    A week in the life of the exploited, child newspaper sellers in turn-of-the-century New York. When their publisher, Joseph Pulitzer, tries to squeeze a little more profit out of their labours, they organize a strike, only to be confronted with the Pulitzer’s hard-ball tactics.

  3. @Bwasscher @[email protected] The difference:

    The IDF's goal of operations is not intentionally killing civilians, including children, uninvolved in terrorist acts.
    While the terrorists intentionally target Jews & Israelis, no matter their age & regardless of their targets being Muslims, Arabs, Christians or Jews - the terrorists' goal is to kill.

    And yes, you're right: Killing children is horrible & evil!
    While I don't expect the terrorists to feel any remorse after what they did to babies on October 7, even having joyfully taken & published selfies & videos of their atrocities & victims.
    May the terrorist monsters rot in hell until the end of time.

  5. @[email protected] @[email protected] I was running a diaspora* pod for years. It was a nice little corner of the internet to avoid the cesspool. Mastodon gathered all the traction during #elongate so it has more active users. Still though, indexing your instance for searches seems a bit obvious of a thing to do. And if people don't like it they can just turn it off. That would be a win for everybody imo.

    I.got muddled for a second there and briefly thought "we will never surrender" was a quote from #Nehru out the original #Gandhi

    but i think it's actually #Churchill ?

    i found this when #ModiSurrendersToChina came up as a suggestion for #Modi

    #Geolocation of who? (or what)

    I also have a (maybe slightly snobbish?) inclination to try to avoid the #USA (as much as this is possible for an #English speaker on the internet) and seek out people from my own side of the planet.

    So if you were looking at % user base that was also a bit disappointing, but it seems to not be that? But I'm quite confused now.

  12. @ladyunicornejg @[email protected] @[email protected] My thinking is, if it's not receiving oxygenated blood, it's suffocating. Maybe an or will clarify if they see these hashstags.

  13. Thank you @[email protected] for calling a “cockamamie” bill that subverts democracy on the @cbcnews At Issue panel tonight! Way to call out Premier Ford and Mayor Tory for subverting our democracy.

    I see #India is missing from that graph of #ExcessDeaths from the #Kobak database.

    Below is a graph from a December 2022 article.

    Do you have a source showing that excess deaths were even higher than the ~4.5 million excess deaths in this article?

  20. Was following the newsie.social instance (to selectively follow accts) and noticed the posts are ~3 days stale...

    Visiting /public/local throws a 422 Auth Reqd error.
    A quick search suggests they may be having financial issues.

    Any suggestions for another news instance (besides journa.host) with good reporters? How about 'must follow' news accounts?

  21. sunny.garden has limited newsie.social as it currently hosts newsie.social/@Newsmax a far-right american media outlet, and will consider increasing this to a suspension in the future if newsie.social demonstrates a willingness to continue platforming far-right and transphobic media, against its own stated commitment to the Mastodon Server Covenant: "Active moderation against racism, sexism, homophobia and transphobia"

    In the meantime, I would highly encourage media outlets such as @ProPublica to migrate to their own independent fediverse instances with all due haste, where they will have greater control over their presence on the fediverse, and avoid "both-sides" entanglement with other organizations which do not share their values.

    [UPDATE: glad to see that newsie.social appears to have suspended the newsmax account. I still recommend media outlets to pursue their own instances if at all possible]
