SOLUTIONS ARE PEOPLE TOO + People's fear will stop them from taking solutions in front of them because it's safer...
Kind of makes sense like changing computer systems...
but LIFE IS A RISK ANYWAY or can be changed over safely... just not too defensive / stagnant please as it's stopping progress (in ourselves!) ...!
Like the phrase "on a plate" - the solution can be right in front of you but always need a bit of pain of learning or testing... or hand-holding to walk there to the gym or the person's house etc...
OFTEN THE PERSON IS THE SOLUTION!
So over the Fediverse let's chat..., yes maybe more scarier BUT WITH LIFE YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH THAT TOGETHER ANYWAY (if you want life to progress).
SOLUTIONS ARE PEOPLE TOO LIKE ME...
YOU CAN MEASURE AS YOU GO INSTEAD OF THINK IT'S 'ALL IN' NO NEED BEING SCARED OF FAILURE OR KNOWING IT ALL.
LET'S CHAT TO START EH ABOUT #SOLUTIONS? ANYTHING! 😃

Protesting doesn't change the will of your attacked / The Government.... (TO PROTEST OR NOT TO PROTEST...?)
If you block the road yes, to some level that works, but by the 2nd day they are going to overwhelm you / get an earlier head-start / jump you before you get there (if you announce it too much for example).
Not to say all protest is bad or even saying publicly but it lacks the end thoughts... IF THE END IS IMPORTANT TO YOU?
So at the very end... if I'm right (and after seeing the actual result) sometimes aside from "a bit of awareness" not much comes from protest because people didn't care to start with and still don't" - so it's real engagement that is the answer, if you can do that in protest and more lower risk to everyone else.
Protesting basically doesn't change much or changes a little BUT ALSO gives bigger signals to your 'enemy' <==which I don't think is over stating it. They firmly stand against you / all causes.
So you give them more excuse and work to do. More money to spend. Sad but it's deliberately rigged unless you really cut off the beasts arms.
What might help is asking / considering
- do we get ready to go all the way / lock enemy out of responding the next day in order to escalate or are we just gesturing. What does either actual get us as a physical thing at the end (not just whimsical thinking)
- remember your token gestures are worth NEAR-0 unless you really can measure internally something solid and 'break' how people don't care... THEY DIDN'T CARE OVER 20 YEARS SO WHY WOULD THEY NOW? Really I've conversed to the level you're like "they are right - why am I helping those that say I DON'T REALLY WANT HELP are are NOT GOING TO TAKE THE FIGHT AFTER?"
- Need actual change - talking to people personally - else it's just pining for you bullies to give up their power (NEAR-0 CHANCE)
Overall protest can signal to bullies / existing professional enforces / sharks / what they need to stop it happening in future - they are just doing their job... almost just like you...
so for example I suggest you consider subtly chaining their vehicles to stop their mobility or make it harder to move when they go to drive (not seeing the damage before)
It's like stopping or asking someone to stop - big difference AND YOU KNOW THE ANSWER - ASKING OR PROTESTING ONLY GIVES YOUR INTENT AWAY - HIT HARD / NICELY
So I hope this provides some insight with various levels of observation in these theoretical experiences...
If you have some ideas let me know and I'll let you know how for example LESS EXTREME can have more effect (like the annoying / disabling of vehicles rather than obvious smashing loudly that they will fix/replace)

It’s a bittersweet feeling to discover that a book I wanted write has already been written. Elin Kelsey’s book, “Hope Matters” is the latest in a genre of work that advocates new narratives around the challenges we face related to #sustainability #climate #biodiversity #oceans #FreshWater #soil #forests etc. She follows in the footsteps of Susanne Moser, Glenn Albrecht, #TakeTheJump #EarthEmotions and others.
I'm a disabled Indigenous queer person who exists on Jobseeker, which means almost 50% ($269/week) below the poverty line ($489/week).
After living in the same house for almost 10 years, I have to move because the people we rent from want to renovate.
It's going to cost $3990 just to move, not including the new bond and rent for the new place, cleaning costs for the old place, and all the other incidentals.
I hate asking, but please consider helping if you can - I'd be super grateful.
[update - thank you to those who have shared this post, and to those who have supported this. I've been given just over $1500 by you all, and am so grateful.
We've moved (yay!) I've had to borrow the other $2410 as a low interest loan, and anything else given will go towards paying that back)

What a fantastic way to describe gas vs electric for transportation.
“If you grow an acre of corn, it will produce 900 gallons of ethanol, which will get you about 25,000 miles for a Ford F-150 pickup,” says Carson. “Which is, not bad I guess. But let’s say we put solar on that same acre. It will produce enough electricity every year to drive my Lightning 550,000 miles.”
The entire article is here https://billmckibben.substack.com/p/forty-acres-and-a-sense-of-hope
@human3500 not to mention fuel ethanol from corn literally requires more fossil fuel input for farm equipment and fertilizer and whatnot, than the output of fuel you get in the end.
It just exists as a mechanism to absorb government subsidies.

