Every one of these people sobbing their faces off and going into hysterics about #drag shows and drag storytime is 1000 percent full of shit. They are not trying to prevent #kids from being exposed to “#sexual material”; they want, desperately and with their whole hearts, a way to (further) marginalize #LGBTQ+ people without coming off as the #bigoted assholes they obviously are.

At the start of #WWII, Industrialists in Germany sided with Hitler believing he had power to win ultimate authority. They backed him simply to retain their own money and power.
We see the same history repeating itself in the #US as #Capitalist companies like #Apple, #Amazon and #Microsoft cozy up to #Fascist #American #Oligarchs like #Musk and his fellow uber rich tech bros.
By remaining on #Twitter, companies like #Mac are supporting the idea that the fascism and open hate currently fomenting on #twitter is simply public discourse.
This puts companies like #Apple in a powerful position where their continued engagement shows acceptance and normalization of this #fascist #hate in the guise of #freespeech.
I used to purchase Apple products regularly, but plan to steer clear in future. I even recently avoided buying new earbuds from Apple, happy to say #Sennheiser got my money this round.
I refuse to contribute any more to these #greedy, #morallycorrupt #capitalists. Capitalism has shown it will openly accept and normalize #Eugenics, #Hate, #Discrimination, #Abuse and #Disinformation; all in pursuit of a fatter wallet, no questions asked.
If/when we ultimately descend into a war with these open carry fascists, know that they have been long funded by good ole’ multi billion dollar American capitalist companies like #Apple.
Apple is the new #IBM.

The "copaganda" epidemic: How #media glorifies police and vilifies protesters
"How the pro-police focus of #mainstream crime reporting misdirects policy discussions and blocks real solutions.
(...)
Last year, Project Censored identified news coverage of protests by #BlackLivesMatter as an egregious example of "News Abuse," the Project's term for distorted, misleading coverage of genuinely important news topics. Legacy and corporate media portrayed #BLM demonstrators across the United States as violent and chaotic, despite subsequent evidence that, in 97 percent of cases, protests were peaceful and nonviolent. At the time, alternative and independent media carried very different stories, some with headlines accurately describing "police riots."

“We have to continue working to ensure that #women & #girls enjoy #EqualRights & #equal participation in their #society; that #indigenous groups, #racial, #ethnic, #religious #minorities, people w/ #disabilities do not have their potential stifled by systemic #discrimination, that the #LGBTQI+ people are not prosecuted or targeted w/ #violence because of who they are. These #rights are part of our shared #humanity.
"Very few #racial #discrimination claims ever are successful. It's a misperception that they are. A vast majority of claims are #dismissed by #judges without even an opportunity to see a jury. So they don't go to #trial. For judges, it's not about discrimination, you just have a 'personality conflict'. This doesn't warrant moving further for deeper inquiry.
From 1979 - 2006, federal claimants only won 15% of job discrimination claims." - Tanya K. Hernandez

Where is the #outrage over #racism #discrimination #bigotry and #islamophobia on the #fediverse?
The whole thing with #Ro has proven one thing: that so-called "safe spaces" on #Mastodon were NEVER meant to be for anyone other than #white #LGTBQ people. Just look at all the #AntiBlack racism, showing that even #BlackTrans folks are not safe here.
#Whiteness is the only thing that provides any protection here. Offend a #WhitePerson, and prepare to get #fediblocked. Anything else is fair game.

Dutch dating app Breeze asked the non-discrimination regulator, the Netherlands Institute for Human Rights, whether they should be allowed to adjust their algorithm so that people with dark skin and of non-Dutch origin are introduced to other users as often as people with light skin and of Dutch origin. The regulator says: the adjustment is not only allowed, it is required. https://www.mensenrechten.nl/actueel/nieuws/2023/09/06/dating-app-breeze-mag-en-moet-algoritme-aanpassen-om-discriminatie-te-voorkomen #law #tech #ai #discrimination #humanrights #gdpr #bias #netherlands

This person who seems to have a lot more people on their side than I do is going up against the #antimask #COVIDdenial #eugenicist policies of Commerce Bank https://twitter.com/Helenreflects/status/1702111753050419581?t=Xfx5TGw60U-eAyADkDZXiQ&s=19 and I really hope they can successfully sue the place for #discrimination and make an example of them so that places like the shitty credit union that discriminated against me and gaslighted me about it will be put on notice. #CovidIsntOver and #Covidinfection is no joke. Being forced to remove your mask, no matter if it's "momentarily", is a risk that nobody should have to take.

