@Lambo the shocking bit to me is that the cases detailed in the report are … not that shocking. This sort of abuse and utter lack of oversight is endemic to the entire system.

I have been shouted at over the phone for half an hour without interruption (at that point I didn’t care anymore and had put the receiver on my desk while inviting colleagues to witness the spectacle). my livelihood has been threatened. postdoc research associates frequently broke down and cried. neither advisory boards, ombudspeople nor, ultimately, the foundation and federal government responsible for appointing and removing directors intervened.

Also, it must be noted that solidarity among the victims of bullying was practically inexistent.

Former pastor Robert Morris indicted on child sexual abuse charges

religionnews.com/2025/03/13/fo

Robert Preston Morris, 63, has been charged with five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child.

Morris was known to be politically active. The church hosted President Donald Trump on its Dallas campus in 2020 for a discussion on race relations and the economy.

Morris could face up to 20 years in prison for each of the five charges.

URGENT: According to the Prisoners Media Office, Attorney Ghaida Qasem from #Nazareth visited Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, in "Ofer" prison after over 70 days in detention, including 14 days in the notorious "Sde Teiman" detention center.

She reported that Dr. Abu Safiya was first held in "Sde Teman" for 14 days in isolation, then transferred to "Ofer," where he spent another 25 days in solitary confinement.

His longest interrogation lasted 13 consecutive days, with each session spanning 8-10 hours. He endured severe #abuse, #torture, and relentless #brutality throughout.

Before his arrest, Abu Safiya’s son was martyred in Gaza and buried temporarily near Kamal Adwan #Hospital. His first question during the visit was whether his son had received a proper and dignified burial. He was also deeply affected by his mother’s passing 10 days after his arrest.

Qasem noted: "He had no idea that his case had gained such widespread local, Arab, and international attention. Prisoners are almost completely isolated inside the prison, and they do not know what is happening outside, nor are they aware of developments in Gaza."

Regarding the torture and repression Abu Safiya recounted, Qasem said: "If we are talking about 'Sde Teman,' it is a slaughterhouse in every sense of the word. The torture, violations, and starvation there are unprecedented. We are talking about prisoners who have been shackled for 10 months, prisoners with amputated limbs without medical care, elderly detainees who are bound and blindfolded, detainees who have lost 70 to 90 kilograms of weight. In addition, there is the extreme cold—prisoners are held in open cages, exposed to the wind and rain, forced to sit on the ground at all times, forbidden from speaking to one another, praying, or reading the #Quran."

She continued: "In addition to the physical torture, there is psychological torment, as intelligence officers inform prisoners that their entire families have been martyred."

The occupation authorities attempted to charge him but, after 45 days of interrogations and torture, failed to find any evidence. His case was reverted to "unlawful combatant" status, stripping him of all legal rights, including representation and formal charges, allowing indefinite detention.

Despite his suffering, Abu Safiya remains in high spirits. He emphasized: “A person is their history, and their history is a stance that is taken and studied.”

Last month, zionist media aired footage of Abu Safiya, shackled and visibly exhausted, in a Channel 13 interview—the first since his arrest on December 27, 2024. This followed the occupation's decision to classify him as an "unlawful combatant" and reports of his torture, mistreatment, and medical neglect.

@br00t4c that is nothing new.

#GitHub, like any public platform that allows to store data, can be #abused for malicious use.

Had to leave @librewolf Matrix group due to it getting spammed & people participating in this group getting invite spam including myself.

Apparently there is no option to counter this in @element or in the @matrix specs? Maybe it could be a bit less annoying if the room was invite only?

Anyways, I'm not willing to deal with this abuse & my only option was to leave this room for now. Pretty sad & angry about this type of behaviour still happening.
