“This is really going to impact institutions that we take for granted,” Internet Archive director of archiving and data services Jefferson Bailey told the Standard, “like our museums, our historical societies, our public libraries, our academic libraries — just a lot of people that keep information free and accessible and online.”
Ugh some asshole who’s only going to live a century depriving an endless future of historical knowledge. Musk needs to be detained and imprisoned.
Yes, “detained.” And “imprisoned.” ☠️
I wished we hadn’t voted for him. Wait a minute…
If you are USian, you did vote for him, either by voting, by not voting, or by not doing enough to prevent it. We on the outside of the US dystopia do get to suffer the consequences without having voted either way.
Modern book burnings create a lot less smoke and noise.
He is literally a foreign terrorist. Deport his ass!
ironically hes from a country thats currently being influenced by russia too.
Deport? Dude he is still a man of serious means. It won’t stop him. He needs to be put in a supermax prison and in isolation. It is an intensely cruel punishment but the only appropriate one.
Yes, I like your idea much better
Solitary confinement is absolutely torture, and a supermax prison like USPS Florence ADMAX sometimes make people question if they even exist anymore.
But for people like Elon it is the only appropriate punishment. They need to be isolated from everyone and everything.
He’s a loser. As are all his “dark enlightenment” apartheid neo-Nazi bootlickers :-)
they already faced cyber attacks now this? i mean, what can i say that hasn’t already been said? keep on fighting for democracy!
They also have a merch store: https://store.archive.org/
If you can, donate to them, even just a dollar. The Internet Archive is critical for preserving history! Heck, try to lobby your politicians to donate to them if you’re outside of the U.S. (because that probably wouldn’t work inside the US nowdays)
I started a 5$ monthly donation. I stopped the Mozilla one after they apparently started selling info to corps.
Time to donate again :)

You can write, but can you read? “The nonprofit was halfway through an NEH grant of $345,000 when its funding was abruptly cut.” If you want the government to document everything they can start with answering the questions from judges. Fuck out of here you goon.
I don’t they can write actually, barely understood that sentence.

Imagine asking for documentation from this administration to do something legally (see: illegal deportations). Did you even read the article where the director from the Internet Archive had some words about the funding? Or the source article where they listed the cuts and even an a screenshot of a termination notice? Bootlicking is so sad. These morons aren’t gonna help you
yeah right, american goverment changed 180 degrees when trump became president, like thousands of people in the apparatus. If he has such power then i have so many question about bush and 9/11. Funny guy
not 180, just ~120 or possibly less
They want to remove anything that keeps history accountable. This anti accountability regime don’t want their sins to be remembered. Imagine the linage of these assholes. How they will be looked down upon because their ancestors are are bigots and liars.
They don’t deserve lineages
It’s part of the fascist playbook
They don’t want their lies to be proven false. Same reason trump regime keeps making private government information that was previously available to the public.
“My lies can’t be wrong if I erase all records of the truth”
sucks that the things we need now require regular folks to be their patrons rather than collectively funding them, but here we are…
Your taxes can only go towards kidnappings! /s
Just donated 50 ♥️
❤️Donated. Cash is difficult right now, but I had some crusty old crypto sitting around just shrinking every month - they make it very easy to send some crypto their way so I was happy to dump it.
Thanks errer
Disposable income Lemmings, this is the way
❤️ love you Internet Archive
Thank you for the reminder. I donated 👍
I donated.
Thanks for giving the link and making this an easy 1-click thing. Just donated.
The post made me want to donate. Your link made me follow through. $25 for now. I hope others feel inspired to help too. Even a little bit from all us will help them float through the era Elmo and the Orangutan. 🦧
Elon Musk will go to any length to scrub this image from the Internet:
Yup
Liberetard
He looks like what you’d get if you took a dick and made it a pussy.
…what
I said, he looks like what you’d get if you took a dick and made it a pussy.
As in, he’s a dick (asshole), that’s a pussy (coward).
The government funded them $345,000.
This is 100% spiteful and not an example of “wasteful government spending”
Spitefulness is the point. Trying to make progressives cry. “Owning the libs”.
When donvict talked about being “your” retribution, he was throwing red meat to complete dumbasses because this is the kind of shit he is planning for them. Performative bullshit that will do nothing for the base, and certainly nothing for normal Americans.
We can easily crowdfund this. Especially the parts regarding Republican fuckery.
America, where the good stuff is funded on the side.
It sucks because the goal of all of this is privatization. They literally want regular people to pick up the “slack” (that they themselves artificially created) and fund things that are supposed to be public services.
So when they cut shit like this, our options are basically to: let it die, or do the exact thing that they want. Either way, it’s a win for them. It fucking sucks.
Just join the party? Everybody knows the US is a steaming shitshow more than usual.
Sorry, I don’t see what you’re saying
I give 5$ every month to wikipedia. I can give another 5$ to archive.org every month.
