@tech Meanwhile, Google's #Gemini #AI can't be trusted or used for adding a hundred or so holidays per year to #Google Calendar internally at Google. <sarcasm>

Google Calendar users are angrily calling the company out after noticing that certain events like #Pridemonth are no longer highlighted by default in Google calendar. #BlackHistoryMonth, #IndigenousPeopleMonth, #JewishHeritage, #HolocaustRemembranceDay, and #HispanicHeritage have also been removed

Google, "Some years ago, the Calendar team started manually adding a broader set of cultural moments in a wide number of countries around the world. We got feedback that some other events and countries were missing — and maintaining hundreds of moments manually and consistently globally wasn’t scalable or sustainable..."

Welcome to the Year of the Snake: TVBOY’s Satirical Take on Power

Street artist TVBOY is back with another striking political mural, this time taking aim at Donald Trump and Elon Musk. The artwork, titled Welcome to the Year of the Snake, is a satirical nod to Disney’s Robin Hood, with a clear message about power, manipulation, and ego. A Familiar Villain: Trump as Prince John The mural reimagines Trump as Prince John, the cowardly and petulant lion from the classic Disney film. Dressed in his signature red and white royal robe and golden crown, he […]

@gimulnautti @dangillmor @torvalds If you really want to 'blow the fuse' of #Russian trolls, yesterday, #HolocaustRemembranceDay , would've been the perfect day to mention that it wasn't #Russians who liberated the #Auschwitz survivors at the largest and most notorious #Nazi concentration camp, it was the 100th Army of the First #Ukrainian Front! auschwitz.org/en/history/liber

By the way, today is still a good day to #resist.

“At the end of the war, people said ‘Never Again’. For a lot of us, it was ‘Never Again’ for anyone, not just Jews. We in the United States have supported this war all along. We have the power to end it, to stop arming #Israel.”

#Palestinians deserve a life where they can feel safe, where they can have hope, where they can dream and imagine a future.”

On #HolocaustRemembranceDay, Irena Klepfisz, poet, writer, activist, Jewish Voice for Peace member, and child survivor of the Holocaust.

It’s #HolocaustRemembranceDay today; on Saturday, #ElonMusk told #Germany's #FarRight party to "move beyond" #Nazi guilt.

Fresh off a controversy over a gesture many saw as a Nazi salute, #tech billionaire Elon Musk appeared virtually at a campaign event for a far-right German political party on Saturday, where he urged listeners not to be ashamed of their country's history.

Today's post concerns #trans and #queer history during the #holocaust on the occasion of #holocaustremembranceday Queer and trans readers (most of my mutuals on Mastodon) are likely familiar with much of this, but cis/het people are often ignorant, and it may be useful to share with any in your life.

Revoluciana · Pt. 1 | Hidden Histories of the HolocaustWhy teach about book burning and its horrors, but to not teach about the content of the books?

I see ppl posting #ElonMusk was at #Auschwitz -therefore, his recent "gesture" isn't anti-Semitic. I was there..Is #Musk an anti-Semite? ..It's worse-he was..utterly detached. He cared about how he looked. Elon Musk's a sociopath -Julie Gray, DIL of Auschwitz victim

#HolocaustRemembranceDay I am remembering Jeannine Burk who survived the Holocaust. Her father was killed at Auschwitz. I met her at the National WWII Museum in New Orleans 5 yrs ago. She said she didn't like the deep divisions in U.S. society. She said: “It's happening again... I'm scared." Jeannine Burk died in July 2020. May she rest in peace. Her memory is a blessing. #NeverAgain #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay Learn more about Jeannine here: ww2online.org/view/jeannine-bu

We must never forget the Holocaust.

On #HolocaustRemembranceDay, we remember the six million Jewish women, men and children, hundreds of thousands of Roma, and all other victims of the Holocaust.

Today we mark the 80 years since the liberation of the Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz-Birkenau.

It is our duty to teach future generations about European history, including its darkest chapters.

Speaking of holocausts, it's Meatless Monday today too.
#HolocaustRemembranceDay

Just heard a #MSNBC reporter reporting live (Monday morning, Jan 27) at the concentration camp
in #Polan #Auschwitz #Auschwitz80 that only about 1 million names are known, but there are 5 million _unknown_ Jews from the #Holocaust #Holodomor He was shocked to find this out
