Form a fibre coop with neighbours

Edit, red states may have laws that force you to "choose" which oligarch to pay and prevent personal, coop and/or municipal coops. Because oligarchs need freedom, and Americans need frightened obedience.

How the world can stand up to Trump’s #trade #blackmail

#Trump’s #tariff chaos offers valuable lessons about US & Trump himself

Applying these, countries can undercut Trump’s ability to #bully & #coerce

Lesson 1 is US economy is more fragile than expected

It’s potential for panic makes US economy more vulnerable than others

A second lesson is that Trump’s bombast belies weakness

When tariffs threatened his billionaire friends’ interests, he yielded

@postmodern I think it can introduce potential breakage when you change the code in ways that seem correct, and thus the added convenience is not worth it. But that's just my opinion. OTOH I don't know if <=> does/should support the #coerce protocol 🤔

I think this young voter, from that CNN news piece I posted about, sums things up quite nicely.

Dahlia Saba, University of Wisonsin-Madison: "I think [#Biden] would be met with a lot of backlash [if he came to the campus], a lot of #protest, because his #policies have been -- have #killed tens of thousands of #people."

Saba: "We reject the idea that the #DemocraticParty feels like they have to #coerce people into #voting for them by leveraging the #threat that another candidate is worse."

Doughty’s decision had affected a wide range of govt departments & agencies, & imposed 10 specific #prohibitions on govt ofcls. The appeals court threw out 9 of those & modified the 10th to limit it to efforts to “#coerce or significantly encourage social-media companies to remove, delete, suppress, or reduce, including through altering their #algorithms, posted social-media #content containing #protected free #speech.”

@postmodern TIL #coerce and it's implemented on most of the default #ruby classes [0]:

class One
def coerce(other)
[other, 1]
end
def +(other)
other + 1
end
end

p (2 + One.new)
# => 3

p (One.new + 4)
# => 5

Thanks, @mudge

The US National Labor Relations Board has agreed with charges that #Apple interfered with employees' rights. The tech giant did so through high-level executives' statements, work rules, policies and confidentiality agreements, said the NLRB.

"They reasonably tend to interfere with, #restrain, or #coerce #employees in the exercise of their right to protected concerted activity," NLRB spokesperson Kayla Blado said.
