Via the excellent @heistberlin.bsky.social, Zara Rahman: "What I feel now, for Germany, is pity. Pity that society can’t see what they’ve become; pity that such a huge amount of people are living in such wilful denial, such inauthentic and dishonest lives." www.heistberlin.com/goodbye-to-b...

I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.

A screenshot of an email viewed in dark mode with the subject line "Google DMCA Violation." The email from Google informs the recipient that they have received a notification under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that some of their materials allegedly infringe on copyrights. It explains the removal process, mentions that notice details will be posted on Lumen, warns against repeated violations, and lists one affected Google Drive URL at the bottom

A nearly identical mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. It shows a search for the same Amnesty International UK resources URL, resulting in the same message: "This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine."

On this momentous and proud day for British constitutionalism, may we hold Virginia Giuffre’s memory dear in our hearts. Read her memoir, Nobody’s Girl. This sweet, brave woman fought with every fiber of her being so that Epstein, Maxwell & their whole world of sickos see more todays. RIP sister.

At the risk of stealing some poor bot's job, let me offer a brief summary: "The titans of tech that are trying to usher in a technofascist future, whom we partner with and whose products I use regularly, are once again telling us that their bots are on the verge of being able ...

Legal status doesn’t matter: if you exceed ICE’s melanin threshold, you get snatched. It is ethnic cleansing. There is no other word for it. The news has shown you video of these often violent detentions. What you don’t see is what happens to these individuals after. I’ve had a front row seat. 7/

So the main culture war in Germany, fought by the country’s leader, is that despite mass deportations there are still too many non-white men in German cities: which needs to change so that white German daughters can feel safer. That’s an actual position that he is taking. An incitement to violence.

Horrific. Everyone needs to speak out against the demonization of trans people.

Say her name @apnews.com - Maryam Abu Daqqa risked her life working for you, yet now you refuse to say her name while spouting the same old IDF lies. Shame on the AP and all the mainstream media silent amid the slaughter of >250 Palestinian journalists - that's more than 20 colleagues each month.

Disgusting, genocidal propaganda served up as an ad. WTF, YouTube?

A YouTube ad in Germany claims: "There is food in Gaza. Any assertion otherwise is a lie."

🧵If people want to believe that white supremacist misogynists & those inclined to listen to them are driven to their hate & voting patterns by words that are A) accurate & B) claimed by entire classes of people, well. Those people are fools. Let's stop abandoning our values for imaginary votes, 'k?

I'm Jewish and I think about antisemitism all the time. I can't tell you how fucking weird it is that Homeland Security posting literal neo-Nazi propaganda generates less discussion about the threat to Jews than a mayoral candidate who believes Palestinians are human beings.

In my experience, people often think that, wherever they live in the world, crime is particularly bad there. It's a fear fed by politicians and corporate media - and one that is often belied by the evidence on the ground if you actually visit the places that they're talking about.

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all: “If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.” Israel just killed him.

My goto is to ask LLMs how many states have R in their name. They always fail. GPT 5 included Indiana, Illinois, and Texas in its list. It then asked me if I wanted an alphabetical highlighted map. Sure, why not.

A shitty map created by ChatGPT5. it purports to be US States with an R in their name, but it's wrong and dumb and worthless just like LLMs.

Indiscriminately hunting and kidnapping people who are likely looking for a day of physical labor, and apparently anyone who looks Latino. In violation of a court order. Called Operation Trojan Horse because they came in a moving truck. This is how they promote themselves during a recruitment push.

The German Right flexes its muscles, terrorizes and gaslights an SPD candidate for the Constitutional Court into stepping down. An attack on the justice system and on democracy.

Rather than voice legitimate criticism of the airdrop of aid to Gazans facing starvation and genocide (that it's ineffective, dangerous, not nearly enough), this influential German MP from the governing CDU claims that it only helps Hamas. www.tagesspiegel.de/politik/empo...
