Watching #showtrial on #iplayer
If I were an actor I’d love to play Tallither.
Not sure what that says about me.

So deep-blue #KMT dinosaur #JawShawkong does not understand that #HongKong has been brutalized into #submission by Beijing's overreaching #NationalSecurityLaw? Or why does he call on "Beijing to treat Hong Kong well"? The crime has long been committed, all #civicrights have gone, #JimmyLai is getting a #showtrial at this very moment FFS!

And this guy seriously claims to know what is best for free and #democratic #Taiwan?

Trudging through the rest of the 5 hours of this horror show, it was *so* much more bearable with a 🍷. I'm not usually one to need a drink...I'm slipping, but really, I've *never* seen a worse display from Congress. We've taken whole new levels in depravity.

I just had to watch yesterday's TikTok hearing for myself, I'm now only half an hour into it, and my god, the behavior from all the US Congressmen is nothing short of horrifying. Shou Zi Chew and TikTok, by contrast, have gone way up in my estimation.

Jason Rezaian: Iran’s legal proceedings against protesters are worse than show trials

"In Iran, the Islamic Republic has a long and well-documented policy of using violence as a tool of political repression. Nationwide protests against the regime, triggered by the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old Kurdish woman being held in police custody, was met with severe crackdowns and widespread arrests, followed by what would charitably be called show trials. Indeed, even to call them that is to grant them a veneer of legitimacy that they do not deserve.

These macabre rituals, culminating in inevitable yet arbitrary executions, are the product of a state killing apparatus charged with keeping the regime in place. Law — even the regime’s twisted #Islamic version of it — has nothing to do with it."

"Such a paranoid regime knows no limits. As we are already seeing, a repressive regime such as Iran’s will with time turn its violence abroad."

Today in Labor History January 23, 1937: The Soviet Union tried 17 Communists for sympathizing with Trotsky and plotting to overthrow Stalin in the trial of the anti-Soviet Trotskyist center. The trial was one of the many Stalinist show trials that occurred from 1936 to 1938 to purge the government of anyone opposed to Stalin’s rule.

And yes, one can have the #NuancedOpinion of disliking #Assange and #WikiLeaks yet condemn the #ShowTrial pushed against him.

Cuz it's a dangerous precedent against #Journalism.

https://youtu.be/P6bVl47kdNk?t=1859

and the entire #ShowTrial against #Assange exist as a #ChillingEffect making the #USgov the final censor of all #media and the ones who decide what is #journalism and what isn't.
