A few days ago, the U.S. government sanctioned A/I for supporting “extreme far-left antifa terrorists”. If you didn’t know, A/I is an antifascist and anticapitalist group based in Italy, and they host a lot of services (like email, website hosting, etc.) run through donations. Their policy states that they are against racism, sexism, militarism, homophobia, and transphobia, and you have to agree to those principles to use their services. Their website and mailing server has been taken down, and unfortunately, that also means my email no longer works. It’s kind of insane how quickly the American government can take down internet services they don’t like. A/I has denied all of the allegations by the Trump admin, and rightfully so, they’re just a digital services provider who respect your privacy and are against fascism and bigotry.

I still need to use email, so what’s a good alternative email provider that doesn’t profit off of my data? I have used Disroot in the past and had good experiences with their services, so they are currently my fallback. I have ruled out Proton and Tuta, as neither support IMAP properly.

      But you’re not, and anyone with at least two brain cells can see that.

      Trump calls “Antifa” a terrorist organization. “Antifa” is not an organization at all. It’s a broad term for people who call themselves anti-fascists, and rigidly police each other’s use of that term.

        We are not talking about some abstract antifa, only this single organization.

        You argue that Trump is bad, because he is against organizations, that call themselves antifascist.

        I wanted to show that calling yourself antifascist doesn’t mean that people who are against you are fascist.
