Secret Hamas Files Show How It Spied on Everyday Palestinians (www.nytimes.com)

The Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar has for years overseen a secret police force in Gaza that conducted surveillance on everyday Palestinians and built files on young people, journalists and those who questioned the government, according to intelligence officials and a trove of internal documents reviewed by The New York Times....

It didn’t happen.

It only happens a little bit.

It happens and that’s a good thing.

PopcornTin ,

It’s terrorists/freedom fighters all the way down.

PopcornTin ,

How many? All, or should you be selective? People with contagious diseases? People with criminal histories? Etc, etc. The issue is controlled immigration with safeguards against those, or open borders with no control?

PopcornTin ,

Asking any questions, discussing any part of an issue is bad. Do as you’re told, or else we’ll call you bad names.

She was accused of faking an incriminating video of teenage cheerleaders. She was arrested, outcast and condemned. The problem? Nothing was fake after all (www.theguardian.com)

Madi Hime is taking a deep drag on a blue vape in the video, her eyes shut, her face flushed with pleasure. The 16-year-old exhales with her head thrown back, collapsing into laughter that causes smoke to billow out of her mouth. The clip is grainy and shaky – as if shot in low light by someone who had zoomed in on Madi’s...

The accusations are the punishment. It’s used all over the place.

Study reveals "widespread, bipartisan aversion" to neighbors owning AR-15 rifles (www.psypost.org)

A recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences reveals that across all political and social groups in the United States, there is a strong preference against living near AR-15 rifle owners and neighbors who store guns outside of locked safes. This surprising consensus suggests that when it comes...

This is a more of a study on the public’s opinion of this model gun. It gets a bad rap in media, so people who don’t know anything else about it don’t want anything to do with it.

Until they need somebody with one…

PopcornTin ,

As we’ve seen in the last few years, you can find experts to say whatever you need. That’ll have a longer lasting effect on the public’s psyche than anything.

PopcornTin ,

It’s ridiculous, just let the FBI edit the evidence however they want so long as they get their convictions.

PopcornTin ,

Cost to develop, govt red tape, number of possible customers, and of course, profit. We’d have to analyze each of these, factors weigh the results, etc.

Or we can skip that and just blame the system.

PopcornTin ,

Canada just beat us to it, is all.

PopcornTin ,

They’ll have to sell of their stocks to get that 2% to cash, which has the added benefit of lowering the stock’s value. Next year, we’ll bump it to 3% to make up the difference. Rinse, repeat.

PopcornTin ,

Still not good enough for our narrative.

PopcornTin ,

It’s probably climate change. That earthquake was from climate change, so why not?

PopcornTin ,

Five years? They need $100 billion at least monthly! It’s ridiculous the way Republicans treat these innocent people

PopcornTin ,

Does it get sunlight from a nearby window? Algae loves raw sunlight.

PopcornTin ,

Punched? I think the smash against the concrete contributed to the skull fracture more than a punch.

PopcornTin ,

Nex was different in that it was a suicide by mixing medications. Christianity teaches that suicide is wrong, so you can’t really blame that for this one.

PopcornTin ,

Kinda like the superb owl parade or Thanksgiving parade (last year or two?) shootings. No political use, no story to report.

PopcornTin ,

I don’t know, maybe ask him to not run at him with a garden tool? The fact that they need to be trained to have this tiny amount of compassion is sad. They just want any reason to shoot neurodivergent people of color like this.

PopcornTin ,

Exactly. Abolish police. Abolish prisons. Abolish people’s right to carry guns. Only then can we have the truly peaceful society we want.

These Trump areas need to just fall into the ocean. It is sick what they want to do to poor people.

Firefighters booed New York attorney general who sued Trump for fraud. Officials are investigating (apnews.com)

NEW YORK (AP) — A union representing New York City firefighters is raising concerns about possible disciplinary action against its members after state Attorney General Letitia James was booed and a pro-Donald Trump chant broke out during a fire department ceremony last week....

Hopefully they will be arrested very soon. The whole institution is corrupt and needs to be defunded.

PopcornTin ,

That’s why they shouldn’t call the cops when a person of color is involved. The police will just kill them.

