        I don't want you all to end up in Gitmo. Even if I don't always agree with your guys takes, there's already so few communists and anarchists in the West as is =(

        We'll need organizers and teachers of history and theory to survive the next couple years.

          Look on the bright side. Many theorists did their best work in prisons from which they never escaped! thonk-cri

        If we actually wanna be serious about it, we should move the site off of the clearnet

        I2P maybe

        Even if you access this site over Tor, probably like half the exit nodes are run by feds to do traffic correlation

          Yeah, I’ve been thinking this for a long while now. Could we open a serious discussion?

          Edit: Not even cuz of trump but for opsec and resiliency as a whole.

            Would be in favor of this, especially if things start looking bad

            Idk how federation would work, if at all though

              I dunno, moving to something peer to peer would be my suggestion. We may loose federation but what do we use that for anyway besides trolling libs?

                Whatever it is, we should do it over one of those anonymizing overlay networks

                Just putting the site on one of those is a start at least

                We may loose federation but what do we use that for anyway besides trolling libs?

                Well..... yeah lol, idk, I used to be more positive on federation but usually all I see is the same Reddit sludge outside of Hexbear and Lemmygrad

                At least some people have come over. If we take this step we're basically gonna be more isolated than ever

                  Yeah I dunno. The new freenet seems promising for ease of use and integration with federation but idk how they do with privacy. Veilid seems to have the reverse problem. I’m sure there’s a solution but we should have a real discussion on what that is.

                    Personally I'd want to go with something proven and widely in-use already like I2P or maybe Tor

                    Especially cuz of the relative ease of moving over cuz we don't have a lot of devs

                    I don't know much about the new Freenet tbh, I used to be into the old one though, cool as hell tech tbh but bad implementation

      On the other hand, I think some people are quite paranoid. There's a balance to be had.

      Meh, if roundups came I'd have been on the list we'll before hexbear existed. I've got a police record and for sure a file in numerous bureaus, cause it doesn't take much at all to be in one. If you're worried about your posting getting you in trouble, you aren't doing enough irl

      I'm careless because I'm not American and we aren't quite at the level of becoming a fascist state like in Europe or America

          the delete account button on your settings page should wipe all your content. Its fun to have a handle and be well known, but for opsec its better to rotate accounts, that history is never fully gone, someone probably archived it

            that history is never fully gone, someone probably archived it and a federated platform like this makes archival easy by design.
