Apologies to all who my be frustrated by an occasional apparent typo. I use an AI keyboard without which I couldn't use my phone. It takes liberties: hallucination is the term. Of becomes or because of a probability. Aaahh! Me too. Fight it? We're going to lose this war anyhow.

Thats complete rubbish. I use it and never see anything of the kind.

@europa Bluesky is a cesspool of far-left extremism, leftist disinformation, leftist political violence, and CSAM. There is NO moderation there or on Mastodon, with calls for killing political opponents and celebrations of assassinations or attempts. These are European values it seems.

@europa What’s fascinating to me is how obviously they want to make “thought crime” a real thing. In Europe it seems like there are no natural rights, and all rights come directly from the government.

What a shame to turn an important discussion into an attmpted arm-twist by bullies who cant be bothered to sit down and talk honestly.

@europa The only toxicity comes from the EU itself. Social media isn’t mandatory for anyone. If you don’t like it, just don’t access it. Back off, bunch of unelected, corrupt dictators that make Russia, China and North Korea look like Disneyland.

Europe contains atl east five major colonial powers with a stinking history of bullying that seems in some cases to lie just out of sight. We all knew that and know that. It is indeed, why the union was such an important project and is no less important today. Every country in Europe should see EU membership as the most important aspect of their national security as well as key to their economic future. Is it not worth working a bit harder on democracy for a prize of that magnitude.

In a way, Musk is to blame for this mess in Europe. Continuous abuse of democracy in Europe by powering up the arguments that Musk or his friends or bosses ( who cares the arrangement) want heard and hiding the important arguments has been a feature of X. The problem for Europeans and those joining or rejoining, is that VDL looks nothing more than Jealous of the power of X and wants it all for herself.

These suggestions are the same ones I put forward months ago as the obvious options. What Ive never seen and neither has anyone I have doscussed this with, is the definition of "Problem Domain", i.e. what precisely do they want to achieve? Asking people to decide on such an enormous risk their personal soverignty without being open about their goal is flat wrong. Even if they manage to get a yes out of it, its not a legitimate agrement. Worrying for EU members and potential members is how very Gestao like all of this feels. I'm afraid it had to be said. We,ve seen TV footage. Britain is no better.

🇪🇺 The EU has published a document examining the feasibility of forcing the merger of US owned social media companies such as X with more EU friendly companies like BlueSky and Mastodon. BlueSky was singled out as having a moderation system that could be forced across multiple platforms, with the report repeating claims that its approach combats “toxic” elements. The report also suggests forcing platforms to allow third-party “moderation” systems to access their digital infrastructure, which would enable enhanced censorship. Follow: @europa

@BowesChay It seems very much as though his big challenge is to keep the war going and hence the funds flowing. My problem is not with Zelensky, we all know what motivates this little crook, the big question is, what precisely, is the EU up to?

The number of signatories on the rejected petition is equivilent roughly half of the Jewish voting population of UK. The question is about why this tiny population has more infleunce on UK government that nearly 60 million British voters. Does anyone see the irony?
JayEnAar@GorwayGlobal

The UK Government has rejected a Peition that reached the required level of public support to trigger a parliamentary debate. The Labour Govt will not hold an inquiry. Obviously, for it might reveal the unwelcome truth

Yes, as it stands, WEF has grown into a monster that I even doubt many of its memebrs appreciate. There's nothing wrong with holding discussions and publishing op-eds,etc, but these guys have gradually asumed control of the globe and hold sufficient power via their mebership to make it happen. Urgent action is definitely required.

When theyre involved in government too long, thet reinvent democracy into something very nondemocratic snd it'd often donr in order to solve sn immediate problem that needs solving. That doesnt make it any less a crime against democracy and the people who put you there.

🤔 John Kerry says free speech must be stamped out so the right people can be elected who will then impose necessary changes on American society and the world at large.

This the key to Animal Farm. Give it to them and youll be locked up n the farm witin a year. You say OK heres my key, or you say no, come to me with each proposition and I'll decide on merit. The latter way means that citizens remain soveriegn. "remain", thats right. You are sovereign right now, but agree to Digital ID and you give up that sovereignty.

Macron: "We are experiencing the cost of our overdependence on American defense" True. As Europeans, we must achieve real defense autonomy and reinforce European nuclear deterrence It requires time, but it is necessary. Otherwise, we will never hold our destiny in our own hands

This is insane. EWhat makes these people imagine that the US can do what we cant. I gave them Facebook in 2002 and installed in Local authorites in UK but they couldnt see the future in it. I was working on AI in 2005 when they defunded the NGO and closed it down. Tech is not that hard, there are billionaires in te Valley selling stuff we could have found on Open source sites and tidied up. Its not tech skills thats a problem, its bloody attitude.

🤡 Oh well done taxpayers!! … Over £50 MILLION of your tax money is being handed to foreign tech firms and US venture capital funds through the Quango called ARIA (advanced research and innovation agency) The UK public receives nothing in return, we don’t get shares or guaranteed returns. So we take the risk and private equity companies get all the upside. This is stakeholder capitalism at its finest LOL! Also called wealth transfer…. YOURS!

Iraq is not an uncivilised place, and most Iraqis are calm and civilised. We have to take into account what has been done to Iraqis by NATO and the impact on an individual when we judge their current behaviour. Many who helped NATO were then abandoned to be slaughtered by the other side and forced to migrate despite being promised asylum etc. Rape and abuse by western soldiers was very common. That doesnt make any bad behaviour OK and it has to be dealt with.

“Six different types of semen were found on her or in her” The whole family had used her as a piece of white Meat. This a family of Wrong Uns but does it go deeper than that? Do they come from a nation of Wrong Uns or perhaps they belong to a religion of Wrong Uns? What I do know, is that our Women and Kids are paying for it, the trauma of a rape can’t be undone by catching the people who did it, punishment of the offender won’t stop the memories of what took place for the victims We need to do a lot better. We’ve already got 1000s of victims of these ideologists in the Uk , we failed them and we’re continuing to fail them and the other gentle folk of the uk. People who have no idea of what evil is are being sucked up and abused by monsters and we’re letting it happen ! Help me, spread the word and get ready to fight, civil disobedience seems to work for the foreigners, maybe it’ll work for Us! This is a strangled account, Your repost matters

@Bigsoda007 And replace it with MK2, an EU that offers both federation and membership of a trading union dependng on your choice. Everybody gets choice and for those willing to join a federation, there's direct democratic control from day to day.

"protecting the children" How hilarious would it be, if not so infuriating and sad, that the people who want us to accept a Digital ID , effectively a lock for our prison cells, on the premise of "protecting the children", can't find the time to bring Epstein, Trump and all the other monsters to justice for historically well docuemnted crimes against children.
thebridger.co.uk@etaaffe

Does this sound like a society concerned about the welfare of children? Dont accept Digital ID. @4592d67c64b546b/digital-id-with-a-twist-4ba41a9541e4" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@4592d67c64b54
