@freemo there was a post on twitter where, trump is dismissing his lower rating in a poll as fake news, i replied to the reply which someone just had LOL LOL etc loads of times, with the question LOL aside what happens if a serving president says the result of an election is fake news and refuses to step aside.

Under normal circumstances, that suggestion would be crazy, esp in teh US, but hey with trump at the helm who knows.

Looks like progress is being made on police reforms

BREAKING: House and Senate Democrats unveil sweeping police reform proposals.

I guess we need to know more about the users, but that would defeat the point of being here in a way.

What is meant by 'active' users ?
According to
https://mastodon.org.uk/about
There are 982 users of which 129 are active, which is 13%

Anyone up for exploring how people could run a similar event to this, again using Free tools but one that is open to ALL ages regardless of age, gender, race, etc.

In the name of equality.

This gets worse-

Event advertiseed on twitter
How can charities and community organisations build effective and safe online communities?

Event hosted on 'zoom' and one of the communities is on Facebook

So how can we counter this, and put some ideas together using free tools, and federated communities to achieve the same thing. ?

166 MPs out of 650 uk mps have signed a letter to ban the export of rubber bullets and other equipment to the US until an investigation is carried out.

Can we assume those that didn't sign this don't care or are ok with this kit being mis-used against people.

More police violence, I am not sure where the original source file is so this is on twitter. The UK government and opposition(s) remain silent or seem to.
