Israeli occupied Lebanon resembles West Bank
15 June 2026
Life in the part of Lebanon under Israeli occupation resembles the West Bank. Shi'ites are being forced out of their towns entirely. Sunnis, whose farms have been effectively confiscated, are living amidst patrolling Israeli soldiers under an all-night curfew and anyone who goes outdoors is likely to be shot dead.

Report by Democratic National Committee
14 June 2026
The Democratic National Committee commissioned a report about why the Democrats lost the 2024 presidential election, then refused for a long time to release it.
Facing public pressure, the committee released the report, after saying the report was badly flawed for disregarding a very important point: the effect of Democrats' refusal to criticize Israel firmly about Gaza.
It seems that the report was written to avoid that issue. I wonder who decided to write the report that way.
Asylum seekers in the UK
14 June 2026
The UK Labour Party, competing to outdo the extreme right-wing in harshness to refugees, plans that each asylee will get a review every 2.5 years — and these reviews will continue for 20 years before the refugee is allowed to remain permanently.
The policy is, I think, meant to drive refugees to seek asylum elsewhere.

Bullshit generators suggesting changes to faces
14 June 2026
Bullshit generators can give users recommendations for what to change in their faces using plastic surgery, but they may be dangerous or foolish.
The recommendations may unreliable, impossible, or injurious, but users become dead set on getting these operations and then may ruin their lives by having them or seeking the funds to have them.
I suspect that calling those programs "bullshit generators" instead of "AI" would help some people turn away from them.

Bossware spreading to more workers
14 June 2026
"Bossware", which a company runs to snoop on and send commands to workers, is spreading to control more and more workers.
Bossware is oppressive, of course. On the general level, it is oppressive because it is a nonfree program. More specifically, systems that give orders to people are treating them like machines.
The article bemoans the confusion that comes from using the term "AI" to refer to both bossware and LLMs. That is not the only confusion that comes from the term "AI". Let's reject that term, and use the terms "bossware" and "LLMs" instead.

Only way out of Iran war
14 June 2026
It looks like the would-be bully is coming to recognize that the only way out of his war with Iran is to climb down, accept partial defeat, and draw a pretty face on it. Given the circumstances, that choice is less harmful than any of the other options, but militarist Republicans are enraged.
I am disappointed (though not surprised) that this has done nothing to advance the cause of human rights in Iran, nor even to find out how many dissidents the Islamist fanatics have killed.
Saboteur in chief not acting as constitutional president
14 June 2026
Robert Reich argues that the saboteur in chief does not act as a constitutional president, and does not deserve the title of "president".
I agree, but Reich does not suggest what to call him instead.
I have a number of suggestions in the glossary page.
Torture and sexual abuse by Israeli thugs
14 June 2026
Australians who were seized by Israel from the Gaza aid flotilla report torture and sexual abuse by Israeli thugs.
Australian PM Albanese pleads ignorance of whether those reports are true, but some of the victims were diagnosed with broken bones from torture. Those should be easy to verify with an x-ray. Even bruises will have been recorded by medics in Turkey and Australia.
Albanese should verify the facts quickly and then act accordingly.
Inadequate medical attention in deportation prisons

This can lead to death, or to a fate worse than death, such as dementia.

Losing track of a prisoner
9 June 2026
Prisons in the US sometimes lose track of a prisoner, making it impossible for relatives and lawyers to contact per. The result is terrible. This article focuses on Malik Muhammad; Oregon sent per into a South Carolina prison and per family could not tell where perse was.
I found this article gratuitously hard to understand because of its unannounced and unexplained use of plural pronouns to refer to Malik Muhammad. For each plural pronoun there was some group of people that it could have referred to. I had almost reached the end before I realized I had been misunderstanding over and over.
This sort of problem is part of the reason why I completely reject use of plural pronouns for an individual. For the situations where I don't know someone's gender, and for people who assert non binary gender, I use gender less singular pronouns.
We should all switch to them, to make our speech and writing easier to understand.

Here is the message I sent.
Normally I would not write to you about sports activities, but this is about protecting the public.
Soccer is popular across most of the world, more than in the US. So soccer matches in the US will be ideal bait to catch and persecute anyone that grew up elsewhere. If deportation thugs can haunt World Cup games, they will surely deport refugees waiting for asylum hearings, residents with visas, even naturalized citizens, not just unauthorized visitors.
Please support efforts to protect the public from them. Don´t let them put knock-out drops in the world´s cup!
