The only reason to bomb anything 40 min apart is to kill the rescuers. Doing that to an elementary school is beyond depraved. The United States is the most evil entity on the planet
UN intervenes im UK treatment of hunger strikers today as British state remain negligent.
Heba has reported of immense physical impact on her body whilst T Hoxha describes being unable to stand without blacking out
We welcome the UNs intervention

@khalnero Democracy is the idea that the people can choose their rule. But if that rule is founded upon a lies then the the people did not choose that. The rule is ontologically undemocratic.
I personally belive such deceit ought to be criminalized in a democratic society. (2/2)
@khalnero Agreed. It fundamentally undermines the democratic process on which the politics of this country is based on.
If lying in a court of law is considered contempt of court, then I think lying to garner votes in a political election is contempt of democracy. (1/2)
"Under the Fourth Geneva Convention, Israel as the occupying power has an obligation to provide unconditional and adequate supplies of essential good and services to the entire population under its control."
"Israel is not fulfilling this obligation."

Today @declassifiedUK revealed that govt advisors told Yvette Cooper that proscribing Palestine Action would be “unprecedented” bc unlike the 81 others on the list PA mainly damaged property.
It was unprecedented. It was also foreseeable. A thread on UK counter-terror history 🧵
We will not participate in the EWC.
Message from CEO & co-founder below:
Hi everyone,
I’ve seen your reactions over the past few days regarding our decision to participate in the Esports World Cup in Riyadh. When we made that decision, it was with positive intentions. To engage with our community in the Middle East and to spread GeoGuessr’s core mission of let everyone Explore the World.
Since Erland, Anton, and I founded GeoGuessr in 2013, we’ve always strived to be a community-first game. Everyone here at the Stockholm office is a passionate GeoGuessr fan, doing our best to build something meaningful, with you and for you. That said, you - our community - have made it clear that this decision does not align what GeoGuessr stands for.
So, when you tell us we’ve got it wrong we take it seriously. That’s why we’ve made the decision to withdraw from participating in the Esports World Cup in Riyadh.
We will come back with information on how the wildcards will be distributed as soon as possible.
Thank you for speaking up and sharing your thoughts.

BREAKING NOW: "all major world maps" on the game @geoguessr have been privated in protest of their decision to participate in Riyadh's Esports World Cup.
map creators write that the EWC is used by Saudi Arabia "to distract from and conceal its horrific human rights record."
fun fact: did you know that if you have your adblocker on, you cost geoguessr $0? if you are unhappy about their ewc participation, turn your adblocker off on the geoguessr website. https://t.co/0IE6fahRdY
Well, there you have it.
@Geoguessr sportswashing Saudi blood money.
Fuck this company.
I hope the pushback on this is harsher than their Steam release. Entire decision team for the company that chose this should be dropped.

@geoguessr@EWC_EN Insanely stupid decision to participate in Saudi sportswashing in addition to having a wildcard that it is not safe for women and LGBTQ+ people to attend. It's clearer than ever that GeoGuessr wants World Championship to remain a boys club and keep women out of their esports!
