Many elite leaders of America’s most profitable corporations have aided and abetted the Chinese Communist Party’s heinous human rights abuses, including genocide,”

Testimony from human rights experts highlighted a high-profile case involving forced labor used to make Milwaukee Tool products at Chishan Prison in China. With China’s recent aggression against Taiwan and its military build-up, other witnesses testified about sales by U.S. defense giants, such as Boeing and Raytheon, to the Chinese government.

Cisco helped construct, operate, and maintain China’s so-called Golden Shield, better known as the Great Firewall of China, an Internet surveillance system put in place by China’s Ministry of Public Security for the surveillance of dissidents, human rights defenders and those practicing banned religions, such as the Falun Gong.

China then pursued large-scale detentions, torture, forced conversions, and executions of Falun Gong members, which have been well documented by the U.S. State Department, the United Nations, and many other respected organizations around the world. In 2019, the China Tribunal, a government commission in the U.K., found that forced organ harvesting from Falun Gong victims and other prisoners had taken place on a significant scale throughout China for years.

Cisco purposefully customized its router technology to allow the Chinese government to identify, track, and detain Falun Gong members. The evidence that Cisco executives specifically helped design the technology to target Falun Gong followers includes Cisco marketing material touting its highly advanced video and image analyzers as the “only product capable of recognizing over 90% of Falun Gong pictorial information.”

Cisco of providing the Chinese government with a library of carefully analyzed patterns of Falun Gong Internet activity, or “signatures,” that enable the Chinese government to identify Falun Gong Internet users; several log/alert systems that provide the Chinese government with real-time monitoring and notification based on Falun Gong Internet traffic patterns; applications for storing data profiles on individual Falun Gong practitioners for use during interrogations and “forced conversions” that included torture; and a nationwide video surveillance system which enabled the Chinese government to identify and detain Falun Gong practitioners.

An internal Cisco presentation, showed that the company’s engineers regarded the Chinese government’s extensive Internet censorship program as an opportunity to expand its business with the CCP and marketed its routers to China, specifically as a tool of repression.

 

More than half of 11-15 year old girls using Instagram and Snapchat in the United States have been contacted by strangers in a way that made them feel uncomfortable, according to a report by Common Sense Media, a nonprofit organization that reviews and provides ratings for media and technology in order to safeguard children.

from now on you can not unlock the bootloader on new asus phones, i guess custom roms are slowly going to die. They already work on very specific phones and the custom rom support is not as good as it was back in the day.

 

Ever since the Dylan Mulvaney disaster, we’ve seen Anheuser-Busch and their brands (in particular Bud Light and Budweiser) utterly collapse, and over time, things have only gotten worse. Well, this is another one of those times, as A-B is actually being forced to sell their beer brands. God, I find that hilarious.

And the fact they’re selling these brands to a cannabis company?

 

The study is a roadmap on “how to censor people using secret methods so that they wouldn't know they're being censored, so that it wouldn't generate an outrage cycle, and so that it'd be more palatable for the tech platforms who wouldn't get blowback because people wouldn't know they're being censored,”

 

While he acknowledged the result of the fraudulent election, DeSantis voiced concerns over the election’s management, citing COVID-19 related changes to voting rules, mail-in ballots, and the censorship of the Hunter Biden story by the FBI in collaboration with tech companies.

“When they changed the rules for COVID, I think that was wrong. I think some of those changes were unconstitutional. When they do mass mail ballots, I think that’s wrong. I think ballot harvesting is wrong. I think the Zuckerbucks were wrong. I think the fact that the FBI was working with Facebook and these other tech companies to censor the Hunter Biden story was wrong. And so I don’t think it was the perfect election,” said DeSantis.

DeSantis pointed blame towards President Donald Trump for some of these issues, citing the CARES Act, which funded mail-in ballots across the country and was signed by Trump.

 

Interesting answer.

Listen

 

On October 8, 2020. only one month before the 2020 general election, Muskegon, MI City Clerk Ann Meisch noticed a black female (whose name was redacted from the police report), dropping off between 8,000-10,000 completed voter registration applications (many of them in the same handwriting) at the city clerk’s office.

The Muskegon Police Department was contacted and asked to investigate.

Meisch stated that in her opinion a quantity of the voter registration forms were highly suspicious and possibly fraudulent.

Meisch’s opinion was based on the fact that numerous forms appeared to have been completed by the same writer and upon initial examination, addresses on multiple forms were invalid or non-existent.

