🚨 This is happening everywhere you go depending on where you live and your social media presence. Just assume nothing you say, text, look up, or read on your phone is private. Don’t take your phone to a protest without a faraday bag. Use a dumb device to record video. 1/2

I’m not a Catholic and I’m normally against preachers preaching politics, but I’m all for Pope Leo’s stance against fascism.

Jeff Powell @gamesounds.bsky.social · 22h

Sounds to me like a reasonable place to start.

That is why every single one of them that betrayed their oaths must be voted out of office. It is time Americans realize that wanting authoritarianism to help keep white privileged is all a lie. If those who wises this haven’t noticed, they are taking your privileges away and not preserving it.
