“US is lying through its teeth about Iran war casualties — and people are noticing”

“The US is still hiding casualty figures from its failing Iran war. The Pentagon is ‘cooking the books’ on the number of soldiers killed and wounded by using outdated reporting to keep the public in the dark. The #Intercept’s Nick #Turse reported on 1 April:
Almost 750 U.S. troops have been wounded or killed in the Middle East since October 2023, an analysis by The Intercept has found. But the #Pentagon won’t acknowledge it”

“The rot inside Reform[UKLtd - my edit]: Epitomised by its head of policy...”
by Sam Bright on Substack
“Farage’s operation is overflowing with weirdos and radicals who are deeply out of touch with the British public. Reform blends extreme Thatcherite economics with an avid hostility to public services, doused with dog-whistle racism and accompanied by a side portion of climate science denial”

RE: https://loops.video/v/ePoj4Ji--p
Why did the right wing win the #socialmedia popularity wars?
My theory is simple: The basic skill to succeed in an authoritarian system, is to figure out what the ruler likes.
The right wing has much more authoritarians than the left (at least here in the West), and with the new automated ruler computer of the #algorithm in place, these skills dominated.
The incentives of #bigtech #platforms favour something else than what we need. We will never win there. #fediverse is our only hope.

Ofcom research shows fewer UK adults are posting their own content on social media, with experts linking this shift to platforms prioritising short-form video. The findings highlight changing user behaviour as algorithmic feeds increasingly favour TikTok-style content over personal updates. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cgqk718l4neo #Media #SocialMedia #ShortFormVideo #Ofcom

“The attack on Macron is not an insult—it is a confession. Trump is not managing a war; he is managing its failure. What cannot be won on the battlefield is now being displaced onto allies, rewritten in real time, and stripped of any remaining coherence”

Also, Meta AI really can't cope with April Fool's jokes. "Why was the lamb born with zebra stripes?". "How long did it take to move the Angel of the North?".
