@feld @nein09 indeed. I wonder if even the average UK citizen is aware they used concentration camp in the Boer wars decades before Nazis were around.

@seven @yaaps heh, we had a discussion at work proposing we stop using PoC to mean proof of concept / person in charge because it also means people of color.

@mike_hales what saddens me is we still have no widespread, #privacy preserving #openstandard replacement for protocols like email that protects metadata.Sure there are secured #E2EE messaging apps like @signalapp but- they are silo-ed, not federated- messaging is less structured than email#Matrix addresses the silo concern but not the second. And encryption is optional there.

@imattau @mike_hales I'm on it. Doesn't solve the metadata problem though, it runs on top of normal emails so all the SMTP servers your mails pass through know who is talking to whom

@strypey re: education and healthcare - it's worse than that, it's not that the US can't, it won't, until people consign the current incarnation of the GOP to the heap dust of history

@thor @windcask @realcaseyrollins many Americans - or rather, USians - consider Bernie Sanders an unhinged socialist for proposing that the country be run more like Nordic countries. The Overton window here is so right wing.
