The crackdown on pro-Palestinian protests and press covering the demonstrations in the streets of #Chicago during the #DNC should be seen not as a surprise, but part of a strategy of counter-insurgency.
This is coupled with an attempt by the party to incorporate a "progressive" veneer - made possible by politicians like #AOC and others - which seeks to crack these movements and defang them.
To move people off the streets and herd them back into the terrain of representative politics. To expand the divide between "peaceful protesters" and "outside agitators" to its logical conclusion: the nullification of class struggle and anti-colonial conflict.
The Democrats want to throw a wet blanket on protest movements and social struggle, and instead make them part of a broader coalition that takes orders from the party apparatus that is managed by those loyal to the Pentagon, Wall Street, and ruling class interests.

String unblinkingly into the pleading, tear-filled eyes of yet another dame looking for me to solve all her problems, I sighe, stretched, scratched my whiskers, stuck my hind leg in the air and bent my spine at a 45-degree angle to reach down and lick my butt clean, then donned my fedora--Taco, Cat Detective, was officially on the case.

As @CaitlinWaddick writes here: loomio.com/d/16wSnmrt/fwg-orgaโฆ
We in the #SocialCoop Finance Working Group feel strongly that it is time to build out a serious Legal Working Group. This has been an ongoing discussion, but we need support on:
- Incorporation
- International membership
- Liability protections
- Emerging regs on social media
And this doesn't fall under the banner of any existing working group.
It would be ideal to have a working group composed of both professional lawyers and non-lawyers with an interest in relevant issues. We don't want an overly professionalized entity, but one that is above all accountable to our shared values.
Like the other WGs, stipends should be paid to participants.
Who might be open to taking the lead on forming a living Legal Working Group? The commitment might look like quarterly meetings plus being responsive to questions from other working groups.
People who have in the past expressed interest include: @beckett @mako @dazinism @sam @Matt_Noyes @Eliot_L @dmokreis @GiacomoSansoni
@coopartisans @FreeScholar @toddxy @JosephAndriano @BillySmith
Can you help? Maybe start by organizing an initial meeting?
Thank you!
@beckett @mako @dazinism @sam @Matt_Noyes @Eliot_L @dmokreis @GiacomoSansoni @coopartisans @FreeScholar @toddxy @BillySmith
Being the lead would be difficult for me at this time. However, I am happy to be supportive of the effort and join it.
That said, if no one is willing to step up, I would be happy to facilitate the first meeting just so we can get the discussion going and discuss who will lead it.
@beckett @mako @dazinism @sam @Matt_Noyes @Eliot_L @dmokreis @GiacomoSansoni @coopartisans @FreeScholar @toddxy @BillySmith
Assuming no one else wants to facilitate the first meeting, to ensure this does not fall through the cracks, if you are interested in this endeavor please respond directly to me with your availability for a 1 hour meeting in September using the social.coop Matrix video chat. Thanks!
@beckett @mako @dazinism @sam @Matt_Noyes @Eliot_L @dmokreis @GiacomoSansoni @coopartisans @FreeScholar @toddxy @JosephAndriano
I'll be happy to help, but i am currently undergoing chemotherapy, so while i can contribute, i won't be at my best for the next few years.

August 19 Steam Beta brings a Remote Play crash fix
A small Beta update landed for Steam Desktop and Steam Deck, bringing in a few needed fixes so here's what's new from the August 19th update.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
I'd love to use remote play to stream locally to my android TV but it's so buggy I gave up, I get black screens, freezes, lag spikes, etc.
Both the PC and the TV have a wired connection and my GPU is a previous gen AMD card, so it should be ideal conditions on Linux, I think.
Hopefully this gets it a bit closer to working for me.

That WAS the relentless part. I have an uncle who is a respected scientist. I remember when my cousin came home to him with his report card, proud of his accomplishments: he had all A's except one B in math. My uncle punished him for that B. As I said, we were treated like dancing monkeys.
