4:03 pm
take a listen. 2 8 on. 8 the . 8 8 8 every day and fear was that it wasn't due today. it was going to be the target, the victim. you know, you weren't going to have to stop anything humiliation. you learn not crying. you just get harder. and yeah, you learn to shut down. ah, i couldn't talk a word of english. i talked cree and i was abused for that hit and made to try to talk english. i lost my language directly to the strapping you spoke it. within a year, i lost all of it. 8 is what i used to him. i ill drug occurring at night,
4:04 pm
the principal to take him to the hospital. he didn't, after about 2 weeks, my brother was in so much pain. he was going out his mind. i pleaded with the principal for days to take him to the doctor. ah, they started to actually take advantage of me and abuse me. not one. not too many, many people for very long time until i was 16. i held everything in and didn't tell anybody for 20 years now, it was from 1912 until the mid 970. that these facilities were in operation. and a lot of anger is rising. now there have been for roman catholic churches located in indigenous areas of british columbia that have recently been burned. there have been some other church burnings in other parts of the country as anger is clearly rising as revelations about these residential schools for indigenous children. continue to surface, we now have the prime minister of canada coming forward and calling on the roman
4:05 pm
catholic church to take responsibility for the horrendous things that are being revealed. certainly an ugly chapter and candidates history. thanks pretty much for bring this through all of our rt correspondence. caleb logan will activist lauraly williams believes canada still has a long way to go and amending past mistakes with this information as well. there's a lot of angry. this is the 1st time the world is actually being made, but actually accepting an acknowledging. and there's still a lot of people who aren't accepting it. who aren't you? i think what needs to be done is not indigenous. people need to stop being racers. the government needs stopping race, is that what needs to be done? or people have done a lot of healing or work around is trauma doing this work for
4:06 pm
a while, we knew she was going to happen at some point. we've always known that those children for their we've always known then genocide, non indigenous people. they need to do their work because they're the ones who are causing harm to us. to this day, the genocide still happening in different forms. a lot of miracle is unusual lived q and a session this year clocked in almost 4 hours, the president prevailed. he opted for russia's button to cope with vaccine. said that for social media must obey local laws. if they want to operate in the country, constantine raj comp takes us through what else was said that let me finally reveal he was vaccinated was supposed to be. so again, back in april, when he got the shot, he refrained from revealing what was the what was his shot. he said he would not
4:07 pm
want to advertise for any particular friend saying that all 3 russian vaccines are equally effective. but now when he was asked again, what was it he for vaccination and russian, you know, probably that some of the regions in this country and post limited mandatory vaccination, we could say for certain groups of people especially that was involved in public sector is in attainment bars, restaurants, etc. so let me put in, make it clear that he is not a supporter of a blanket nationwide vaccination mandatory vaccination in russia. although he backed up those original governors in those regions where they impose this mandatory limited mandatory vaccination for certain groups of people. and the russian president said that he's a pain. and this is the only way to overcome this new 3rd way of a corona virus. that has engulfed russia recently. now,
4:08 pm
speaking to international about international topics, he said that the times of unipolar world has long passed at the western nations. most gets used to the fact that there are other nations on the global stage and putting, maintain that regardless of the sanctions against russia, the country is going to keep strengthening. and in fact, he said that were there were a lot of positive things out of those st. transfer for instance, low national debt. and he also said, no, speaking about it, that russia's military capability are at all time high level. now. now let me put and also gave a lot of attention to the recent incident in the black sea with a british ship that entered russian territorial waters off the coast of crimea. he said that this was a complex provocation. hillson noted that he doesn't think that this was simply to tease russia, but rather he believes that the british navy wanted to catch russia's defense
4:09 pm
capabilities and see how the russian navy and asian in this region are going to react. so let's have a listen. will i need to destroy the waters pursuing firstly military objectives using a reconnaissance aircraft, a spine, military actions to suppress provocations they were exploring possible weak points, looking at how things work and where they're located. we saw new their plan, so we find some information that we deemed appropriate with the maybe i'll just let a secret slip. i'm sure the military will, excuse me. while on this subject, vladimir putin also mentioned his recent summer twin joe biden. he wondered out loud, what was the need for such a high profile meeting since? right after it, the watch and its allies are doing something that hostile for those teachers in the meeting has just taken place in geneva. i wonder why such a provocation was necessary to what is this all about?
