Cocktails & Capitalism - an anticapitalist podcast

BREAKING: UC Davis has divested from apartheid Israel. The bill prevents the ASUCD’s $20 mill budget from being spent “on companies complicit in the occupation and genocide.” This is huge. University divestment efforts played a massive role in ending South African apartheid.

Meatpacking workers at the JBS slaughterhouse in Greeley, Colorado, voted 99% to authorize a strike, says Caitlyn Clark, director at Essential Workers for Democracy (@EW4Democracy). This despite the barriers bosses “try to use to divide workers and prevent them from organizing.”

All of you morons who thought Trump was going to keep us out of war can go fuck yourselves. Trump has been planning to attack Iran since last spring. ground.news/article/trump-…

Baristas are locking arms in front of lines of trucks. This distribution center is Starbucks’ largest on the East Coast, which is why we’re showing up to send a message. We're ready to continue escalating our ULP strike until Starbucks does the right thing. #NoContractNoCoffee

“It's so fucked but of course they took Chris & beat him! The same police that beat & arrested us for amazon organizing were trained by the same lOF that beat & illegally kidnapped him now” A fellow ALU founder shared these words re: the violent @IDF abduction of Chris Smalls

BREAKING: The Senate has passed the reconciliation bill, gutting health care, food assistance, clean energy, and more in order to fund massive tax cuts for the ultra-rich.

Israel wants to add Syria and Lebanon to the "CIRCLE OF PEACE AND NORMALIZATION” in the words of Israel’s Foreign Minister Gideon Saar. This isn't diplomacy. It's gaslighting on a geopolitical scale.

@Relaxedllama Yes, no disagreements here. But those who thought Trump would be anti-war were so fucking wrong

@CocktCapitalism The US governments have always fed themselves on war like a chaos vampire. No president coming out of the duopoly will ever be against war or harming civilians.

“BuT TRuMp is LeSs LiKeLy tO puLL uS iNtO WaR !” … SHUT THE FUCK UP

Israel publishing footage of them feeding the Gaza flotilla activists in an attempt to thwart their crime of kidnapping humanitarians and pushing propaganda that they’re a beacon of peace. Make sure you stay informed about what happens to them . And most importantly, Gaza is starving. Israel is funding these disgusting gangs that loot and terrorise the Palestinian people forbidding them from actually receiving aid . Terror cult. Don’t fall for their antics.

Karam built a barbershop to support his family in Gaza. Then airstrikes took everything—his home, his shop, his stability. Now he’s fighting to keep a roof over his sick parents’ heads. Just $2,000 can keep them housed. tinyurl.com/mtnnndn9

@BrosManney @UNOCHA Where did you find the first video of the bombing?

Gaza, Palestine! L: Israel bombing and killing Hamas fighters namely children and babies R: China delivering aid, food, fuel, water to starving children and babies @UNOCHA

“I just want at least one of my children to be alive” “I swear I dressed them up to get them out of here” Hussein Odeh, Palestine’s weightlifting champion, lived in northern Gaza. He left to get a vehicle to evacuate his family to Gaza City, but returned to find his home destroyed by an Israeli airstrike and his family buried under the rubble.

Israel is starving patients in Gaza. Hospitals can’t feed the wounded. This is not collateral damage—it’s a war crime. Silence is complicity. End the blockade now. tinyurl.com/5n8z5tf5

🚨 FBI agents—or people claiming to be—showed up at the homes of multiple climate activists’ in Boston. This is not normal. This is how authoritarianism creeps in: one knock at a time. @WBUR tinyurl.com/cd7pnss8

The Art of the Bribe

Woshe is fighting back with a civil suit while working with others to make Pittsburgh the greatest place to live. She’s a bike-riding, van-living, queer, sustainable gardener, social worker, and activist. Help her cover her steep legal costs if you can! linktr.ee/woshe

While being volently arrested during the Jan 18 raid on Weelaunee, Woshe was forced to listen as police gunned down Tortuguita. Now she faces absurd RICO and domestic terrorism charges. She just sued the officer behind the raid. Help her win! linktr.ee/woshe
