It’s already been two and a half days. The longer they go without catching him the less likely it will be that they do.
The fact that they are issuing a wider manhunt seems to back that up.
Given the publicity, I’m sure that they’ll catch a guy, but I’m skeptical that they’ll catch that guy.
Thanks for linking to the video. There is an auto translate option for it buried deep in the CC settings (at least there was for me).
My impression that I was left with is that the guy speaking is basically panicking because he doesn’t want to look bad.
My reaction is “Good. Let the bastards squirm!”
The German government has gone out of their way to silence any opposition to genocide. Fear of looking like a Nazi is the closest they will come to self awareness.
This was in line with my immediate thoughts too.
It seems grossly unfair to judge Japanese people on their ability to speak English.
Their plan is to claim that the children of undocumented immigrants are somehow not “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States and therefore not granted citizenship based on the 14th amendment.
Yes, it really is as stupid as it sounds; claiming that undocumented immigration gives your descendants the equivalent of diplomatic immunity.
@athairmor@lemmy.world is right; presidents cannot pardon state level crimes: https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artII-S2-C1-3-1/ALDE_00013316/
Specifically, the offense must be “against the United States”, and state level offenses are only against the respective state, not the United States.
My first thought is that this entire article reads like a camouflaged press release from Meta.
The source for the article seems to be an anonymous, internal leak, but those “leaks” are often from the company itself as a way to send a message while maintaining plausible deniability.
My second thought is that they are grouping together wildly different types of infractions without saying how many people were guilty of each one. It’s possible that one person was committing outright fraud while everyone else was just accused of a minor technicality.
Finally, the accusation of “pooling” funds seems like a big tell. That’s what you should want the employees to do to save the company money. Without specific details about why that was wrong this sounds more like a gotcha than a legitimate reason to fire someone.
All of these together make this article seem like a way of scaring employees into resigning so they can cut the workforce without being subject to WARN act requirements.
You’re right that they don’t mesh with Judaism.
They also don’t mesh with Christianity.
The religion aspect of it is completely hollow; just a front used to mask being a hate group.
You can’t use genetics to track ancestry; especially not over the course of thousands of years.
Every generation loses roughly half the genetic information from the previous one, so even an ancestor from a few hundred years ago is unlikely to share much, if any, DNA with you (aside from the DNA that’s common to everyone).
I assume the point of this article is to point out that claims of rights to what is now called “Israel” as an ancestral homeland are bullshit, but that’s the wrong way to make that argument.
The concept of rights to an ancestral homeland are in fact bullshit, but don’t point to pseudoscientific race science to prove it.
Instead, just point out that almost every person on earth has ancestors who lived there so ancestry doesn’t give you any more rights to that land than anyone else.
Joe Biden ‘discussing’ possible Israeli strikes on Iran oil facilities
Casually discussing committing war crimes… civilian energy infrastructure is not a valid military target.
Why are you pretending that is some sort of gotcha?
Diplomats communicating with their nation’s allies does not make them legitimate military targets.

No, they wouldn’t.
They would exist outside of our universe (since they created the universe), so the rules of physics in our universe don’t apply to them.
Even if the reality they existed in had something equivalent to atoms, it would be inaccurate to call those “atoms” since they are in different realities.
Exactly this. The whole “viruses evolve to be less deadly/severe” trope is just wishful thinking masquerading as science.
Evolution isn’t some sort of get-of-pandemic-free card, no matter how much we all wish it was.
There’s lots of counter examples of viruses that are still as deadly as ever, but I’d go beyond that; I’ve never seen anyone give a concrete example of a virus that actually did evolve to be less deadly.
The closest anyone has come to that is the 1918 flu pandemic, but there’s no evidence that it’s less deadly now due to evolution. It’s more like that it is simply less deadly because there isn’t as much widespread malnutrition as there was in 1918.
Only the federal government can determine whether or not the immigration is illegal.
For example, seeking asylum is legal immigration and there is no requirement for an asylum seeker to cross at an official port of entry.
Only the federal government has the right to evaluate asylum applications, so by trying to bypass the federal government, this law is effectively an attempt by the state government to deny people the right to seek asylum.
It’s the format used in large parts of Asia.
