It's sad and scary, but necessary, imo. Despite being leftists, a lot of us are still laboring under the naivety (and a touch of white supremacy) that it couldn't happen to us, we live in a civilized society. And that's bullshit, they'll come for us when they think they can get away with it. And the fact of the matter is, that they've always just been working their way down the list of marginalized folk until they get to us.
I've been wanting to get more familiar, just don't have the money at the moment. I don't like that some folks involved are still using their phones though. Like if you're just using it as a fallback for disaster, I guess. Seems like a lot of extra power usage on an emergency tho. But using your pocket wiretap to access an alternative communication network seems pretty fruitless. The blackberry-like lilygo t-decks look worth checking out tho.
Reminder that any vaccines you have require a working immune system in order to do their job. If you keep getting Covid over and over again you likely do not have a fully functioning immune system.
