If you're a #police #officer In #Britain & you don't want to be spat & kicked at, don't be a #policeofficer in the #UnitedKingdom.
Your job at these #demos is literally to make supporting #genocide easier for the #British state, what do you expect?
For months now, whispers have turned into a roar about a certain EU proposal. At first, it sounds like a noble cause - protecting children from harm online
Who could argue with that?
But this is no ordinary mission. This is the turning point A moment where the digital realm risks falling into a shadow
A plan that demands all our private conversations be scanned
No suspicion. No crime. No reason. Just everyone. All the time
Imagine a system powerful enough to scan every message, every image, every whisper - on every device, for every person It doesn't need physical access or a noisy presence. It runs silently in the background, all the time
It was created to protect But its effectiveness is uncertain, and privacy is seriously compromised
Instead of focusing on real threats, it treats everyone the same - as if risk came from simply being online
A digital weapon built before anyone can understand its consequences Like a Death Star - not made of kyber, but of code
Created in the name of safety, but capable of something far more dangerous
Officially, this proposal is called CSAR (Child Sexual Abuse Regulation) , but most of us know it as ChatControl
And that's no accident - the latter name more accurately reflects what this system really is and the consequences it brings
If passed, it will mark the end of private digital communication in the EU And if it happens here, it can happen anywhere
Because what is accepted in one democracy can quickly become the norm in others. Europe often sets the standards others follow
And the world is watching
This proposal changes the rules It weakens encryption
, the very foundation of secure communication. When encryption is weakened, every message becomes vulnerable to interception
, and privacy is no longer guaranteed. When privacy disappears, democracy crumbles with it
The consequences do not end there - surveillance will become part of daily life
, and control over our digital world will only grow stronger.
I was born into a free internet I want to die in one too
This proposal breaks fundamental rights :
- the right to private communication (Article 7)
- the right to data protection (Article 8)
- the presumption of innocence
- the principle of proportionality
This is not a debate over ideology This is a matter of principle
To the @EUCommission: I know your intentions are good But history does not judge intentions. It judges consequences
You want to protect people
But you may end up building something that will be used to control them
Don't build a machine you yourselves would fear You will not be remembered for good intentions - but for what you leave behind
Think about how it will affect us all. Choose security, not surveillance.
This is your moment
Don't waste it.
To everyone else: You don't have to be from Europe to care
When harmful laws pass without resistance - the impact is felt everywhere
We are citizens of one digital world
And in that world, staying silent comes at the highest cost
Freedom does not die loudly. It disappears - quietly - unless we stop it

#Communists see this image & go: "Woah! #Trump's a #fascist maniac who must be stopped!"
#Liberals see this image & go: "But he's a #draftdodger! He doesn't deserve to wear that hat!"
This tells you everything about liberals & where they actually stand on #fascism.
" While ICE wears masks, the proud Americans in the streets wanted Trump to know who they are. They came from all walks of life carrying signs such as 'Free DC, 'protect DC home rule' and 'stop the Trump takeover.' "

#Freedom is when everyone has a #home, a #job & #healthcare
Not when we get to choose between 700 microbrews
Hope that helps
#Trump being a #draftdodger is one of the GOOD things about him.
Seriously, #liberals hate Trump for all the WRONG reasons.
I don't care that he dodged the #draft. There never should have been a draft.
#Liberals don't care about #fascism.
They're all more upset about the #aesthetics of this image than the blatant fascism.
Writing this, posting it, and then pulling it down and apologizing for it.

Bullshit in. Bullshit out.
It's wild to me how #western liberals believe that one could be a #billionaire, and also be " #progressive" at the same time. But then, I am not entirely surprised.
#Western liberals aren't the sharpest tools in the shed, & most are heavily propagandised, & economically & politically illiterate.
@GottaLaff
“Despite our well-documented flaws, a passion for #democracy still burns brightly for millions of Americans that can’t easily be extinguished. Nowhere is that more true than in a city of light called #Chicago. If Trump’s “Department of War” is serious about staging its first battle on the shores of Lake Michigan, it picked the wrong fight.”
