“I’m saying there’s never been more need for whistleblowers … There’s always been a need for many more than we have. At the same time, it’s become more and more dangerous to be a whistleblower. There’s little doubt about that.” RIP Daniel Ellsberg 🕊️☮️✌️ bit.ly/3Pg9yai

Please add techinquiry.org to your bookmarks. They are doing critical work to expose the dangerous and corrupt ties between Silicon Valley and the Pentagon.
Let's rename "Victory Day" to "Peace & Remembrance Day." Change is possible! After all, in 2020 RI voters changed the name of the state from "Rhode Island and Providence Plantations" to simply "Rhode Island."
I estimate that Biden’s FY2023 Pentagon budget will transfer ~$452 billion to private companies, based on my analysis of US military spending from FY2012-21: stephensemler.substack.com/p/house-author…
On average, House members who voted to increase Pentagon spending by $80 billion took *seven times* more money from the weapons industry than those who voted against the increase: stephensemler.substack.com/p/comparing-vo…
The "Peacekeeper" was a US missile developed to meet the imagined strategic needs of, what would effectively amount to, a hot nuclear war. The Peacekeeper. It defies comprehension. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGM-118_P…

We'll need better media post-revolution. Our @Nature letter was first authored by @DorsaAmir, but @IranIntl talked to one of the 500+ signatories who didn't write it, then invited one of our male authors for another statement he didn't write.See thread for our letter #مهسا_امینی

I had the great honor to moderate a Q & A with @xychelsea for an event organized by @BrownWarWatch . She shared her unmatched knowledge on the future of data and privacy w/ a packed house. Her clear message: we need to act now to protect our humanity. bit.ly/3DHynG5
On a visit to @brownuniversity today, @xychelsea talked with students and answered questions about data science, ethics, government transparency and more. Fascinating conversation! Thanks to @brownwarwatch for bringing her to Brown.

NEW @tparsi #QiOSK: The level of anger & frustration in Iran today — on display in dozens of videos across social media — appears far greater than in 2009, when Iranians took to the streets to protest a stolen election and push for reform. responsiblestatecraft.org/2022/09/22/ira…

Not only Iranians don't WANT foreign intervention, they don't NEED it. Watch their glorious grassroots uprising bring the dictatorship to its knees. The world should support them,but not by meddling and trying to dictate the direction of the movement #IranProtests2022 #MahsaAmini
A powerful image to highlight: The timeline of major Iranian protests , beginning 43 years ago. It starts with 1358 and ends with 1401, the current year. This tells you all you need to know about where the protests are headed.
🧵Difficult not to be struck by how the current #IranProtests2022 differ from those in 2009. The latter was about a stolen election and a fight within the current system re reform. They tended to be non-violent. The anger and frustration today are FAR greater. >>

If you work to strip women of their rights in the U.S. or support politicians that do so, don’t pretend like you care about women’s rights in Iran.
