If there’s $10 left over one admin can buy 2 slices of pizza and a can of pop in payment for 1000s hours of free labor.

Nothing is perfect and nothing is permanent.

If you are extremely motivated to have an account that can never be pulled out from under you, you must run your own instance.

In the fediverse, its plausible to do this and still be connected to others. There are.lots of single user instances. There were some small businesses opening where you could pay someone else to do the admin work for you if you are disinclined to that kind of geekery yourself.

I think this is it https://defed.xyz/ all together

But on any instance you can scroll the the bottom and click “instances” in the footer to see its relationships to others

I think some of the inferences here are missing a piece.

Conservative governments may both be reflective and encouraging of far-right conspiracy theories and lifestyles.

But this isn’t about individual choice to get vaccinated. It isn’t even really about community sentiment. it is about public policy to enforce vaccination. Not just what’s written on paper, but what actually happens.

• black letter law: whether they allow non-medical exemptions, how easily these can be obtained, if they are permanent, if they are scrutinized etc
• enforcement: how vigilant are the schools and health units at suspending non vaccinated children?
• availability of health services for those who do wish to vaccinate: is it practical to access care? Including time off work, travel, opening hours, length and pleasantness of appointment
  • my opinion is we should bring back in school vaccines or at least offer after school clinics in the school itself
• resources allocated to public health units: much of the above would be the responsibility of local PHU. Do they have the budget from higher ups to afford all this? And do they internally allocate sufficiently to vaccine programs?
• community outreach: it isn’t just doing press conferences and scolding X posts. Internationally, many successful vaccination campaigns have been accomplished by identifying local leaders and getting them on board. This includes religious leaders. Is anybody doing this in Canada?

it isn’t just the current provincial government you have to look at. You need to look at the past 10-20 years of provincial and municipal governments. And those appointed to various health related intermediary organizations by the governments themselves.

“When she spent too much time with Stephen Harper, she brought out his bad side,” a Conservative source said. "She has the same effect on Pierre Poilievre. She is responsible for his negative tone.

Finally they found a woman to blame.

It’s not the fault of these men for having such unpalatable “bad sides” in the first place. Its her fault for “making them” show what fash freaks they are.
