  1. "A damning indictment of the #PrivateEquity industry told through the stories of four American #workers whose lives and communities were upended by the ruinous effects of private equity #takeovers.
    Private equity runs our country, yet few Americans have any idea how ingrained it is in their lives. Private equity controls hospitals, daycare centers, supermarket chains, voting machine manufacturers, local newspapers, nursing home operator and prison service providers."

  3. Hi @freemo, questions about dealing with federation from more commercial entities:

    █Can it be possible to continue as it is now and then opt-in from preferences? To switch on per user each as the main thing to do with federating with BlueSky and Thread.net.
    Perhaps more will come but these 2 for now since they are especially commercial / less like Mastodon.

    An all or nothing switch, started "off" first to continue without being embedded / scraped, and then each user decides to change, not not.

    So before more happens with more commercial versions of Mastodon etc (essentially making for hybrid Fediverse perhaps), I would le want to see if those 2 things were possible?

  4. The ABC’s of Moms for Liberty Summit Speakers: Authoritarianism, Bigotry, Censorship (Disinformation, Extremism…)

    #MomsForLiberty, a group that made its name #opposing #public #health measures in schools and quickly moved on to #censorship and school board #takeovers, has embraced a hard-edged political role on the right wing of the Republican Party.

    Its national “Joyful Warriors” summit later this month features politicians, pundits, and political activists promoting authoritarian attacks on the freedom to read, vicious anti-LGBTQ smears, vaccine disinformation, election denialism and insurrection revisionism, and divisive Christian nationalism.

    Here are some of the people Moms for Liberty is highlighting at its upcoming summit:👇
