The truth is, “Antifa” is any American who dares stand up against this tyrannical administration. It’s a threat to their power (aka their bank accounts). And that’s the “organization” they are working hard to stop.
GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing
BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?
GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now
THOMPSON: What does that mean?

Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”.
If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.

It is newsworthy that the president of the United States is increasingly verbally abusive of women reporters and he should be asked about it.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

My ranking of pies:

3. pecan
4. french silk
5. strawberry rhubarb
6. cherry
7. blueberry
I get seriously distressed when I think I’ve got a piece of pumpkin pie in front of me only to find out it’s actually sweet potato.

If the above are unavailable in some tragic circumstance and blueberry is there, I'll eat it but unenthusiastically.

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.
Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

The collateral damage is caused by not knowing what city or nation an account is located also serves the elite and powerful, who have full weaponized social media as a tool in the net war.

The reason why platform companies do make it hard to find account location information is not because they believe in privacy, it's so that advertisers do not know how much is lost to low-tier engagement.
