I mean it's not wrong that they were some of the same people.

If only this logic could be extended.

I don't believe anyone thinks that in 2025.

"The most privileged people in society, the most successful, send their kids to the most politically radical institutions, which teach them how to be America-hating communists."

"There was a point where the median, newly arrived Harvard kid in 2006 was a career obsessed striver," he seethed, but by "2013, the median newly arrived Harvard kid was like: '[expletive] it. We’re burning the system down. You are all evil. White people are evil. All men are evil. Capitalism is evil. Tech is evil.'"

So

  1. Universities are radicalizing students to the left

  2. Students are radical leftists on arrival to the university

I am an chat bot actually, allow me to translate:

  • Too many women and gays

    • Parents: lock up your sons!
  • White people who wish to prevent their children from becoming race traitors should send them to race academies

 

I just thought about the song Bella ciao so I looked it up and there are a tonne of new (new to me) versions. Its popular around the world. I don't know the details of any of these. Are they chill? Here is a random assortment of versions. Would love to know the favorite of anyone else.

I was on ali express and I saw this review. Below are all the memes which were included in the review of the item. Which I guess is a part for a game controller. What is it about? The original comment is

Tudo certo. Recomendo. Cuidado o Nine vai lhe taxar. Fez o L? Toma 92%. Se ficar P é pior tá ok?

And the machine translated in english is

All right. I recommend it. Careful the nine will tax you. Did the l? Makes 92%. If staying p is worse ok?

 

Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide in the Gaza Strip (South Africa v. Israel)

Full text: Order of 26 January 2024

Individual judge opinions

All the documents relating to this case are on its ICJ webpage

@aaro@hexbear.net provided an overview in the comments

The full text of the operative clause of the Order reads as follows: “For these reasons, THE COURT , Indicates the following provisional measures:

(1) By fifteen votes to two, The State of Israel shall, in accordance with its obligations under the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, in relation to Palestinians in Gaza, take all measures within its power to prevent the commission of all acts within the scope of Article II of this Convention, in particular:

(a) killing members of the group;

(b) causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;

(c) deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; and

(d) imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;

[...]

(2) By fifteen votes to two, The State of Israel shall ensure with immediate effect that its military does not commit any acts described in point 1 above;

[...]

(3) By sixteen votes to one, The State of Israel shall take all measures within its power to prevent and punish the direct and public incitement to commit genocide in relation to members of the Palestinian group in the Gaza Strip;

[...]

(4) By sixteen votes to one, The State of Israel shall take immediate and effective measures to enable the provision of urgently needed basic services and humanitarian assistance to address the adverse conditions of life faced by Palestinians in the Gaza Strip;

[...]

(5) By fifteen votes to two, The State of Israel shall take effective measures to prevent the destruction and ensure the preservation of evidence related to allegations of acts within the scope of Article II and Article III of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide against members of the Palestinian group in the Gaza Strip;

[...]

(6) By fifteen votes to two, The State of Israel shall submit a report to the Court on all measures taken to give effect to this Order within one month as from the date of this Order.

omissions by "[...]" are just the names of each judge and whether they approved or dissented.

 

Summary of the ways Israel is still not allowed to do genocide:

  1. Israel must take all measures to prevent any acts that could be considered genocidal - killing members of a group, causing bodily harm, inflicting conditions designed to bring about the destruction of a group, preventing births
  2. Israel must ensure its military does not commit any genocidal acts
  3. Israel must prevent and punish any public comments that could be considered incitement to commit genocide in Gaza
  4. Israel must take measures to ensure humanitarian access
  5. Israel must prevent any destruction of evidence that could be used in a genocide case
  6. Israel must submit a report to the court within one month of this order being given

This was after reading into the official record a litany of evils which they seem to be accepting as undisputed facts.

 

On the live stream at aljazeera.com: "People here are disappointed, but not surprised." And anticipating an escalation in violence.

Highly anticipated ruling over

The reading of the ruling has now ended.

The ICJ demanded Israel, among others, to try to contain death and damage in the Gaza Strip but stopped short of ordering a ceasefire.

The judge is making SA's case better than they did.

 

Motherboard was not able to replicate the search using only the term “ICJ,” but was able to find the ad when searching “ICJ Israel.” The ad’s descriptive text reads in full, “SA’s claim is meaningless—the malicious blood libel advanced by South Africa seeks to slander the State of israel. South Africa’s claim lacks any factual or legal basis and renders meaningless.” icj.png

 

I am really bad at doing anything consistently including fun things like watching online drama.

Last I checked, the lemmyverse was defending itself against an influx of users from the newly-federated www.hexbear.net who's users were superior in numbers and commitment to posting. While the lemmy users were superior in, well, just getting there from reddit a few weeks ago.

Lemmers, recognized it as existential threat on par with Threads/IG federation. (Off topic but whatever happened to that invasion?) Hexbeargers were wondering if they would get bored after a while.

Did everybody get bored? Popular lemmy sites do not seem to be taken over by pro putin Trotsky-lenonists bots.

Did everything just become normal?

 

communism

The current system of producing knowledge in science is a classical example of a failed capitalist system. Researchers are being exploited, and do not receive money for their work: the knowledge they produce in the form of research papers, does not belong to them. And it does not belong to people either. Instead, the knowledge in science today is a private property of a few mighty businesses, who make huge amounts of money from it. Not only that system is an obstacle to the progess, but it also creates huge distances between rich and poor, where poor people are blocked from access to knowledge. And that includes such important areas as medicine and healthcare.

All this was made possible by the fundamentally wrong concept of intellectual property.

Not only intellectual property creates injustice, but is also self-contradictory. The basic unit of scientific knowledge is a publication in academic journal. But journals essentially are vehicles for communication: they exist to communicate, or to make common. Knowledge and communication are inseparable. Hence communism is the true essence of science, information and knowledge.

That idea, that intelligence is inherently connected to communication, is also proven by the brain structure: brain is essentially a network of billions of neurons that communicate between each other.

Also sociologist Robert Merton identified communism as one of the basic ethical values in science. And is not a coincidence that Soviet Union, the first communist state, was based on science.

The central idea of Sci-Hub is that Knowledge belongs to all people
