The legislation hasn't yet passed everywhere, but all 50 states introducing some form of right to repair legislation is a "tipping point” for the right to repair movement.

    Until pedo-prez and nazi-musk determines that it’s hurtful to gafam.

    Sorry for becoming a cynical asshole, it’s actually a good news but I can’t help myself these days.

      Local and state officals can enforce laws on their own without federal involvement

      Assuming everything is doomed to fail is exactly what Trump and Musk want from you. They want you to stop fighting or trying because you might realize they are weaker than you think. Don’t do their work for them

    The state and local is where most of the progress is going to happen in the next 4 years. They control a lot more than you think - even including running elections for federal office. Pay attention to all your local elections - they are going to matter a lot

    EDIT: While I’m here, going to mention there are local elections in some localities across the US tomorrow (feb 25th) in parts of California, Connecticut, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, & Maine

    Here’s a substack post with more info about those local elections

      Ballot measures. Write them if your state empowers them. That’s where the democracy will happen.
