The Return Of Colonialism
Today In Real Estate: Start A War, Kill Your Neighbors & Steal Their Land
62% of them seem nice.Uri Tzafon’s informal, oft-repeated motto is “occupation, expulsion, settlement.” It has advanced the idea that Israel must move its northern border to the Litani River—which bisects Lebanon about 15 miles north of the current Israeli boundary—and occupy a depopulated southern Lebanon, comprising some 10% of Lebanon’s total territory.That idea is now a “broad and troubling consensus” in Israel, as the journalist Moshe Gilad wrote in Haaretz on April 9th. In early March, soon after Hezbollah launched attacks on Israel in response to the joint US and Israel war on Iran, Israeli public figures began calling for the occupation and depopulation of southern Lebanon — a claim repeated again and again by mainstream Israeli media personalities. Retired military leaders and politicians also voiced their support, and members of Knesset soon joined the call for occupation. On April 7th, 20 members of Knesset (MKs) wrote to the Israeli cabinet advocating for “occupation and full control” of southern Lebanon alongside “the complete displacement of the population.” One poll found that 62% of Israelis now support the idea of occupying all of Lebanon south of the Litani River.
Some call it gentrification, some call it "ethnic cleansing".These aspirations are being translated into policy: On March 24th, Defense Minister Israel Katz announced that the military would control southern Lebanon up to the Litani, and prevent the return of hundreds of thousands of residents. A week later, he said that all homes near the border would be destroyed, “like in Rafah and Beit Hanoun,” in order “to permanently remove border-adjacent threats.” Israel has now issued evacuation orders for about 15% of Lebanon’s territory, part of its campaign to ethnically cleanse the southern part of the country, specifically of Shiite Muslims. (Hezbollah is a Shiite organization.) “Every home in southern Lebanon, the Shiite homes, are control command centers, they hold weapon supplies, they have tunnels going beneath them,” Israeli military spokesperson Doron Spielman recently said, in comments chillingly reminiscent of Israel’s justification for the destruction of Gaza. Over a million people have already been displaced from southern Lebanon, and over 2,000 people have been killed, with nearly 6,000 injured.

National Today, a site that mimics news outlets and includes subdomains for dozens of US cities, appears to use AI to plagiarize articles from multiple sources — “This is very upsetting to see.” … On Tuesday evening, we published an original interview with a researcher who had recently coauthored …
Kim Andrew Elliott / @kaedotcom.bsky.social: bsky.app/profile/medi...

I lost count around 300+ articles while trying to gauge how many articles NT published in just one day.Maggie Harrison Dupré / @mags_h11: @slotkinjr Content farms are nothing new, and AI has made them worse and worse. But what's interesting about this particular fake news mill is that it's run by a PR firm called “TOP Agency,” whose CEO Ben Kaplan is even listed as an author of some very clearly plagiarized articles: [image]Maggie Harrison Dupré / @mags_h11: @slotkinjr Also this alleged quote from Pope Leo is obviously not real: [image]Maggie Harrison Dupré / @mags_h11: @slotkinjr There are remarkably terrible errors littered throughout this website — among them, fabricated quotes about real news events attributed to various John and Jane Does. “John Doe, Artemis II Astronaut” “Governor Jane Doe, Governor of Iowa” and so on [image]Maggie Harrison Dupré / @mags_h11: @slotkinjr Plagiarism is just the start. NT publishes most of its “news” content on pages designed to look like local news sites — “NYC Today,” “Cleveland Today,” etc. All of them have the same slogan: “By the People, For the People.” [image]Maggie Harrison Dupré / @mags_h11: @slotkinjr This is just one article — I can't stress enough how massive the scale of theft is. This site has plagiarized everything from major national outlets to pretty much any local outlet outlet imaginable. [image]Maggie Harrison Dupré / @mags_h11: This website, National Today, is truly insane. We first noticed it because we're among the many sites it's ripped off — excerpt from an original Futurism story is on the left, the NT version is on the right.

Not A Delusion, But A Calculation
Trump hates Pope Leo because he sees himself as the real vicar of Christ
The president is trying to rebuild Christianity in his own image, but the first American pope is standing in the way
A few subheads:Into this vacuum stepped Donald Trump in 2015. The offer was explicit. “Christianity is under tremendous siege,” he told a heavily Evangelical crowd in Iowa that year. “We are getting less and less and less powerful in terms of a religion, and in terms of a force. If I’m there, you’re going to have plenty of power. You don’t need anybody else.” It was a Nietzschean Christian appeal to power rather than a show of humble faith. Together, Trump promised, we will seize control of the kingdoms of this world—an almost perfect recapitulation of Satan’s offer to Jesus in Matthew 4.
Sounds like an outraged Catholic. Many links to blasphemous fun, however, including the image. There's more ludicrous claptrap there than you can stand ("You'll plotz w/ laughter!") including Americana Art & Sacred Art.Trump as the leader of reactionary Christians’ war on modernity

Except there won't be any graves, just skeletons frozen in the ice. Ha ha ha from The Coast where people can live. No climate refugees needed!Critical Atlantic current significantly more likely to collapse than thought
Scientists say finding is ‘very concerning’ as collapse would be catastrophic for Europe, Africa and the AmericasThe Amoc is a major part of the global climate system and brings sun-warmed tropical water to Europe and the Arctic, where it cools and sinks to form a deep return current. A collapse would shift the tropical rainfall belt on which many millions of people rely to grow their food, plunge western Europe into extreme cold winters and summer droughts, and add 50-100cm to already rising sea levels around the Atlantic.[...]
Prof Stefan Rahmstorf, at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany, said: “This is an important and very concerning result. It shows that the ‘pessimistic’ models, which show a strong weakening of the Amoc by 2100, are, unfortunately, the realistic ones, in that they agree better with observational data.”
