My foreign interference

Your authoritarian stomping on freedom of speech

Let me get this straight. Public universities (including the University of Minnesota, UT Austin, and others) are private property, despite receiving billions in government funding?

Surely, then, your fact checkers will mention the NYT's failure of reporting on Iraq's WMDs in their fact checks?

Oh. They don't? I wonder why.

These are some of the most important and impactful stories since 2000. If the NYT can't keep their journalism robust for these, what does it say about everything else?

Oh wait, we already know: "Palestinian family collides with bullet discharged from Israeli weapon"

Literally any outlet that doesn't spin bullshit sources to justify warmongering?

Any outlet that doesn't get an ex-IDF official to write an article on Israel's war against Palestine?

Just basic journalistic integrity.

Subjugation like... By applying the same standard to ethnic minorities that they do to the Han majority? People don't realize how far affirmative action in China used to go. There were protests against it. Weibo kept exploding complaining about it.

World War 3: Middle East proxy war

[-] intelshill@lemmy.ca 7 points 10 months ago

President Biden's decision to launch air strikes on the Houthis has won him some praise from Republicans in Congress, but also criticism from some fellow Democrats.

US Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell said: "I welcome the US and coalition operations against the Iran-backed Houthi terrorists responsible for violently disrupting international commerce in the Red Sea and attacking American vessels. President Biden’s decision to use military force against these Iranian proxies is overdue."

Roger Wicker, the top Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, said "this strike was two months overdue, but it is a good first step toward restoring deterrence in the Red Sea".

On the Democrat side, California representative Ro Khanna said: "The President needs to come to Congress before launching a strike against the Houthis in Yemen and involving us in another Middle East conflict. That is Article 1 of the Constitution. I will stand up for that regardless of whether a Democrat or Republican is in the White House."

That criticism was echoed by Democrat representative Mark Pocan from Wisconsin, who said: "The United States cannot risk getting entangled into another decades-long conflict without Congressional authorization. The White House must work with Congress before continuing these air strikes in Yemen".

China is also blasting through their Paris commitments like they're nothing. It's actually absurd how much they're going to beat their Paris commitments by.

Even as China builds new supercritical coal plants, they're tanking utilization of existing coal plants to the point where peak fossil fuel use (according to the IEA) could happen THIS YEAR.
