  1. CW: CW: Queerphobia, censorship, discrimination

    Berlin loves calling itself the Rainbow Capital. Apparently that rainbow ends at the Steglitz-Zehlendorf district border (I guess it does in other parts as well, but this post is not about that).

    A district councillor from the Christian Democrats cancelled drag story hours at a public library, claiming children needed protection from "polarisation." She also objected to a drag performer's stage name, criticised a press release for mentioning that an invited author is a lesbian, and now reportedly wants library press releases "vetted" before publication.

    Let's call this what it is: censorship wrapped in polite bureaucratic language. Queer visibility is not "polarising." Bigotry is. Libraries exist to broaden horizons, not to erase people because a politician finds them inconvenient.

    The real threats to children are poverty, abuse, neglect and exploitation, not someone reading them a story in fabulous clothes. Diversity isn't something you praise in speeches and ban in practice. If your support for LGBTQIA+ people disappears the moment we become visible, it was never support at all.

    Btw this is a post that I made on Bluesky to share with you all on Mastodon here. To summarize: Keep up the complaints about chatcontrol, real name requirements, age verification, KOSA, Age/ID verification and other shitty laws that are planned to be implemented or have been already implemented. Don't let the backlashes quiet down, warn others and feel free to share my post.

  6. The servers allow a few organizations to control the internet.

    When there is control, there is a possibility of censorship.
    NeuroNodes allows the internet to be distributed from many different points, so it is difficult to control.

    Support NeuroNodes to create a freer internet.

  9. Bluesky keeps suspending Palestinian accounts without warning or explanation.*
    We share our reality, our suffering, and our truth — and they silence us.
    "Even though I've always been extremely cautious and respectful of the rules, this is now the 11th account of mine to be suspended."
    Freedom of expression shouldn’t be a privilege. It’s a right.

  15. This goes absolutely against our constitution!
    This is truly anti-national!
    Stop censoring real journalism in India!
    Media is supposed to hold Government accountable!

  16. Internetzensur 🛑

    In Bayern gibt es keine Zensur – und das soll auch so bleiben! Doch gerade im Internet müssen wir wachsam sein: Staatliche Eingriffe dürfen nicht zu Zensur führen. Dennoch ist das Internet kein rechtsfreier Raum uns soll es auch nicht sein. Ein freies und sicheres Netz bedeutet freie Meinungsäußerung! 💻

  18. Quds | A demonstration by the terrorist group "Hilltop Youth" in occupied Jerusalem, protesting against the events in Al-Funduq village, east of Qalqilya, where an Israeli policeman shot and wounded two settlers, mistaking them for resistance fighters.

  19. According to reports, scenes from around the cities of Jericho and Nablus... the terrorist Israeli occupation forces are tightening pressure on Palestinians in the West Bank and closing barriers in front of them.

  20. Tremors at the Top"… The newspaper "Maariv" reported resignations in the leadership of the Israeli terrorist occupation army, including Chief Herzi Halevi, due to their failure in the "Al-Aqsa Flood" operation.

  21. Mastodon has now bowed to Israel's terror! It is not allowing any videos or recordings that show the truth, as Israel wants to hide the atrocities in Gaza. If a platform becomes part of suppressing the truth, there's no point in staying on it! I am deleting my account!

  22. #Facebook lied to us for years, denying that they were censoring content based on #politics, and now they’re apologizing for it, saying they’re going to fix it.

    But the authoritarian anti-free-speech crowd is having a meltdown over it.

  24. We've been working on a cool project to make our Tor exit relay infrastructure better, and more distributed via anycast. We've been stuck for a while on an issue that we haven't been able to work out just yet.

    When it's fixed, we'll be sure to write an interesting blog post on our network design, and why we think anycast is important for the Tor network.

    Your Revolution - Sarah Jones
    youtu.be/xRgIGMwZd2o?si=Kj-yoI
    From a past #DefPoetry show.

    After airing “Your Revolution,” a #SpokenWord #poem that critiqued #HipHop’s treatment of #women, a #radio station was issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture #NAL by the #FCC, which deemed the #poem #obscene. Jones attempted to sue the FCC which resulted in the removal of the NAL which would have fined the radio station $7,000. However, Jones’ case was dismissed. Yet, another case of #injustice against #BlackWomen who spoke out in public arenas.

  29. Religion is a mental health issue.
    It must be treated with compassion, kindness and love, but it must not be allowed to continue. Education is key.

    #ReligionPoisonsEverything #TaxTheChurch

    The right-wing are trying to stifle education by banning books and texts. Censorship has been a key weapon for religion throughout history.
    Education is key. We must provide free and meaningful education to EVERYONE who wants it.
