Utterly ridiculous from the Pulitzer Prize committee today.

This Pulitzer citation supposedly honoring 🇵🇸 journos doesn't actually do so.

"Journalists & media workers covering the war in Gaza" includes everyone, Palestinian or otherwise.

The citation fails to mention the nationality of the journalists who "died" (euphemism which downplays the worst recorded journo slaughter), or the identity of their killers, the Israeli army.

Please compare with the 2022 citation for 🇺🇦 journalists.

The 2024 Pulitzer Prize Winner in Special Citations and Awards Journalists and Media Workers Covering the War in Gaza In recent years the Pulitzer Board has issued citations honoring journalists covering wars in Ukraine and Afghanistan. This year, the Board recognizes the courageous work of journalists and media workers covering the war in Gaza. Under horrific conditions, an extraordinary number of journalists have died in the effort to tell the stories of Palestinians and others in Gaza. This war has also claimed the lives of poets and writers among the casualties. As the Pulitzer Prizes honor categories of journalism, arts, and letters, we mark the loss of invaluable records of the human experience.

@ZekuZelalem

You're absolutely right. This is pure racism. Per the Pulitzer Prize committee, Ukrainian journalists exist, but Palestinian journalists don't. Palestinians are an object, not a subject.

"The Journalists of Ukraine" ... "deaths in their ranks"

versus

"Journalists ... Covering the War in Gaza" ... "died in the effort to tell the stories of Palestinians"

So how is the US going to save the Filipinos?

One of the things that the Stack Overflow brouhaha demonstrates is that it doesn’t matter if a service was founded by people trusted by the community (Atwood and Spolsky) and was broadly community-led. If it’s a VC-funded startup, they will sell out their users at some point.

Question for law scholars:

The can issue for signatories countries an arrest warrant on because it has jurisdiction over international crimes committed in since 2012

BUT

If doesn't recognise the , its territory isn't included in the jurisdiction, and the crimes of Hamas where carried out there, then how can the issue a legally binding arrest warrant on Hamas leaders?

A related effect:

If the 5 warrants are accepted, then states party to the will have to arrest any of the five who are on the states' territory.

So the security services [3] will be obliged to arrest , or if they are on Palestinian territory; and transfer them to the ICC's custody in The Hague.

@Francois It seems to me that the research questions that would be the most effective against the would be empirical models of the decision-making of corporations, governments, banks, international institutions especially at concrete events such as , and modelling of how the decisions could in reality be rational, transparent, evidence-based, participatory. Not just hypothetical "if we had a revolution" models.

People can get terribly upset with breaking the about describing authoritarian, would-be totalitarian organisations as authoritarian/would-be totalitarian. It's not surprising that this can happen even in open online communities, since authoritarian organisations are still legal in every(?) democracy. Accepting the compromise of co-existing with authoritarian organisations is distinct from the of denying that they are authoritarian.

Just to throw ideas around: on Fedi you might be able to find enough people in a small town in the US like Échirolles in France where you could have a job helping the town council convert to FOSS. Probably more software education, teaching about posting bug reports/issues, and some software adaptation, than writing code. Depends if such a town exists in the US. Later try for county, state, federal govt agencies?