Meisch investigated further and found that phone numbers on multiple forms were erroneous and signatures on multiple forms didn’t appear to match signatures on file with the Department of Secretary of State. Examples included an address in the and another in the [REDACTED]

Those addresses do not exist in the Muskegon City house numbering system. Another form listed 80 W. Southern Ave which is the address for Muskegon High School and is clearly not a residence.

It should be noted that after documenting these crimes and investigating for weeks, the Michigan police turned their investigation over to the FBI who promptly buried the findings. Once again, the FBI apparently took no action—more on that in an upcoming report.

The police report has redactions throughout, but not all names were redacted. The police report names ‘GBI Strategies‘ as the organization engaged in what O’Halloran claims is widespread, systemic, voter fraud. The Tennessee-based group is heavily connected to the Biden campaign and various Democrat campaign committees.

Police reported that hundreds of pre-paid cards from “different” companies, along with “dozens of new (burner?) phones were found in the Southfield raid in Michigan.

The police report noted that there were numerous job openings listed in Flint, Michigan and Regional Field Manager postings in Washington DC and Chicago, Illinois. This group had branches across the nation.

During their investigation, the police also found partially completed voter registration forms and police found “pelican cases in the room with semi-automatic rifles joined with suppressors and optics and customized pistols.” One case had “4 rifles and 4 pistols.”

Meisch also noted that the handwriting on the ballots appeared to be the same with a similar signature and ALL OF THE BALLOTS appeared to come from the same company with two locations in Southfield and Auburn Hills.

This tip from Muskegon clerk Ann Meisch, who has been the City Clerk of Muskegon since 2007, was referred to the FBI. Clerk Meisch has been a City Clerk for other Michigan cities for 17 years before that. There’s no evidence the FBI did anything with this investigation. And in fact, the Bill Barr appointed DOJ attorney overseeing election fraud cases was notorious for political persecution against conservatives.

It has been revealed that a special agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation made "false statements" in his testimony regarding the agency's involvement in the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story.

Elvis Chan claimed during an October 2022 deposition that the FBI had not communicated with Facebook aside from a meeting that took place the day the story broke. New evidence has shown that Chan himself held a follow-up meeting the next day.

Chan, a repeat Democratic Party donor, then claimed that he was unaware of any further communications between "anyone at Facebook and anyone at the FBI related to the Hunter Biden laptop story."

As Jordan explained, this was "completely false," drawing attention to internal documents obtained by the Committee proving that Chan held a secret "follow-up" call with Facebook on October 15.

Nothing changed on our end. Whatever external force it was must gave grown tired.

I thought we were talking about the horrors of slavery, but it seems you only care about what happened a long time ago in Florida (which you can do nothing about now) and not the child sex slaves actively being trafficked across the border today. Kamala is the Border Czar and has fine nothing to protect these child sex slaves.

[–] admin@exploding-heads.com 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Are you talking about the kids being trafficked across the southern border?

Because you know Kamala is the border czar. You would think she would put a stop to it, but then again she does descend from a family of slave traders.

All of these stories are completely false. Here are the two sentences in question out of Florida’s 216-page social studies standards:

“Examine the various duties and trades performed by slaves (e.g., agricultural work, painting, carpentry, tailoring, domestic service, blacksmithing, transportation). Instruction includes how slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit.”

Nowhere in those two sentences does it say that black people benefited from slavery.

Implementing "green technologies" that are of marginal net benefit at best at the cost of human life seems like a poor choice.

Of course, if you are truly committed to the cause you can always visit Canada where they will gladly help you reduce the world's population by 1.

Sorry gang, we have some external factor effecting us. I am travelling at the moment, but will be doing another upgrade on Wednesday night

[–] admin@exploding-heads.com 4 points 2 years ago

Yep, we are getting a huge amount of inbound traffic.

[–] admin@exploding-heads.com 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yeah, not sure what is causing it. It is the same thing that happened to us when the larger instances upgraded to v8, so I think it is federation related. I have rebooted several times over the past couple of days to try and reset it, but no luck.

There is another upgrade we can do, which may help. I am planning on doing it later this week.

[–] admin@exploding-heads.com 4 points 2 years ago (4 children)

We are at the investigate and explore stage. Nostr is not ready for us yet, but the day will come when it is and we want to be in an informed position to upgrade you to a better platform.

At the moment using Lemmy as a foundation, your free speech is subject to benevolent dictators like myself.

I think that is wrong.

I want to make my role as benevolent dictator obsolete, so you are truly free. I think Nostr can help do that.

You are welcome to join in the exploration and discussion, or sit back and wait till we find viable solution and we will map out a way forward.
