Kingsley Wilson, the newly-appointed DoD Deputy Press Secretary, believes in a thoroughly-debunked antisemitic conspiracy theory. I've mostly only seen this theory promoted by mask-off neo-Nazis.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

The road to fascism is lined with people telling you to stop overreacting.

Yet sometimes, it's just unambiguously and unarguably laid out black and white.

Look. It's fascism. It's trans-national, systematic, networked, fascism. They mean it.They're not joking. What are you going to do?

As a German I agree to both statements!

Woah. Google just filed redacted versions of many of its Summary Judgment exhibits in Texas v Google adtech antitrust case ahead of the March 31 trial. Although this case mirrors DOJ's case awaiting decision, it has even more eye-popping evidence. And an expert suggesting $29B in penalties. /1

For years, we’ve heard about women prisoners in Syria being raped, giving birth in prison, and their children being imprisoned with their mothers.

As rebels open the prison to release prisoners, you can see a little boy in an overcrowded, messy cell.

Watching the Apple Writing tool ads in disbelief. Is this the same sabotaging ad agency that made the iPad ad? 1. The lazy employee: Didn't read the brief,unnecessarily leaves the room and comes back lying that he read the brief, closing to a track that shouts "genius!" youtu.be/BK8bnkcT0Ng?...

Elon Musk is piling onto all the hurricane disinformation, hampering relief efforts The billionaire is using the power of his social media platform to spread falsehoods that officials say are hampering recovery efforts.

Both should work. Pixel works for sure though content blockers get inbetween. There should be the option to retarget people who clicked CTA (not entirely sure) or general engages with your content.

Und wieder ein reichlich irritierender Vorgang bei der Berliner Zeitung. www.tagesspiegel.de/gesellschaft...
