I’m sitting in a “high class” (read: white, rich, boomer) establishment, and the complaining is insufferable.
Alcohol and feeling safe amongst their peers (I’m a white man of a certain age, so I blend in) probably makes them say all the quiet things out loud.
Subject of ridicule include:
• Dutch historical figures being removed as namesakes of streets etc.
• transgender people
• inclusion programmes
• young people who don’t want or can’t handle their “feedback” and advise
• addendum: bad snow in ski resorts
• 2nd addendum: climate activists
And I am left wondering how ANY of that in any way would or could EVER impact even a second of their lives.
But clearly that is not how they perceive it. Maybe it is true that if all you’ve known is privilege, even a tiny step towards equality really feels like a threat to your very livelihood or even existence.
Ja graag. Fuck het kapitalisme. Fuck het neoliberalisme. Fuck nul verantwoordelijkheid en alle macht. Fuck de nihilistische verdeel-en-heers genaamd individualisme.
En vooral: lang leve eerlijk delen. Lang leve de gezamenlijkheid. Lang leve verantwoordelijkheid en dienend leiderschap. Lang leve de gemeenschap.
Ps: “Als je niet echt om mensen geeft kan je ze ook voorliegen.” Een perfectere omschrijving van rechtse politiek ben ik nog nooit tegengekomen.
That whole story about toothbrushes and the way it was regurgitated across all kinds of “news outlets” (I’m using that word sarcastically) just makes me so sad about the state of journalism.
It’s crashed to the level of click/ outrage generating content. That’s all it is now.
And actual journalists doing the actual work are squeezed out by these click bait companies flooding the zone.
@avuko with translation issues thrown in, this one was a bit trickier than most. it passed by a lot of our mental filters because it sounds like a thing that could/will happen.
@binsk I know, and I didn’t pay much attention to it myself, but before I would put it on a “news” website for my work…
I honestly don’t think most online news outlets have a journalist checking what goes on there though: auto-aggregation all the way.
If you work in #infosec I suggest you read the above, even if just to get a feel for what we are collectively up against. No fluffy or whitepaper stuff, I promise.
Then, if you have any device running #FortiOS anywhere, especially if the Chinese government might be interested in anything you do, dump a diskimage of the device(s) (with a virtual device this would be easy, I haven't found info on how to do this from a device) and head over to https://github.com/JSCU-NL/COATHANGER to at least run the checks. There is also some live checking you could do; See the report.
Pass anything sufficiently suspicious by your DFIR team, and if the experts think it is "sus", report to your national CSIRT/CERT, or as per the request in the report to the NCSC of the Netherlands: https://english.ncsc.nl/contact.
Dear @EU_Commission,
Could you maybe put a clean HTML version of the NIS2 directive online, for us to easily parse and have read by a machine or process?
