We need to get our arms out of the US machine. Regulate US companies out of our countries. It’s as big a security threat as Russia.
NEW: last night, the US govt launched an assault on the ‘global censorship industrial complex’, aka European tech researchers/campaigners.
It’s a deeply chilling move & speaks as to why we need international solidarity more than ever.

People in the UK may not have heard that the American broadcaster CBS recently pulled a section of their flagship '60 minutes' news programme that investigated what happened to the people deported from the USA to Ecuador. This thread summarises it. TL:DR Abu Ghraib Part 2.
This has been made available, so for purposes of commenting on Bari Weiss's decision to spike the story, here's a live-post of that segment.
It begins with a "you may recall" summary of the deportation to el Salvador. Describes the admin's claim that it could deport the men without due process

#Chlorophyllum molybdites are starting to appear in decent numbers. This #mushroom is likely the number one cause of mushroom poisoning in North America. Beautiful, but a hard pass.

The concept Nigel Farage is incapable of grasping is human rights are universal - if we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights – just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want. I’ll fight that to my last breath
