I say wait for election day and flip a coin, that's basically how elections are determined, the arbitrary whims of the margin of people in swing states who go out to vote or not. You're individual vote does not make any difference in the absence of mass organized action, and the Democrats are terrified of exactly that kind of mass organization because otherwise they wouldn't be so secure in running corporate puppets like Biden.

If you wanna be realistic about it Voting in any state other than a swing state is basically 'throwing your vote away' : Vote Blue in a Blue State you're just throwing it in a pile, Vote Blue in a Red State it's just as much a symbolic protest vote as anything else. Only in a swing state will your Vote make a tangeable difference which is why those are the only states either party even campaigns in for the most part.
Part of it is due process, but it also means you have the right to not be killed by the actions of the government without being found guilty of a crime.
People who are saying "this is technically correct" forget that The 9nth amendment says this
"The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."
Which is to say, Just because a right isn't explicitly enumerated in the constitution does not mean the people don't retain that right. I would think the right to not have the planet not be destroyed by Fossil Fuel Companies would fall under that, along with clean and and water and all the rest.
it's time for a decentralized unionized taxi app
i don't think whitehouse dot gov is the best source for this lmao
another thing you should never do is look into private trackers
true. I know a lot of people are in similar situations, that's what kept me on facebook for years. I'll just say at this point, twitter could just die any day now, starting DMing people if you haven't already and find another way to say in touch.
Personally I prefer to just not pay for anything exept internet and torrent and stream everything for free, much cheaper, no restrictions
Matrix is hella buggy, Session part of the lokinet weird ancap crypto scheme, XMPP is god tier
Briar, now that's a thingy
I had a conversation with a cryptographer who worked for Wickr he says none of the DoD or other government agents he knew trusted Signal 🤔 - personally I use Signal with my mom or personal friends as like the bottom tier of security, because metadata is a real thing, they don't have to actually know what you're talking about. Just using a phone number itself tells you most everything feds need to know if they're really after you.
if you actually want privacy use XMPP
