Activists covered both firms were covered in red paint. The dripping paint splatters were symbolic of the companies’ bloodstained complicity in Israels ongoing genocide.

#HandsOffComté: Why is the beloved cheese causing such a stink in France?
Since the publication of an article mistakenly claiming the Green party wanted to ban comté, the political world has turned its attention to the cheese.
While its production does have environmental consequences, it's not the only one responsible for the degradation of rivers in the eastern France region where it is made.

When Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel’s extremist far-right Minister of National Security, made a recent visit to Capitol Hill, he ended up crossing paths with a group of pro-Palestine activists.
That group included award-winning Palestinian author and journalist Laila el-Haddad, whose books include ‘Gaza Mom: Palestine, Politics, Parenting, and Everything in Between.’

Quoting Amy Spitalnick of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs on how the Trump administration’s focus on “combating antisemitism” undermines Jewish safety by fostering fear and selective enforcement:
[…] "The ways in which the administration is exploiting the Jewish community's legitimate fears and concerns about antisemitism is ultimately undermining Jewish safety."
Spitalnick argues that the administration uses #antisemitism as a pretext to justify actions such as deporting pro-Palestinian student protesters and cutting funding to universities, while ignoring or downplaying antisemitic ties within its own ranks, such as key figures such as Paul Ingrassia, Rachel Cauley, and Ed Martin, who have affiliations with antisemitic or extremist ideologies.

Israeli media reported on Friday that unusually intense airstrikes by Israel on Gaza were so powerful that explosions were heard as far away as Beersheba, a city 42 kilometers (26 miles) from the strip, shaking homes in nearby illegal Israeli settlements.
Channel 12 described the wave of bombings as “extraordinary,” citing residents near the border who said their homes were rattled by the intensity of the attacks.

Fuck around and find out: Solange Länder – wie auch fast die gesamte deutsche Verwaltung – auf proprietäre Software setzen, kann es keine digitale Souveränität geben. Das gilt auch und insbesondere für KI.
Auch das ist einfach so ermüdend. Seit Jahrzehnten drängen von allen Seiten Expert:innen darauf, dass auf #OpenSource gesetzt werden soll. Und nicht auf proprietäre Software. Passiert ist wenig bis nichts.
Und jetzt fällt uns die Untätigkeit - welch Überraschung - auch in diesem Fall auf die Füße.
Und noch schlimmer - selbst in der aktuellen Situation migrieren noch Behörden/Einrichtungen zu #Microsoft und Konsorten.
Was ist kaputt bei euch - wie schlimm muss es noch kommen?!

in reply to Matze • • •Das Bild zeigt eine Szene mit einem dramatischen Himmel, der von dunklen, bedrohlichen Wolken überzogen ist, die auf anstehenden Sturm hindeuten. Im Vordergrund sind grüne Blätter eines Baumes sichtbar, die in den Himmel ragen. Die Blätter sind frisch und leuchtend, was auf eine gesunde Vegetation hinweist. Im Hintergrund sind weitere Bäume mit dichtem Laub zu sehen, die in verschiedenen Grüntönen erscheinen, was auf eine Vielfalt an Pflanzenarten hinweist. Zwei Straßenlaternen mit klassischem Design sind sichtbar, die in der Mitte des Bildes stehen und auf eine gepflegte Umgebung hinweisen. Der Himmel ist stark kontrastierend mit den dunklen Wolken, die eine bedrohliche Atmosphäre schaffen. Die Szene vermittelt ein Gefühl von Natur und Stille, trotz der anstehenden Wetterveränderung.
