Same! Okay, not without problems, because running a mailserver isn't maintenance-free. But Mailu has been generally solid and it works with Docker. (And Podman, unofficially.)

As much as direct action is fun, this is just a lie. Lawsuits have already changed the Trump administration's behaviour. Sure, they are still doing tons of illegal shit to see if they get called on it. But federal judges' rulings have called them on it and even served as effective push back in many cases.
The word "legitimate" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that quote...
Be the change you want to see. In Minecraft.
It's good, but it's centralized. Let's say an authoritarian regime shuts down the central Signal servers. Then what?
Also, those demands are too wide-ranging and open-ended IMO. They need to be more specific and focused.
A big reason for that is people constantly needing to blame Democrats for everything.
Yeah those people blaming Democrats are everywhere... even in your comment!
If you didn't vote for Harris, you're a part of the reason why bad things are happening.
I call bullshit. Because no LLM ever says, "I don't know." It just confidently invents an answer out of thin air.
Only mostly facetious here...
I think I'm the outlier here. I couldn't do it. I tried watching this show and I just felt dumber for having done so. To be clear, I don't need all of my shows to be heavy. I can get behind a well-written comedy. But this one ... isn't.
Look at it this way.. We have a portfolio of tools to fight fascism. Sometimes, yes, the proper response to a specific incursion is direct action. Sometimes you can accomplish more with other means (fighting back in the courts, etc.). It doesn't have to be all or nothing, and in fact I'd argue you accomplish the most by picking your tools wisely for each battle.
Violence isn't the only way to fight fascism. It's surely a way. But the courts and the school districts are two early battle grounds where folks are already pushing back (non-violently) and preventing some of that inching forward.
Get that defeatism out of here. They're only above the law if we let them be. To date, the Trump administration has backed off when a judge rules against them. Sure, they then try to come up with new, illegal shit to do. But the courts definitely still have a place in putting the brakes on it.
