The George O'Dowd story just gets grimmer...
Boy George, whose real name is George OāDowd, revealed some members of his band were not comfortable with the song.In an Instagram video, he said: āEven now the song is written, there are people in my band who are questioning whether theyāll perform it with me. And those people will be fired.ā
Boy George, who used generative AI to write the song, added: āI donāt need gatekeepers, and one of the great things about AI is that it removes all the interference, all the human interference. The lyrics are mine, the melody is mine.ā

I need to repost my post. Because it really did happen; The British Empire, and itās child the USA, did in fact rewrite the most widely taught commentary of itās holiest book, to include the modern state of Israel in end-times prophecy.
#bible #dispensationalism #israel #zionism
The #Scofield Reference #Bible with #dispensionalist end-times doctrine invented in 1830ās, was picked up and amplified by the British Empire because it suited their colonial aims in the Middle East
This doctrine is still considered #heresy by some nominations today, but the money and power was there, and the view that a modern Jewish state is according to biblical prophecy was aggressively marketed and pushed, especially in Baptist and Evangelical USA

āJews are execrable insects with parasite-hijacked brains.ā
ā Gad Saad, Zionist, at the World Symposium Against Antizionism
Zionism is antisemitic and always has been antisemitic.
To conflate antizionism with antisemitism is, itself, antisemitic.
Zionism is fascism.
Antizionism is antifascism.
(Oh, does it matter that he was only talking about āthe wrong kind of Jewsā ā those who oppose Israelās ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people ā while denying that a Holocaust survivor couldnāt possibly be a Holocaust survivor because they do so? Yes, actually. It makes it even worse.)

@Codeberg I just received this email, titled āYour recent Mastodon postā from @dpk on behalf of the Codeberg āPresidiumā:
***
Dear Aral Balkan
In your Mastodon post at <https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral/117041803584140945> you publically criticized a repository that was hosted on Codeberg, despite linking to an issue thread in which it was made clear that the content should be reported through our usual internal channels for moderation. The repository in question was reviewed by the moderation team and removed. We understand that you suffered reputational damage as a result of this repositoryās content, but this does not justify damaging the reputation of Codeberg e.V. in turn. The moderation team is still a volunteer operation and sometimes it takes a few hours for someone to be available to deal with reports or to ensure that consensus exists.
We therefore warn you not to make posts of this kind that could damage the associationās reputation in future. Acting against the interests of the association can be grounds for exclusion from the membership (§5 (5) of the by-laws). If you have issues with content posted on our site in future, please report it to our moderation team atĀ abuse@codeberg.org. In general, reports sent to that email address will usually receive a reply describing what action was taken once the moderation team has considered how to deal with the reported content.
Kind regards
Presidium

So, I have a problem with this.
My post in no way damaged the reputation of Codeberg. It publicly asked them to do something about it and to state, publicly, where they stand on an issue. An issue, may I add, that has to do with real people facing actual genocide as we speak. Not to mention I thanked them for making the right decision (https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral/117043586669877395). If anything, until this email, it made the organisation look better. Unless, of course, opposing certain genocides is something that damages reputations in Germany.
I do not agree with the public issue being closed either. An issue was reported and the response was not āoh, this is serious, weāll look into itā. It was, rather, āyou reported it wrong. Report the same thing at this other place instead.ā
And that other place is an entirely opaque internal system where no one gets to see what decision-making process is employed.
This is not the transparency that should exist in a member-run organisation.
So at the end of the day, I am the one being threatened with being removed from membership while the person who is actively trying to harm genocide victims (https://codeberg.org/Linux-Is-Best/) is still welcome on Codeberg?
This is a very insidious form of bothsidesism and, I can only imagine, is to ensure that I keep quiet in the future and to create a chilling effect where we cannot discuss certain things publicly for fear of reprisals.
Well, that wonāt be happening.
I am sick and tired of people who cannot provide a proportional response when asked to choose between people harming genocide victims on the one hand and those trying to protect them on the other.
If this means I cannot be a member of Codeberg, so be it.
Let me know if Iām not welcome there and I will leave.
And you can show the world that Linux-Is-Best is welcome and I am not. If thatās who you are.

Dear @Codeberg,
As an active member, Iād like to know what action will be taken against LinuxIsBest ā the person mentioned below ā and his account.
He is using Codeberg to spread Zionist lies about Gaza Verified (https://gaza-verified.org) and attempting to get people to mass block verified accounts of people on the fediverse facing genocide in Gaza at the hands of Israel.
As an anti-fascist organisation, I can only assume this goes against what we hold to be acceptable behaviour on our platform.
Thank you.

