We really should let Steve Bannon know that Ireland is so woke, that we have an entire year in school devoted to transitioning.

Maybe the reason the Fash never seem to do as well here, is because we have already had enough of hypocritical authoritarians dressed in black.

What creepy nonsense are companies up to when they try to guess your age or take your ID for age verification? www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...
So, You’ve Hit an Age Gate. What Now?
EFF is against age gating and age verification mandates, and we hope we’ll win in getting existing ones overturned and new ones prevented. But mandates are already in effect, and every day many

Last year, we made the decision to step away from X.
The Royal Irish Academy is committed to creating, convening, and sharing knowledge for the public good and as an organisation we value Independence; Integrity; Curiosity; Openness and Rigour.
In our view, X no longer aligns with these values

Good news on the X illegal images problem. The Cabinet is to meet in emergency session tomorrow, and is expected to increase the fine for “Wanton misuse of a mechanical difference engine” from 6d to a full Half Crown!

Is this the most dangerous piece of "Cycling Infrastructure" in Dublin? Especially given that a few meters to the left of this picture is an open public space that could accommodate a cycle path.

When Fascists are taking over a country, they will create a loyal shadow paramilitary force, as they cannot be sure of the loyalty of the existing police or military, e.g. The Blackshirts in Italy or the Sturmabteilung in Germany.
ICE is the start of that force for the Fascists in the USA.

Elon Musk claims that stopping CSAM and Revenge Porn on Gr0k is against "Free Speech". Oddly Elon has no problems with removing videos showing Tesla FSD failing/nearly killing people.
X also complies with requests from Authoritarian governments to remove material and block civil rights activity.

To add to the Hell on Earth Elon Musk is creating, Gr0k is powered by a mixture of Gas and Diesel turbines. The emissions are poisoning the residents of Memphis, and putting massive amounts of CO2 and other pollutants into the atmosphere.

If someone was running a physical notice board, in let's say a shop, and CSAM was being posted there, how long would it take for the Police to haul in the notice board owner for questioning?

There are two sides to the whole Gr0k illegal images debate. On one side there is the CSAM and on the other side is the Revenge Porn.

All because he's in the Epstein/Trump files. What a world.

For anyone hoping there will be a democratic transition in Venezuela, sorry to burst your bubble, but this will be a corporate government, who's main purpose will be to safeguard private interests. Expect social programs to be cut and corporate tax to be minimised.