@james@strangeobject.space I know little about this...but as a FreeSchool* I'd like to know a bit more...
FreeSchool = me and extensions to others potentially in person or online that I can cross-pollinate to
So some questions if you don't mind. More about the whole overview and chain of people what you're looking at - is it basically kids looking to change and people literally blocking that by blocking puberty blockers?
And then killing them is literally indirectly through these kinds of repressions / oppressions (and killing means forcing kids to suicide through the lack of help?)
Then moving on from that, about writing to MP.
This is an unpractised art I guess so hard to expect - but to help people see things working it would be good to see...
- a measurement of how many people actually sent stuff....
- and then how many got reply...
... in order to to encourage me or others to even think of writing (it's the belief it works first sometimes - though I do like experimenting without needing "proof first" writing to MP will work).
Most of these kinds of "more-specific things" (taboo to most people let's say) is harder to feel or write about because it's not personal to people (or low chance) and how to have relativity and experience to .....
Some questions if you don't mind. Thanks

@matt Yeah that would have been my question before you added that to first post, basically if you needed to add anything as I assume most OS out of the box doesn't do that or even install mobile via usb properly (so more than one thing but I might assume wrong here?)
I am so sorry for what #Genocide I see AND know happening all the time. So sorry...
Nothing I say can ever apologise enough.
Even "apologising" as a word or using language I know is not exactly right, so I know I need to do many things a better way... which I am slowly.
I believe paying tax (dollars or any tax) mostly goes to help commit genocide or very similar mentality. Money is war on people (selling them debt) and encroaches and closes on people lives like a bulldozer is paid to destroy land and it's people connected to it (their freedoms are connected to the land)...
I AM SO SORRY I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SAY SOMETHING MORE WORTH SAYING SO FOR NOW... I AM REALLY #SORRY TO SEE THIS HAPPENING.
F is for Freedom and #FreeSchool hashtag is what this is about...
All things towards #Freedom (moving from Shorter to Deeper and Caring thoughts)
TOGETHER & MORE OFTEN DIRECTLY (who else is going to do it?).
#FreeSchool profile has #Notes #Quotes (extracts / gems) from great #Books #Videos #Talks #Websites from all around the world towards
#DIY Care (because nobody else is going to as best as you do for those around) - #Caring IS our main #Politics / #Politics and "System" (not a system of cheating each other but caring and what Capitalism is cutting out - this is what we need to put back in and teach to those willing).
#Degrowth / PostGrowth
#WellbeingEconomy #DoughnutEconomics
#CaringEconomy / #CareEconomy / #Partnerism
"Free School" is a term for a movement born from the 1960's / 70's using educational living & learning practice towards #Caring & #DIY with all others (all at the same time - not an after-thought or specialism in 1 field or person who is a #compartmentalised person ignoring others in other fields). Caring to involves more things, increasingly aiming towards everything...
Posts are 1-line #Notes and #Quotes that links all other things (it's all relative).
Long comments use CW to shorten post vertically and add a 'show more' button to reveal more text if you want it. Long posts might seem bad but it's giving chance to more connection and understanding.
All things towards #Freedom (life moving from Shorter to Deeper thought).
Freedom doesn't come from short-depth lifestyles / short lines of text / ignoring / #inaction. Not less communication between lovers of similar things. MORE!)
#FreeSchool = Learning Together 🔁
#FreeSchool = Working Together 🔁 (eventually + I do Free work for Freedom.
#FreeSchool = Co-Operating & #DIY Solutions 🔁

#FreeSchool ➡ Increment Talking + Peacefully solve everything.
TLDR - Inaction = Fascism
Trust comes from "slowly but surely"... Doesn't have to be all-in, but peace doesn't come from one-way short messaging on 'social' Mastodon either - collecting memes and cats only is limited!
Remember we need develop better humans as well as 'develop' code on computers etc.
☮ Peace needs more... even to save all types of cats!
Get in touch - I'm someone that cares for everything because it's all human-related...
Human #chats welcome - I using #Jitsi audio chat which uses JUST browser (ANY PLATFORM + 2minutes to enter !)
(i.e. no-install / no account / no google / instant / privacy-respecting / safe-enough, etc!) Really the best out there - any platform / device! Instant audio chat !
Just ask for a link and prepare a few topics!
#AltText used (when I remember).
FREE WORK - I do free audio and video editing (anything considered - just ask).
Again - Creating Trust needs a bit of trust given "slowly but surely"... not all-in... being relaxed about it... but has to be more - 'working' like a 2nd job towards peace because your job isn't going to do it / it's now allow by State to get there! War increases prices etc ☮
So do "peace" as a side-job like it was your real job in the world, parallel to the Capitalism (Trap) you (we) were born into. We have to accept that and fight out of that and not be comfortable in it.
Heart and Soul all the way.
