LOS ANGELES (AP) — A federal judge on Friday ordered the Trump administration to halt indiscriminate immigration stops and arrests in seven California counties, including Los Angeles.

Immigrant advocacy groups filed the lawsuit last week accusing President Donald Trump’s administration of systematically targeting brown-skinned people in Southern California during its ongoing immigration crackdown. The plaintiffs include three detained immigrants and two U.S. citizens, one of whom was held despite showing agents his identification.

The filing in U.S. District Court asked a judge to block the administration from using what they call unconstitutional tactics in immigration raids. Immigrant advocates accuse immigration officials of detaining someone based on their race, carrying out warrantless arrests, and denying detainees access to legal counsel at a holding facility in downtown LA.

 
 

IDF defies Netanyahu’s plan for ‘humanitarian city’ in Gaza (The Times, 2025-07-08)

>> The Israeli military has refused to carry out a plan to confine ... people in a new “humanitarian city” in Gaza, after senior officers objected and reservists said it would be a war crime.

>> The office of Lieutenant General Eyal Zamir, ... said that the military’s duties did not involve forcibly moving civilians either within or out of the Gaza Strip...

>> ... actively resisted ... a group of dissenting Israeli reservist soldiers, who argued in a petition to the country’s supreme court that forced population expulsions by troops could be a violation of international law.

>> “Relocating and concentrating an entire population is ... a war crime. Framing it in humanitarian language does not change the nature of this crime,” said Yotam Vilk, a reservist officer who served in Gaza and is part of Soldiers for the Hostages ...

We can actually talk about things without overwhelming censorship, strange algorithms, or ads.

think the biggest instance, lemmy.world, not being operated by the Lemmy devs is also a good health indicator

Doubly so considering how the main devs manage their instance according to their highly controversial political views LMAO

Steven Universe is such an excellent show, I can't believe it came out of Cartoon Network LMAO

Have they done anything as good since?

Ah I get it now, you're most likely a .ml alt account, so goodbye!

Tankie definition: "authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.

You would warn newcomers about the Tankie Triad too if you had repeatedly seen all the stories of "I tried Lemmy, but it just seemed like a bunch of tankies, turns out it was just because I was on .ml when I tried it again"

There's tons more that never came back and go on life thinking Lemmy is Voat 2.0. I know this because there's plenty of comments on Reddit whenever Lemmy comes up about "it's just Tankies over there"

Yes, how dare I try to protect Lemmy's rep, I don't want to see this place become Voat 2.0

It's not a straight deal breaker for me, but it's a pretty big barrier, I just can't leave Boost lol 😔

Sounds like it's coming along

Heh I'm finding out so much about how inadequate the blocking system on Lemmy is the past couple days. I'm not a conspiracy theorist type of person, but it's so bad it almost feels... intentional lol

Welcome happy you're here! We've got memes on deck at [email protected] and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got [email protected] to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at [email protected] or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful [email protected] or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like [email protected] and [email protected]. [email protected] is also nice this time of year, but you'll have to post before you can leave.

We're not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies (Authoritarian "communists" who will overlook any wrong doings of China, Russia, NK because they think their governments are the "gold standard"), but here they're mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. You have a Reddit.org account so iirc you only need to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you'd rather just not deal with them. If you want to see what they get up to from a safe distance check [email protected]

The W3C (The body that dictates web standards) specification, that describes what browser engines should handle, like CSS features, HTML5 etc and how is equivalent to thousands of pages long and there are huge standards to implement.

HTML5 is a big thing to implement, so is CSS and the JavaScript engine and probably even more technologies I'm forgetting

And that's just implementation, it takes even more work to get them running well enough for the average end-user

Ladybird has been working on their from scratch engine for ~5 years iirc and they're not planning to even have the first alpha out until next year lol

Sounds like they're deep, probably too far to be reached by someone online, they need actual deprogramming and it's almost impossible to do online. It's why I've mostly given up on trying to seriously debate them and conservatives online and try to focus on "early intervention and containment" lmao

That being said I've made fantastic progress on some conservative family members IRL, if you know this person IRL, you have a shot.