As ADA Krause said in the Rittenhouse trial said, “We all take a beating sometimes.”

The New York times article gives a little extra detail.

up to 14 weeks into their pregnancies, according to the French justice minister, Éric Dupond-Moretti.

That’s pretty much only the first trimester (12 weeks, so two weeks into the second). Why rejoice to this, when in the US, any limit on it is decried as the most horrible thing ever?

PopcornTin ,

Originally, it had no meaning. It was just the letter K. There are attempts to rewrite history, give it some purpose, but no.

PopcornTin ,

Nope, it’s been stated, so it’s a fact here. You are just in your own tiny bubble of people who don’t want to live in China.

PopcornTin ,

People who have experienced various other countries want to settle in the US. People here who haven’t been elsewhere, idolize the idea of X country and post about wishing they could go, knowing deep down they wouldn’t even if they won the lottery and could go anywhere.

Witty title (lemmy.today)

Steve harvey is a fucking piece of shit who hates atheist, is homophobic, encourages guys cheating, is sexist, advocates rape and thinks guys and girls can’t just be friends i am sure there is more than that but this is what i have found please feal free to tell me and i’ll add it

PopcornTin ,

Because I hate him, so you should too. This person is bad, don’t laugh at any jokes, don’t think he has anything positive to him in any way.

Also, I’m very open-minded, inclusive to all, etc.

PopcornTin ,

Also, in sports, there are no differences between men and women. Here, men can inflict more harm to women.

PopcornTin ,

Maybe don’t expect everyone to pay the same price for items, but according to each needs.

It’s not prejudice to hate whoever I hate because I am a good person.

Hobbies are tough to take deductions on. They want you to form an official business to take all the deductions. Report that income though, garage sales, Facebook market and the like as well.

Google apologizes for ‘missing the mark’ after Gemini generated racially diverse Nazis (www.theverge.com)

Google apologizes for ‘missing the mark’ after Gemini generated racially diverse Nazis::Google says it’s aware of historically inaccurate results for its Gemini AI image generator, following criticism that it depicted historically white groups as people of color.

PopcornTin ,

The issue seems to be the underlying code tells the ai if some data set has too many white people or men, Nazis, ancient Vikings, Popes, Rockwell paintings, etc then make them diverse races and genders.

What do we want from these AIs? Facts, even if they might be offensive? Or facts as we wish they would be for a nicer world?

PopcornTin ,

Because it reinforces our existing beliefs. Thus, it gets clicks.

In 2009, the nobel peace prize was given to someone for not being Bush. Same difference here.

He has a stutter! Stop shaming him because he doesn’t live up to your speaking privilege.

Biden Threatens to Veto Bill That Would Help Israel but Not Ukraine (www.nytimes.com)

President Biden vowed on Monday to veto a House Republican bill that would provide $17.6 billion in aid to Israel, calling it a “cynical political maneuver” intended to hurt the chances of passage for broader legislation that would provide money for Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan and the U.S. border....

PopcornTin ,

Invasion? That some racist talk right there. Give them a notice to appear in court in the next five years and leave them alone.

PopcornTin ,

That’s what the Schumer’s bill already was, which I guess Biden wants them to pass instead of separate single-issue bills. At least with separate bills, you could reject one or two and save billions.

PopcornTin ,

It’s real. It’s happening. FFS, put politics aside, this is a humanitarian issue. And how are we to absorb so many extra immigrants this year?

Easy, just don’t look. Then I don’t have to believe it exists.

It’s like the old sanctuary cities. Politicians pontificating that “all are welcome,” and “no human is illegal,” until their city actually gets too many of them. Then it’s, “whoa there, they should stay in Texas, not come here!”

PopcornTin ,

How many schools did you sample to come to this conclusion?

The shockwave will help keep you safe by moving you another 500 away from the epicenter.

Their next story: You cannot live without avocado toast, it’s a fact.

PopcornTin ,

That’s what I don’t understand. The item is using up warehouse space, marked for me, for five days. Surely they’d make more money just mailing it and restocking the item to sell more during those five days.
