Still pseudonymous for work reasons. Regulation, justice, climate - are among things I work on. Science fiction, Baroque music, Frank Zappa are things I don't work on and enjoy very much. Support 🇺🇦🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Was Uncovernonsense on the hellsite

🟥 C'est en découvrant un faux site RSF que l'ONG est remontée jusqu'à Bolloré/Vivendi/Progressif Media/Émile Duport. Mais ce n'est pas la première fois que des sites trompeurs sont créés par Émile ou sa boîte à des fins de propagande. Préparez vos anti-émétiques ! 🤢 🧵1/12

I do captioning for a living, & a big part of my job is cleaning up false starts & filler words. That has always been the norm at every media outlet. Print media edits Trump so carefully that you would never know what he actually sounds like. Doing this to Biden is a 180 from decades of policy.

She's using - abusing - defamation law for purposes that have very little to do with either protecting her reputation or compensating her for harm to her reputation. She's just vindicating her own sense of might and righteousness. What she does works. It just doesn't work to protect her rep.

That's the difference that I think is easily missed here. JKR doesn't care about her reputation. She wants to shut up people and hurt them. Her threats don't do anything to keep her from trashing her own legacy and reputation; anything but.

But, you ask, what about she-who-shall-not-be-named? She threatens defamation actions all the time, and it works. And she does, and it does. Because JKR is vindictive, wants to hurt people who anger her, has the money to do it, and doesn't really give a damn about her reputation.

Far-right chud in NYT: "They went about the ordinary business of life - laboring, raising children, worshipping their creator - untroubled by futile expectations of change." Medieval commoners: "I would rather the king and all kings were dead than that my son should be hurt on his little finger."

Explosive reporting in Le Monde confirms what was apparent all week: Macron resisted the emergence of anti-far-right front after round 1. His PM, Attal, forced it as a fait accompli, & pressured for drop outs to block RN. Even then, Macron made some phone calls to undercut it.

Clearly Tories were very weak, but Labour had a clear strategy that prevented typical Tory anti-Labour scaremongering from working. That came with a price of very centrist platform and very boring and uninspiring message.
