"We are not troubled with them at all" - that's how one lawmaker responded when asked in the #14thAmendment debates if children of immigrants should be citizens. Shows it was discussed, but not seen as a problem then.

The #14thAmendment's birthright citizenship wasn't an accident. When it was debated, they explicitly discussed the inclusion of foreign-born citizens. #Immigration was on everyone's mind, as shown by the 1868 Burlingame Treaty with China which encouraged migration.

To those who believe #Trump blaming #DEI for the plane crash, don't forget that under openly gay Transportation Secretary Pete #Buttigieg, U.S. aviation had its safest years on record.

There's a literal technology arms race going on with #china right now and #trump is faffing around going after brown and trans people. How is this supposed to make America "great"?

I forgot that even though #mastodononline is closed to open signups, I can literally just invite new people.

Let me know if anyone wants an invite to the "exclusive" club.

[#]Trump's attempt at trying to make people care about immigrants is kind of weak. Especially considering the news about #DeepSeek. Noone cares about what a few law-abiding illegal aliens are doing when the US is being eclipsed globally.

After using #DeepSeek for a bit, yeah, it's better than #gemini for #coding. I asked the same questions which I use normally and the answers #DeepSeek give are better.

I'm making the switch.

Lash month I switched from #openai to #gemini for development, but maybe I should look to #DeepSeek? The #coding benchmarks look pretty good.

Instead of a #bitcoin or #crypto reserve, how about we pay off our national debt? A lower deficit means less taxes.

So, with the latest executive order (EO) that states children born to undocumented immigrants are not under the jurisdiction of the United States, does that mean these children are actually sovereign citizens?

After looking at how the Heil Hitler salute is supposed to be done. It's kind of scary how accurate #elonmusk's salute was. He can't even say it was accidental.

Soo.. #TikTok is now boosting conservative voices and blocking searches critical of them. This proves what many suspected. #freespeech is an illusion there.

It's wild how many "liberal" journalists are defending corporate free speech after the #TikTok ruling. Remember Citizens United? Corporations aren't people, and they shouldn't have First Amendment rights. #bantiktok #freespeech #tiktok #citizensunited

Someone should make an #openvibe for #tiktok. There are like a dozen short-form video apps out there.

For people seeing Chinese propaganda on #rednote about how amazing China is, I hope they recognize it is propaganda. The immigration numbers tell a different story. There's a whole movement to get out of China called the run movement. It's not a futuristic utopia.

Just a reminder for people leaving western social media over moderation, #Rednote and the #CCP censor a lot, and their idea of acceptable includes banning news organizations like the BBC and restricting #lgbt content. State-controlled speech is not the answer. #freedomofspeech #tiktok #tiktokban

What will happen first? Will China ban #rednote for foreign infulence, or will US ban it for national security reasons?

For those who believe TikTok doesn't deserve a ban, search for "Chinese Uyghurs" within the app. You won't see content criticizing the CCP. It's not a free speech platform if topics are tightly controlled.

Why is it that only #mastodon offers a built in rss feed? #nostr, #bluesky, and #twitter don't.

I want to make a discord channel to show all posts on a hashtag, but only Mastodon lets me.
