7·1 day agoThe same people who say of Denmark and Greenland, “The fact that they had a boat land there 500 years ago doesn’t mean that they own the land.”
The fascists want people to die off. It’s part of their master-race/eugenics program. Nothing they do makes sense as an attempt to help regular people, but a lot of it makes sense if the goal is to cull the population.

7·2 days agoI think these people are have an insatiable appetite for controlling and dominating others and enjoy the cruelty of it and the feeling of power. In their public lives it leads them to become ruthless and manipulative exploiters, and in their private lives it leads them to become ruthless and manipulative exploiters.

It goes along with all the attempts to ban or backdoor encryption including VPNs. They want to read every message and know who sent it and to whom.

News@lemmy.world•Cuba warns airlines that it will be out of fuel for planes in 24 hours
11·3 days agoThe fuel is unavailable because the USA illegally invaded Venezuela and stole all its oil, and because the USA is trying to break Cuba through an illegal blockade. And Maduro didn’t “decline”: the USA kidnapped him. The article takes great care to describe the consequences of the USA’s illegal actions without mentioning the USA.

World News@lemmy.world•Cuba warns airlines that it will be out of fuel for planes in 24 hoursEnglish
135·3 days agoThe lack of aviation fuel is a direct consequence of the deterioration of Cuba’s energy system, exacerbated by the disruption of external supplies and the regime’s inability to ensure stable imports. For years, Cuba relied on oil from Venezuela for much of its energy consumption, a supply that has been interrupted following Nicolás Maduro’s decline.
What’s with this wording? The fuel is unavailable because the USA illegally invaded Venezuela and stole all its oil, and because the USA is trying to break Cuba through a blockade. And Maduro didn’t “decline”: the USA kidnapped him. It is the USA doing all of this.

News@lemmy.world•Ice director wants to run deportations like ‘Amazon Prime for human beings’
16·5 days agoThe head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement said he would like the agency to implement a system of trucks that rounds up immigrants for deportation in a system similar to how Amazon delivers packages around the US.
I guess the USA doesn’t have a very good railway system.
“We need to get better at treating this like a business,” the acting Ice director, Todd Lyons, said. He said that he wanted to see a deportation process “like [Amazon] Prime, but with human beings”. His comments were first reported by the Arizona Mirror.
…
Several speakers, Homan included, echoed the opinion of having a deportation system that is run like a business, with assurance that the Trump administration is depending on the private sector for completion of its mass deportation agenda. Many representatives from the military-industrial complex were in attendance.
It does present plenty of business opportunities.
He expressed hopes that the agency could utilize artificial intelligence to “free up bed space” and “fill up airplanes”, allowing Ice to deport immigrants at a quicker pace.
They want to run it with industrial efficiency so they can keep freeing up those beds.
The Ice director also said that he has been working with Elon Musk’s “department of government efficiency” (Doge) for access to social security numbers to look for “voter fraud”.
Now why would they be demanding lists of voters from every state and discussing this in the same breath as the industrial scale rounding up of undesirable people?

News@lemmy.world•An AI startup founder says he's planning a 'March for Billionaires' in protest of California's wealth tax
9·5 days agoThe ongoing outrage over the proposed tax is a little funny, given that it’s already been known for quite some time that the legislation has almost no chance of being enacted. That’s because California Governor Gavin Newsom has already stated that, should the bill somehow pass, he would veto it.
That’s not funny. But the billionaires should still march. They might be surprised how many people will gladly come and help march them through the streets.

“Hakeem Jeffries makes a speech in a few days in NYC I cannot allow this terrorist to live … I will kill him for the future,” the text messages read, according to the complaint.
These people think Hakeem Jeffries is a terrorist and ICE are not. They have a chronic and apparently incurable case of wrong-about-every-damn-thing.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump shares racist image of the Obamas. White House says backlash is 'fake outrage'
1·6 days agoI have spent almost my whole life outside the USA myself, and though I saw these things in American movies etc., I wasn’t really aware of how little Americans know about what’s going on in the world, and how tilted all the information they consume is, in school and in the general culture, until I spent some time living in the USA. You make a good point though, and I wasn’t the most perceptive.
















I agree about not falling into their usage of the words. But I think she is using MAGA’s language here to make fun of them.
