    "What the EU calls “Rescue Coordination Centres” are, in reality, Abduction Coordination Centres. Now the EU wants to expand this deadly system to eastern Libya - despite the fact that its consequences are already brutally clear in western Libya: people intercepted at sea are forced back into a country where they face torture, sexual violence, forced labour, slavery, and indefinite detention.

    The EU claims to stand for human rights and the rule of law. In practice, it funds, equips, and legitimizes Libyan militias to stop people from reaching safety.

    This is complicity."

  5. @amalia22 It's not intended to be - it's a pathetic excuse, given the issue of #forcedlabour in the #US, & the fact that #Trump & his minions couldn't give a damn about it, either there or anywhere else.

    Resource intensive neural network algorithm - not OK
    Forced labor - OK
    Slavery - OK
    Abduction - OK
    Dictatorship - OK
    Authoritarianism - OK
    Totalitarianism - OK
    Genocide - OK
    Ethnic cleansing - OK

    Am I understanding the values correctly?

  11. "Australia's anti-slavery commissioner asks Tony Burke for visa reform after inquest into Jerwin Royupa's death."
