- Comment on 'Sneakflation': how tariffs are gradually raising costs for American consumers 1 week ago:
Coupled with a lower dollar too so it takes (~10%) more dollars to pay for an item even without inflation.
I think people are being a bit slow to notice because the low dollar also makes the stock market look like it’s up 10% since we usually look at it in terms of USD exchange. Makes people feel like the economy is doing fine.

- Comment on Israel | An IDF soldier just exposed that Israel deliberately let October 7 happen 3 weeks ago:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannibal_Directive
Israeli newspapers including Haaretz, ABC News and the UN’s Commission of Inquiry have pointed out that during the October 7 attacks the IDF ordered the Hannibal Directive to be used. The IDF was ordered to prevent “at all costs” the abduction of Israeli civilians or soldiers, possibly leading to the death of a large number of Israeli hostages.[6][7][8][9]
- Comment on Israel | An IDF soldier just exposed that Israel deliberately let October 7 happen 3 weeks ago:
I mean Israel has all but admitted it. Combined with ordering soldiers to shoot their own civilians ‘to save them from becoming hostages,’I have no idea how Israelis are okay with their government sacrificing them even if they concur with their government on the genocide generally.

- Comment on US | Epstein scandal broadens as trove of letters from famous figures published 4 weeks ago:
I think the definition is relative to the scarcity of known information, so three ancient manuscripts by Diogenes would be a trove since we know very little of his ideas, but three manuscripts by Kant, though intriguing, would not be a trove (unless maybe they contained stuff totally different from the work we do have).
- Comment on Palestine Action victory leaves cops and Cooper in a proper dilemma 5 weeks ago:
He granted Huda Ammori leave to bring a full judicial review on the basis that it is arguable that:
1. The order is a disproportionate interference with Articles 10 and 11 of European Convention on Human Rights [the rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly]; and that
2. Yvette Cooper, the Home Secretary, breached the duty to consult, by failing to consult either Palestine Action or civil liberties organisations on the impact of the order, while consulting with representatives from the Israeli Government and Elbit Systems the leading supplier of weapons to the Israeli Government.

- Comment on US | Trump State Dept Announces Withdrawal From UNESCO Over Palestine Inclusion 1 month ago:
Really nice article, a professional actually doing their job almost made me want to cry
Audrey Azoulay, director-general of the agency, said the U.S. withdrawal—which President Donald Trump also imposed during his first term, and which will eliminate about 8% of UNESCO’s international funding—was “regrettable,” but that the organization would continue operating without a reduction in staff, having prepared for the president’s exit.
“In spite of President Donald Trump’s first withdrawal in 2017, UNESCO stepped up its efforts to take action wherever its mission could contribute to peace and demonstrated the pivotal nature of its mandate,” said Azoulay, noting that UNESCO adopted a “global standard-setting instrument on the ethics of artificial intelligence,” developed major programs for education in conflict settings, took action to defend biodiversity, and oversaw the reconstruction of Mosul, Iraq—all without the participation of the United States.
Azouly added that the reasons for the U.S. withdrawal, which will go into effect in December 2026, “contradict the reality of UNESCO’s efforts, particularly in the field of Holocaust education and the fight against antisemitism.”

- Comment on UK | Glastonbury’s Kneecap censorship has backfired 2 months ago:
The band’s solution when criticised for this has been to retreat into an outwardly apolitical humanitarianism that just wants Gazan civilians to stop being massacred by the IDF.
So now it’s ‘ outwardly apolitical’ to be vocally against the genocide? Shit take