4:10 pm
in order to emphasize that they do not respect the choices of the cry means that they do not recognize something. well, just don't recognize it. why do you also need to carry outside provocations? at least we know what we're fighting for, for our own territory for ourselves, for our future. it is not we who came to them thousands of kilometers away by water . it is they who showed up at our borders and violated our territorial waters. another interesting remark here, let me put in a said that even if the russian military had sunk the british worship, this wouldn't have meant the start of the 3rd world war because he added, there is no way the west comes out victorious out of any possible confrontation with russia and those countries know this according to let me put you on a different subject who is also asked if there are any, to pull a plug on, foreign social media platforms in russia. and the president said that there are no such plans whatsoever. but he said that there are issues with those platforms,
4:11 pm
especially when they ignore the russian law and do not comply with you. so if they work in our country and on decent money, they must have been our laws. so 1st of all, we demand that international platforms open, that representative offices, legal entities, with which you can at least conduct a dialogue. we tell them if you have a child pornography or instructions on suicide or how to make molotov cocktails, you have to remove it. but they don't even want to listen to us. that's not right. why don't report. and also has said that russia simply follows the suit of other nations that also impose certain regulations on social media. now, on the left here is note, let me put and was asked, what kind of songs he sings when on vacation. and he answered that since he is a russian, he's music tastes are not far from other russians. he said he, every now and then hums. russians and times of in soviet songs, which he finds, quote unquote,
4:12 pm
beautiful and meaningful. the red cross say's its willing to deliver supplies of the sputnik covert job to conflict zones or run the world. but to use the russian shot in those areas, the vaccine will need the approval of local authorities. that's according to the charities president. there are some 35 conflicts owns around the world where the red cross is strengthening the health systems by working with government to combat the pandemic. of course, we're exploring the possibility of supplying those regions with vaccines. we will deliver sputnik v or any other vaccine approved by the authorities in a specific context if they're available. well, that's been estimated, telling conflict hit low income countries that 9 out of 10 people are unlikely to get a shot this year. while highest conflict rate regions may not reach mosse mex a nation until 2023 humanitarian organizations have recently been highlighting the problem of global vaccine inequality. we discuss the issue with the head of the red
4:13 pm
cross regional delegation in moscow. they come with 19 has hit everybody around the world and continues to affect life for them. i don't know. helium got on the organization working mostly in a conflict, i think it's on we are discussing our partners and government ensuring the access to people in particular in complex ration. those people moving near is particularly difficult to reach. there is a global sending the shortage to direction what we hear a lot about nations trying to hold connections, of course, giving the prior to for the nation allocated for the population in charge of florida responsible for that regard. what i said,
4:14 pm
the international community 1st course is calling for globally equitable access to the us in getting a vaccine is opening up trouble opportunities for russians. those who have a job will no longer have to undergo p. c. r. cooper, test to travel to turkey. a hugely popular destination for the countries. holidaymakers ortiz elliot trunk. oh, can tell us more good news for russia. vaccine developers coming out of turkey because the international recognition and trust for what they've developed is growing. and the proof of that are the latest words of the turkish foreign minister . never though childish glue, who has just confirmed that russian citizen to have been vaccinated with any of the russian main jobs that have 2 components can enter turkey freely without any tests or other things that may have to be required at the border. as long as they
4:15 pm
provide the needed certificate of vaccination back in russia, just to remind you so far apart from sputnik b, which is already being exported to dozens of countries around the world. russian scientists have developed 3 more vaccines. and 2 of them have 2 components when it comes to split, the v anchor rise counting on it. turkey has experienced massive surgeon new covert cases in the last few months. now the situation is becoming better, partially because of the russian vaccine that was delivered to turkey. earlier this month, i'm talking about the 1st shipment because of the difficult situation with corona virus in this country. flights from russia to turkey had been banned for a while, however, a week ago, they were restored and rushing towards headed to turkey on mass. now here's what we heard from the russian foreign minister, jerky law. rob on what the 2 countries have done together to deal with the pandemic
4:16 pm
. but at the same time, keep up the pace of tourist exchange between turkey and russia. to do this, we've agreed to increase corporation in efforts to contain the impact of the current of ours and agreed that the use of the russian sputnik fee vaccine and plans to produce it in turkey will help stabilize the health situation in the country. and this in turn, will allow us to activity diverse, another of our joint projects and talking about tourism well apart from allowing rushing taurus that have been vaccinated with any of the russian jobs apart from giving the green light to split b. there are also plans for production of russian vaccines in this country. that is still work in progress. but we're expecting that agreement to be reached between moscow and anchor off in the near future as well. 6 years behind bars. that is the sentence 100 done to a woman in the netherlands fund guilty of spreading islamic state propaganda. the
4:17 pm
