“This was a disgrace. This was a rigged trial by a conflicted judge who was corrupt. It’s a rigged trial, a disgrace. They wouldn’t give us a venue change. We were at 5% or 6% in this district, in this area. This was a rigged, disgraceful trial.”

I hope the judge takes his complete lack of contrition into account when sentencing. If Cohen did time, Trump should do time.

Everything I’ve seen from these traitor trash asshats suggests they’re bullies and cowards so I’m not sure I buy your lone wolf theory. They’re far more comfortable in a group where the opponent is outnumbered, that’s when they really show their colors.

IchNichtenLichten,
@IchNichtenLichten@lemmy.world avatar

I guess we’ll see. The examples you point to don’t seem numerous enough to potentially affect turnout though. Like I said, they’re cowards so they don’t attack large groups such as people waiting to vote.

If anything, the chances of a polling place getting attacked is significantly higher than normal.

I’m not really interested in arguing about hypotheticals, suffice to say that direct assaults on voters during an Election Day is far from common and I hope it says that way.

genocide it is not.

It wasn’t really in question when this was published back in October. It was genocide then and it continues to be genocide.

“The UN Genocide Convention lists five acts that fall under its definition. Israel is currently perpetrating three of these in Gaza: “1. Killing members of the group. 2. Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group. 3. Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part.””

Conservative Plan Calls for Dozens of Executions if Trump Wins (www.thedailybeast.com)

A conservative plan for Donald Trump’s potential transition into the presidency calls for dozens of prisoners to be executed, according to HuffPost. An 887-page plan by Project 2025, led by the ultra-conservative Heritage Foundation, says that if elected, Trump should make a concerted effort to execute the remaining 40...

it will just mean you don’t know what their enemy of the week is.

That doesn’t exactly sound like a negative to me.

I say they’re irrelevant because they have no experience in anything other than spreading propaganda to keep right wing idiots in a permanent state of fear and outrage. They argue in bad faith. They’re neither interesting nor insightful. They have no accomplishments. As people, they’re remarkably dull and uninteresting.

So again, why give them the attention they seek?

Why Ukraine Should Keep Striking Russian Oil Refineries (www.foreignaffairs.com)

Washington’s criticism is misplaced: attacks on oil refineries will not have the effect on global energy markets that U.S. officials fear. These s​trikes reduce Russia’s ability to turn its oil into usable products; they do not affect the volume of oil it can extract or export. In fact, with less domestic refining...

This helped me start to understand:

“HyperNormalisation is a 2016 BBC documentary by British filmmaker Adam Curtis. It argues that governments, financiers, and technological utopians have, since the 1970s, given up on trying to model the complex “real world” and instead established a simplified “fake world” for the benefit of corporations and kept stable by neoliberal governments around the world. The film was released on 16 October 2016 on BBC iPlayer.”

“The causes aren’t clear, but one study found that 65% of people with the condition previously had measles or mumps – compared with the US national average of 15%.

A separate study found the measles and mumps vaccines helped protect against developing the condition. An interesting finding, if confirmed, given that RFK Jr. is a noted vaccine sceptic.”

Russia threatens Britain with retaliation if involvement in Ukraine war deepens (www.pbs.org)

They could deploy their only aircraft carrier, that’ll show ‘em.

Oh, wait, never mind.

“The ship has been out of service and in repairs since 2018. The repair process has been hampered by accidents, embezzlement of funds, and other setbacks. After the floating drydock PD-50 sank in Kola Bay (Murmansk) in an accident that killed one worker in October 2018, the ship was towed to Sevmorput Yard No 35. In another mishap in December 2019, a major fire killed at least one worker and injured ten others. In June 2022, the ship was transferred to a drydock at the 35th Ship Repair Plant in Murmansk, where it remained until February 2023. The current projection is that repairs will be completed and the ship will be transferred back to the Russian Navy sometime in 2024, however this may be pushed back to 2025 if issues arise during overhaul and testing”

Well said. Like Democracy Now there’s bias in the choices of what stories to report on but the reporting itself is accurate.

@IchNichtenLichten@lemmy.world avatar

What you are saying is its ok for a news organization to push one side of a story, report only stories that support their views, use language that makes it seem more urgent and serious than it actually is, and this is a reputable organization that should be listed to?

To a greater or lesser degree, all news orgs do this.

IchNichtenLichten,
@IchNichtenLichten@lemmy.world avatar

Effectively, that it’s more important your views are confirmed than you are informed and accurate.

Who is saying that though? I’m certainly not.
