"stop the infighting!" as we literally burn the planet to the ground for shitty AI, technofascists steal ALL our data, they use AI and data centers to power the fascist surveillance state, and power the Israeli genocide.

I'm sorry comrade, but fuuuuuuuucckkkkk ai.

I've tried RSS on and off for 25 years. I just never found a way to use it that isn't completely clunky. 🤷‍♀️

Truly an unpopular opinion.

Fuck AI and everybody using it

What do you mean? I'm an active member in DSA for years now. I'm active in rapid response groups. I'm fighting against Proud Boys and ICE. I make and distribute whistle kits. I'm part of the Community Defense working group and I help marshal events, and add security. I make maps and voter lists for our electoral working group to canvass. I march with striking workers and provide labor support. I provide child care so people can attend events like chapter meetings without worrying about their kids. I'm active in our campaigns against datacenters and flock cameras; I've gone to many many board meetings and town halls to voice these concerns and get the communities active. Similar with our BDS campaign. I've personally gotten many people signed up and active.

What have you done lately?

Considering the USSR by and large killed more Nazis than anybody, I'd say a shitload of community organizing stopped them.

Show up alone, you get arrested. Show up with 100 people, you get shot. Show up with 100,000 people, now we have a movement. Will your neighbors show up with you? Or will you face the Nazis alone?

I’m not

you might want to start, instead of armchair arguing against DSA...

We outnumber them hella more than that. The question is, have you been organizing in your community?

Almost done with Empire of the Damned

How are you organizing your community?

Who gets to determine if they're unnecessary updates?

EDIT/Update: 'Lake America' is currently under discussion from our Geopolitical Policy Board.

external sources like Yelp, Trip Advisor, Localeze, FB

unlikely that all of them would still be out-of-sync with upstream

It's not like we all have one live server that ingests source changes and the customers will see it immediately. There is a massively delay, release schedules, etc.

Sure looks to me like Google made the change before the basemaps were updated

But yea, you could be right on this specific point
