Consuming #news about #politics is more similar to {opening a tabloid, looking at bikini pics of a celebrity on Twitter or watching a 10″ clip of some bizarre sporting curiosity} than to {reading an essay or listening to a well-researched podcast}.
Political news are mainly morbidness and supernormal stimulus — not useful knowledge.

Please boost this post if you would like the EFF to join the fediverse. 
In a survey the EFF sent me, I suggested they create an account on the fediverse, so they can reach more supporters and support innovative free software that promotes interoperability among platforms, something they've advocated for in the past, too.
If you can boost this post, maybe I'll be able to show them that there are quite a few users who would like them here!
The EFF is the infamous nonprofit organisation that fights for privacy, government transparency, and digital freedom. Their fight is very important, and the EFF is very special to me. https://www.eff.org/about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Frontier_Foundation
You can see some of their work here https://www.eff.org/work
In the meantime, you can follow @eff, which is an unofficial mirror of their Twitter.
It was so cool to be in the room when this moment happened, back in my @w3c days…

I am so old that I can remember when other people's achievements were considered to be an inspiration, rather than a grievance. https://twitter.com/ThomasSowell/status/1369654186338566150 #Mises
