Almost as if this was Netanyahu’s plan all along

Trump's plans to annex Greenland may be geopolitically motivated, but they also very much reflect the neocolonial mindset of the tech broligarchy: Greenland in particular has been on their radar for some time, and on the other site they are already envisioning their AI-fueled settler fantasies

Zuck has surrendered to King Trump.
And now our SoMe platforms are greenlit for a tsunami of hate speech and misinformation.

"Israel’s push to normalise the mass killing of journalists threatens not just Palestinian media workers. If such behaviour in war zones is normalised, then no journalist, no matter what passport they carry, would be safe."

Five journalists have been killed in an overnight Israeli strike that hit their vehicle in Gaza, a hospital and their news outlet said in a statement.

Utroligt at man som dansk journalist kan sprede så gennemskuelig misinformation fra en åbenlyst antimuslimsk propaganda-platform. Et øjebliks eftertanke havde måske fået een til at overveje, hvorfor den falske oplysning kun findes på propaganda-platforme kendt for misinformation.

Sad but true.

Campbell’s witty response to this homophobe makes me want to enjoy some of their delicious chicken noodle soup right now! 🍜 🏳️‍🌈

Death feels imminent for 96% of children in Gaza, study finds

Another day another Israeli war crime: a strike on Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp left more than 30 people, many members of same family, dead. www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/12...

Amnesty dokumenterer nu det som mange af os har sagt længe: Israels begår folkedrab i Gaza.
DK bør øjeblikkeligt afbryde enhver militær og handelsmæssig forbindelse med Israel indtil folkemordet stoppes og Israel forlader de ulovligt besatte områder. #dkpol

Mark Zuckerberg has travelled to Mar-o-Lago to bend the knee and kiss Trump's ring. Another reason to leave Threads for #BlueSky. Earlier this year Trump threatened Zuckerberg with prison time; nicknamed him "Zuckerbucks", unclear if Musk was also present after backing down from a cage match fight.
