oh, somehow it’s georestricted? dafuq… Anyways better links/sources are available in the other reply.
What I meant to say was that site gives qatar’s views on everything, and have a vested interest in making it look like the west is completely unable to recognize gaza and such
But the Western nations, who engineered the settler-colony currently occupying Palestine, is incapable of recognizing Palestine. All the recent news about the West recognizing Palestine aren’t actually in any way meaningful when A) they’ve propped up and maintained the settler-colony for decades and continue to do so, while also recognizing the Euroanglo-Zionazi settler-colony that they themselves manufactured and B) the recognition itself is under the condition that Hamas is dissolved or anything to that effect.
No research, no right to speak.
Tell us exactly where Al Jazeera is wrong, tell us exactly what an unbiased news outlet is like and what an unbiased view of Palestine is supposed to be. No research, no right to speak.
nobody is arrested unless they commit an actual crime [in Fr*\nce]
Is using the word “intifida” a criminal act and therefore should be followed up with an arrest?
I don’t know how you claim to see Pro Palestine protests and activism but don’t even know half the shit that the Fr*\nch state carries out under the banner of “protecting democracy”, and also somehow have the guts to claim China doesn’t have the conception of Right to Protest. No research, no right to speak.
liberation.fr and lemonde are news sites that are pro-palestine
These “news sites” use the terms “war on Gaza” and “Israel-Hamas War/Conflict” to pretend as if it’s a playing-level field of two equally matching opposing militaries and to downplay genocide. They are also owned by bougies whose shared material interest is keeping the settler-colony alive. No research, no right to speak.
Citations needed on the Hong Kong stuff. Championing universalizing ideals of “both the West and China are equally imperialistic and bad” is a reaction so meek, so infantile, that it doesn’t actually ideologically and materially go against Western hegemony or imperialism. Therefore, by also considering the other things you’ve opined, it makes you a lib.
No research, no right to speak.
What do you mean by “the article no longer exists”? What is an unbiased news outlet? What is an unbiased view of Palestine? What is the response of the Fr*nch state to “every goddamn french protest”? Which political parties and news sites in Fr*nce are Pro Palestine and why might that be deemed a problem? What is the “treatment of Uyghurs” that is denouncable and what are the Hong Kong activists doing that need to be defended? And defending against who?
And why are you lib?
If indicators or labels are used to rank Certified Bad Countries at the bottom (read: US State Department stamped list of countries tha the US is threatened by) and white countries at the top, then surely something somewhere has gone amiss, no?
Literally all of these rankings are created by Western imperial countries, whose economies are held up by robbing the freedoms of the Global South, that continue to uphold one of their many sacred democratic rituals of suppressing Pro-Palestinian liberation protests, and then some.
- Pro-Palestine activists are under attack in Europe
- Censorship in Europe: Major Palestinian news channels banned on Telegram
- Police send file on British independent journalist Richard Medhurst to Crown Prosecution Service
- Switzerland releases, deports Palestinian American journalist Ali Abunimah
- Louisiana immigration judge orders Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil deported to Syria or Algeria
goes to show anything tech coming out of US, EU and its client states are not ever trustworthy… I would go as far as to e.g. not buy a Bosch fridge, never mind the other reasons not to.
You’re taking the USA as an example
So? How is it not comparable to other Western countries? The original post already fucking exemplifies why censorship is a staple of the West, not just the US. Swear to god libs like you don’t actually have an argument to make and resort to moving goalposts to make up for it:
etc. etc.
Sure, it is, but my point is that it’s less restricted.
And that point is pointless because “less” restrictions only apply to small groups of people.
That’s just a massive lie. Notice how organized groups like the AfD, the National Rally, Renaissance etc… still exist but any smaller scale organization of people that threatens imperialism get squashed ASAP:

Saying such things as “bad arabs/muslims are dirty terrorist scum and need to be wiped off the map these russian orcs need to be wiped off the planet” would clearly get you in trouble
[citations needed]. I assure you that the most “trouble” libs faced was a slap on the wrist.
🤣 thanks for exposing yourself as nothing but a vibes-based liberal. Hasn’t even produced a single shred of evidence either.
I just have this feeling like you get persecuted for speaking against the government in countries like China, whereas you need to be a strong figure to have the same fate in other countries.
I have no data and this is just a feeling.
We can learn and take away a lot from this vibes-based, “democracy” virtue-signaling analysis, but not about the topic at hand.
This is still a cool way to downplay the West’s imperial staple of suppressing activism, engages in revisionism and amplifies everything that helps liberalism, all while accusing everyone outside the imperial core of doing so (or doing worse) as well, the statement along the lines of “does worse” doesn’t mean anything when you recognize that it’s a Western idea fully embraced and embroidered by the West that is insurpassable/incomparable to any other form of censorship.
Freedom of speech is a meaningless concept, especially so for anyone that’s not white, when you can’t actually criticize EU/US/KKKommonwealth countries within these countries meaningfully without fear of losing your job, your house, your visa (this is exacerbated for foreigners, often not talked about) or your life.

Your “freedom” to “speech” and “democracy” are constrained within a clearly drawn boundary, the boundary of which is drawn by the ruling class.
Any other country outside the West engaging in censorship is either a) a dog of the West or b) protecting itself from fully succumbing into being a dog of the West.
Notice how a Westerner does not risk anything by truly believing in and expressing things like “china censorship bad arabs/muslims are dirty terrorist scum and need to be wiped off the map these russian orcs need to be wiped off the planet”, but a non-Westerner risks absolutely everything by even slightly hinting at a criticism towards Western imperialism/wanting better conditions at the cost of the ruling class, perhaps even in their own damn fucking country, this is where point a) comes in to play.
When it comes to China, they fall squarely in b):

Once you understand the asymmetry, it becomes a lot clearer why the “both sides” argument is just a feeble attempt at minimizing Western imperialism.
well said, i wish eurolibs would get this through their head, but i’m wishing for too much

The developer claims the tool is for cops, but anyone can sign up and use it for targeted harassment.
so in other words: the developer claims the tool is for those whose entire job is to engage in targeted harassment, but anyone can sign up and use it for targeted harassment.
Very cool, very impressive stuff. Definitely won’t be used against already censored, suppressed minority groups.
fascist nest but the libs will try as hard as they can to make it seem like they’re not at all related to fascism all while equalizing socalist state leaders to their own neocolonial, liberal leaders in an attempt to absolve themselves of their own depravity.
The Post-Balkanization Effect
I’ve re-read this several times and I still don’t have the slightest clue to what you’re referring to, lib. It’s clear-as-day that you’re just another “They hate us for our freedom” folks and don’t actually care about freedom or privacy for all.

- West votes against democracy, human rights, cultural diversity at UN; promotes mercenaries, sanctions

What “healthy European” privacy looks like:

- AI mass surveillance at Paris Olympics – a legal scholar on the security boon and privacy nightmare
- Investigation of the use of Pegasus and equivalent surveillance spyware

Google Account deletion in theory should delete all data stored in Google, but that theory rests on Google following up on what basically amounts to a pinky promise. As long as you don’t have anything important stored anywhere, like in your Google Drive/Photos, etc…, it should be fine.
