    Don’t get your hopes up. Without access to classified information (for national security reasons as well as political — read Cabinet papers — reasons) the Community Commission will be dismissed as uninformed and proletarian drivel by main stream media (aka #Murdocracy, #StokesMedia, etc.) and decision-makers alike.

    Still, stoking the fires of community angst against #secrecy and #politicalObfuscation is not a bad thing at all. #AUKUS ought to be part of the #PublicDebate and the powers that be ought to be held #Accountable for their decisions. Public horse trading for decent social services and the welfare of our environment is worth every battle we enjoin.

  5. @wdlindsy I hope your country will succeed in holding Trump #accountable - and also in removing him from his office, by whatever suitable and ethically adequate means, before he might reconsider his decision not to wipe out any civilisation (yet). It would be a GREAT relief to everyone opposing fascism, all over the globe.

  6. “Economic #CivilWar ”: States Push Laws to Shield #Oil & #Gas Companies From #Accountability

    GOP-led state legislatures are passing a slate of laws that effectively shield oil & gas companies from legal claims that they are responsible for the destruction & mounting toll caused by #climateChange. 15 laws have either been passed or are currently being debated in 11 states. Together, they threaten to remove long-standing tools for the public to hold corps #accountable.

  7. the mayor and two council members were today "volunteering" at the nijmegen #hackerspace, next week is municipal #elections. i founded that space, but within a year quit due to the vast incompatibility between #principles and #values, but even in my worst #nightmare i was not expecting #dutch "#hackers" assisting #christian #conservative #politicians re-election #campaign. hold them #accountable ffs, instead of cementing their power.

  8. The #paradox of #trust in #health care in the age of #SocialMedia

    @thelancet

    Health systems worldwide face two fundamental and connected challenges: pervasive #misinformation and #disinformation and eroding public trust. This erosion reveals a paradox at the heart of contemporary science–society relations: the more science succeeds in solving complex problems through rigour and institutional coordination, the more it alienates a public that values immediacy, authenticity, emotional resonance, and personal connection. Consequently, those most committed to scientific #rigour—scientists, health-care institutions, professional societies, and public health agencies—are increasingly distrusted, whereas those least #accountable—untrained influencers, unqualified individuals with financial motives or political agendas, and artificial intelligence bots—are deemed credible. This so-called trust paradox is amplified by #engagement-driven social media environments that reward disinformation, immediacy, group identity, and authenticity over factual truth. The consequences are harmful health outcomes and misguided policy decisions. Addressing this paradox requires not only technical accuracy but also co-production from the outset, overarching horizontal communication, infrastructures for transparency and emotional resonance, and regulatory reforms for algorithms and digital environments.

  9. I repeat: We as a #community, each and every one of us must rigorously hold #accountable everyone in our reach, starting with and especially in our own families, friends - acquaintances circle. No excuses, no looking away, no pardoning, #zerotolerance. This is the ONLY way.
    For reference I recommend The Paradox of Tolerance.

  10. Hot take but the #mindset of kill all #men and saying stuff like all "men are trash" and "kill all men" actually absoves bad men of personal responsibility because you are implying that all men are inharently evil instead of holding evil men responsible for their own horrible actions. Hold #individuals #accountable for their own #choices.

  11. It's still standing there, draped in white. I pass #Grenfell every day, knowing there are most likely still bodies in there, burned into the structure, and unrecognisable.
    No one has been held #accountable for #murdering 72 people.
    It will happen again.

  12. "According to #AWS, almost 16 hours🤦‍♂️ passed fr te time first lapses of multiple services in US-East-1 region were reported, to when all te services returned to normal operations.. make major players such as dcloudservice providers & #datacentre operators #accountable to higher #security & #resilience #standards. Tis latest AWS #outage highlighted te #internet’s #dependence on te op'ns of a single co, & te need to fortify systems against such #disruptions"🧐 #BreakupBigTech

  13. IL Gov. Pritzker, to a former governor and current aging Barbie-esque mascot of DHS, "It's been nearly 45 days since Secretary #Noem has held an official press conference, so it's time she faces the public and takes questions from the Press, to be held #accountable for the Trump Administration's gross #misconduct. Illinois is not a photo opportunity or warzone, it's a sovereign state where our people deserve rights, respect, and answers."
    Noem showed-up at 8 AM at the Mayor’s office to demand a mtg with the local mayor (where the ICE #detention center in a #Chicago suburb is located). When the mayor availed herself of a mtg., Noem was no longer interested.

  14. There is a really toxic group of people on here that think if you criticize the #Democrat party you are evil and on the side of #Trump & #MAGA. I'm sorry but I'm never going to stop criticizing BOTH political parties and holding them BOTH #accountable. I don't do #cults. Blue or Red. Do better.

  15. Global Policy Challenges 🌐 Nations debate #ethicalstandards, #privacy concerns, and the #societalimpact of #AI, seeking a balance between #innovation and #regulation.

    Regulation and Responsibility ⚖️ Lawmakers craft policies to ensure AI is #transparent, #fair, #accountable, while preventing #misuse or #harm through AI.

    Competition and Collaboration 🤝 #Countries and #techgiants compete for #AIleadership, but also recognise the need for global cooperation.

  16. 'When #BigOil Says Jump, Republicans Ask How High?' #GOP Sends #ClimateKilling Bill to #Trump's Desk

    "It's a sorry testament to the influence of Big Oil on Capitol Hill that one of the top priorities of Congress is a blatant handout to the worst actors in the #FossilFuel industry," said one critic.

    Jessica Corbett, Feb 28, 2025

    "Climate advocates are blasting congressional Republicans this week for their latest gift to fossil fuel industry: sending a resolution to kill the federal Methane Emissions Reduction Program to the desk of U.S. President Donald #Trump.

    "#BigOil - backed Trump is expected to sign the Congressional Review Act resolution, which senators passed along party lines on Thursday. That followed a Wednesday vote in the House of Representatives, where Democratic Reps. Henry Cuellar (Texas), Jared Golden (Maine), Vincente Gonzalez (Texas), Adam Gray (Calif.), Kristen Donald Rivet (Mich.), and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Wash.) supported the measure alongside all Republicans present except Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania.

    "#Methane has more than 80 times as much warming power as carbon dioxide during its first two decades in the atmosphere. The pollution program was established by the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act and finalized by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) last November. The Associated Press reported Thursday that 'most major oil and gas companies do not release enough methane to trigger the fee, which is $900 per ton, an amount that would increase to $1,500 by 2026.'

    "The GOP resolution will end the program, but not the mandate from the 2022 law. #MahyarSorour, #SierraClub's director of beyond fossil fuels policy, declared that 'this attack on EPA's implementation of the methane waste emissions charge is short-sighted and harmful. It remains a legal requirement for EPA to hold the biggest methane #polluters #accountable for their negligence.'

    "'Forcing the agency to implement the charge some other way after conducting a thorough, well-researched process is as wasteful of taxpayer resources as these oil and gas operators are wasteful of harmful methane,' Sorour argued.

    "'Technology to monitor and stop leaks is readily available and easy to implement, so only wasteful, careless corporations will face a fee for excessive methane pollution. Despite this setback, Sierra Club will not stop fighting to make polluters pay for their egregious actions.'"
