So please, help!!
Actually reblogging that one because 1) I checked the original poster and 2) I felt doubt when no french media outlet that wasn’t obviously alt-right dwelved on the subject, so here I go with a list of reasons this post is dead wrong.
1) made by a self-proclaimed fascist with a blog called “Think-critically” whose blog is full of racist, transphobic, fascistic, mysoginist content. Allow me to doubt.
2) the guy in the video is a friend of the EDL. You can see another of his videos from 2 days ago where Tommy Robinson, leader of this islamophobic group which is on numerous hate watch list, supports this channel’s messages.
3) EDRI and Techdirt are also websites associated with the alt-right.
4) From everything I’ve gathered about said article 13. It’s actually meant to stop, block and disable fake news campaigns. Like the ones Russia did in France in 2017, the UK during brexit, Italy, Germany, Poland, etc…. It’s a way to also put responsability on websites that host the information (YouTube, Twitter, Facebook. All 3 having a pretty tulmutuous relationship with European countries (Read: don’t comply with the law and refuse to pay taxes)) as a deterrent to make sure they’re careful during election season (Which, to their credit, they were during the Irish referendum, blocking foreign media outlets). That means
5) The alt-right just got 30k Tumblr users to sign a petition against blocking Russia’s interference in our elections, dressed it up as a brave struggle for freedom (This will END the internet guys. Trust me on this one. They want to destroy it because….. BAD. Not GOOD.) And y’all not checking your damn sources played right into their hands.
In conclusion: Fuck Putin and fuck the Alt-right, go out and vote, check your sources.
Reblogging for the above addition, because I’ve seen this post circulating my dash and, frankly, it’s just ridiculous. Here’s the actual article in question:

Oh hey I was talking about this today.
Article 11 is also absolute shite. Make a fuss about that too!
i like to think jade hand wanders in hopes of finding other solars… he craves to impart with them his interpretation of the Unconquered Sun’s wishes, but also wants to know someone with his same traumas and questions more than anything.
Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about what’s possible for characters vs. what the audience sees. (This might feel really obvious or redundant to talk about, but I just need to get the words out of my system)
In Steven Universe, when a character can’t do something, it’s a bit of a big deal. They struggle with it, they fixate on it, entire episodes may be dedicated to this thing they’re unable to do. When a character can do something, but doesn’t, it’s never focused on or called out. But when it does finally happen, it underscores a huge moment for that character.
As early as episode 10, it’s confirmed that Amethyst is able to bubble Gems. The action itself is not a big deal for her. Maybe she’s done it lots of times offscreen, where the audience hasn’t seen it. But since it’s our first time seeing her do this, it underscores her growth in this character arc, as she sends her tormentor and kindred spirit away.
On the other end of things, Garnet’s refusal to ask questions in the present ends up being a highlight for her backstory–she’s only shown asking questions in the far, far past, to highlight her very first moments of being in comparison to how firm and completely certain she is of herself now.
One can assume that Greg has always had some manner of social life outside of Steven and the Gems, but it has never once been mentioned who his friends are or what he does when he’s not working or hanging out with Steven. To wait until after he’s reconciled with Pearl to mention any sort of social action underscores how much he was letting the past get in the way of his friendships before this point. Considering this same episode is about Pearl doing the same for her social life highlights that further.
No one ever calls out these actions, or lackthereof, within the show. Things that aren’t happening lay in wait, to emphasize important moments in a character’s development.
All this is to say…
boy howdy they must be saving up Pearl shapeshifting for an absolute doozy.
I’ve been really lazy about scanning/posting art lately, but here’s a new oc. Her name is Agatha and she is a witch who owns an antiques shop and wears exclusively vintage clothing.
Aries: You fell out of the back of a the box car and landed in a dying briar patch. They found nourishment in your skin, you cant feel the thorns anymore.
Taurus: Stolen by a rival monarch and raised as their own child. Not for any political reasons, the queen just wanted more babies.
Gemini: Traded to a band of romani for a sandwich. They realized whoever was trading you for a sandwich was probably an asshole and they should take better care of you.
Cancer: Raised by birds after your parents were eaten by said birds.
Leo: Lost in the mountains after a thunderstorm. Your eyes became accustomed to the dark, teeth honed for the warm things.
Virgo: You were lied to. You were told you were completely human.
Libra: A plot of jealousy lead to your poisoning, however it had no effect and actually made you a little stronger. Your parents just rolled with it.
Scorpio: One of those river babies. You know, like when you just find a kid in a river.
Ophiuchus: You just appeared in the hospital. Manifested out of thin hair.
Sagittarius: An experiment in testing the limits of long-distance ballistic insemination.
Capricorn: You are the true heir to the throne of Ghengis Kahn.
Aquarius: Raised by wolves. Eventually there was a custody battle so you spent winters with your human parents and summers with your wolf parents.
Pisces: Your mom is actually the moon. How’d you get down here you knucklehead? Get back up to the moon.
