  2. Chris Mathias has a detailed article up about Marshall Rawson, the Republican candidate for the Florida House of Representatives seat in (iirc) district 10. Rawson is expected to win that seat because it's a solidly Republican district.

    Rawson attended the Unite the Right rally (UTR) in Charlottesville, VA, in 2017 as an active member of League of the South (LOTS), an extreme racist, antisemitic, secessionist, pro-Confederace org that has since been sued more or less out of existence because of its role in organizing UTR. Rawson claims to have left LOTS ten years ago, but was a speaker at a conference of theirs in 2021 and received lots of support from LOTS members and assorted other neo-nazi and neo-fascist actors during his primary campaign.

    Over the years, Rawson has used his social media accounts to advocate for capital punishment for gay men, defend slavery, and endorse lynching.

    Needless to say, neither the state nor the national GOP orgs have stepped up to criticize or denounce their candidate.

    Very sad to see this sort of thing happening in 2026.

    Reminds me of Hitler's anti-LGBT stance in the run-up to WW2, and of Stonewall in the US in 1969.

  15. "The Official Council of #Swedish #Jewish Communities has renewed its warnings regarding persistent #antisemitism within the #LeftParty ( #Vänsterpartiet), following a fresh wave of expulsions involving local #candidates.

    The renewed scrutiny comes after the Left Party removed eight additional candidates from its #electoral lists.

    According to reporting by #Expressen and regional media outlets, the candidates faced disciplinary action after internal investigations and journalistic exposés revealed they had shared #antisemitic #conspiracytheories, praised #Russian #President #VladimirPutin, and expressed support for #Hamas.

    According to public broadcasts by #SverigesRadio, these latest removals bring the total number of candidates ousted from the party over #antisemitism, #Holocaust denial, support for #terrorism, #homophobia, and praise for authoritarian regimes to 33."

  16. For several years in the midst of the Gay Nineties, our men's group enjoyed terrific Sunday brunches at the Elks' Club (Now the Mountain View Country Club) in Boalsburg. We were always treated pleasantly there, a happy change from venues such as the Autoport or the Allen Street Grill that weren't then as amenable to gay organizations. #gay #homosexual #gayrights #civilrights #equality #equalrights #sexism #racism #homophobia #xenophobia #bigotry #bigotryiswrong #scotusiscorrupt

    Some instances are run by bad people. Hell, a few projects like Lemmy and Matrix are DEVELOPED by assholes, but the FLOSS and federated nature of these platforms allows us to bypass/fork them and create healthy spaces outside their reach.

    Nope, that is actually what is killing the fediverse. I just explained here:

    The issue is the divergence in semantic interpretation that emerges at the interpretation layer. ActivityPub standardizes message delivery and defines common activity types. However, it leaves extension semantics and application-layer policy decisions to individual implementations. Servers may introduce custom JSON-LD namespaces and enforce local behaviors, such as reply restrictions, while remaining protocol-compliant. But, the noise created by divergences are problematic, because it creates unexpected, unintended, and unpredictable behavior.

    Divergence appears when implementations rely on non-normative metadata and assume reciprocal handling to preserve a consistent user experience. Behavioral alignment then varies. Syntactic exchange succeeds, but behavioral consistency is not guaranteed. Though instances continue to federate at the transport level, policy semantics and processing logic differ across deployments. Those differences produce inconsistent experiences and results between implementations.

    That leads to fragmentation, specifically semantic or behavioral fragmentation and an inconsistent user experiences. ActivityPub ensures syntactic interoperability, but semantic interoperability (everyone interprets and enforces rules the same way) varies. This creates a system that is federated at the transport level yet fragmented in behavior and expectations across implementations. It is funny how the thing that the fediverse touted has made the entire thing very brittle. ActivityPub technically federates correctly, but semantically falls apart once servers start adding their own behavioral rules.

    FYI, I’m not doing culture wars or political debates. I’m just saying this idea of “forking away” from them is literally breaking the fediverse’s distributed network and creating all kinds of issues with semantic interoperability. Yes, federation is still happening at the delivery level, but the semantic issues are out of fucking control. You are a federation by the very sheer skin of your teeth.

    The reason why developers are leaving the fediverse is because you folks don’t take criticism. You respond to criticism with — I’m being so serious right now — political manifestos and harassing developers. ActivityPub developers and authors oversold you folks on the capabilities of ActivityStreams. They flat-out lied to y’all.
