<p>"What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places — and there are so many — where people have behaved magnificently, it energizes us to act, and raises at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don’t have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory."</p><p>— Howard Zinn</p><p>Full text: <a href="https://www.howardzinn.org/collection/a-marvelous-victory/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.howardzinn.org/collection/a-marvelous-victory/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">www.howardzinn.org/collection/</span><span class="invisible">a-marvelous-victory/</span></a></p><p><a href="/tags/howardzinn/" rel="tag">#HowardZinn</a> <a href="/tags/resist/" rel="tag">#Resist</a> <a href="/tags/protest/" rel="tag">#Protest</a> <a href="/tags/uspol/" rel="tag">#USPol</a> <a href="/tags/democracy/" rel="tag">#Democracy</a> <a href="/tags/trump/" rel="tag">#Trump</a> <a href="/tags/gop/" rel="tag">#GOP</a> <a href="/tags/musk/" rel="tag">#Musk</a> <a href="/tags/doge/" rel="tag">#DOGE</a> <a href="/tags/ice/" rel="tag">#ICE</a> <a href="/tags/antifa/" rel="tag">#Antifa</a> <a href="/tags/vote/" rel="tag">#Vote</a></p>

<p>Dear Fedi friends,</p><p>If you can set aside 11 minutes today, I highly encourage to watch <span class="h-card"><a href="https://linuxmom.net/@vkc" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>vkc</span></a></span>'s latest video: "I stream nothing, and I am happy."</p><p>🔗: <a href="https://tinkerbetter.tube/w/ns3WDZZgAoe1SfrDCAUrni" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="tinkerbetter.tube/w/ns3WDZZgAoe1SfrDCAUrni"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">tinkerbetter.tube/w/ns3WDZZgAo</span><span class="invisible">e1SfrDCAUrni</span></a></p><p>It is ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT and should be shown in media literacy and digital literacy classes everywhere.

I was raised in a "mind-your-own-damn-business" household and that's where my head is at. But I do want to implore all of us to think critically about how streaming media, autoplay, and the algorithm are impacting us."</p><p>I'm super proud to be a backer of her Patreon and I cannot thank her enough for this incredible video... which comes at the perfect time, as I was already planning to set up <a href="/tags/jellyfin/" rel="tag">#Jellyfin</a> next week.</p><p>If you can, join me in supporting Veronica's work here: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/VeronicaExplains" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.patreon.com/VeronicaExplains"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">www.patreon.com/VeronicaExplai</span><span class="invisible">ns</span></a></p><p><a href="/tags/digitalliteracy/" rel="tag">#DigitalLiteracy</a> <a href="/tags/bigtech/" rel="tag">#BigTech</a> <a href="/tags/selfhosting/" rel="tag">#SelfHosting</a> <a href="/tags/independence/" rel="tag">#independence</a> <a href="/tags/resist/" rel="tag">#resist</a> <a href="/tags/medialiteracy/" rel="tag">#MediaLiteracy</a></p>
