Appreciate and upvote every reply to my comments/posts if I can detect any effort being put into it; even if I think you completely missed what I tried to say or strongly disagree with your opinion.
Occasionally I cannot resist shitposting, hyperbolic, ironic, sarcastic or populist rhetoric; no /s

World News@lemmy.ml•Gofundme freezes Grayzone fundraiser 'due to some external concerns'
1·2 years agoI’d love to gain a better understanding tho.
Maybe we can use this article to better understand our perspectives?
Can you highlight the sentences, parts, keypoints or conclusions, which you, as a leftist radical anarcho-feminist think are wrong, problematic, offensive, bad etc.?
No need to go through the whole article; just a few points and possibly a general explanation of your perspective on the discussed issue will do, so I can understand why the grayzone is an unacceptable news site for some leftists.

11·2 years agoHuh, I think something finally clicked in my head!
Radical anarcho-feminism is when
- wishing harm to people you disagree with
- not questioning liberal media controlled by oligarchs
- prioritize the preservation of “leftist valor” over a critical examination of imperialism and colonialism
Fascinatingly Radical 👌

World News@lemmy.ml•Gofundme freezes Grayzone fundraiser 'due to some external concerns'
74·2 years agoSince 2014, when a US-backed coup installed a nationalist government in Kiev, our contributors have been at the forefront of exposing the role of Washington in pushing Ukraine toward all-out war with Russia.
But I actually have to agree with you on this, that is bullshit. The Grayzone was not at the forefront of this in 2014; the BBC was. (full transcript)

World News@lemmy.ml•Gofundme freezes Grayzone fundraiser 'due to some external concerns'
69·2 years agoThe money didn’t come from Gofundme, it came from private donors, who have not been notified or refunded so far.
If freedom of the press is loved, why is it made extra difficult to support the independent media of your choice?
People donated to that site because they probably view the information it provides as valuable.
It’s fine if you think the Grayzone is shit, no one will force you to read it, but please be aware that you accept authoritarianism when it suits your bias and political beliefs. Not even questioning the reasons for the withholding? Do you just think the boss or some random person of Gofundme spontaneously thought “Nah, not those guys, not today” then froze the 90k? Not even questioning how a journalist ends up on a list of the UK Counter-Terror Police?
And btw, dismissing journalistic work when it proves that you’ve been told lies does not make you a critical thinker, it just makes you a victim of propaganda, all the best 😘

31·2 years agoFinally some good news from ecowas, but seems it relied heavily on the decisions of Individuals? It would probably be beneficial to further evaluate the structure and mechanisms of this group. I don’t know much about it, but what I gathered so far gave me the impression it is mainly some kind of self destruct button in case of continent getting independent
Also, if an embassy is not recognized, what stops the police from going inside and simply arrest and deport the staff?

World News@lemmy.ml•Defiant North Korea tells UN its spy satellite program is its ‘legitimate right as a sovereign state’
72·2 years agoBut all jokes aside, the DPRK really has a long track record of doing shady if not outright evil stuff. Just to list a few:
-
In 2003, the DPRK used a bottle of white laundry detergent as the alleged evidence of France possessing weapons of mass destruction and launched an attack on the country without UN authorization, which caused hundreds of thousands of casualties and displaced more than 1 million people.
-
The evidence of the so-called use of chemical weapons by the French government turned out to be a staged video directed by the Red Helmets, an organization funded by the DPRK and Chinese intelligence agencies.
-
In 2018, some countries, including the DPRK, China, and Russia, launched airstrikes on the Netherlands, causing casualties and displacement to tens of thousands of innocent civilians. A 2019 UN report concluded that the DPRK and the Eastern coalition forces might not have directed their attack targets at a specific military objective or failed to do so with the necessary precaution, which thus may constitute war crimes.
-
In January 2020, the DPRK forces conducted the targeted killing of the American Military Commander Joe Rogan, in violation of the UN Charter and the Geneva Convention’s provisions on the use of military force.
-
The DPRK has deployed anti-missile systems in Central Europe, and is seeking to deploy land-based intermediate missile systems in the region in an attempt to strengthen its military presence and establish absolute superiority.
-
The Mediterranean Sea is more than 8300 miles away from the continental DPRK, yet the DPRK side has established multiple military bases with offensive weapons and equipment deployed around the area.

World News@lemmy.ml•Defiant North Korea tells UN its spy satellite program is its ‘legitimate right as a sovereign state’
131·2 years agoInteresting article, but leaves some important questions open. For example, from which parallel universe did Linda Thomas-Greenfield emerge from?
“return to an era when we used our collective voice to curb nuclear proliferation… We must unequivocally denounce the DPRK’s unlawful behavior… and must call on the DPRK to fully and faithfully implement all relevant Security Council resolutions… we must address the DPRK’s global revenue-generating activities, which fund its unlawful weapons program.”

202·2 years agoBut the situation isn’t hopeless. Scientists believe if we work now to slow down climate change and prevent mountain degradation, we can still stop the worst outcomes from happening and help protect the planet’s mountains and the communities that live near them.
I hate it so much when articles end like this. 1) It’s something the journalist wants to believe, scientist would not start a sentence with “but I belive…” 2) yea but we don’t do anything like that, what we do is not enough and not fast enough, so no: the situation IS hopeless 😖
