Twitter will probably be banned in Brazil soon.

The minister of the Supreme Federal Court, Alexandre de Moraes (Conservative Judge that REALLY hates Bolsonaro and the Far-Right people), summoned via social media "X", formerly Twitter, to inform the name and qualifications of the new legal representative in the country, something that is mandatory. Otherwise, the social network may be taken offline in Brazil.

Alexandre de Moraes subpoenas Elon Musk and threatens to take X offline in 24 hours. Minister Alexadre de Moraes issued a subpoena against Elon Musk, and threatened to take X offline if the company doesn't comply with orders within 24 hours.

Justice Alexandre de Moraes, of the Federal Supreme Court (STF), issued a subpoena against the owner of X, Elon Musk. In the document released on Wednesday evening (28/8), the magistrate orders the company to identify a legal representative in Brazil within 24 hours, under penalty of taking the platform offline if the decision is not complied with.

Houthi-hit ship burning but still no oil spill: EU naval mission

The EU’s Red Sea naval mission Aspides reports that MV Sounion, the ship that was hit by a major Houthi attack, is still on fire but not spilling oil.

It said “multiple fires have been detected in several locations on the main deck of the vessel” but warships in the area have confirmed that “there’s no oil spill, and the ship is still anchored and not drifting.”

The Houthis said yesterday that they had agreed to allow the Sounion, which has been on fire since August 23, to be towed away from the area.

my friend from china uses hello talk, which is a languaga axchange app (basically you tutor each other), and this american dude asked to be tutored by her. the catch is, he doesn't know any chinese at all, and he kept being a weirdo, so she made him praise mao lol. she posted these screenshots on her WeChat moments:

Large Ukrainian convoy (dozens of what appear to be cargo/troop trucks) hit by multiple missiles in Sumy. Probably on the way to reinforce the Kursk (Cursed) offensive.

Please just give up already

The Brazilian and Colombian governments issued a joint statement saying that they "take notice" of Thursday's Supreme Court ruling (ratifying the electoral results) but that the publication of results broken down by voting center remains key for the "credibility" of the electoral process. Ended the statement by reiterating "total opposition" to ongoing unilateral sanctions against Venezuela

AMLO basically said the same thing. I think AMLO recently also told the US to fuck off, Mexico will continue trade with Cuba, and that the US embargo can't be enforced in Mexico because it's unconstitutional

Tulsi is now part of wet boy transition team. I must confess I had believed in her early in the 2020 primary, I thought she is a staunch antiwar candidate, she was pro Medicare for All, she is vegetarian, she supported Bernie in '16 and she hated Hillary. At the time there was an argument that Bernie might be too old for 2 terms, I thought Tulsi would be a decent alternative. I even donated $10 to her early campaign. Obviously, as the primary went on and I saw she didn't have a path to victory, I stopped supporting her and donated my labor to volunteer for Bernie instead.

Fuckin' hell, I didn't know she's part of an insane cult and drank one too many Joe Rogan griftoid alpha brain, now she's an anti-trans, anti-woke, chud.

Ukraine Will Soon have no other Choice then to retreat behind the River ( to not risk encirclement and to strenghten and shorten their defenses).

On 26th August, 2024, Denmark announced that it would be shutting down its embassies in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso and Bamako, Mali. But Copenhagen said it also intends to open three new ones - in Senegal, Rwanda and Tunisia. This is part of its new strategy in Africa, which includes appointing special representatives for the Sahel and the Great Lakes region of the continent. Denmark also wants to strengthen its presence within Egypt, Kenya, South Africa, Nigeria and Ghana.

ukraine attacked Kursk just to have the "Ukrainian Invasion of Russia" entry in some history books

Does anybody have any info/takes on free speech in the USSR? Particularly in the lead up to collapse? I was thinking about authoritarian crack downs on things like free speech, the recent thing with the Telegram guy, the arrest of various activists for nothing. And I understand there have always been infringements on these rights, assassinations, and all that. But lately it seems to be getting more blatant, rushed, and inconsistent.

Chud twitter is quating this with communism. On the left this sort of thing seems to be equated with fascism

But like, isn't this just a symptom of a panicked ruling class, narrative loss, and incoming collapse? Did something similar genuinely happen in the USSR, especially toward the end, or was it a complete western invention? This is a difficult thing to research because of course you're going to get propaganda from every angle.

I'm on 4 hours of sleep and 20 mg of gummies so I apologize if this was a stupid question

Thank you resistance trench, very cool

whats going on in the West Bank now?

Ukrainian sources saying that an F16 was shot down by Patriot Missile system friendly fire. The source is Ukrainian MP from Zelenskyy’s party, Mariana Bezuglaya.

She seems to be from the faction that is trying to pass bills to authorize execution of deserters and is constantly attacking Syrsky and other generals for being too weak on Russia.

Not sure if this is just another cope like “it crashed due to pilot error” to avoid giving any credit to Russians

Ukrainian F-16 Is Destroyed in Crash - Wall Street Journal, 29 August 2024

There was speculation that a Ukrainian F-16 pilot was killed during the Russian air raids on Monday, here is confirmation from the US. I am unable to archive the article due to the website's bot detection, so I'll post the entirety of it below.

A Ukrainian F-16 fighter jet was destroyed in a crash on Monday, according to a U.S. official, just weeks after the first of the American-made aircraft arrived in Ukraine.

Initial reports indicate the jet wasn’t shot down by enemy fire, although the incident occurred during a massive Russian missile barrage across the country on Monday, the official said. Rather, the crash was likely a result of pilot error. 

So that's now five F-16s left, and five (or four if the reports of the other F-16 pilot being killed are correct, Russian media reports striking two F-16s in a hangar in Western Ukraine) pilots left for Ukraine at the moment. And this is after just one sortie where the F-16s were used to intercept cruise missiles. The Ukrainian F-16s were not even exposed to enemy fire! I guess the pilots recieved inadequate training and were rushed to the defensive lines. Either that or Russia destroyed it while it was on the ground during the air raids. It was reported that Russia bombed one of the airfields where F-16 aircraft were suspected to be stationed at.

The Donbass front is progressing pretty rapidly. Looks like Ukraine has actually taken a lot out of it for their Kursk adventure.

How are Brazilians taking the Twitter ban? Are they throwing around accusations of communism and saying Lula is a dictator?

Small 5.3 earthquake in central-south portugal today, I happened to catch it because I woke up at 5:10 to urinate, so far no big damages.

Last big destructive earthquake was an 8 in 1969 and historically everyone learns about the 1755 on in school and some people have kind of a prepper "the next big one is coming" mentality because of it.

death to "israel"
