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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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

MODERATORS
 

Snip:

Staff from the Tony Blair Institute (TBI) participated in a post-war Gaza real estate venture aiming to turn the enclave into a for-profit trade zone, according to the Financial Times (FT).

The project envisioned artificial islands, blockchain-based real estate, and what was branded the “Trump Riviera.”

The plan, titled “The Great Trust,” was led by Israeli businessmen and used financial models developed inside Boston Consulting Group (BCG). It was shared with US President Donald Trump's administration and proposed “paying half a million Palestinians to leave the area and attracting private investors to develop Gaza” – an ethnic cleansing incentive framed as economic relief.

FT confirmed two TBI staff members participated in calls and message threads with the group.

Nuremberg is too good for these gouls

Even “cartoonishly evil” feels like an understatement. This is a parody of cartoonishly evil.

Tony Blair already has a very poor reputation, he's just speed running the complete decimation of it

Understatement. His rep's as bad as Thatcher's.

That is an unfortunate acronym. He could have gone with Anthony just for this?
