More than 1/8th of the White Mountain Apache Tribe has tested positive for Covid-19.
They have been hit EXTREMELY hard and I have seen no posts going around talking about it. It is one of the hardest hit places in ARIZONA, a state that already has horribly high case numbers.
They have a Covid relief gofundme. Please donate if you can and spread this if you can’t.
hi. i hate doing this again but i’m currently in a very tight situation. my anti depressant refills have been frozen because i haven’t been able to see my doctor in over two years since my medical insurance was taken away. i have no source of income and am only a student. my family also does not support me in anyway and demean me for problems such as these. they make me feel as if i were better off dead and out of their way. my father’s also a bit weary of helping me financially but lol. i also haven’t been able to see my hormone specialist for a tumor i have in my pituitary gland for the same reason. seeing my doctor would help me considering i need these anti depressants badly. i’m not sure the cost of the consultation or appointment but anything will help at this point! aside from all of this, the total cost for my medications each month is 80 dollars. i’ve skipped days and weeks to stretch out my use for a longer time. i understand if people can’t donate but reblogs r greatly appreciated! thank you!
• Downloading, and distribution of PDF files would be illegal, as well as photocopying books.
• Downloading files for academic investigations would become illegal.
• English, robotics, and engineering workshops would become illegal.
• Costs in education would increase.
That last one is particularly important because sadly, Mexico doesn’t have a great public education system, thus, many people have to enroll into private schools and most of them are very very expensive. Sadly almost half of the population here lives in poverty, in consequence many children aren’t able to go to public schools. let alone costly private schools.
• Amongst the things that would turn illegal too, would be electronic repairing businesses, and only those businesses with authorized licenses could work.
• It would be illegal to add components to electronic devices, such as RAM memories, better processors, amongst others, regardless of the fact that said components were bought legally.
• Maintenance costs would increase as it would be illegal to fix your own electronic devices, even if it’s just a small touch up.
If things weren’t already bad, the way we use the internet would be affected.
• Access to internet would become more expensive, new taxes would be added to platforms as well as media.
• Internet providing services could block the access to downloading images, music, videos, books, pretty much any content that could be found on the internet, including memes.
And last but not least.
Internet censorship.
“If someone points out any post or publication that violates authors rights, said post or publication must be hidden, eliminated, or disabled without previous notice, proof, or any jurisdictional order coming from the internet provider (…)”
Thus anyone, corporations and organizations, could demand for anything to be deleted and there wouldn’t be any reason to stop them as they would protect themselves with alleged authors right accusations.
Overall, our government looks forward to silencing us, keeping us quiet and not allowing us of freedom of speech.
This can have awfully consequences, as we would be silenced for expressing our political views and content would be manipulated to fit a certain political narrative.
369 votes were given in favor to this law, 0 against it and 1 abstention.
I am asking for everyone out there to please share this. My future and many others would be greatly affected by this law, many people could lose their jobs and fall deeper into the ever growing line of poverty that Mexico has.
We can’t allow for the government to keep us silenced and censored.

2 days ago Mexico passed a law that criminalizes internet neutrality. You can even go to jail for fixing your tech devices in your own home!Please even if you r nt from Mexico help us to boost this hashtag we have a until july 31 to do something about it!
This is my friend’s GoFundMe, please help out if you can!
She is a young woman of color who is not feeling safe living with her white partner/his family any longer, due to instances of gaslighting and racism that have been going on for a while now.
My name is Hellen, i’m 25, from Brazil, unemployed and about to be homeless.
I swear i’m only asking for you guys help because i’ve worn out all my resources. I made this blog for entertainment porpuses, and never intended to ask anyone for money but since the pandemic broke i haven’t been working, and been living off my relatives and friends help. I’m 2 months behind my rent, and another one is right around the corner and i also have some power and water bills due so my landlord isnt gonna hold up anymore. Ive had my gov check denied and i’m almost out of groceries and hygiene products. My rent is R$900,00 a month ($165 in USD), and groceries about R$300 ($55 in USD)
so like ANYTHING really helps, until i find a job or someone to shelter me for a while.
I know the times are hard for everyone, but if you have anything spare please consider helping me, and if you dont please just share or send some positive thoughts, i’ll be forever grateful.
I made a PAYPAL: vintageonce@gmail.com – Im not entirely sure how it works but i read that the “pay for goods and services” is the option that works in my country
thank you all
Guys really try helping cus a dollar is quite a lot in Brazil, so even if you think it’s small, it’s actually 5 times more
Now that the Terror Bill has been signed into law and will take effect in 15 days, a little reminder for my PH mutuals:
Set your social media to private
Do a clean up of your public posts
Block everyone of your friends who have voiced pro-government sentiments. You don’t know who will sell you out.
Do a check of your facebook groups. If you’re part of anti-admin groups, make sure it’s legit and not a fake group used to redtag.
Increase your email security
Stop signing petitions vs terror bill on change.org as this is what they’re using to redtag (remember the influx of fake accounts? Yeah)
Instead, send emails to your representatives using a vpn
Have your lawyer’s number on standby
Be aware of your rights (i will post a refresher here later on)
Look out for your friends and family
as a hker, I’d say, switch to protonmail, download signal (for personal msg) and telegram (for channels/large group chats), replace google with ducducgo, always use a vpn but switch to tor if its extra sensitive (or u can use both)
for anyone seeing this later: the original post was made on july 3rd, 2020. 15 days from now will be july 18th, 2020.
