You’re not crazy. The anti-trans movement is not organic; it was funded by pedophilic billionaires like Jeffrey Epstein who backed a network of conservatives to accuse the same people they were sexually abusing of being the real danger. @madycast.com exposes the truth in our in-depth report.

Eine Studie hat dokumentiert, dass Elon Musk auf Twitter/X den Algorithmus manipuliert hat, um die AfD vor der BTW 2025 zu stärken.

Für alle Parteien, Politiker*innen und Institutionen zeigt das noch einmal ganz deutlich, was schon seit langem immer wieder gesagt wird:
A study at U Mass Amherst finds that Elon Musk manipulated Twitter to bolster the voice of the Neo Nazi Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) before the German 2025 parliamentary elections. No surprises here. groups.cs.umass.edu/equate-ml/20...

Statt für Kinder und Jugendliche sollten Social Media besser für Erwachsene verboten werden.

Wenn schon niemand den Mumm hat, gegen die Plattformen vorzugehen.

On my way back home from my very first #FOSDEM. It was such a nice experience! 🤩
So many lovely conversations with amazing people — not only, but obviously a lot about @air.ms, the secure messenger we recently launched as a beta.

These four pictures probably summarize my @fosdem.org best 🤗

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Took advice from @parismarx.com a couple weeks ago and it's been great. Most all changes I've made have zero impact on my day-to-day, but mean I'm supporting a wide diversity of non-US platforms. A couple are even a genuine improvement.

Combat both US tech capitulation and Enshittification at once.
Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies.

For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!
Getting off US tech: a guide
I’m in the process of dropping US tech services. Here’s how I did it, and options you should consider.

So American law enforcement agents kill peaceful mothers and caretakers on the streets. This is insane and needs the awareness and the critical voice of European leaders despite all the geopolitical turmoil.
