Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Co-sponsored by pro-Israeli lawmakers Mike Lawler and Josh Gottheimer, the legislation proposes punishments of up to $1 million in fines or up to 20 years in prison.

idea for a bit: start campaigns to "Boycott Mike Lawler" and "Boycott Josh Gottheimer". Put up yard signs and posters and billboards in each of their districts (NY 17 and NJ 5) with their names and faces on it, calling for them to be boycotted and for businesses not to serve them. Like signs that say "do not trust this man, do not do business with this man, this man supports genocide." Find out what companies they own stocks in or who they get campaign donations from and start boycotts of those companies. Boycott any companies their family members own or work for.

At this point, they should just pass a bill to make Hebrew as a second official language at amerikkka considering the level these guys go to defend their FOB.

that website is embedding itself and asking for cookies, what the hell?

This seems like it could be a privacy / security vulnerability. Page content shouldn't load just by opening the lemmy comments.

Had been wondering about PeerTube embeds with their "watching this video may expose your IP address" warnings, if any requests were made that might expose your IP without explicitly watching the video.

Could you open up an issue on lemmy-ui about this? Thx.

? how would you even police this

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 13 points 20 hours ago

From what I’m guessing it’s a pretense to arrest leftists.

You know damn well they would never lay a finger on nazis who only hate Israel because they’re Jewish.

citizen, you WILL eat the sabra hummus

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 37 points 1 day ago

Pretty sure it's going to be used to arrest anyone in the BDS org

You don't, it's to shut up one more line of criticism towards the entity in media.

ok so you arrest everyone who doesnt buy enough israeli products, put them in prison, use them as an enslaved workforce to reindustrialize the US, and make ukraine agree to buy everything this new US industry makes in return for weapons.

It will be darkly funny if what causes Congress to overturn Citizens United is trying to stop BDS.
