This changed a lot of people's perception of MIT, and not for the better.

[-] NABDad@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Did that have any noticeable effect on the policies or behavior of MIT?

[-] TomMasz@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

MIT didn't seem to think it did anything wrong and considered the school to be a neutral participant. I've seen nothing since that would indicate they accept any blame.

The Internet's Own Boy. RIP, Aaron.

I had a bad feeling when tech was turning out more like Zuckerberg and less like the Swartz. I didn't think they'd go full dystopia.

Aaron should have thought to start a trillion dollar multinational first -- then those laws that persecuted him would have just been a formality he could buy his way out of.

Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.

Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.

This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.

Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Rules

  1. If you post images with text, endeavour to provide the alt-text

  2. If the image is a crosspost from an OP, Provide the source.

  3. Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.

  4. Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.

  5. No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

  6. This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

  7. No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.
