One country has one of the planet's strongest militaries, support from the Global North, a 27x bigger GDP, history of paying people to defend it online, decades of favourable propaganda...

It ain't the ones pulling mates out from under bomb rubble & burning with white phosphorus

@HollyCo26588808 I remember back in the 80s my 80+ yr old grandmother had gotten something similar. Basically just a cat sized furry thing that 'purred' and vibrated.

She was well aware what it was but said she just felt better holding and stroking it...having a 'pet' without having to be responsible for an actual pet.

10,000 Sudanese killed & 5.6M displaced in civil war

10,000 Palestinians killed and 1M displaced in Gaza

1.7M Afghans forcibly deported out of Pakistan

This is unsustainable. This injustice must end. We need leaders committed to compassion and human rights.

Libraries provide more to their communities than books. Lately, Eugene Public Library patrons have been checking out things like cake pans, board games, even a sewing machine. You can even check out a cat from the library. Welcome to Caturday

It wasn't quite fit for yesterday's audience so, I wouldn't worry about it, personally. If we were better equipped we'd first work on the GlutPlug scaling problem to make content delivery more sustainable, before pumping fediverse with more steamy bathwater (people), who will just leak out as fediverse scales.

@zleap kindly serves a copy of a fediverse flyer we made in Feb 2021. Its only dated because it doesn't push #Akkoma but Pleroma, which no longer works in Tor. If our memory is correct #Pleroma slows Tor to a crawl. The flyer is based around the older icon. Is also probably too complex understand in some parts.

“U.S.-provided arms should not be used to massacre civilians, should not be used to result in massive civilian casualties. And that is what we are seeing in #Gaza …. Vice President #KamalaHarris was just saying yesterday that we will not place any conditions whatsoever on our arms to #Israel. And that is unlike any arms transfer decision I’ve ever been a part of” #Khive #Biden #war #Palestine #humanrights #genocide #apartheid https://www.democracynow.org/2023/11/3/josh_paul_resigns_israel_gaza
