The thing that is specifically resonant about the 60 MINUTES incident is how many online versions of the report were recorded on cell phones etc, similar to how Soviet samizdat were often printed on illicit homemade or obsolete presses, lending them a characteristic janky print quality.
I kept seeing people use the word samizdat to refer to the Canadian sourcing of the 60 Minutes report on CECOT pulled by Bari Weiss. Here's the definition from Merriam-Webster:

So apparently there are many Epstein files on the DOJ website where you can highlight the redacted text, copy it, and paste it onto another document to read the redactions

Labour politicians saying Reform led council should scrap bus lanes because they "are just money making".

They really are just idiots at this point. I'm done hearing excuses for the Labour Party.

"I had planned to send [the children] to boarding school, since their education at the moment seems to consist mostly of marching around Salzburg singing scales. I think it would have been particularly helpful for the eldest daughter, who seems intent on losing her virginity to the mailman."

Read the article and yuh tracks from personal experience with bullying

There was no evidence or proof of the bullying, and they assumed she was just lying because in the words of the principal, "Kids lie a lot, they lie about all kinds of things."

Bias against victims of bullying due to ageism.

Bari’s complaint was “there’s nothing new here” and while that’s untrue it’s also irrelevant

“we intentionally sent people to be tortured in a hellhole and bragged about it and The Hague is too good for everyone involved” is a story that simply cannot be told enough

Bless everyone who maintains the tools to download video files from proprietary players.
Multiple social media users noticed on Monday that the 60 Minutes episode was available via the Global TV app. To view the episode, viewers need to connect to the app from a Canadian IP address.

People then uploaded copies of the episode to a variety of file sharing sites and services.

the anti-semitic Charlie Kirk conspiracy theories spreading like wildfire seems to have sparked a genuine panic among MAGA conservatives that the brand has turned so rancid, combined with, by and large, a complete inability to acknowledge that this was an inevitable result of the movement.

When the Vice President has to be like "I love you all, whether you think the Jews did it or not," you may have some things to work through as a movement.

Now, a few months later, the murder and its aftermath have not only failed to be the galvanizing moment the right thought they had in their hands, it's become an out-of-control engine tearing them apart. You hate to see it!

The histrionics over the reaction to Kirk's murder, including the total failure to crush Jimmy Kimmel and the embarrassing attempt to retroactively make Kirk an admirable public figure and martyr, was I think a signal moment when you could see MAGA's slow decay start to accelerate.

I love that nobody that brings this shit up as a news story will ever bring up the Why She Was Fired. She was fired for being trans in Oklahoma so that a white woman that wears a foundation two shades darker than her skin can have a job as a hatefluencer. Malpractice from the chicken shit media

a slightly different angle but I found out that a few archives around LA had old books bound in human skin so I did a story about unusually bound books and of course I had to go look at and touch them all. My favorite was a copy of "Moby Dick" in whale dick skin
I think we need a mega thread of everyone's craziest archive stories.

I just want people who aren't terminally online to know that the Fallout community is currently ripping itself apart because the TV show fans are making fun of game fans for 'injecting their OCs into everything.' Every single mainline Fallout game forces you at gunpoint to make an OC.
