Wow 6 members of the Mexican Federal Police accused of extrajudicial executions in Apatzingán were arrested proceso.com.mx/596858/detiene…
This was the most gruesome translation I've ever done and it was archived but warning the images are *extremely graphic* web.archive.org/web/2015061013…
Something very important that I learned from this investigation: censorship in Mexican media is outrageous but the journalists and news outlets involved in this case were very innovative to ensure this investigation reached a wide audience.
3 different outlets simultaneously published the work of one (extremely brave!) female journalist, Laura Castellanos, and the way they published was strategic. They all forewent "the exclusive" and published together. Each outlet used different platforms w unique vulnerabilities.
Proceso is a large print magazine (stacks of it would sometimes disappear from newsstands), Carmen Aristegui has a big audience online (she previously had a very popular radio show but was taken off the air) and Univision has a large audience outside of MX.
Aristegui's website was hit w/ a DDoS attack when this investigation was published. I remember b/c I couldn't access the video & article on the site to translate it, but I was able to watch the video on the YouTube channel so I transcribed it, translated & published that instead.
Also just realized Vice published a translation by Laura Castellanos 6 days later so it went out in English language to a large audience too. (I was just translating on a small blog in comparison) vice.com/en_us/article/…
Look how the news of this investigation was reported via Reuters back then. The people who were killed were called "members of vigilante groups" reuters.com/article/us-mex…
I've got admin assist rules set up that should automatically bounce accounts like this from joining a Facebook group I admin, but I've had a bunch of them get in somehow in the past week.
Obvious GANs, fake ladies from New York. IDK what's going on yet but something changed.
I still don't understand what's up with all these fake pages in various FB groups.
It seems I’ve upset some feelings by pointing out that the Centro Cultural Kyle Rittenhouse in La Plata has a portrait of Javier Milei on the walls. 🤷🏻♀️
Quite a few bilingual men are Very Upset that I pointed out that portrait. I didn’t say anything else about Milei and they’re all up in my mentions. 🤷🏻♀️
Behold the Facebook page for the Centro Cultural Kyle Rittenhouse, a real place in La Plata, Argentina. The "Kyle Rittenhouse Cultural Center" got raided today and its far-right extremist owner, José Derman, has been detained. infobae.com/politica/2022/… 1/
José Derman uploaded an 11 min video to YouTube celebrating the attempted assassination of @CFKArgentina, calling people to take up arms to “uproot Marxism” and a bunch of other unhinged, violent ramblings. He's being charged with public intimidation. 2/
During the raid, counterterrorism police seized a *live 83mm mortar shell* that was in the Kyle Rittenhouse Cultural Center (because of course) along with a drone, 3 computers, phones and a few other devices. 3/
There was a tragic house fire last weekend in Nescopeck, PA that was ruled arson. 10 people died including 3 kids, multiple generations of the same family. Tonight, someone drove a car into a crowd of people at the fundraiser for that fire 😔 cbsnews.com/philadelphia/n…
The location of the fundraiser is called “The Intoxicology Department bar” in Berwick, PA and another event happened which appears related involving a hammer attack. 😬
You'll be shocked to learn that many of the 333 Facebook pages in the 168.3K member Anonymous Facebook group, are fake. This is the Facebook group linked to the massive and mysteriously verified Anonymous Facebook page that has over 11 million fans. facebook.com/groups/anongro…
72 Facebook pages are amongst the members of the Facebook group HAL LINDSEY BIBLE PROPHECY TODAY (38,321 members) facebook.com/groups/3142593…