sentence is double. prosecutors have been demanding the 32 year old, whose identity is not being revealed, distributed a large amount of the chair of its propaganda via the telegraph messaging in 2019, among the crimes the court fun. she incited people to commit to her attacks and trained herself and others on there. the woman also shed 2 videos in which prisoners of war were brutally murdered. she's provided one of those videos with our own humiliating comment tree. by doing so, she abused the personal dignity of the deceased people, and that is a war crime. the woman was also ordered to undergo psychiatric treatment. now she was said by the court to suffer from a psychological impulse disorder. we discussed the case with dr. david low senior research fellow at leads beckett, university law school who specializes in terrorism security studies. he told us why
4:18 pm
he believes the sentence was doubled to what prosecutors had demanded on what it means to the larger war naval propaganda. mostly there was the inside that says intox, but there's encouragement to make him devise explosive devices which with the suicide best, as well as encouragement to finance. i think the court looked at those 3 serious as you just one on and so from the 3 having resulted in doubling the sentence the prosecutors wanted, i think if you look good guy. so really that group in particular, has been the most successful in it's how, how is being able to use multi media from social media, its own websites, its own production of videos. it's all production of online magazine, how it communicated it's message has been very, very effective for many, many years. i certainly impacted all the terrorist organizations and not just those room is based like, i'll tell you that. i've seen a,
4:19 pm
with extreme fall right groups. the copy the, the effectiveness that ice was handled. so the way to do, obviously, right for this offensive is on telegrams. you've seen them go into more deeply encrypted sites on that, which, you know, it's a hard thing to stop it altogether. while i think states can do counter that, nodes have come out with another county narrative that they come out with. and i think that's the best way forward. a us court dismiss this week to monopoly lawsuit filed against facebook. back in december. the judge said there wasn't enough evidence to prove the social media giant was a monopoly. these allegations, which do not even provide an estimated actual figure or range for facebook market share at any point over the past 10 years, ultimately fall short of plausibly establishing that facebook holds market power
4:20 pm
replaced the decisions, recognize the defects and the government complaints filed against facebook we compete fairly every day to earn people's time and attention will continue to deliver great products for the people and businesses that used our services. the court ruling saw a facebook shares search by more than 4 percent, and that figure is significant. it lifted the company's market value above the one trillion dollar mark for the 1st time. facebook is now the 5th u. s. company to hit that particular monetary milestone joining apple, microsoft, amazon, on google. well, the federal trade commission, along with 48 states, filed the lawsuit. so we said, december accusing the company of abusing its market power in social networking and for acting in a monopolistic way. they argue the company simply bought out its competition by something of instagram in 2012 and what's up 2 years later, the judge ruled prosecutors should have blocked those acquisitions of the time if
4:21 pm
they had a problem with them. well, the court's decision is clearly a significant blow to efforts by anti trust officials to rein in the tech joins today's development in the f t. c. case against facebook shows that anti trust reform is urgently needed. congress needs to provide additional tools and resources while anti trust in forces to go after big tech companies engaging in anti competitive conduct. so i've got a palo experts to help us make sense of all this. i'm very happy to welcome onto the program. the host of the pseudo intellectual podcast, lauren chin, political activist, anthony rogers, right on host of harvison reality check, curry horace, and you're all very welcome to the program. kerry, can we kick off with you? if this lawsuit has been about raining in facebook, it's really have the opposite reaction. no, it's a member of the elite trillion dollar club. is it fair to say the moves backfires
4:22 pm
spectacularly spectacularly? i think it's probably under sit under stating it. for sure. you're absolutely right . what's not to love about a massive monopoly, if you are a government agency before you had to hope everyone had one of these to be able to track the world. now you've got billions of people on facebook. it's not a monopoly. you've got what's app and everything else all sutured together. the problem is for the regular person as we heard in that sound bite earlier. why facebook plays on a level playing field? really? i'm not sure where my ball is or the net at this point. so this is a big problem for those of us who want to be able to have a free exchange of ideas on a platform that decides what's ok and what's not. lauren, the market clearly see facebook is being vindicated. is that how you see it? absolutely not,
4:23 pm
and i want to be clear that that is not what the court is saying. either you actually look at the grounds for the missile. the cases, the judge has made clear that there were simply not enough proof given by the f t c to qualify facebook behavior as monopolistic. but that does not mean that more proof cannot be found. and actually the fcc has now been given 30 days to sure of their arguments. and i feel like if we look at facebook, not only acquisition of whatsapp and instagram, in which case i would agree with the child, but something should have been done about that sooner. at the time, if these law makers had a problem with it, but we see that face because also engage in anti competitive behavior, such as blocking links to other social media sites within its own messaging function, which i, i struggled to see how that cannot be seen as anti competitive behavior, but a lot of people are right in saying that although this is a setback, this is just beginning and we also cannot forget that right now the role of the course are playing is simply to interpret the laws and try to apply them justly but we also have another avenue if we wish to rein in bid tech power and that is
4:24 pm
