's bombing people for breakfast. I spent 3 years comforting my wife as her friends were getting widowed or orphaned. And guess what, harris was still in power. So less voting and more doing, chopchop.
Stay safe
Your medicine you need to live isn't actively being made illegal. The FDA is already being petitioned to make lists of us. There prepping to fucking camp us. This isn't something I need to protest its something Im going to need to live.
Did I say I was?
Read the previous comment and try again.
No, but this holier than thou attitude like you're the only one willing to do something is obnoxious.
Go outside omg. You think you're the victim? Your country bombs people
No you're right. I'm the perpetrator. I asked my awful fucking government run by pedophiles I totally approve of to do that. I totally want that instead of healthcare and basic human rights.
Its almost like if you're not part of a small club of old kiddie fuckers or their direct lackeys, you're getting fucked too.
There isn't 'a victim' of these people. There's fucking hundreds of millions if not billions us, and even more who are dead.
What do you want? Me to uselessly martyr myself so they'll be another "stupid dangerous tranny" on the news for a week for people use against us before forgetting it happened?
What? What more is it you want me to fucking do? Wave my magic american wand that makes my government stop being run by garbage?
Well you're doing something. I wasn't even talking to you in the first place. I was talking to the harris voter
No they just want to send my wife to the place where she almost got killed. The guy I was answering to isn't doing anything, he "voted for harris".
Wow are you from an alternative timeline? Because Harris has never been in power here.
Ah sorry i thought she was the vice-president. My bad
What do you mean by "here". Canada?
