O Janones foi ao Estúdio i e explicou exatamente isso. Acrescentou que vai processar a advogada por calúnia e ainda desafiou a advogada a provar as mentiras. Caro que Janones sabe que tem gente de direita infiltrada. Então como não tem áudio ou print das fake news?

Meta has censored more than 1,000 pro-Lula accounts during the Brazilian Presidential Election. Evidence shows that the social media giant clearly interfered in the election. paydayreport.com/meta-censors...

Each year, ~2.4 million Americans turn to the internet in search of abortion care. Repro justice advocates warn that an anti-abortion political landscape that coalesces with a new age of AI-mediated information access has also created new concerns about privacy, @nicolefroio.bsky.social reports.

O que me irrita muito em momentos como esse é que todo mundo chega com uma resposta milagrosa depois do "a esquerda falhou em...". Sendo que na real não tem uma resposta, tem várias, e a articulação tem que vir de todos os pontos. Um objetivo comum enquanto cada um usa sua própria arma e munição.

a little louder for the cheap seats in the back
One of the biggest myths is that men rape by mistake. Like, "Oh, they need consent training." But research is very clear: Sexual violence is not a mistake. It is an intentionally made decision by people who know they don't have consent. They just don't prioritize consent over things like status, power, domination, and sexual gratification.
For my research, I got a certificate of confidentiality from the National Institutes of Health, so my notes couldn't be subpoenaed. One of the reasons I call them perpetrators in my work is because every single person I interviewed confessed in that context. The first question I would ask them was, "When you received that email from Title IX that you were under investigation, did you know what it was about?" Every perpetrator I interviewed said "yes." If sexual assault were a miscommunication, you would be wondering, What have I possibly done wrong? That is not the way that any of them reacted because they knew.

A few days ago, Nurse Hammam & his family survived an Israeli bombing in Gaza, but they lost their tent & are now homeless, hungry, sleeping on the streets with nothing. They urgently need $350 for a new tent & food. Every contribution could be a lifeline for them🙏💔 chuffed.org/project/1844...

quando a imprensa corporativa diz "a esquerda subestimou o bolsonarismo", devia estar dizendo "a gente subestimou o bolsonarismo". porque a aposta foi em bater no Lula, deixar ele acuado, possivelmente contando em reverter agora. só que talvez não dê pra reverter. desejo cercadinho

Se você diz que ama alguém e logo em seguida demonstra que é a favor de políticas de Estado que desembocam na morte e na miséria de milhões, você é, além de tudo, uma pessoa cínica, covarde e traiçoeira. Você diz que ama pra se sentir bem consigo próprio.

🔥🔥🔥
Feminism has never been popular, and in its most unvarnished, uncompromising form, will never be popular. The foundational mythos of our culture is rooted in the denial of autonomy and personhood to women, in the punishment of those who are derelict in their reproductive duties. To say that women are people, that women must be free, is to invite upon yourself the whole world’s ire, to be able to count your sisters true on one hand.

You will not be thanked. You will not be lauded. You will work for the benefit of those who curse your name with every breath, and you will likely not live to see any of your efforts bear fruit.

You will do it anyway, because you love women more than they will ever love you.