through new legislation. there are a number of new built being passed specifically to target the growing power of, of big techs. so if this avenue fails, that does not mean the fight over the platforms like facebook is at an end. anthony, then just how big of a blow is this to anti trust efforts against the sector? would you have the likes of google or alphabet the per company of google sitting back looking at this, rubbing their hands in glee, thinking, you know, we've got to manipulate stick siege really on search engines thinking, you know, we've got off now on this. we've got a little bit more leeway here. yeah, i mean, you know, we're talking about the acquisition of different platforms. we also talk about the acquisition of law makers through the lobbying efforts of the likes of google, the amazon's. and of course, the facebook, if you remember during the tenure, former president iraq obama, one of the people who are the person to visit him, the most in the oval office or white house, at least for google executives. so there is,
4:25 pm
there seems to be immense influence on capitol hill as the previous guess was, was just speaking about and it just, the, i'm, our congress in the united states is simply an, except moraneus with this issue. i mean, you know, and not to be ages, but, you know, older members of congress who simply didn't have any idea what to do about this mega group and what facebook has become. so, echoing what, what everyone said, we do have a very precarious situation here where one corporation is deciding what information gets to whom. and when it gets to whom and how it gets to whom, if at all we, we have as the sister just said, seen instances where people would postings and without them, even knowing it would just be taken down without explanation by 6. so i'm hopefully, you know, i know that new york state attorney general makisha james is very able and very good at what she does on i imagine is reviewing the case and how they can make
4:26 pm
a stronger case. i also understand that there's someone in the bite in administration that's doing the same. so yes, this isn't over, but it did expose the preparation of our government and at least you know, i'm going to use a word you don't to hear too often the u. s. congress there seems to be bi partisan concern. so maybe we can go off that curry can i put the point to the facebook. facebook executives have me had that done the years. they argue that they are just one of a, an option in a galaxy of social media companies to take talk among them, 50000000 users in the u. s. alone. so why is facebook a monopoly that? well, 1st of all, the problem, the f t c had is there's no description of what is the amount of users that comprises a monopoly. we don't know what that number is because it hasn't been defined. therefore we can't say yes or no. yeah, i should always has 4 times the users of tick tock, almost 200000000. yeah,
4:27 pm
you're right. okay, so we all know the game and we all know what's going on in an interview. i did with mark soccer berg in 2007. he has not come back on since he talked about back in the days of my space. if anyone remember, sad, vaguely, he talked about facebook becoming an entire new ecosystem, echoing what used to be a oh, well, we do all your shopping there. you have friends because you can't really a friends in real life as well. you're clumsy. now, you can have as many friends as you want and you can buy things in. it'll have a i that talks to you and do. and here it is. here we are there today, and it tracks every molecule, every odor, if much molecule that you emit your pheromones, your thought patterns. there are beautiful, calculated organized systems of who you are, what you like, what you dislike, everything you ever want to know. all of it deliciously stored in utah by the square mile in massive facilities. so what's not to love?
4:28 pm
if you're the guy that owns lauren, just to pick up a point you man, i'm, we're just running on time. so the judge said that you can't just rule on speculation. will the plaintiffs be able to firm up their case? it in the what the month they've got to appeal. i am hoping that the answer is yes, because the evidence is absolutely out there. and don't forget that a monopoly is not defined on whether other competitors exist. it's determined by market share and right now facebook has overwhelming market. sure. not only of social media users, but also of key c t consumer information, which is actually the, the main way they get their money. so the information is out there. consumer rights groups have been trying to warn which leaders about the for a long time. i'm hoping that the fcc managers to get in contact with at least some of the people who actually have been studying this for years and years. anthony, in an email some years ago, mark circle berg said that it's better to buy than compete. do you think with
4:29 pm
this ruling he's going to change his mind anytime soon? oh, absolutely not. mark fucker berg is one of the most intransigent people and we've, as we've seen, even in congressional hearings when he's getting grilled, he's calm, cool, and collected. he has an army of lawyers, is this or is just saying an army of lobby as i don't? i don't think why. why would he change? you know, now until we get new legislation until he starts to lose, he's not going to change. and this is the goliath that we, we have to contend with because as we've just stated, one of the. busy more lucrative products right now in the world is the data of people in dr berg is all over it. so we're really gonna have to keep our eye on this one, carrie just to find where to but perhaps to put you in this way. politicians benefited from facebook for many years now. those same politicians, you know, they're getting essentially high and mighty against that. is there a width of something just off about that as well? well, it's just a political theater. if there was a serious move to shut this thing down, break it apart, discipline it, bull,
4:30 pm
whip it back into its proper appropriate size. it would simply be done. you've used the word terrorism and suddenly anything goes 4th amendment gone, freedom of speech gone. so there is a new till a t for the united states government writ large to keep facebook large. it's a free, oregon, the you and i voluntarily step on a mark zuckerberg lawn for free. he makes a profit off of that, but the data mining is on equal to anything and all of human history, the pharaohs. what a loved this setup. we've been speaking to the host of pseudo intellectual podcast, lauren chin, political activists. anthony rogers right on host of harrison's reality check. curry harrison. it's always a pleasure to see you. thank you very much for your time and your thoughts or if you'd like to.
