Re: Harper's Magazine - The Hoffman Wobble, or how Wikipedia infected out minds
For your amusement, I passed this along to parish coroner Bones, who has now published his examination in the disinformation report.

I've been poking around on en.wp & fr.wp lately, and I noticed that in the 374K jumble of letters that is the French page on the pension reform protests there is one (and only one) occurrence of the word "émeutes" and that is Macron being quoted on TF1. :lol: That said, well after Macron ignored the...

Re: WSWS: Mobilize the working class against French police murders and state repression!
I dunno. Sarkozy was brash and unpleasant and had all sorts of legal troubles (he was recently sentenced to three years of prison, but of course two were suspended so he could do his time at home with an electronic bracelet). Hollande caved to the neolibs at every turn and helped them implode the So...

Re: Emmanuel Macron's terror regime murders teenager
That's quite a change from the original title... "Meurtre de Nahel : le mouvement ouvrier doit intervenir ! " 17-year old Nahel apparently got a job as a pizza delivery driver without having a driving license, which usually costs around €1000 to get in France. If you fit a certain profile (cf. délit...

Re: Research Article: Wikipedia’s Intentional Distortion of the History of the Holocaust
Since the WPO thread has been locked, I should perhaps revisit the question posted above of whether or not the Holocaust Law was in fact used in the lawsuit over Dalej jest noc as suggested by the following citation: In the case of Grabowski and Engelking, a civil lawsuit was filed by the Polish Ant...
