Jim Jordan starts another censorship-hoax hearing, where you're asked to believe that Europe regulating its market has been a 10 year plot to mass censor the global internet. That's right: you couldn't talk about COVID or US elections and you never knew 🙄https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLHJJ_wjADU

One of the bestest boys I ever met was a doberman that knocked me over when we first met by sneaking up on me from behind. Then stood over my face and growled at me. The silly dude growled the way cats purr. But I didn't know that at the time and thought I was going to die. Loved him. Great dog.
not new advice to all you beautiful people, but for anyone in your life who needs to hear it: DO NOT GET A DOG SIMPLY BECAUSE THE BREED WON BEST IN SHOW—ESPECIALLY NOT A FREAKIN' DOBERMAN IF DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING. EVEN THE AMERICAN KENNEL CLUB SAYS SO! thank you www.akc.org/expert-advic...

I think a lot of white US people are being exposed to revolutionary thoughts and methods for the first time.

I don't know if they deserve to be given grace to adjust. Is there even enough time to let them make many mistakes?

They *should* be listening to marginalized people.
Yesterday I read a post and watched an attached video from a person who has articulated themselves as an activist and was complaining that people reacted badly to him filming them burning garbage. This was creating evidence for their criminalization.

Don‘t do or model this. It’s snitch behavior.

The elite do not like it when their narrative is not accepted.
Pleased to see the jury make this decision.

We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries.

People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover.

The elite freaked out about how TikTok allowed Americans to receive a narrative that was not elite approved and have been clamping down on avenues of information. Its no different than the Chinese Firewall and should be seen in the same light.
