As they should. Everyone is welcome to their religious beliefs, but they shouldn’t push them on other people, let alone the government.
Thanks, updated.
How about the false positives? You want your name permanently associated with child porn because someone fucked up and ruined your life? https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2022/08/googles-scans-private-photos-led-false-accusations-child-abuse
The whole system is so flawed that it has like 20-25% success rate.
Or how about this system being adopted for anything else? Guns? Abortion? LGBT related issues? Once something gets implemented, it’s there forever and expansion is inevitable. And each subsequent government will use it for their personal agenda.
My guess it’s their way to fight the social media trend of people only reading what embedded and not clicking on actual links.
It’s from the embedded meta tag used to generated previews in social media.

Later this year, at least 325 other healers will undergo the training and become certified HIV counselors.
“At this point, we now have evidence that indicates that the attackers were able to take files from a small number of file servers used by our associates primarily for daily and routine tasks. These servers represent seven of the approximately 25,000 servers across our network,” an Ascension spokesperson said.
They are not exchanging yuan into rubles. They are using their yuan reserves to buy from China/India and China/India is paying them in yuans for oil and gas, so they are getting restocked without need for exchange. Which has double benefit for China, since it’s strengthening their currency and giving them very cheap below market value goods. They are theoretically losing cash since if they were able to sell at full market price they would get 4 times that, but it’s not significant enough to hurt them too much. But that might change soon, since Russia is trying to make China pay full price without having any leverage.
The sanctions would have worked if they had nobody to trade with, but China/India won’t pass an opportunity for cheap oil/gas, which they desperately require for their growth. Russia also have the 4th largest currency reserves in the world just for such occasion. Putin might be a war criminal, but he’s not stupid.
It did have an impact on every day Russians, but even that Russia tried to minimize by keeping interest rates low at the start of the war/sanctions and strictly controlling the exchange of rubles into any other currency. Only now they increased them to stop bleeding cash, even if they can sustain it for longer.
But all of that can change on a dime, geopolitics is a hot mess. US trying to make friends with India now, so they maybe decide to pressure them to stop buying from Russia or China might get offended by recent Russia’s demands for higher price and tries to put them in their place. Who the fuck knows.
It might look not great at first look, but when you think about it, the same sanctions prevent them from using USD. So they are forced to trade in other currencies, which negates all the harm. Like trade with China in yuan or India in yuan (they used to use rupees, but it’s also a weak currency).
I’s not as bad as some western media reported, but it’s not great. They aggressively used their cash reserves and low interest rates to combat the sanctions, so it looked that they were immune, but it’s catching up to them now with interest rates at 16%. And while they were able to circumvent the sanctions with aid of India and China, they were forced to sell their oil & gas for cheap, while OPEC cartel raised the global price. Now Russia wants to make China make them pay full price, but they have no way to demand it if they want any revenue at all.
They have been a violent playground for most world powers, so I’m sure they have a lot of anger they need to work through.
You are correct. Though the meaning behind the phrase remains true and biding precedent. If only precedents meant anything in today’s court system. They reinterpret the Constitution on a daily basis to suite the billionaire needs whose paying them that day.
I think this clown missed the class where US Constitution mentions “separation between Church & State”.

Looks like it. Something on that page specifically breaks it, as it works on the site generally. Here is alternative version: https://web.archive.org/web/20240606185853/https://theintercept.com/2024/06/06/columbia-law-review-palestine-gaza-rejects/
Even If it was used by Hamas, which IDF provided no proof of, murdering children in cold blood is not an answer. Though, US might learn from it and next time when a school shooter takes your classroom hostage, they will just drop a bomb on it. Israel is a genocidal state.
That’s what genocidal states do.
That looks like an interruption.
