BBC journalists held at gunpoint by Israeli police

Reply in thread

IDF killed a Reuters reporter earlier today with Helicopter. They've blown up the Al Jazeera offices during previous wars and shot Shireen Abu Akleh dead while she was clearly marked as press.

This is no mistake. There is a pattern of suppressing and killing journalists who don't report the story in their favor.

Ford lays off 700 who were building electric version of F-150 | CNN Business

Reply in thread

A Ford TV ad slams competitors for accepting bailout funds, even though the company’s CEO lobbied for the bill. The company — the only one of the Big Three not to receive a bailout — feared a collapse of GM and Chrysler at the time would have hurt suppliers and, in turn, Ford itself. Ford Chief Executive Officer Alan R. Mulally also asked Congress for a “credit line” of up to $9 billion in case the economy worsened. In other words, Ford was for government bailouts before it was against them.

And ford took more money from Biden's green energy plan. Ford is definitely guilty as fuck as slurping up government surplus and firing workers the second they stop making them a profit.

TikTok says it’s not the algorithm, teens are just pro-Palestine — The company denied allegations that it has been promoting pro-Palestine content in an effort to sway American opinion

Reply in thread

Tiktok also didn't censor the major protests in France like Facebook and Twitter did at the time.

Theres only a handful of social media outlets. Tik tok is just not suppressing the Pro Palestine content like Western owned media outlets have been.

We speak lots of " free speech " in the West, but look how quick, German, British, American, Canadian government and media spheres are united in calling Palestine protestors terrorists and supporting hamas.

Its just our lack of free speech being exposed when it goes against the powers that be.

I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel like Ford's future is going to be a struggle.

They completely killed making any cars smaller then Trucks or SUV's in North America and I really hope it comes back to fuck them.

I'm not crying that they won't make Ford Focuses anymore or whatever, but pretty much only people left to buy affordable, small cars from anymore is the Japanese and Koreans.

Good riddance to Ford. They long outlived their usefulness.

Man grabs Greta Thunberg's microphone after pro-Palestinian address at climate rally

Not to mention all the destruction of farms, the poisoning of water sources, all the destroyed vehicles and rotting corpses of men and animals alike laid everywhere.

They will be calling this the 2nd Nakba. Not only is it a massacre of the people, the Palestinians last remaining lands have been salted. Gaza looks like Stalingrad.

It is an entirely man made disaster. Or state made disaster if you will.

Oman declares a no-fly zone over its territory for all military aircraft involved in operations against Yemen

" Siding with Yemen " is a bit rich. The writing is on the wall for the current regional war to expand into a proper world war. They don't want their infrastructure, be it shipping or oil related to be hit by missles.

It's one thing to carry out an air campaign halfway across the earth where your enemy cannot reach your homeland. It's a bit different when the war is in your backyard and not on the television.

Same reason why Saudi Arabia is so squeamish about this whole air raid campaign. Both nations host American bases and troops. They are the logical first targets for the Houthi's to attack. Signing off on this would be stepping foot into the ring as a meatshield, with little to gain from this charade.

Yemen has already been bombed back into the stone ages, infrastructure wise. More airstrikes will not break them.

I get the point you're trying to make but if people ate whale the same way we ate pig the entire ocean ecosystem would have collapsed by now.

Not to mention almost all whale species are on their way to being endangered right now, while factory farmed pigs aren't.

Maybe just go with the line all meat is murder rather bacon is worse then whale flesh lmao.

As a response to Trump, Canada must decouple from US military

You know things are going awfully for America when the general public starts to support positions that was once only exclusively held by leftists.

I'm all for it though. Feels good to be able to publicly call the American government terrorists and bastards and now more people then not agree. Only took them threatening our existence as a country to get here!
