Yes, you're right. It's a word that is perfectly appropriate here, though, imo.

I dunno, I'm willing to admit I'm wrong and misinterpreted their post, but even rereading it and their other post in this thread really still feels like they're using Jews and Israelis/Zionists pretty interchangeabley.

Why are you equivocating Jews and Zionists. This just continues to enable the Israeli-championed narrative that anti-Zionism is antisemitism. Stop.

[-] FatCrab@slrpnk.net 3 points 4 days ago

Just FYI, it's really weird to refer to Jews as Hebrews. And apartheid is inherent to the Israeli ethnostate, and fascism is inherent to political Zionism and always has been. This was a criticism levied at zionists, within the Jewish community, before world war 2 even.

That is not what judges have said. They've said that merely training on text is not a copyright infringement. However, companies that downloaded enormous amounts of pirated texts (i.e., stuff they did not have license to download in the first place) still infringed copyright just like anybody else. Effectively the courts have been holding that if you study material you have license to access, you aren't infringing, but if you pirate that material, even if it is merely to study it, it's still infringing. For better or worse this is basically basically how it's always been.

I have no idea what Trump is proposing. Like most republicans, but especially him, he is incapable of even approaching understanding of nuanced and technical areas of law and/or technology.

Few have been as deserving as this man of the old yiddish curse, "Zolst zayn vi a henglomp - hengn baytog un brenen baynakht."

This parallel long predates Israel itself, or even the holocaust. In the early 20th century, there are many letters in yiddish, and other public statements fun within the Jewish community, that were sent to yiddish newspapers criticizing zionism for using parallel language to "Hitlerism" and similar movements that were spreading across Europe.

And if he doesn't walk it back, it effectively collapses the economy so not like market investments will mean jack shit anyhow

Immigration judges aren't judicial judges, they are what are called administrative judges and do fall under the executive branch. That said, there is a lot of administrative law and procedure that is certainly still getting fucked by Trump/maga.

Probable cause for ICE means a real and reasonable apprehension that if they don't make the arrest then, the individual is likely to flee were they to seek a judicial order or warrant. This is literally impossible to have in premeditated raids. The very act of planning and premeditation necessarily means they had time to seek a warrant before arrest. This person is full of shit and fully deserves to be "litigated in the streets." May they suffer the lack of peace they deserve.

I think this would actually trigger real rioting and violence. And that would give the Trump the veneer of legality he needs for Republican support to enact martial law. And that would trigger more rioting and violence spreading beyond NY. It would be a catastrophically stupid move on Trump's part. So probably by end of the month.
