People in California need to keep pushing back against the casteist attacks on #SB403 by forwarding the text of #Article15 of the Indian constitution. And point out that the bill is just adding this to the California statutes.

Plain and simple.

Nothing to protest here. Image
Oh for sure, but then let's have them make it explicit, in the United States, especially California, that they are the side in this debate that pines for a theocratic state as an ideal.

Right now they pretend as if the bill is an attack on Hindus. #SB403

These HAF suhag Shukla types are just pouring a lot of heat into the discourse and very little light.

While it is important to combat their misinformation, we should also be putting them on the defensive by asking if they are also opposed to the Indian constitution. 🤷 Image

@stuarthare @rik_ferguson Vice commander Col. Steve Orton set an appointment to tell me the news. "Here's your one-line mission statement," he said. "I want you to buy as many microcomputers as you possibly can, for as many offices in USAFE as you can possibly find, and I want you to cut ALL red tape..."
@stuarthare @rik_ferguson Col. Orton continued: "Now, the system will let you cut a little red tape. They'll tolerate a lot. But you're going to cut 100%. DON'T GET CAUGHT. Help units spend money. If they don't have any, find some for them and spend it. I want microcomputers everywhere in USAFE."
@stuarthare @rik_ferguson Col. Orton continued: "The system won't like you cutting all their red tape. They'll make you hurt worse than the Russians. SO DON'T GET CAUGHT. But if you do, and it's *not* your faultÂą, come see me and I'll make the pain go away."

Just 10 from 10 whole years? Too few. Finally decided to stop keeping a count. Here’s a list of Bollywood movies which counted for something and made me happy #lookback indianexpress.com/article/entert…
What was meant to be a quick listicle turned into a fairly detailed look back at the movies which were about something. For those who don't want to wade through the long-ish piece, here's a rapid reckoner #2010-2019
Band Baaja Baraat (2010) Ranveer and Anushka, the sparks that flew, and that roll in the hay, hey. Ghazab kar diya, bread padode ki kasam

Le 26 mars dernier, après deux années de débats houleux (et une grande bataille pour Julia Reda, notre ancienne eurodéputée), le parlement européen adoptait une directive européenne du droit d’auteur.
Un thread.
#Copyright #CopyrightDirective #Article15
Quand on dit houleux, on a en tête l'eurodéputé @JeanMarieCAVADA accusant les GAFAM de "corruption" et d'être "terroristes Pac-Man" ou Wikipedia de faire campagne "avec l'argent de Mozilla, c'est-à-dire la fondation de Google".

Confondre @mozilla et @GoogleFR, fallait le faire, et @franceinter qui n'a même pas cherché à le contredire...
Si nous ne sommes pas surpris par l'ignorance de l'élu européen, nous le sommes par cette radio financée par nos impôts qui laisse passer une telle fake news...
