In an alternate universe, we could have gotten Bernie & Corbyn, but Liberals, rather than uniting with progressives to defeat a new rise of Fascism, did everything they could to destroy the Left instead. All the disaster you see today, are the rotting fruits of Liberals Labour.

The left had a response to trump from right back in 2016 and that was bernie sanders. He matched Trumps xenohobia with simple economic populism - but the DNC decided it would rather defeat socialism than allow a genuinely people-powered candidate to win the presidency.

Reform will win in Britain. Keir Starmer is, of course, going to likewise learn absolutely nothing about fascism, neoliberalism, and supporting genocide.

“Where people face repression and rights violations every day, activists see a clearer connection... We can’t talk about the climate if we can’t even go out on the street and hold a sign. Climate activism and human rights are united.”

“On many occasions, [Israeli] soldiers had to ‘run over terrorists, dead and alive, in the hundreds.’”
THEY BULLDOZED HUNDREDS OF PALESTINIANS ALIVE—but the focus of the story?
It’s on the trauma experienced by Israeli soldiers. Look at the pic used 👇🏼

Here's the moment Lidia Thorpe shouted after King Charles III delivered his speech in Parliament House just after 2pm. She can be heard saying, "This is not your land. You are not my king. You are not our king". #auspol

A quick reminder that Noah Crane (19) is still in prison for allegedly buying a mobile phone for a protest that never happened.
He's been held in HMP Forest Bank since August and will likely remain there until his trial in February 2025.
Under new conspiracy laws he could receive a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.

Because the people who tweet these final words are Palestinians.
Our media outlets and politicians haven’t even been subtle, have they?
They may well have screamed at the top of their lungs that Palestinian life has no meaningful worth.
Alonso Gurmendi@Alonso_GD
How have we normalised reading people’s final words in tweet form? How is it possible that this causes no moral outrage? No change in policy? Especially in a country that rightly memorialised the 9/11 SMS & voice messages as a symbol of absolute tragedy

The climate justice movement must be a decolonial, anti capitalist, antifascist movement that fights against genocide as well as ecocide, that demands liberation and justice for all, and a system that puts people and planet over profit. 3/4

It’s time for Labour to remember its roots and reinstate the right to peaceful protest.

"Not only have they abandoned us but the whole Western media was complicit, and is still complicit, about the genocide... It didn't end. It didn't stop. It's still ongoing."
Powerful words from Gaza journalist @hind_gaza to me.
