anyone find it weird that when there was discourse about why the government massacred native Hawaiians we suddenly have to talk about Israel again instead

There was a time in this country when redistricting happened once every ten years. Not in North Carolina since 2011. The latest batch of maps from the GOP coven dropped late Wednesday.

Either is fine.

Disinformation is a tool of war. And if you told me I would be doing image analysis two years ago, nuts. Now it’s a tool I use to do my job

A billboard that said, “Hamas would chop your head off, too,” sparked more than 100 complaints and was taken down. The group that sponsored it, JewBelong, is known for defamatory ads that equate opposition to Zionism with antisemitism. https://www.nj.com/news/2023/10/anti-hamas-billboard-on-nj-highway-taken-down-after-multiple-complaints-to-police.html

"As negotiator for my group, many of the organisations mentioned in the report, which call themselves child protection organisations or victims’ associations, also contacted me. But I had no idea that the pro-chat control campaign was being orchestrated and funded by a network of organisations linked to the tech industry and security services, drawing millions in funding from a US-led foundation and paying foreign consulting agencies to create lobbying strategies. I had previously only expected corporations to use such methods of ‘capturing legislation’."

A hot take, but a real one - I’ve found that over the last week or two, Threads has become an essential tool for keeping up with both the crisis in the Middle East, as well as the US House speaker race.

Mastodon is great, and its both the first feed and the last feed I check during the day, but its just been missing the sources of news and commentary I’ve been looking for during these world events; I wish that weren’t the case, but it is. #meta

I'm in the US, shopping for my holiday season "adopted" seniors, and could use some recommendations.

Can anyone point me to a socially responsible company for online purchases of good quality sheets and/or blankets? At a minimum I want a company that doesn't donate to Republicans and isn't known to be anti-union.

This is a limited quantity purchase, so price isn't really an issue.
