    "A spokesperson from Everyone Hates Elon said: “As governments talk about hard choices and struggle to fund public services, Jeff Bezos can afford to shut down half a city for days on end just to get married. Just weeks ago he spent millions on an 11 minute space trip. If there was ever a sign billionaires like Bezos should pay wealth taxes, it’s this.”

    Clara Thompson, Greenpeace campaigner, said: “While Venice is sinking under the weight of the climate crisis, billionaires are partying like there is no tomorrow on their mega yachts. This isn’t just about one person — it’s about changing the rules so no billionaire can dodge responsibility, anywhere. The real issue is a broken system that lets billionaires skip out on their fair share of taxes while everyone else is left to foot the bill. That’s why we need fair, inclusive tax rules, and they must be written at the UN.”

    A tax on the super-rich would help to fund the necessary transition to a green and just future, fund affordable housing, cheaper public transport or home insulation. Greenpeace’s ship, the Arctic Sunrise, was anchored at the port of Venice last week-end to promote this transition and expose the damage the fossil fuel industry causes to the people and the planet."

    Following the iran war events i made a provocative post at [email protected] and it got taken down. I can understand why they would not like that one but why banning people who were simply arguing their opinion?

  • I was making a comparison with US and Russia government, i was not implying that they are bad among others who are good. If you ask me most governments in the world are bad and i couldn't point a single military that serve justice.

  • And why is it important?

    Venice's major and italian authorities are using the argument that this event will bring a lot of money in the country to justify it. News like this are evidence of the damage these people are actually creating. 90 private jets for 250 guests is one of the most ridiculous rich people stunt i've ever seen, i think it's important to share to let people aware of this shit happening.

    Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez, 250 guests arriving on 90 different private jets at the wedding in Venice.

    Article is in italian I couldn't find any news about this in english but i believe it's really important to share.

    "Sono attesi dagli 80 ai 90 aerei all’aeroporto Marco Polo di Venezia. Jet privati da Los Angeles, New York, Londra e Dubai scaricheranno in laguna un carico scintillante di star, imprenditori, supermodelle, influencer e tycoon. Il traffico aereo privato sarà talmente intenso da richiedere un coordinamento speciale tra l'aeroporto di Venezia e gli scali di riserva a Verona e Treviso. "

    Translation:

    "80 to 90 planes are expected at Venice's Marco Polo airport. Private jets from Los Angeles, New York, London and Dubai will unload a glittering cargo of stars, entrepreneurs, supermodels, influencers and tycoons into the lagoon. Private air traffic will be so intense that it will require special coordination between Venice airport and the reserve stopovers in Verona and Treviso. "

  • read the article

    "Over the past hours, at least 20 tankers took off from various bases across Europe—including Prestwick (UK), Morón (Spain), and Ramstein (Germany)—to support what can now be confirmed as a large-scale redeployment of U.S. fighter jets to the Middle East."

  • WW3 is any ruler biggest dream because it would grant them the highest amount of power they can get. WW3 won't happen as long as people refuse to go to war because rulers never fight their wars and they need pawns who do die for them. You will get a world war once enough people get brainwashed to fought one. Watch out for government and war propaganda.

    Lemmy content quality sucks

    Lemmy is a really great piece of software and i'm happy to use it but i have to say the quality of the content is really low and the way the platform is structured isn't helping. The frontpage is filled with memes and news from third parties and most discussions are happening below stupid headlines. If i were to document a live event i have no idea were i should post.
