"Trump DOJ goon threatens Wikipedia"
theverge.com/news/656720/ed-ma…

"The interim US attorney for DC [Ed Martin] claims…that #Wikipedia is 'allowing foreign actors to manipulate information and spread propaganda,' including by 'rewriting' historical events and through 'other matters implicating the national security and the interests of the United States.' "

PS: Where to start? Apart from the ideological problem of what counts as propaganda, and the legal problem of protected speech, there are two epistemological problems here. One is that truth-seeking is and ought to be international. The other is that even if editing the English-language Wikipedia were limited to Americans, Martin would still hate many of documented conclusions they published. National origin is not a good proxy for party line.

Martin is the same US attorney sending letters to medical journals asking them to explain why they are not partisan.

Kenya's kidney trade: Inside global organ trafficking network


#politics #health #capitalism #hell

The article is very long, so here's a summary of the most important points...

Young adults struggling with poverty are being recruited to sell their kidneys for as little as $2000, by dodgy organ harvesting operations in Kenya. Those who've sold their kidneys are used to recruit others for a small commission for each referral. Kenya is used because there aren't laws against donating your organs for profit and a foreign exploitation ring is using the gap as their business model.

It doesn't end there, because many donors aren't from Kenya, but other poor countries such as Pakistan. The medical companies fly in poor people, take their organs and give them a small amount of compensation. Many donors can't adequately speak English and don't understand what they're really consenting to or any of the risks involved. Some haven't even been old enough to donate their organs.

The Kenya based medical companies target people with kidney failure, in higher income markets like Israel and Germany. They promise a new kidney within 30 days and charge up to $200,000 for the organs they bought for as little as $2000. Donors are advertised as completely altruistic, of course. But I doubt the recipients are really asking too many questions. A number of the recipients returned with failed transplants and serious infections.

And the brain behind Medlead? An Israeli who has been accused of performing a large amount of illegal kidney transplants, across a number of countries. His mate, Boris Wolfman apparently is the brain behind the criminal enterprise.

This is one of the many evil faces of capitalist exploitation, by making organs just something to be sold by poor people and maximising the profit from people stuck on kidney waiting lists. Humanity is just a commodity to these sick fuckers.

we're seemingly heading in the right direction... I'll cheer that. also enjoying libTards meltdowns.

but notice my post was questioning the video's narrative. I understand the CCP is a tyranny and may be producing propaganda to make themselves look weak. They are the home of Sun Tzu after all.

BTW (and, for what its worth) Reuters is reporting Xi has backed off the ethane tariff.

also, extra ethane supply could drive down the price of antifreeze and detergents, as well as be used to boost BTU output of nat-gas. So... there's that.

President Trump held an executive order on Monday to create a list of and strip funding from states that “continue to use their authority to violate, obstruct, and defy the enforcement of Federal immigration laws.”

President Donald Trump’s second term has marked one of the busiest first 100 days of any president in recent memory, with the commander-in-chief issuing a slew of executive orders and pursuing a litany of initiatives designed to radically overhaul the federal government, upending the four-year legacy of his predecessor. The initiatives may also have a profound effect on how Americans define themselves.

Drawing Made Easy was Lutz's most popular book and was reprinted through the 1970s. In it, Lutz taught a method of drawing based on the technique used in French art schools in the 19th century: begin with large basic forms and progressively refine them by adding smaller shapes and detail.
