  1. CW: Amnesty, "she who shall not be named" and trans voices.

    #Amnesty capitulating to JKR has made me quite uneasy, and one of the things that really bothers me, is the seemingly lack of backlash.

    That sites like Pink News writes about it in a "here is what happened" manner is not something one should expect, but possibly not surprising.

    That queer organizations I kinda expect would say something, appear silent about the matter is hard to relate to.

    I am left wondering what #trans people feel, how the trans community reacts, but even from there, I see very little reaction. This, though, I can understand. When the ones you kinda expect to back you, are silent, it gets a lot harder.

    Trans rights are under attack, and it's not just "the right / far right" that are being problematic.

    And while this hits trans people hard, it's not like the issue does not concern us all. Fear of trans people is used as a weapon to push through control that spans way beyond.

    It hurts the cis women they claim to protect as well.

  3. Rischio di espulsioni collettive - Ceuta

    Amnesty ha sottolineato che "il gran numero di persone che arrivano a Ceuta non deve distrarre dal fatto che, ai sensi del diritto internazionale, il principio di non respingimento è assoluto e le espulsioni collettive sono proibite in tutti i casi".

    How relevant are the experiences of post Nazi Germany, post 1989 central and eastern Europe, post Franco Spain, post Troubles N.Ireland...?

  10. "So the key findings of Amnesty's report was that these anti-rights groups have massive funding, that it comes largely from far-right christian groups in the US, and that they're abusing UK charity law to misrepresent themselves as pro-rights organisations."

    Important thread on the #amnesty report that #jkrowling censored. I don't blame Amnesty at all - the unlimited number of lawsuits JKR offered to fund would have ended them. This is another example of her using the political power that her money gives her to destroy other people's rights, in this case Amnesty's right to freedom of speech.

  14. Jeg returnerer mitt pride-armbånd til #amnesty. Kanskje blir flere med på å gjøre det samme. Amnesty trakk sin kritikk av et av JKR sine sentre. "Det skulle aldri vært publisert" sier Amnesty.

    På Amnesty Norge sine sider, publisert i 2010, ligger artikkelen "Amnesty heier på Harry Potter".

    Dette var riktignok før JKR viste sitt "sanne ansikt" på en måte som var umulig å misforstå. Men det går tydeligvis ann å angre seg, og avpublisere artikler.

    Denne har man latt ligge, vel vitende om hva HP universtet er med på å finansiere.

    Det betyr lite om det er en trussel om søksmål som ligger bak det Amnesty gjorde. Vi trenger ikke organisasjoner som kun går etter de som ikke har sterke nok advokater til å være en trussel.

    #Pride handler om mer enn "retten til å elske" - og få grupper er så utsatt som transpersoner. "Kvinners rett til trygge rom" er et stråmannargument som stadig vinner frem - godt hjulpet av menn som ønsker alt annet enn trygghet for kvinner.

    Amnesty bukket for de.

  16. Amnesty International UK Caves To JK Rowling, Issues Apology For Calling Anti-Trans Groups "Anti-Rights"

    The organization has stood up to dictators and death squads, but Rowling and the UK's anti-speech laws were apparently too much.

    I prigionieri di guerra e i civili ucraini presi dalle forze russe sono volutamente isolati dal mondo esterno. L’assenza di informazioni su dove si trovino facilita le torture nei loro confronti. Le uccisioni illegali dei prigionieri di guerra proseguono nella completa impunità. Il rapporto di Amnesty International contiene terrificanti testimonianze di torture e di diniego di cure mediche da parte delle autorità russe.

  24. #JKRowling Threatens To Sue #Amnesty International Into Oblivion For Expressing An Opinion About A Charity She Funds
    techdirt.com/2026/07/17/jk-row
    JK Rowling has spoken about how she wrote the first Harry Potter book while she was employed at Amnesty and how much that experience influenced her writing how she learned “the power of human empathy” from working there Now she’s threatening to bankrupt Amnesty for expressing an opinion about Beira’s Place a “women only” charity Rowling created

    You have to be a special Satan's chosen arsehole to try to bankrupt #amnesty
    That woman should have stayed on unemployment.

  31. Amnesty International:
    Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya’s life is in immediate danger, Physicians for Human Rights Israel and his lawyer warned Saturday, after a prison visit revealed the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital bearing fresh, severe injuries to his head, eyes, ears, and neck, so disfigured his own attorney initially struggled to recognize him.

  32. I am a federally cleared programmer, turned #whistleblower

    I spoke against the #VA and #AccentureFederalServices and pointed out corruption and mismanagement of funds. I fight for the rights of #veterans

    I have been persecuted, and homeless since 2023.

    I am presently in #Japan , seeking political asylum.

    My whistleblower story is here:

    whistleblower.lovestoblog.com/

    I thought that I would be safe from persecution, once I got to Japan. This turned out to be wrong.

    I ran out of the funds I came here with, in February 2026, and have been #homeless here since.

    I turned to every refugee assistance I could find: #JAR, #AAR, #RHQ, #FRESC, #UNHCR , the #Shinagawa City Ward Office. They all denied me assistance.

    Second Harvest gave me 5 food packages, over two months, each of which lasts 2-3 days.

    The #Takanawa #Catholic #Church was feeding me 1 meal a day, though now they have stopped even that.

    When I reported to Mr. Takaii, a priest at #Meguro Catholic Church, that I had been abused by a Catholic Charity in #Kona , #Hawaii ( documented in the link above ), he suddenly told me he did not speak any English, though we had met a few times, and had several conversations, and he speaks English fluently.

    This is probably because I asked him to respond to my critique of #Christianity in general:

    rant.li/ashwin/why-i-am-also-n

    The #corruption at the heart of the Catholic church and Christianity could not be more profound.

    The #Pope has condemned #war and called for #peace , and scored cheap #poltical points against #Trump , though he has not called on all #Catholics to resign from the military, and stop participating in war. His apologia are crocodile tears.

    I am presently hungry, homeless, and need of medical care.

    The Japanese #Immigration Bureau keep asking me why I have "overstayed my visa". I keep responding that while my asylum application is pending, I am not overstaying in Japan. Japan is in violation of #International #Law ( 1951 & 1967 convention on the treatment of #refugees ). They can easily extend my visa, so I can get medical care and food. I have reported to them several times that I am in pain, and need food. They keep on harassing me.

    It seems to me that the #JapanPM has decided to make same mistake that Japan made in #WW2 - siding with #corruption

    Please boost this message.

    Also please advise where I may turn for immediate help.

  33. “Amnesty International ha esaminato 102 dichiarazioni rilasciate da funzionari governativi e militari israeliani tra il 7 ottobre 2023 e il 30 giugno 2024 che disumanizzavano la popolazione palestinese, invocavano o giustificavano atti di genocidio o altri crimini contro di loro”.

  34. “Amnesty International conclude, sulla base delle prove raccolte, che Israele ha commesso e sta commettendo un genocidio contro la popolazione palestinese di Gaza dopo il 7 ottobre 2023, attraverso le sue politiche, azioni e omissioni. La documentazione prova che Israele ha commesso atti proibiti dalla Convenzione sul genocidio con l’intento specifico di distruggere la popolazione palestinese a Gaza”. (Amnesty International)
