Hello World!
I just spoke with a #US #Senator office about the #fediverse . They're asking for more information to help spread around #Capital #Hill in small bite sized easy to understand pieces. I'm obviously going to give them @elena beautiful #movie on the #fedi (with some light editing which she's agreed to).
I'll of course show them https://fediverse.info/ and https://fedi.tips/ which are great websites. I figured I'd give them examples of amazing #AP projects such as #mastodon , #pixelfed , #peertube , #bandwagon , and #bonfire ; even things like @admin .
I'd love to know from folks any EASY to understand projects that best encompass the Fediverse and explanations of it.
What are some projects you'd hand to your friends and family that would explain and display to them what we are?
I'll say this isn't going to happen over night. There's lot of questions around regulations, trust & safety, etc. But I feel it's pertinent to at least get the conversation going, especially considering the current state of disdain for big social media and the impending legislation around these things.
I'll finally state if there's anyone in this list that does NOT want to be involved with this, that's totally fine and I understand and I can exclude you from the materials I give to them.

Dozens of #ImmigrantRights activists faced off w/ #federal agents in rural Southern California on Thursday. It was the latest escalation of #Trump's campaign for #MassDeportations of immigrants in the US.

Trump's conflicting messages sow confusion [& disbelief] over the #IranWar
#Trump says the #US is winning the #war with #Iran even as thousands of additional American #troops deploy to the #MiddleEast.
He has pilloried other countries for not helping the US, only to say later he does not need their assistance. He has 2X delayed deadlines for Iran to reopen the #StraitOfHormuz.

#B2bombers moving to #Guam amid #MiddleEast tensions
The #UnitedStates is moving B-2 bombers to Guam, 2 US ofcls told Reuters Saturday, as #Trump weighs whether the #US should take part in #Israel's strikes against #Iran.
It was unclear whether the bomber deployment is tied to Middle East tensions.
The B-2 can be equipped to carry America's 30k-pound GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator [aka #BunkerBusters], designed to destroy targets deep underground.

Something you won't see discussed re: the #USA striking #Iran : spillovers.
What might happen next:
- the USA strikes North #Korea
- #China escalate the East China Sea & South China Sea issues
- China attack #Israel & #US allies to protect its interests in Iran
- The #AxisOfEvil activates
- China can also choose to escalate the war between #India and #Pakistan
- there is still the war between #Russia and #Ukraine
You won't see it discussed because #PacificAsia & the larger #AsiaPacific don't matter to most people saying their piece about the wars in the #MiddleEast .
Now that the USA joined the war against Iran, we are now dangerously close to #WorldWarIII #WorldWar3 #WWIII #WW3 , it all comes down to the next action of the freaking colonial mentality USA and superstitious China (a.k.a. Dragon Emperor myth).
US Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dan Caine says it will “take some time” to assess how much damage was done in early Sunday airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites. ABC News reports:
The #UN’s office for the coordination of #humanitarian affairs said Sunday that it is witnessing “a chilling pattern of Israeli forces opening fire on crowds gathering to get food” in #Gaza.
#Israel began allowing food into Gaza this past month after cutting it off completely for 10 weeks. Most of the supplies go to the #GazaHumanitarianFoundation, an Israeli & #US backed private contractor, which operates 4 food distribution points inside Israeli military zones.

Trump's threatened 30% #tariff on #SouthAfrica exports is set to deal an economic blow to a community he has vocally & controversially championed: white farmers.
Citing false claims that #white South Africans are being persecuted, #Trump has cut aid to the country, publicly berated its president in the Oval Office & invited #Afrikaners - descendants of early European settlers - to come to the #US as *#refugees*.

Explosions were reported near a #US #military #base in #Qatar Monday after #Iran vows to retaliate for #Trump’s assault on #nuclear sites. The development coincided with a warning from the US #Embassy in Qatar’s capital, #Doha, urging American citizens there to shelter in place. Qatar’s govt on Monday also closed its airspace & suspended flights as a “precautionary measure” while the #MiddleEast braces for a potential expansion of the fighting between #Israel & Iran.
Scrambling to reduce Canada's dependence on the Donald Trump-led U.S., the country's Prime Minister Mark Carney on Monday signed a security and defense partnership with the EU.
The aim is to shift Canada's defense and security relationship away from the US
