they spent so long trying to make amends
Did they really though? They worked to appease their guilt but never really dealt with the underlying reasons it happened in the first place.
Most of those that did the dirty work during ww2 just went home after and carried on.
Same with the British. Most people have no idea about how or why all the shit in the middle east started or why it continues.
BRICS is making headway with that.
The US empire is already in decline. What it’s allies need to work out is when to jump ship
You have a system that is mostly based on gentlemans agreements from a time when most of them were slave traders/owners.
Similar to the British system, if a cunt gets into power, there’s no real safeguards against them acting cuntishly because it’s a system based on gentlemen agreements amongst the descendants of the Norman aristocracy
If it wasn’t, they at least knew it was coming & deliberately allowed it to happen, then used the Hannibal directive to kill as many of their own citizens to profit from it
Despite pleading guilty to the charges, Keenan maintained that he is not sexually attracted to children, and had only stumbled upon the child pornography in 2017 while “searching for other images such as sunsets and beaches,”
In all the time I’ve been online (early to mid 90s), I’ve only encountered CSAM once & that was browsing 4chan back between 2005 to 2008 when arseholes did a flood of one of the boards & I went on a major sanitisation of my machine.
Never have I encountered it “in the wild” nor when looking for images such as “sunsets and beaches”.
Jail the guy for a long time and put the judge in a neighbouring cell.
While Netanyahu has been a shit stain on the world stage for the last +25 years, getting rid of him alone will not stop the violent zionist settler colonial project. It existed before he was born and will continue unless the root cause is fully understood.
Considering that the bbc is not a very trustworthy media outlet, I view them reporting this with the same incredulity of all the maga cried going on about Hunter Bidens laptop.
Not to say I don’t think PRNK isn’t an authoritarian regime but all the things they claim about that phone are the kind of malware that Western agencies use all the time.
Go educate yourself on how Israel came into being in the first place.
It wasn’t through peacefully asking Palestinians to share the land but by three groups, who gleefully wore the title of “terrorists” that bombed & killed their way into terrifying the populace.
It wasn’t the Palestinians that planted a bomb in the King David Hotel that killed 96 in 1947. It wasn’t Palestinians that carried out atrocities such as throwing babies into ovens in Deir Yassin and Tantura.
Israel was born out of collaboration with colonisers & imperialists, through selling out other Jews who opposed zionism, through a thousand acts of indiscriminate terrorism against the indigenous population and through an apartheid system since.
Bbbbbut what about October 7th?!!!
It’s history equivalence is the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising but Israel ain’t the oppressed fighting back.
In the UK, if I opened a page that had CSAM on it but closed it as soon as I realised without opening the images, the fact that my browser has cached that page (with thumbnails) means I’m in possession & could be prosecuted.
Gandhi was asked “Mr. Gandhi what do you think of Western civilization?”
“I think it would a wonderful idea”
They had enough practice in Africa prior to carrying it out home
we’re gonna end up with /r/sinkpissers. Lol
In all seriousness, you really don’t want a mass exodus from Reddit to Lemmy instances. It’s better that it’s slowly so growth is managed but even more important, user quality is maintained!
When the Digg exodus happened, Reddit literally overnight went from a considered discussion board to full of ascii art, 1 line shit witty or pun comments, lyric threads and the signal to noise ratio went to shit.
On top of that there were constant stability issues that were compounded by all the thickos constantly hammering F5.
It’s typical of the neolib Labour party.
They’ve recently reintroduced legislation for digital IDs, just as they did the previous time they were in govt (prior to 2010).
We also have police stepping up unregulated use of facial reignition camera on the streets
They are obsessed with authoritarianism.
They’ve been happening already
[Edit] For those that want to take action with BDS: https://www.bdsmovement.net/
There are apps you can get for android & iPhone where you can check is a product is from Israel or an Israeli company and will give latest news and updates
It was performative nonsense, as per usual of the democrats.
The only thing it did was take the record from a segregationist.
A mass movement for capitalist reformism?
That will end well.
Any artist I hear online that I like their music, if they dont have a BC page, I suggest they sort one out. What I like about them is that I can stream peoples music via the app but also download it so I actually ‘own’ the music. I also like buying physical releases from artists through there.
I’ve not sold music through there so I’m not au fait with their terms but I know its not as terrible as all the streaming sites.
Moving from YouTube Music to Spotify?
Spotify has been fucking over artists for years
You could write that as 1 line:
[ -z "$var" ] && echo "empty" || echo "no it aint"
Not just bumps but designing infrastructure so it forces the drivers to negotiate it at lower speeds.
Simple stuff like narrowing the approach to junctions and roundabouts so it has to be taken at a slower speed than it being a wider aperture when minimal braking is required.
Raising the pedestrian or bike where it crosses a road (on side streets) so the vehicle has to slow rather than the active transport methods.
Reallocating road space to wider pavements and segregated bike lanes so streets are mixed modal.
