Citizen Journalist Gonzalo Lira SPEAKS OUT About His Arrest in #Ukraine

A German journalist, Thomas Rapper, is present at the International Public Tribunal for #Ukraine conference and gives his thoughts.
Despite disclaimers that logs from learning management platforms Canvas and Blackboard should not be used to identify cheating, schools are still misusing them. They should remove any marks on any student records that were based on these misinterpretations.https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2022/04/canvas-and-other-online-learning-platforms-arent-perfect-just-ask-students

You were talking about Musk and censorship. I gave you an example of such censorship, so of course it has something to do with your subjective criteria.
In terms of Trans women in high-end sports. You're on very shaky ground, as testosterone reduction still gives the edge to the converted man, due to musculature and bone density and size. I'll post the article where the doctors in that type of research argue this. You see I do my research, and don't do 'knee-jerk' reactions or try not to.
And … it really is common sense, especially when one sees the individual I'm talking about. He/she is literally huge!
If trans women wish to compete in sport, it should be a separate category in my opinion.
@takloufer There are many 'thin-skinned people in the world. If I were you, I'd worry more about the disinformation and propaganda the EU is selling you folks in the MSM.
Many liberals (I'm left leaning) can't stand other viewpoints, therefore they want others censured. I've been alive long enough to see it everywhere.
One example, 'Trans women'.
Anyone with half a brain would realize that trans woman competing against women born as women in sport, isn't fair.
Yet the US swim team has allowed this to happen. A previous individual who was born male was on the male swim team previously, and never placed anywhere near the top rankings ever.
Yet, competing against women, he comes in 1st. The other women, who placed 2nd, 3rd, and fourth, were not impressed.
Now my point is, that on many social platforms just mentioning this will have you censured for 'hate speech' which it isn't.
Just defies common sense! And yes I was censured on a different Mastodon instance for posting a documentary about the same subject!
If Musk means censorship like this needs to stop, then I don't have a problem with his viewpoint at all. Finally some sanity in the world.

Russia’s state-run energy company #gazprom cuts gas supplies to Poland and Bulgaria
Russian energy giant Gazprom said on Wednesday it halted gas supplies to Bulgaria and Poland for failing to pay for gas in roubles.
Gazprom also warned that transit via the two countries, which host pipelines supplying Germany, Hungary and Serbia, would be cut if gas was taken illegally.
Separately, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Russian “special services” are behind a series of blasts in a pro-Russian breakaway region of Moldova.

@freemo I'm getting some '500' errors. Had several just now whilst reading the timeline.

Man, that typeface if hard to read. Guess I'm a normie. LOL
@efiore
It takes time and IMHO entirely worth it here. Use hashtags to find your genre of interest. Who knows, you might find more intelligent discourse on the Federation. There's more than Mastodon users on it.
@takloufer
Actually, the point is that Twitter hasn't had 'Free Speech' for some time, so WiTH is everyone upset about? It's ridiculous from my PoV.
