“What’s really being done here is trying to eliminate online anonymity. If you cannot criticize the govt anonymously and if wrong speech is a crime then it becomes easy to identify all the detractors of the govt in power, and ban, fine or jail them for speech crimes.”

[Erin Ekins (she/her) @QueerlyAutistic]

The people smugly gloating that young people will just have to 'find something else to do' in response to the social media bans are usually the exact same people who seethe with anger and make reports about 'loitering' whenever they have to share public spaces with teenagers.

[Alonso Gurmendi @Alonso_GD]

Pretty sure this is all coordinated between key Western states that want to end online anonymity

[Token Grey Wolf @GreyToken]

@clashreport Seemingly independent nations with democratically elected governments moving in unison to bring the same laws into play. Interesting.

[Taylor Lorenz @TaylorLorenz]

Studies in AUS found that since the social media ban went into effect teenagers are significantly less educated on news and events and more ignorant on what’s going on in the world. This is the goal. Western govts saw the rise of the information age and are seeking to quash it

Staggering that the NYT reports Trump/Miller are plotting to suspend habeas corpus (i.e. end the constitution) & by the end of the day it's treated as a non-story, not anywhere near top of major news' outlets websites.

It’s purely a coincidence that the only place to find reliable (non-legacy media) information pertaining to Israel, Palestine, Epstein Files, Climate Change, COVID etc is social media and that governments around the world are banning access to this for our younger generations.

It’s not lost on me that Social Media bans were never really seriously discussed until public opinion on a certain country started rapidly changing 😂

A deeply sick society.

isn't it funny how being anti-cop & anti-ice is a universal statement but being anti-military is a taboo that will get you called a classist. isn't it interesting how we only judge systems of power when they harm americans but they are not that bad if they affect the global south

[Sandi Bachom 📹 @sandibachom]

Why isn’t this being reported on? It’s been out there for a long time and she was kicked out of Romania because of it

[Sabby Sabs @SabbySabs2]

Netanyahu is moving away from US financial assistance because it will be replaced with JOINT DEFENSE cooperation. When politicians like AOC agreed the US shouldn’t give weapons to Israel anymore, this was AFTER Netanyahu already said it. This NDAA is framed as DEFENSE. Few politicians vote AGAINST Israel defense. If this bill passes, the US Military will become one with Israel’s military.

[Aidan Simardone @AidanSimardone]

It's a myth Germans didn't know the Holocaust was happening. They may have not known the details, but they knew Jews were being sent to their death

Likewise, decades from now you'll hear people say that Israelis "didn't know" about the genocide in Gaza. That is also a lie

"Trickle down economics doesn't work, so let's try piñata economics. That's the one where we beat the billionaires until the hoarded wealth falls out."

Minister Itzhak Wasserlauf, who called soldiers to smash Palestinian babies on rocks, led the Israel Day Parade in New York today, alongside some of the most deranged Israeli MKs and ministers who regularly call for genocide and ethnic cleansing. Mamdani's NYC is fully complicit.

Folks, if you haven't been paying attention, the plan right now to deal with a possible stock market crash is to straight up make pension funds around the world the bag holders of last resort.

We are moving beyond Russia in the 90s in terms of outright looting at this point.

“violence isn’t the answer” only gets said when oppressed people start fighting back, not when the oppression is happening
