Wow. So regulation matters after all, huh.
Was it just in Kenyan textbooks where we learnt that attempting to appease hitler rather than confront him especially after he invaded Poland was one of the things that led to the Second World War? Do they not teach the whole appeasement doesn’t work thing in US text books?
two major factors come to mind:
1. Elon has a personal history of committing sexual violence, so this isn't a big deal to him. it probably makes him happy.
2. widespread violence against women and girls is foundational to the US fascist political project
maybe I'm just jaded from spending my entire adult life watching sexual abuse committed with impunity, but i dont think X will suffer any consequences.
society likes to pretend it cares about sexual violence, but actually doesn't.
Always at the scene of the crime in aid of empire 😭😭
HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files:
Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996.
The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.

WASHINGTON (AP) — At least 16 files from Epstein release disappeared from DOJ webpage, including photo of Trump, with no explanation.

Speechless.
Many African nations now spend more servicing external debt than funding healthcare and education.
I’ve seen some reporting on how AI is fuelling psychosis but I think we also need more studies on the impacts of digital addictions - and particularly social media and streaming - on empathy. Essentially hundreds of people watched a disabled man die in the course of 12 days of abuse.
Trigger warning: Abuse
Mediapart, a French outlet, shared a story of a French streamer who was killed by other members of his streaming collective in months of abuse including strangulation, beatings and poisonings on camera, violence to which people would respond by sending money.
A television advert for Sanex shower gel has been banned in the UK for appearing to suggest that black skin is “problematic” and white skin is “superior”.

If you watched season 2 of “Mo” you will have learnt that the US cannot deport Palestinians because to do that it would have to acknowledge that Palestine exists. So effectively what they’ve done is made this young man stateless.
This is literally why the UN Refugee Convention exists - because in the lead up to and during the holocaust European nations arbitrarily denied citizenship to their Jewish and Roma citizens as well as dissenters, deporting them to Germany for execution.

Trump is the author of this hell but he writex it with tools preserved, expanded, and ultimately sustained by first Obama and later Biden. Detaining a legal permanent resident for campus protest, under the flimsy pretense of aiding terror, can only be done with tools Bush built & Obama sustained.
The theme of the rest of this decade is going to be “I didn’t fuck around, why am I finding out?”
How is this real? Lmao.
Kinzinger: Zelenskyy had an opportunity to flee Ukraine when Russia attacked and he stayed. Is there anybody that has any doubt about whether Trump would flee the country if we were attacked.
