The Direct Messages on Masto are broken in a way that is potentially dangerous

It has happened more than once that someone has tried to contact me in my admin persona about another user using a "Direct" privacy toot

And they try to talk *about* the other person

But Masto helpfully auto-fills their name, so now they're *in* the conversation

And suddenly someone who absolutely should NOT be in a private conversation is added by accident

If voting in some democrats means you feel less inclined to criticize the government (i.e. Obama's election - more austerity rammed through, drone attacks, deportations, impoverishment than Bush) fuck that.

If voting makes you feel less need to strike, unionize, form worker-owned cooperatives, throw your body on the gears and generally fight the greater capitalist corporate fascism behind the small angry white man fascism it manufactures, then fuck that.

1. Nationalism, large standing armies, fascism and xenophobia lead to World Wars
2. We invent Remembrance Day, so that we have a time specifically to remember this and think about how not to make it happen again
3. Remembrance Day is gradually converted to the holiday for pan-military-action (support the troops!) which celebrates nationalism, military involvement, ...
4. Oh no
