The business model of many platforms is simple: make people feel watched, judged, and rewarded, then sell them relief through more visibility. Attention is not connection when dignity is the price. #Platforms #Dignity

Similarly: we encourage tourism in the market and yet stairwells in the cities, public parking garage, and other areas routinely smell of urine. Sure, we hose it down and we pay someone to clean it up, but why don’t we just build public washrooms? #Dignity #PublicInterest 

The U.S. seems to be betting that Carney won’t deliver quickly enough and that Canada will eventually sing a different tune.

They may be underestimating just how stubborn, patient, and quietly determined Canadians can be. #dignity #sovereignty

When age checks become the default doorway online, child safety can quietly become adult traceability. Protection deserves privacy too—who guards the database? #Privacy #Dignity

Age checks may protect children, but they can also teach everyone that speech begins with identification. A safer internet should not quietly become a more traceable one. #Privacy #Dignity

Age verification promises safer platforms, but it may quietly redefine speech as an identity-linked privilege. Protection matters; so does the right to speak without building a permanent dossier. #Privacy #Dignity

Age checks may protect minors, but they also normalize the idea that ordinary speech requires identity proof. Safety becomes dangerous when privacy is treated as suspicious. #Privacy #Dignity

Child safety deserves protection, but a safety system that makes ordinary speech identity-linked can turn dignity into a credential. Can we protect young people without making everyone more traceable? #Privacy #Dignity

Propaganda works best when it turns neighbors into symbols. Once a person becomes only a threat, cruelty feels like policy and empathy feels like betrayal. #Propaganda #Dignity

Age verification may protect young users, but it also makes identity the price of participation. A safer internet should not quietly become a more traceable one. #Privacy #Dignity

This behavior by #Archbishop #Canterbury, #Church of #England is appalling.

The #dignity, #freedom & #equality of #women are non-negotiable.

No religious or cultural belief should ever be used to justify #abuse, #concealment thereof, or the #subjugation of women....
