This is America.

We would be greatful if you could amplify our voice & let your followers know that the Auschwitz Memorial is present in #fediverse: @auschwitzmuseum

Every day we commemorate the victims & educate about the tragic human history of #Auschwitz.

Auschwitz is a place that shows where hatred, antisemitism and contempt for a fellow man led people decades ago.

It is also a place where we should reflect on our individual and collective responsibility for the world we live in.

Bei freier Software - wie #LibreOffice - geht es nicht darum, dass sie nichts kostet (so schön das auch ist). Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Freiheit, Ihren Computer so zu nutzen, wie Sie es wünschen, und die Kontrolle über Ihre Daten zurückzugewinnen. Wir waren zum Beispiel kürzlich auf dem Software Freedom Day in Delhi:

Hamas does not care for their people. They use them as human shields. Caring for the deaths of Palestinians, Jewish and all Israeli people is NOT TO BE CONFUSED with supporting Hamas. So many Israeli Arabs and Palestinians hate Hamas for their crimes against their own people and their Jewish friends. Stop being ridiculous. Don't support a death cult. Support humans who just want to live a peaceful life. Support families. Support love health education. None of those are the values of Hamas.

As an individual, gender can be a blast. But as a society, gender has no purpose at all, other than to restrict and oppress in one fashion or another. I am misgendered every time I go out in public where people do not know me. I don't care at all, because THEY DONT KNOW ME AND DONT NEED TO KNOW MY GENDER. But they have to guess to address me, and then I have to make them feel better when they get it wrong, then realize when I speak that I am not "male". Meanwhile...

World leaders swiftly express their solidarity when Israeli civilians are killed.

But when Israel calls Palestinians “human animals,” silence. When Israel cuts off fuel, food, water, and medicine, silence. When the bombs fall on Gaza, silence.

Texas paid Wynne Transportation $75 million to facilitate human trafficking of migrants

This means TX paid $12000 per passenger which is over 10x the greyhound cost - aside from the illegality of trafficking

* More than 916,000 Texans have lost their Medicaid coverage since March with more planned removals coming

* Wynne Transportation is owned by a close friend of Greg Abbott

This is huge for #Mastodon and the Fediverse.

NASA scientists are still working through their initial analysis of the samples returned to Earth by OSIRIS-REx from Asteroid Bennu. They've already discovered water and high-carbon materials, which form the raw ingredients for the building blocks of life on Earth. Their goal was to bring home 60 grams of material, but scientists have found bonus asteroid material outside the collector's head, slowing the recovery process. NASA plans to preserve 70% for future analysis.

In the West Bank and Gaza, Palestinians face this type of abuse and far worse, literally every single day for generations, and it's been allowed/encouraged to get evermore hateful.
