"'Any mention of civil rights, feminism or social reform... are usually classified as ‘social topics’ by our automatic system' and are filtered out.... Meta recommended removing 'key words' so that the text doesn’t appear to encourage activism." We need to dismantle these companies.

An inability to imagine change as a positive, even as potentially positive, has frozen our 100 year Government into universal inaction, as a main policy. Whatever you’re doing now, they want you to keep doing. Doing anything else is to be discouraged, blocked or banned.

Men's complaints today: we are horribly oppressed because a woman translated Homer. Women's complaints: see Heidi Blake's utterly horrific report on the Tate brothers' long campaign of rape, violent physical and psychological abuse, and trafficking of, apparently, hundreds of women.
In the political landscape that Tate helped create, women hold an increasingly precarious position. These days, the far-right podcaster Nick Fuentes will openly say that women should be kept in “breeding gulags,” and the ultra-popular Joe Rogan will host a just-asking-questions discussion about whether the feminist revolution was a huge mistake. Influential Christian leaders are calling to repeal women’s suffrage. A man was elected President after being held liable for sexual assault.

Even in this milieu, Tate’s violent rhetoric stands out. “I saw a woman crossing the road today but I just kept my foot down,” he posted after Trump’s reëlection. “Right of way? You no longer have rights.” His influence is being felt around the world. Last year, a seventeen-year-old boy in New Jersey allegedly drove his car into two teen-age girls, killing them both, after joking on a live stream about women getting raped by Tate. In Britain, a man who had recently watched about ten of Tate’s videos raped his ex-girlfriend and murdered her, her mother, and her sister using a crossbow. British police have warned that Tate’s teachings are radicalizing young men in a “terrifying” manner and declared that violence against women is a national emergency.

The Muslim Sisters of Éire will not be able to provide their much appreciated soup run to folks in need due to the protest and the blocking of O’Connell Street. "This is especially difficult given that we have been running this service outside the GPO for 11 years."
Due to the protest and the blocking of O’Connell Street, we are unfortunately unable to access the GPO tomorrow evening.
We have made every effort to contact the organisers but have not been able to reach a lead contact. We have also spoken with the Gardaí, who currently do not have further information.
With great sadness, we have to cancel tomorrow’s soup run, as we rely on access for our transit van and six cars. This is especially difficult given that we have been running this service outside the GPO for 11 years.
We want to make it clear that we fully support the protest and understand the importance of standing up for change. We are also deeply concerned about the rising fuel costs and the lack of timely action.
We hope that by next week we will have more information or be able to coordinate access so we can continue providing this vital service.
Thank you for your understanding, and we stand with you.
