In Britain, the Labour government deployed troops in at least 18 industrial disputes between 1945 and 1951 (Ellen, 1984). In Australia, the army was used to break a national coal strike that same year (Deery, 1995). In France, a centrist coalition government that included the [so-called] Socialist Party twice resorted to large-scale military and police repression during nationwide strikes in 1947 and 1948, including the occupation of mining regions and mass arrests of workers (Mencherini, 1998).

Dark horse predictions for friday's trump putin summit:

  1. Trump gets novachok poisioned by the british and the west blames putin.
  2. A nuclear bomb detonates at the airport when putin's plane lands both sides blame the other and say the opposing president avoided the meeting and is just hiding.

Idk whether this has been talked about or not, but since Pocket has shut down, anyone has an alternative recommendation to it? I have downloaded Raindrop, but I haven't registered yet, maybe somebody has a better solution. (I have no access to self-hosting yet), thank you!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

If you're able to self-host, you may want to look into karakeep or shiori. I started using Vanadium instead of Firefox on Android lately and have stuck with it because of how much better it is, however I do miss the ease of bookmark and tab sharing across devices. Right now, I'm trying to work with floccus, but having a shared read it later list now sounds appealing to me.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago

I'm using Raindrop, it's fine. I've used Pocket for a long, long, time. Raindrop is for me more like a bookmark manager, while the pocket was mostly 'read it later' or rather never app.

It's funny how Israel is seen as the protector of Jewish culture when they discouraged their citizens from speaking Yiddish or Ladino

[-] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago

I like to hurt myself by starting shit in predominantly right wing online communities. I made a post about a far right org intimidating our Pride on a Dutch subreddit and it is so funny. They are always posting Muslim lgbtq+ intimidation incidents and defend lgbtq+ rights in those topics. But now they are trying to bring nuance or are outright deflecting with other bullshit. I wonder why.

Also, these guys have the PR instinct of a mosquito. All you can do to make me look like a fool is saying: man that is stupid I condemn this. But they cannot bring themselves to condemn a right wing attack on the lgbtq+ community.

Do y'all think ID verification will soon be mandatory across all mainstream social media?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

Will be in australia. By december all social media sites have to delete all accounts of people under 16 and the only way to do that is for them to ID people. Supposedly its to "protect children" but they aren't calling for age verification on porn sites so its pretty obvious its all about tracking what people say and do online.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

I've also heard that sites like YouTube will implement AI systems to estimate users' ages based on the content they view, and apply restrictions accordingly, such as blocking the viewing of videos deemed problematic, and an ID will be needed to prevent these restrictions. But considering that the majority of YouTube's "kid's content" is either brainrot or ElsaGate content, this will more likely be used to silence opposition, such as coverage on Israel's genocide against Palestinians.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

I can definitely see it ramping up even more than it already has. There may be one or two holdouts that distinguish themselves for not doing so, at least temporarily, though.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

I expect it to mandated by law to make accounts with any online service within the next 5 years. I'm working on a full transition away from the few things i still use that need accounts with those types of corporate services now. The main thing left to do being email.

Q: How many zionists does it take to screw in a light bulb?

A: This joke is antisemitic.

The journalist Anas al-Sharif was murdered by the occupation. I had to cry it out after hearing it. When will it stop?

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

Yeah. Every few days I break down and scream something like "Just stop it already" to nobody in particular. If there is a god, when I die, I swear I am going to stab them like 30 times while yelling "This is for Gaza you sick fuck."

Back to work. Two weeks off for my pre burnout did me good I must say.

Pride was decent. Some fighting between participants and fascist who were protesting. Sadly queer activists for arrested for it.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Damn that's sad. At our pride, we had activists arrested for protesting the Booking .com boat that was pinkwashing their involvement in genocide. It seems the authorities who claim to be on the queer's side aren't on our side after all. That being said. I'm feeling more empty now our prides done. As a queer person, it was still nice to see that for a whole week the city became ours. Even though it attracted a lot of straight people who just came here to party and were harassing queer people lol.
