Laughs.
They used to call this paper the Red Star, once upon a time. Now they post real-estate and car advertising as articles.
I will not shed a tear when local newspapers shut down forever.
I didn't boost that last toot because I agreed with it; I boosted it and bookmarked it because it's a posterboy example of what's completely bonkers about sociopolitical theorists, particularly the perpetually angry theorist that needs to find a punching person.
If there's no real greivance, they'll make one up--also true of the who part; strawmen are essential.
What I miss most in many theories about the "value of data" is a clear statement on who creates that value. This is extremely relevant because this "who" is also the revolutionary subject.

I have absolutely nothing against sex work. None at all. If that is your thing, please do that thing and be happy.
I do not, however, appreciate it being boosted into my feeds, or being spammed by it, or unrelentingly followed by bot, onlyfan, or sex cam accounts.
I AM NOT INTERESTED.

'Chilling preview': Ex-FBI official warns MAGA threats against judges are just the start
The Colorado Supreme Court justices who ruled to bump former President Donald Trump from the ballot have already been inundated with violent threats that include the warning “this ends when we kill these f---ers,” and that could spell trouble for the entire nation, a former FBI official warns.
