"Some wonder why there was such overwhelming support for us to shut down potentially TikTok or other entities of that nature. If you look at the postings on TikTok and the number of mentions of Palestinians, relative to other social media sites—it’s overwhelmingly so among TikTok broadcasts." — Mitt Romney
It's wild how he so casually says the quiet part out loud. The government is literally trying to stifle free speech and crush TikTok in order to quell pro-Palestinian content. :neofox_what: I've been saying this for a while because the urgency to ban TikTok didn't make sense otherwise, but people kept saying I need to take my tinfoil hat off. Well, here's a ranking senator talking to the secretary of state saying exactly that.
The government wants to crush the first amendment to prop up Zionism. Fascism is firmly bipartisan in America.

Sure. Vote #Democrat . Actually, you can vote #Republican and not much will change. A bit of tinkering around the edges of social issues, but the economy will still be nose-diving. The forever war will continue. And more and more people around the world will learn to hate the #US.
Vote for independents or minor parties. Try to restore some democracy to the #Uniparty system.
#RIP “Former #Arkansas governor and U.S. Sen. David Pryor, a #Democrat who was one of the state’s most beloved political figures and remained active in public service in the state long after he left office, has died. He was 89.”

You mean a #Dixocrat wins in Dixie Red AL and somehow this will change the neoliberal character of the Dixocrat party in power.
>3. #russia ...
..ans and Ukrainian activists and syndicalists have been executed for 10y in #Ukraine after the US sponsored neo-nazi coup dethroned the elected government critical of EU/NATO membership.
This item is very inside baseball and very hard to understand, but it also very important, so here we go. As you undoubtedly know, Donald Trump needs to raise something in excess of half a billion dollars very fast to post a bond ...
... so he can appeal his losses in both the E. Jean Carroll #defamation case and the Letitia James case. Getting a bank to loan him the money him might be tricky, especially since he has just been found guilty of defrauding #banks.
Trump's Twitter clone is owned by the Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG). The company's owners, mostly Trump, want to merge it w/Digital World Acquisition Corp. (DWAC).
The latter is a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC). Its prospectus basically said: "Invest in our company and when we get enough money, we will buy or merge with something valuable. Just trust us."
I know personally of #Filipino-American relatives in the #US who are #Republicans and likely to vote for #Trump. Which is IMO weird since #Obama gave their (and my) grandma #Obamacare (now #Medicare)... :sagume_think: But whatever, the point is that it's just not just #white people who are voting for Trump, and on top of that they're first-generation immigrants too! :koishtare:
Or I guess you're gonna consider them "white" too because you don't like them? I guess it's true that we #Asians are the schrodinger's whites... Considered "oppressed" and "allies" when convenient, considered "white" and "the enemy" when we dare disagree with the Western "leftists" who aren't first/second/third-generation immigrants. :ablobcateyeroll:
Oh and to be clear I do disagree with their choice. But I couldn't be assed to care about it as a #Filipino living here in the #Philippines because no matter if it's a #Democrat or #Republican you folks vote as president, we still get screwed over by your shitty #foreignpolicy. :seija_coffee:
@adiz Oh and I have to correct myself, the relatives I'm talking about also just moved to the US. Forgot that "first-generation" refers to those born in the US...
Which just makes it a lot more weirder! I can probably understand #Chinese being pro-#Trump due to his hard stance against #China, but there's just nothing to rationalize about my Filipino relatives being pro-Trump especially when they saw firsthand a #Democrat president giving their lola literal free healthcare/pension which she otherwise wouldn't have gotten under any other president because she didn't work in the US :sagume_think:
There are 80 million Christian Zionists who vote Republican.
The single biggest voting block next to boomers who are largely represented in that 80 million, are Gen Z & millennials who oppose Genocide Joe’s Israel policies.
How do the Democrats think they win in 2024? #uspol
Moscow police raid multiple LGBTQ+ clubs in wake of new Supreme Court ban
Moscow police raided multiple clubs in the city that were holding events for LGBTQ+ people on Friday night, according to multiple Russian Telegram channels. The apparent crackdown came just one day after the Russian Supreme Court banned the “international LGBT movement” as an “extremist organization.”
Hey, friends, my Mom wants a Twitter substitute and I promised to help her find the right instance. She's a #uspolitics junkie and a staunch #democrat
Any suggestions of either instances or a good place to look to help her choose?
