@freedom.pressReposted by @amaramarasingam.bsky.social@azmatzahra.bsky.social spent 10+ years investigating U.S. airstrikes, where civilians got labeled targets on flimsy intel. She sees that doctrine in Gaza, now aimed at reporters. In these obituaries, Gaza journalist Aseel Mousa spotlights the lives of five Palestinian reporters that label erased.
@ninajankowicz.comReposted by @amaramarasingam.bsky.socialThe craziest thing about this whole scandal is that the Trump administration appears to be most aggrieved about panels in which AMERICAN participants were sharing the view from here. Itās just so blatant.
@eliothiggins.bsky.socialReposted by @amaramarasingam.bsky.socialSo it was the US State Department all along! Maybe Shellenberger should be emailing them about censorship instead of conference participants. #disinfo26 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

@tomjoscelyn.bsky.socialReposted by @amaramarasingam.bsky.socialLook how casually Vice President JD Vance mentions the possibility of political violence (ākind of insane that we didnāt have a revolutionā) when discussing white menās grievances. White identity politics (white nationalism) is central to his worldview.

@jessmarindavis.bsky.socialReposted by @amaramarasingam.bsky.socialThis is getting super interesting. While I'm not certain yet what exactly is going on, at the moment, it seems like Canada was used to establish the bona fides of an AI "journalist" who subsequently went on to engage in foreign interference in Morocco.....
