@RomaniaMare1918 As a Canadian with deep ties to Romania, I celebrate multicultural life. The opportunity of experiencing our fellow humans expressing themselves with joy is a delight. The more we appreciate and welcome diverse cultural expressions of being human, the more enriched we become.

More Africans are coming to Romania!!! This is Brașov. It is supposed to be a Romanian city. This is not a place for Africans to come to busk and display their culture on our streets!

Because if they told the truth they would have to explain climate change is happening faster than expected and society will soon collapse, so then they would be forced to demand the end of capitalism in order to save our species from extinction. And their boss wouldn’t like that.

My birthplace and entire North East India is facing serious flash floods and landslides for the last 5 days. This is climate emergency. Why media are not talking about this? 😔

I would not have believed it when my teacher first told us about climate change in 1988 if they said so few serious people would be vocal about it 37 years later. I would have laughed in their face.

Here's how institutions are protecting democracy from the hybrid warfare of tyrannies. Democracies are growing teeth and learning to punch back. Huge!

U.S. Special Envoy Rina Amiri@SE_AfghanWGH·
In the last three years, defying Afghan demands and international pressure, the Taliban have adopted progressively extreme gender discriminatory policies, eliminating female agency, productivity, mobility, education, participation in public space, access to protection mechanisms, and even the ability to speak in public. This new policy banning women from medical institutes threatens to complete the erasure of women by depriving them of access to health services, including maternal and life-saving medical care. It is inhumane and logic defying to prevent the emergence of women health practitioners & prohibit women & girls from being treated by male doctors. This policy has an impact on every mother, every unborn infant—boys and girls—and the very future of Afghanistan. (1/2)

One crucial fact that neither Lukashenka nor Putin can take away from us, Belarusians, is this: the overwhelming majority of Belarusians want independence. They want to see #Belarus as a sovereign nation. Despite all the treaties and concepts they impose, our people do not want this control.

8 soldiers of Svoboda Battalion of the 4th National Guard Rubizh Brigade defended a strongpoint near the village of Spirne near Siversk for 67 days - from July 10 to September 16. For the last three weeks, they fought in complete encirclement and fought off the last enemy assault when Russian assaultmen stormed their position and pelted their dugout with grenades. The commander of the position was a 25-year-old platoon leader, Senior Lieutenant Vladyslav Stotskyi. Volunteer soldiers from Svoboda Battalion fought alongside Vladyslav. All of them had no military experience before 2022. On September 16, a Russian assault team attacked the strongpoint with two tanks, two MT-LBs, and an infantry fighting vehicle, from which an entire assault platoon disembarked. Svoboda Warriors repelled the attack and destroyed the entire enemy assault team. Military correspondent Yurii Butusov recorded this interview with Vladyslav a day after he left the strongpoint on the orders of the command and led 6 soldiers out, so he is full of emotions. The body of his brother-in-arms Oleksandr Khomiak, who died a brave death in close combat with the Russians, could not be taken out of the encirclement. I highly recommend to watch this interview. It shows the incredible efforts and sacrifices Ukrainian soldiers are making to defend every meter of their homeland. Everyone needs to know this.

❗️The United Kingdom has announced a new sanctions package, the most extensive ever imposed on Russia's "shadow fleet," which has transported billions of pounds worth of oil and oil products over the past year alone, the government's press service reported. The sanctions are aimed at limiting "the Kremlin’s ability to fund illegal war in Ukraine and malign activity worldwide". The total number of oil tankers sanctioned by the UK is 73, more than any other nation. The list includes such tankers as Belgorod, Bratsk, Krasnoyarsk, Kemerovo, Kolomna, Antarktika and others. AlfaStrakhovaniye and VSK, the insurance companies that serviced this fleet, were also sanctioned. The British government emphasized that 46 countries and the EU supported the initiative against the "shadow fleet". "Russia’s oil revenues are fuelling the fires of war and destruction in Ukraine. We will work with our G7 partners and beyond to exert relentless pressure on the Kremlin, disrupt the flow of money into its war chest, erode its military machine, and constrain its malign behaviour worldwide," Foreign Secretary, David Lammy said.

Canada under Pierre Poilievre: Retirement security gone. CBC gone. Environmental protections gone. Rebates gone. Universal healthcare gone. Dental care gone. Sensible gun laws gone. Affordable childcare gone. Proven and experienced leadership gone. #NeverPoilievre 🇨🇦

@tommysantos14 Your comments apply to far more places than the USA. Writing from Canada with a partner in Romania, I can tell you that I'll be watching everywhere. Thanks for your work.

I am not leaving X. I am committed to growing my accounts and my reach on both X and Bluesky. I don’t believe in perpetuating echo chambers. The truth dies in echo chambers, and my place is wherever people are lying to other people - and right now, that’s on X. I was really small on here not even one month ago. Today, I am less small, and like many of you I intend to be a voice to be reckoned with, and a defender of the truth, by the next election. I also plan on putting my money where my mouth is and starting projects that call out disinformation and the people that spread it. More to come on those over the next few months. Please follow me if you’re ready to fight for what’s true. We have a lot of work to do in the next four years, and no political party is coming to the rescue. 🇺🇸

Scary thought: a Poilievre led government would end subsidies to mainstream media and defund the CBC greatly diminishing the information economy in Canada and making us dependent on social media platforms owned by American billionaires for our news. Watch ⬇️ #cdnpoli
