Turkey: Revolutionary Prisoner Turns Hunger Strike into Fast until Death
On July 31, Serkan Onur Yilmaz announced that he was transforming his hunger strike that began on November 10, 2024 into a fast until death while his health condition is critical. Started 270 days ago, this struggle aims to denounce the “well” type prisons in Turkey which are infamous for their particularly inhumane conditions of detention and their very strict solitary confinement regime. Alongside him, eight other revolutionary prisoners went on hunger strike with the same demands: Mithat Öztürk, Ali Aracı, Ayberk Demirdöğen, Fikret Akar, Ümit Çobanoğlu, Fırat Kaya, Tahsin Sağaltıcı and Gürkan Türkoğlu.
Le 31 juillet dernier, Serkan Onur Yilmaz a annoncé transformer sa grève de la faim débutée le 10 novembre 2024 en jeûne jusqu’à la mort alors que son état de santé est critique.
I think I know how modern counter-propaganda works. Propaganda is so sophisticated it doesn't even boil the frog. It just keeps it warm enough to make the frog uncomfortable. So counter-propaganda just needs to tip the balance in this highly fragile state.
I often notice when the West says X as propaganda, the Chinese just say 2X. They don't try to debunk X. So if the west suddenly says it hates goblins, the Chinese say we hate goblins twice as much as the West.

ANTI-TRUMP PROTEST: An article with photos in the Cape May County Herald about the "Rage Against The Regime" protest on 2 August 2025 in Cape May Courthouse, New Jersey, USA. My husband, daughter, son-in-law and I participated.

Chinese scientists have developed a new high-strength cryogenic steel, CHSN01, to solve a major challenge in nuclear fusion: finding a material that can withstand both extreme cold (near absolute zero) and immense magnetic forces. After a decade of research, this new steel has been deployed in the construction of the world's first fusion power reactor, positioning China as a leader in materials science for fusion technology.
As Greenland’s ice retreats, it’s fueling tiny ocean organisms. To test why, scientists turned to a computer model out of JPL and MIT that’s been called a laboratory in itself. Runoff from Greenland’s ice sheet is kicking nutrients up from the ocean depths and boosting phytoplankton growth, a new NASA-supported study has found. Reporting in […]
A new report out of Taiwan has revealed that the current US administration is tying the reduction on trade of trade tariffs on Taiwan to significant TSMC investment in the US. This investment includes a 49% stake in Intel.
did you see fatass Pritzker was on Colbert, and Colbert actually asked about it. The response was (paraphrasing), “yeah we totally gerrymandered things to our advantage, but we did the right way, on the 10 year cycle after the census. Texas is doing it mid-decade, which is unprecedented.”

DHS and ICE are not law enforcement. They do not respect or obey binding legal directives.
DHS and ICE are criminal cartels. It is inaccurate to refer to DHS/ ICE as law enforcement. If they wanted to enforce the law, the best thing for them to do would be start following it.

Die Reaktion der #EU, insbesondere der @EUCommission ist: NULL.
NICHTS. Keine Sanktionen, nichts außer den immer gleichen, billigen Phrasen, man sei ach so "besorgt" – ohne jedwede Konsequenz.
Die Lieferungen von Waffen und Material aus der EU an Israel gehen weiter. Die Förderung israelischer Forschung an "dual-use" Technik, wie Drohnen, geht weiter.
Following 22 months of hostilities, UN agencies urge immediate action to flood Gaza with aid and commercial cargo to address catastrophic humanitarian conditions, including starvation and deaths from malnutrition.

❞ The Geneva Conventions weren’t written by soft-headed humanitarians. They were negotiated by generals, and they recognized, O.K., if we allow starvation as a tactic, we’re just going to be starving civilians, not the guys doing the fighting.
This all leads to one of the most extraordinary points, which is that the G.H.F. was supposed to minimize Hamas looting. Who is eating or selling the food that they are distributing? They can’t tell. The U.N. has a pretty good idea of who was eating its food. The G.H.F. has not got a fucking clue. ❝
China is utilizing humanoid robot swarms to perform complex tasks in car factories, a world-first in automation. These robots use "brainet" swarm intelligence and are developed by companies like UBTECH Robotics in partnership with car manufacturers.

"Although totalitarian democracy is democratic in form, it requires an all-knowing elite to guide the masses toward their determined end, and that elite relies on whipping up mass enthusiasm to preserve its power and achieve its goals. Totalitarian democracy is almost always secular and materialistic, and its adherents tend to treat politics as a substitute for religion. Their sacred mission is to use the coercive power of the state to remake man and society according…

“The spirit of liberty is not merely, as multitudes imagine, a jealousy of our own particular rights, but a respect for the rights of others, and an unwillingness that any man, whether high or low, should be wronged and trampled under foot.”

Nearly 5,000 Palestinians in Gaza have had one or more limbs amputated as a result of injuries sustained in Israeli attacks. The months-long blockade means medical equipment that could help amputees is running out. Alongside the devastated healthcare system, patients battle with deep psychological trauma.

#USA #Rwanda #Genocide (1 of 3) The world learned 30 years ago nothing would be done to prevent #Genocide "The very people who can push the policy agenda were muted and self-censored, so that they don't want to put an editorial in that says the United States should go in and stop genocide " - Samantha Power pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/s…

I was playing with gpt-oss:20b, the new OpenAI model you can download and run yourself.
Thought I would do a quick experiment, ask it the same question about two different groups.
You don't have to read the whole thing. Just look at how much work the AI has to do to not say something insensitive about black people, vs how it treats white people.
Now imagine how much computer time this is wasting, just to give you a less-correct answer.

The "K-shape" economy is back. It's one of the most important charts to understand the state of the economy.
The wealthy are still spending, although there has been some moderation. Meanwhile the bottom 80% are tapped out. Their spending is basically in line w/inflation.
Whether the US ends up in a recession will depend almost entirely on whether the top 10 to 20% of earners keep spending.
I worked on the technical side of consumer packaged goods branding for most of my career, and this trend was the thing all the strategists seemed most eager not to see or think about, as the entire category was founded on the existence of a durable middle class.

@MSP_SMIMSA I wasn't broke, but moving yourself is a great way to see all the shit you've accumulated that you don't need. Even after doing that I'm doing another purge a year after moving as I can see what I need and don't need. It helps that I bought all new furniture too, since I had no family heirlooms
Ho hum: I sent my walking boots off to be resoled the other day, just had a phone call saying that they need more work than I expected (meaning it’ll be less than £100 less than the cost of a new pair), and the membrane (which they can’t fix) is wearing thin around the big toe: “How often do you get wet feet?”
To which the answer is “never”, but the question suggests I will be soon. That plus a ten week lead time before they get to the top of the pile, and I’ve just ordered a new pair and told him to stick them in the recycling bin.
I figured if I retired from the university, I'd be game for a new career. I saw an advertisement for making chess set pieces. That seemed interesting, except I'd have to work knights. That's a better move than working in a pawn shop. However, I expect I'd get board.
