a generation of mangled and destroyed people will be here as a permanent reminder of this fascistic purge (assuming we dont all die in nuclear hellfire and somehow get through this (unlikely)). similar to the permanent damage and tattoos done during the holocaust, a life-long punishment.

This clip is interesting, I get the feeling MM cannot say what he is saying conviction, I actually detected a bit of shame in his stumbling response, I think he knows they made a mistake here but I think it will say a lot if they double down here & don't mitigate d harm done

How the fuck do we have a Minister of Communication, who is utterly unaware of one of the most important areas of criminal law, for protecting children, which is part of his portfolio. And why the hell hasn't someone briefed him? Why do I know more than him & his staff?

This is 1) flat wrong on the facts 2) flat wrong on the law 3) flat wrong on the impulse to shield a company from the consequences of its own actions in offering the creation of CSAM-as-a-service This is the sort of morally bankrupt statement that should have its speaker be booed off every street

Agnès Callamard: “The EU’s refusal to suspend its agreement with Israel is a cruel and unlawful betrayal – of the European project and vision, predicated on upholding international law and fighting authoritarian practices, of the European Union’s own rules and of the human rights of Palestinians.”

The “Venezuela distracts from Epstein” line is ridiculous because 1) many awful things happen at once 2) Same Iran-Contra crowd pushing Venezuela invasion are or were involved with Epstein/Maxwell 3) Epstein associates (for ex, Dershowitz) want Iran invasion and see Venezuela as a test run for Iran

Sounds about right. The results of the 2024 election basically killed off the hopes of young generations. Those responsible for the housing disaster got rewarded with another 5 years. Not to mention disappointing EU leadership, Gaza, Ukraine, etc.

You have spoken to the henchmen of a ruler who, together with his cronies from industry, wants to destroy the EU. You do not condemn this flagrant violation of the principles of international law and the UN Charter. And you blame the victim (which has been kidnapped and publicly exposed). RESIGN!

A reminder: it doesn't have to be this way. Mexico has a hell of a lot more to lose than Europe by angering Trump. Yet this is the response of its president just now. This isn't a global phenomenon. Why have Europeans proven to be so uniquely cowardly over the past year?

Ok, so Canada can indict Trump for bribery, bomb Washington DC, and send the Mounties to round him up. It's that how this works? This is effectively might makes right by Vance. The US does not have sovereign authority over foreign leaders.
