If you want to stop mass surveillance in the EU : the EU created a questionnaire for concerned parties. It's quite manipulative. So it needs a cheat sheet. Which can be found here including more info: edri.org/our-work/pub...

Vandaag tussen 12.00 en 12.30 uur staat op de site van De Groene alleen dit stuk van redacteur Lotfi El Hamidi, over de moord op Palestijnse journalisten. Daarmee steunen we een actie van RSF en de NVJ. In het tempo waarin Israël journalisten doodt, blijft er straks niemand over om verslag te doen.

The United States is thought to have been among the first to use double-taps extensively, carrying out double-tap drone strikes in Pakistan, Yemen and Afghanistan. www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/8/...

What is a double-tap strike? Essentially, it's two strikes on the same target. The first strike is intended to kill an individual or individuals, the second to kill any rescue workers who come to help. The United States is thought to have been among the first to use double-taps extensively, carrying out double-tap drone strikes in Pakistan, Yemen and Afghanistan during the administration of former President Barack Obama. The tactic was adopted by other armies, such as those of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and the Russian army in Ukraine.

Today’s Executive Order creating a *nationwide* military “quick reaction force” and setting up an online portal to permit random fascist vigilantes to join soldiers is one of the scariest things I’ve seen in U.S. politics in my adult life. Why is it not getting more attention?

The D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force established in Executive Order 14252 of March 27, 2025 (Making the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful), shall establish an online portal for Americans with law enforcement or other relevant backgrounds and experience to apply to join Federal law enforcement entities to support the policy goals described in Executive Order 14333. Each law enforcement agency that is a member of the D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force, as well as other relevant components of the Department of Justice as the Attorney General determines, shall further, subject to the availability of appropriations and applicable law, immediately create and begin training, manning, hiring, and equipping a specialized unit that is dedicated to ensuring public safety and order in the Nation’s capital that can be deployed whenever the circumstances necessitate, and that could be deployed, subject to applicable law, in other cities where public safety and order has been lost. ( (ii) The Secretary of Defense shall immediately begin ensuring that each State’s Army National Guard and Air National Guard are resourced, trained, organized, and available to assist Federal, State, and local law enforcement in quelling civil disturbances and ensuring the public safety and order whenever the circumstances necessitate, as appropriate under law. In coordination with the respective adjutants general, the Secretary of Defense shall designate an appropriate number of each State’s trained National Guard members to be reasonably available for rapid mobilization for such purposes. In addition, the Secretary of Defense shall ensure the availability of a standing National Guard quick reaction force that shall be resourced, trained, and available for rapid nationwide deployment. image

Klimaatverandering is 'een van de grootste uitdagingen waar de mensheid deze eeuw voor staat', zei Christine Lagarde, president van de Europese Centrale Bank. Daarom grijpt het machtige financiële instituut in. Maar erg effectief is dat niet, laat ik voor @ftm.nl zien: www.ftm.nl/artikelen/kl...

Het leven is veel eenvoudiger als je gewoon alles wat dit soort populisten en lobbyisten uitbraken terzijde schuift als de leugens die het in 99,9% van de gevallen zijn. #aintnobodygottime

Oh, and you're on mute now by the way, so no use replying. I have no wish to see any more of your dumb thoughts in my mentions.

No, because his 'research' is sloppy, biased, full of assumptions and illogical interpolations. You obviously haven't bothered reading any of it. As you haven't even bothered reading the clues mentioned in the screenshot. You just repeat what you want to believe. You're intellectually lazy. Bye.

You make so many dumb assumptions already (for example about what I believe), it's pretty clear that it's no use at all to try and refute your 'arguments'. I don't enjoy playing chess with pigeons. Bye.

As a person who doesn't cook sometimes I like to ask "what if I were to make this very involved recipe with ingredients I do not have?"

De ARD zendt vanavond een docu uit over wat er speelt in NL. De politieke stemming wordt "typisch Nederlands" genoemd: volatiel en ongrijpbaar. Een land met veel afstand tussen bevolkingsgroepen, grote woningnood en "lang niet zo liberaal als we denken". www.ardmediathek.de/video/nieder...

Meh, dat "Partij tegen de Burger" grapje was jaren geleden leuk. De originaliteit is er nu wel af... #sleets

Agreed, but words are cheap, when the EU is still happily trading with Russia for billions of euros worth. Fossil fuels, fertiliser, fish... We need to completely isolate Russia, goods and people. Not just a applied to a selected list of some sanctioned goods and persons. We are already at war.

Yes, it's primitive and selective, geopolitical tribalism, and not about universal values applying to all people. Germany has learned nothing.

Can you elaborate? Do you mean stopping Twitter from spreading propaganda?

De extra druk op Israel die Veldkamp wilde werd door BBB-vicepremier Mona Keijzer volledig onderuitgehaald. "Volgens haar kon die brief absoluut niet, was de tekst onacceptabel. De aanpassing van beleid mocht van BBB hooguit cosmetisch zijn.” ‘Cosmetisch’ beleid om genocide ruim baan te geven. 🤯

Dutch Central Bank has been infamously anti-bitcoin in messaging and policy implementation for years now, for whatever reason, just like the ECB. A website by their employee Alex de Vries is absolutely "selling something" 😄.

Not a good idea to use "Digiconomist" aka "Alex de Vries", a Dutch Central Bank employee, as a reliable source. His 'research' was rather… flawed 😄.