So you receive threats of violence and intimidation… and then YOU are punished with exclusion because of safety issues. This reaction seems to reward the people making the threats.

Call me out for being weird but there was a Setappp survey regarding MacOS apps. I was happy to fill it since I believe in statistics and their correctness and diversity, however when there was country selection I had to abandon it as there was USA and other. I don’t live in another country, I live in a country let’s say, because I don’t want to be rude, equally good as the USA. So why don’t give me an option to choose? #discrimination #rant
Judd Legum reports today on the attempt of the North Carolina Judicial Standards Commission, packed with judges appointed by Republican chief justice Newby, to silence Supreme Court justice Anita Earls, the only Black woman on the court.
Her alleged misconduct? She has criticized the state Supreme Court for its handling of issues of racial and gender discrimination. So the court wants to make her shut up.

ALICE COOPER Dropped By Cosmetics Company After Anti-Trans Comments

I would say that identity/security is the reason most people are made to take off masks, like NYC mayor Eric Adams has told small businesses to do. As a bank, they have a right to ask me to identify myself for their security or whatever. However, they were unwilling to work with me on this whatsoever.
I would actually feel way safer doffing my mask in a properly ventilated setting, where there is far less risk. So the drive through interactive teller machine would have been the place I would have been fine with taking it off for a second to identify myself, because it's outside with nobody around in a fairly windy area. But that is the option they provide for people who don't want to take off their mask. It's not very logical.
If they had wanted to identify me they could have me like take off my mask outside and look at me through the window or something, it would not be hard to accommodate me and let me take it off in a ventilated place where it's safe is really the deal.
Instead of working with me on it they just went straight to lying to me telling me that unmasking had always been their policy and that they applied it equally to everyone. I hadn't been asked to take it off before, and I hadn't been asked by the same person when they helped me before.
They didn't notify me of this policy change in any way. The same hoods and sunglasses sign telling people to remove those items that had always been on the door was on the door, and I had always been happy to comply and take off my sunglasses or hood or both, not my mask, and they were always fine with that in the past.
The sign on the exterior facade telling people to remove hoods and sunglasses says nothing about masks. If they have that as a policy then they need to not be cowards about it and ban masks with their chest. They need to say it on the door just like it says hoods and sunglasses. The sign doesn't identify any other type of apparel, just those two. That's what I want them to do, if they are going to take this stance then they need to take it publicly and loudly. This is a very anti-mask place. I'm sure most of the local community would support them on it, and they probably won't even lose much business. But they need to say it openly, that's what I want from them. Make it crystal clear that they are engaged in #discrimination against the members of their credit union based on #health status and being #immuncompromised with #ChronicFatigue caused by #LongCOVID. If they will add to their signs that customers must remove their masks in the underventilated indoor setting of the bank branch interior in order to be served, I would be satisfied, because at least nobody else would have to go through the same refusal of service I experienced for trying to protect myself against #COVID19.
This is a redacted version of the letter I got from the credit union. They actually think that they can lie to my face and tell me that they "apply this policy equally" when they NEVER ONCE asked me to remove my mask before, or gave me ANY INDICATION WHATSOEVER OF A POLICY CHANGE.
They are claiming that since the TSA does it, it must not be dangerous. These assholes don't seem to realize that the TSA is endangering people and causing more #LongCOVID #Disability cases every day by forcing people to doff their mask to be identified.
I want these gaslighting pricks to have to experience what living with Long COVID is like, since they believe that forcing people to unmask "should not create excessive risk".
The fucked up thing is if they had written emails about this change they made, or just let us know in any way that there was a conscious choice being made to expose people to COVID in order to appease their bullshit feelings, I would maybe have just accepted it. It's the gaslighting, and the claim that there is no risk, the denial that they changed anything in the first place, when I opened my account while masked, that really gets to me.
I am hoping that #lawstodon or #Legalstodon or #mastodonlawyers or someone who knows about #discrimination #law will help me with this. It's really about the principle of the thing. There were hundreds of legal cases where people were funded with all the Koch oil money on Earth to do their anti-mask "medical exemption" BS. So if they can claim a medical exemption to having to wear a mask, how can I not claim a medical exemption that allows me to #maskup and protect myself? The math isn't mathing.
