  8. Heute ist wieder #DDay. Mich persönlich hat das motiviert, mir ein Linux-Laptop zuzulegen und mich in Ubuntu rein zu fuchsen. Als nächstes steht an, ein halbwegs aktuelles Graphene-OS Gerät in Betrieb zu nehmen. Aber sowas können nicht alle Menschen. Andere fangen an, eine andere Suchmaschine als Google-Search auf Phone und Pad einzurichten (Tipp: Startpage oder Ecosia, aber schaltet den "KI"-Mist aus) oder wechseln von Outlook zu Proton-Mail.

  12. @infozentrale

    Die Normandie-Gemeinde Legrune-surMer mobilisierte gegen Besuch von Hegseth zum #Dday - dort sollte das diesjährige Abschlussevent stattfinden.
    Unerwarteterweise hat sie Erfolg damit, weil der sich kurz vorher noch mit rassistischen Äußerungen delegitimiert...

    Reaktion eines US-Veteran:
    „‚Ich werde mir eine Flasche
    französischen Wein besorgen und auf euch anstoßen, weil ihr die Werte verteidigt, für die wir gekämpft haben.‘“

  14. Here is a message to all of my American and Canadian cuzzie-bros, whose parents or grandparents spent some time during the second world war in Britain as part of our shared heroic fight for freedom.

    English women had three complaints about you Americans and Canadians:

    1) You were overpaid.
    2) You were over-sexed
    3) And you were “over here”

    Thank you all and God bless you!

  16. A brave group of French villagers reminding Hesketh of what is really important. Sacrifice and human values. Well done!! #hesketh #dday theguardian.com/world/2026/jun

  17. #TheGuardian: ‘A point of resistance’: the #Normandy village that said ‘non’ to #PeteHegseth

    "US #defenceSecretary cancelled appearance at #Dday event in #LangruneSurMer after protest by residents"

    And well they did, #Hegseth was up to his usual self in the one event he remained invited to.

  19. This didn't make headlines, but a French village refused to host Hegseth for the D-Day celebrations

    As pointed out to me, US centric as I am... This didn't make headlines in the US. It didn't even get mentioned

  21. The shared democratic values between the United States and Europe that were once the bedrock of transatlantic cooperation are in tatters. On this year’s anniversary of the D-Day landings that turned the tide against Nazi Germany in World War II, the Trump administration offered a full-throated endorsement of Europe’s far-right political parties. #trump #dday #hegseth

  22. What a week at the Pentagon: Pete Hegseth's DoD unrecognized nearly 200 religions, banned reporters from the press room, blocked promotions for qualified women and minorities, and capped off the week by invoking the neo-N4Z1 "Great Replacement Theory" during a D-Day commemoration in France.

    Well, Drinky Pete, I think it's time you learned the true meaning of the 1st Amendment.

  23. Wenn Erinnerung zur Kulisse verkommt

    Pete Hegseth nutzte die D-Day-Gedenkfeier in der Normandie für eine gefährliche rhetorische Verschiebung: Migration wurde in die Nähe einer «Invasion» gerückt. An einem Ort der Befreiung ist das mehr als geschmacklos. Es ist geschichtsvergessen.

  24. FUCK HEGSETH fucking sideways ..

    This guy used #DDay celebrations at #Normandy for a racist political rally.

    He chose to disgrace the deaths of more than ten thousand of heroes who gave their lives on that very beach to fight fascism, in order to deliver a fascist message.

    Fuck you!!
