Martin Holland<p></p><blockquote>The report on <a href="https://federation.network/tags/Germany" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Germany</a>, a highly functional <a href="https://federation.network/tags/democracy" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#democracy</a>, is equally strange. The State report speaks of “significant human rights issues,” including “restrictions on freedom of expression.” One specific example: German law “required internet companies, including U.S. internet platforms, to take down <a href="https://federation.network/tags/HateSpeech" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HateSpeech</a> within 24 hours or face stiff fines.” Germans, in other words, are being called human-rights abusers because they continue to outlaw Nazi propaganda, as they have done since 1945. The <a href="https://federation.network/tags/Trump" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Trump</a> administration’s motives are clear here too. The goal is to please U.S. tech companies, notably X, that find it convenient or profitable to spread Nazi propaganda, and perhaps to help the Alternative for Germany, the far-right party publicly praised and courted by J. D. Vance.</blockquote>(🎁) <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2025/08/trump-state-department-human-rights-report/683852/?gift=cg1XdqsyWjCIPVWKLR2XU8wGUREP-ifA46sSIndVY28" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2025/08/trump-state-department-human-rights-report/683852/?gift=cg1XdqsyWjCIPVWKLR2XU8wGUREP-ifA46sSIndVY28</a><p></p>

Bi Sasquatch<p>The Advocate<br>“LinkedIn, the popular professional networking platform, has quietly stripped explicit protections for transgender and nonwhite users from its English-language hate speech rules, repeating a playbook now familiar to LGBTQ+ advocates tracking the rollback of content safeguards across major social media platforms.</p><p>“The changes, first flagged by the nonprofit Open Terms Archive and independently confirmed by The Advocate, involve edits to LinkedIn’s Professional Community Policies, specifically the “Hateful and Derogatory Content” and “Harassment and Abusive Content” sections. In both, references to protections for transgender people and people of color were either weakened or removed entirely.</p><p>“Before Monday, the site’s “Hateful and Derogatory Content” page included a line explicitly prohibiting the “misgendering or deadnaming of transgender individuals” as an example of hate speech. That language has now been deleted. The same page still states that LinkedIn prohibits content that “attacks, denigrates, intimidates, dehumanizes, incites or threatens hatred” against individuals based on characteristics including gender identity and race.