Hitler was clearly just born at the wrong time. If heād been around today, The West would be selling arms to Nazi Germany, denying, profiting from, and complicit in the Holocaust, and disregarding ICC warrants for his arrest. Ask me how I know.

I'm not so sure this kind of stuff fits the definition of 'academic and cultural boycott' I keep hearing. 
"An anonymous online form asking people to report the locations of #Jews and #Israeli #tourists in #Italy has been taken down after government officials intervened, media reports say.
The Google form, circulated on #socialmedia and messaging groups before it was removed, asked users to identify Jews, #Israelis and people believed to have ties to #Zionism at hotels, vacation rentals, businesses and other public places. Its purpose was to āmap #Zionist #tourismā and āZionist neo-colonizationā in Italy, the form said."

"#Egypt had enough to argue about without inventing a #conspiracy.
Its #WorldCup run ended in a 3-2 loss to #Argentina after Egypt had led 2-0. A goal by #MostafaZiko was ruled out after a video assistant referee (#VAR) review, and Egypt complained about the officiating. Fans argued about the referee, the late collapse, and whether #FIFAās system had failed.
That is #soccer.
Then the explanation moved somewhere else.
In parts of #Arabic-language media and online discourse, Egypt had not simply lost to Argentina. It had lost to FIFA, #Zionism, #Israel, the referee, #LionelMessi, #Argentinian President #JavierMilei, Prime Minister #BenjaminNetanyahu, and a hidden system built to keep Egypt out.
One #Egyptian commentator made the claim openly: Egypt had lost to āZionism, the referee, FIFA, and Argentina.ā
That was not match analysis. It was the oldest #conspiracytheory in a new stadium ā a new version of the mutating virus that is #antisemitism."

Question: Has chaos.social taken any action against the moderator who muted accounts that are Gaza Verified? I mean, you understand what an inhumane action this is, yes?
āThese accounts are verified as belonging to people suffering genocide in Palestine. I will now mute them.ā
That is not a āmistake.ā
That is evil.
That is genocide complicity.
Is this person still moderating your instance?

Sometimes I post articles that aren't about #zionism or #antizionism, but have those words in the pull quote because it drives weirdos who are blocked by babka to post even though I can't see their comments unless I'm using #Jewish search terms from my alt account looking for cool articles.
I'm not sure why, but when I come across these ghost posts it makes me giggle to myself. Every time.
Zero of my posts are about #Israel except as it maybe impacts the diaspora, but they just can't help themselves anyway. Oftentimes actually proving the pull quote accurate. š¤£

"I do not always feel #progressive spaces are offering a safe haven from those that threaten my community. This is where these disquieting edge cases play in. Some leading advocates may not be outwardly #antisemitic and go to great lengths to avoid crossing that line. That effort itself is good and it is appreciated when people are conscious of not being explicitly bigoted. But when a #Jewish person is faced with questions about our relationship with #Zionism (that are not asked of other potential coalition partners) as a pretense before we are welcome in a political movement, it makes our acceptance conditional on litmus tests. That doesnāt just hurt #Jews. It hurts movements. It chills the desire to join coalitions by a large, reliably progressive demographic with a history of strong support for #civilrights and #democratic #freedoms.
I am not arguing that Jews respond to this by isolating ourselves. I am writing this because I believe the exact opposite."

SINS of Christian Nationalism & Zionism
Sins of Christian War-Making
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-maDeoEDiI
Synopsis:
Holy war is a doctrine of the devil. Every church and organization promoting war for Christ is anti-christ.
Man cannot solve the evil in the world by 'fighting' or violence. That is exactly what the devil and his minions want. The gospel can not be spread by the sword or power of the state.
Every form of radical liberation theology or dominion theology is satanic because it denies the word of God and replaces it with the gospel of war.
Christian nationalists hate the lost because they too are lost souls with a messiah complex. Instead of following the messiah they want to reconstruct him in the imperial state. They do not have love of their neighbor.
My observation:
Christian Nationalism is disguised Roman imperialism, globalism and Zionism, hence it is neither Christian nor nationalist in character. Christian Nationalism has the same character imprint as Holy Roman Empire crusaderism. It is wicked and deceitful.
Christian Nationalists claim to advance 'dominion' or 'taking dominion'. This is blasphemy. The dominion over the nations was given to Jesus, not to imperfect men. Jesus is the one who is given dominion over all the nations. Thus Christian Nationalism blasphemously posits itself as the messiah with the dominion, just like its Catholic parent church.
