these italians may in fact get GDPRed or university ethics boarded out of this particular dataset but these protections won't work against more malicious commercial actors who don't bother to actually describe what they've done
food, holiday
mutter paneer is red, white, and green, and therefore I declare it to be more Christmasy than whatever folks who actually celebrate this holiday are eating 🎄

Brazilian politics, Bolsonaro, fascism, transmysia, homomysia, anti-indigenous action
On his first day in office, Bolsonaro is taking away the rights of LGBTQIA+ and indigenous people https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-brazils-bolsonaro-targets-minorities-on-first-day-in-office/
Granted, there is some chance that this will be reversed in court but keep in mind that a) that is not now, b) there is no guarantee of that and c) Bolsonaro announced that he wants to overthrow democracy with military force, in which case courts become useless.
