are we all just supposed to accept the .ml instance bans?

I think you should. You have the remainder of the English-speaking internet in which to post popular CIA disinformation about the failed June 4th color revolution without any pushback. Why do you need this space too?

The link works for me, but it's an RT story and it doesn't link to the Le Monde report.

I trust The Economist magazine for thoughtful analysis and [...]

i-cant "Lmao okay I guess not then."

Or they'll be discussing politics and history with an (otherwise) interesting guest when the subject broaches Marxism, and you hear the same old, first-grader, thought-terminating misconceptions about "human nature" or "works in theory". agony-acid

Edit: One guy remarked that the Nazis were a result of the October Revolution, which may be technically accurate because some White Russians worked with the Nazis, but he was definitely framing it in a "communism did WWII" way.

Two staff members at the Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC, were killed Wednesday night near the Capital Jewish Museum, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said.

“Two Israeli Embassy staff were senselessly killed tonight near the Jewish Museum in Washington DC,” Noem said in a post on X. “We are actively investigating and working to get more information to share.”

Two people believed to be connected to the Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC, were shot Wednesday night near the Capital Jewish Museum, according to a source familiar with the situation and a law enforcement source. Another law enforcement source told CNN that two people were killed.

DC Police said its investigating a shooting across the street from the FBI’s Washington Field Office, which is located near the museum. The Israeli embassy is working with law enforcement.

The Israeli ambassador was not involved in the incident and was not at the location when the shooting happened, an embassy spokesperson told CNN.

US Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a post on social media that she and acting US Attorney for DC Jeanine Pirro have arrived to the scene of the shooting outside the Capital Jewish Museum.

Ted Deutch, the CEO of the American Jewish Committee, said his organization was hosting an event at the museum on Wednesday evening.

“We are devastated that an unspeakable act of violence took place outside the venue,” he said in a statement. “At this moment, as we await more information from the police about exactly what transpired, our attention and our hearts are solely with those who were harmed and their families.”

Israel’s Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon reacted to media reports of the shooting on Wednesday, saying in a statement on X, “The fatal shooting that took place outside the event that took place at the Jewish Museum in Washington, DC – in which Israeli embassy employees were also injured – is a depraved act of anti-Semitic terrorism.”

Police are advising people to avoid the area in Northwest DC.

This is a developing story and will be updated.

RT: Ukraine detains pensioner honoring Victory Day

Ukrainian police have detained an elderly woman who went to lay flowers at the Eternal Flame memorial in Kiev on Victory Day, wearing a Soviet-era side cap with a red star. The star, as well as other symbols and names associated with Ukraine’s Soviet past, have been banned by Ukraine’s notorious 2015 decommunization laws.

The officers asked her to provide an explanation at the police station. “I’ve been there six times already,” Savchenko said. “Now the whole world will know that you are chasing me off.

Regarding the red star symbol, the woman said, “Oh, you can barely see it,” adding, “Not like your swastika.

It is not clear from the video what the woman was referring to regarding the officer’s uniform. However, Nazi ideology is common in contemporary Ukraine. Nationalists in Ukraine hold annual torchlight marches in honor of Stepan Bandera, who headed the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN), which collaborated with the Nazis and perpetrated and took part in a number of massacres. Ukrainian servicemen are regularly caught on camera wearing the swastika and other Nazi symbols in the conflict with Russia.

Savchenko has been listed on the Ukrainian state-linked Mirotvorets ‘kill list’ since 2018. Her page accuses her of “anti-Ukrainian propaganda” and taking part in “anti-state activities.” According to Ukrainian news reports from 2024, she arrived at the memorial in full Soviet uniform for Victory Day last year.

In 2023, Kiev changed Victory Day from May 9 to 8, and named May 9 ‘Europe Day’, as part of its efforts to distance itself from Russia. Many Ukrainians continue to defy the changes.
