part of what got south korea out under the thumb of authoritarian dictatorships and to real elections (1987) and free and fair ones (1992) were large, mass protests and demonstrations.

which is such an anodyne way of describing what happened. it makes it sound bloodless.

it wasn't.

my country elected a fascist 10 years ago and he's now arguably the most unpopular pm we've ever had and we still can't get rid of him because once a fascist gets into power, typically you do not get them out without a whole lot of mass violence. Don't be like us.

These times are so highly precedented, they’re sourced and there’s footnotes and people have even been making TikToks about exactly what’s happening and where it came from and likely trajectories. At this point I think it’s not a matter of denial; people have a reflex to deny external stimuli

Equating trans rights with some sort of ideological purity is idiotic at best. It's about recognizing human rights in a democracy, and people cannot be used as tools for bartering. Nobody is a bargaining chip.

that andrew wakefield isn’t sitting in a british prison and is still, to this day, inflicting harm on children represents a complete failure of our medical, science, and political classes.

btw we must make sure that hilary cass doesn’t escape justice. she has perpetrated a similar medical fraud.

Wakefield is no longer allowed to practice medicine in the U.K. and has since relocated to Texas, where he has repositioned himself as a medical martyr and "father of the anti-vaccine movement."

He was seen alongside Kennedy at anti-vax rallies, and an epidemiologist who recently left the CDC told The Times last month that he remains the secretary's "North Star."

This is the right rhetoric. The problem is that the only legally armed body within the City of Chicago's nominal control are the cops, who a) have a 'union' who support Trump, b) Johnson has said can't arrest feds, c) are doing racist violence every day.

Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."

Altman claims the company didn’t anticipate people not wanting their deepfakes to say “offensive things or things that they find deeply problematic,” which sounds like a lie but is also indicative of how they recklessly release tech into the world.

OpenAI wasn’t expecting Sora’s copyright drama

It felt “more different to images than people expected.”

at least three people I know who recently traveled abroad on holiday told me they felt they could finally breathe once they left the states. They felt safe walking at night and didn’t worry about the government knocking on their door. Their destinations were non democratic countries.

Oslo University Hospital caught using trans patients' journals for research purposes:
- Without the patients' consent to participate in research
- Affecting minors
- 1700 of them
- Taking highly sensitive information from said journals

This is a HUGE breach.

that's someone employed by ice shooting a clergyman in the head with a "non-lethal" pepper ball

the picture in the post may not show up, but a search for "lee han-yeol" will provide you with a graphic image of what "non-lethal" weapons fired to the head can do

jessie spano's "the life of showgirls" streaming now @anem0ne.net · Nov 5

this is a picture of lee han-yeol after a "non-lethal" tear gas grenade shattered his skull, fired by riot police attempting to "keep order" during a mass demonstration protesting for democracy and justice after another student was found murdered by the secret police earlier that year.

lee han-yeol, bleeding from the temple and being carried away by a fellow student.

Hi, I'm a trans Californian who reported on the CA bills. This headline is misleading at best. You haven't noted that he has until the 12th to sign the other bills, leaving that out is irresponsible and fearmongers.

People can and should still pressure him on those bills.

mady castigan✨ 🏳️‍⚧️ @madycast.com · 22h

He hasn't signed the other bills yet, but he still has days to do so
This headline is misleading for not mentioning that.

The gender education veto is bad, but far from the most important trans rights bill on his desk.

There's still time to contact Newsom for the rest!

"The ones that are getting out are coming home to no home," Watson said.
According to her, after the raid occurred, building management stole or threw out residents belongings, including visas and important documents.

ICIRR is still trying to determine the identities of all the people detained in the raid. Castro said that the organization usually can do that by following up with family members or loved ones. "In this instance, there was nobody left to work with," she said. The only detainee name they're sure of is that of a person who passed their Venezuelan passport to a neighbor as they were being taken away.
