📌 Pinned Post

I'm an anarcho-syndicalist non-binary person who uses they/them pronouns, is bisexual, from Bergen, Norway, and whose posts automatically delete after seven days regardless of likes or boosts, because I have autism and say random shit sometimes.

I talk allot about free software, and I use Secureblue, GrapheneOS and Debian as part of my software setup. I also spend a lot of time experimenting with Linux, especially Debian Testing/Sid, GNOME, and KDE.

As an anarcho-syndicalist, I encourage you to check out NSF-IAA, the sole remaining anarcho-syndicalist organization in Norway that has been actively upholding these principles since 1916.

I maintain several pages and resource documents related to left-wing Anarchist reading below.

The top section shows Jeremy Clarkson, with a text above him reading "WINDOWS 10 EOL" (End of Life) and the phrase "OH NO!" He has a concerned expression on his face. Various Windows-related logos surround the top part of the image. In the bottom section, Clarkson's expression shifts to a more neutral one, with a caption reading "ANYWAY." A wide array of Linux distribution logos, such as Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, Tux (the Linux mascot), and others, surround him, symbolizing the multitude of alternative operating systems available after the end of support for Windows 10.

So, uh, apparently the fascists are not done buying up legacy media...

Totally normal that the president appears to be using his power over mergers through the FCC, to place the entire American mainstream media sphere under the control of an ideologically aligned (with fascism) secretive billionaire and his failson.

Americans like to make a lotta jokes about communism and Pravda but Stalin didn't ever have the kinda reach the Elisons are eyeing here.

I’ve always felt a deep resentment toward the wealthy, not just for their excessive privilege, but for how they hoard resources that could ease so much human suffering. It infuriates me that their fortunes grow while people sleep on the streets and struggle to survive another day.

I believe everyone deserves the fundamentals that make life dignified, secure housing, nourishment, healthcare, education, and fair social support. No one should have to beg for what should already belong to all of us.

Well, um, homelessness here in Norway is almost nonexistent today, unlike how it was over a century ago, but that doesn’t change the simple truth, that everyone should have a place to live and access to basic necessities like food.

I literally cannot stress this enough - stop hanging out with fascists. I do not care that you think you're in the media. That does not make it okay. I do not care that you think you're debating them - you, by force of logic, are not going to stop fascism at a fucking university debate attended by 200 people. If you fucking hang out, and work with nazis, BY YOUR OWN CHOOSING, that's fucking sus. And yah, that ALSO FUCKING GOES for our favorite leftist Himbo streamer.

I mean on one hand, the fact that we're rapidly moving towards a literal dictatorship, sorry "competitive authoritarianism" for shitlibs who refuse to use scary words, is bad....

otoh, you've got Ro Khanna out here reminding me why it doesn't matter if the elections are rigged because there's nobody I could vote for anyway.

And still, there are gonna be people asking me next year to "vote for Democrats to stop fascism." Because this is the land of pretend.

@AnarchoNinaWrites “A lot of people are saying maybe we’d like a dictator. I don’t like a dictator. I’m not a dictator. I’m a man with great common sense and a smart person.”

I couldn’t care less about that authoritarian blowhard's opinion! The world would be better off without any rulers pushing their fascist agendas, neither from so-called democrats nor republicans, but no, the US is living under a total shitshow.

Fascists just openly admitting they have designs on deporting every Hispanic person in America now:

When you hear them say "65 million" that's what they mean; it's the number of Hispanic people in America in total, including not only folks who have completed the citizenship process, but also people just straight up born in America who happen to be brown.

  • Gender: Fluid (changes, not fixed)
  • Sexuality: Bisexual (attracted to more than one gender)
  • Neurotype: Autistic (diagnosed, not just self-identified)

Lol, I honestly don't even want to talk about the Epstein case; but the media is being outrageous about this. Again, I cannot stress this enough:

Jeff Epstein really was a rich pedo running a teen sex slave ring for other rich pedos and he was extremely close with some of the most powerful people on Earth, including President Trump.

Those are just the facts. Whatever you want to make of those facts is called "the Opinion Section" but pretending NONE of this is real is damaging your credibility

Boosting is really important on the Fediverse because it makes whatever you boost federate to the entire servers of all your followers. A boosted public post appears on your followers' timelines, but also becomes searchable to everyone on the servers of your followers.

Instead of an algorithm, the Fediverse relies on human beings sharing stuff they find interesting. This process creates a wonderful chain of discovery.
