The broader left needs to come to terms with the fact that if pointing out hypocrisy was enough to save the world by itself, we would have done it already a long time ago. (He says as a professional 'look at this hypocrisy' guy.)

Albanese says Israel’s blockade of aid & food is “completely unacceptable” & their excuses are “without credibility”. Agree. But are the “bombs” acceptable, @albomp.bsky.social? The “bullets”? How about “burning men, women, children & babies alive”. ACCEPTABLE? Your SILENCE speaks volumes.

This whole thread. COVID did not emerge from a lab and the big discussion we should be having is how to improve our response to crises like it in the future and what systemic reforms we need to make. But NYT allowed itself to be a tool of right-wing propaganda, helping derail those discussions.

I wish our newly re-elected Albanese Labor Govt would take a principled stand and oppose Israel's murder of men, women and children in Gaza. 1. Recognise Palestine. 2. Condemn Israel's genocide in Gaza. 3. Sanction Israel. #auspol #RecognisePalestine #FreePalestine #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide

Australia is complicit in Israel's ongoing genocidal assault on Gaza. Anyone claiming this is not the case is lying. Australia must recognise Palestine. End its military support of genocide. And introduce sanctions against Israel. #auspol #GazaGenocide #RecognisePalestine #FreePalestine 🇵🇸

The Tony Blair Institute's report on climate change is pro-fossil fuels, pro-CCS, pro-AI, pro-carbon markets, pro-nature-based solutions, and pro-nuclear. These are not solutions to the climate crisis. But they are everything his clients are asking of him. reddmonitor.substack.com/p/tony-blair...

This is Linda Martin. A few years ago, the FBI seized her life savings: $40,200. The kicker: She was never charged with a crime—and the government couldn’t tell her why it took her money. Martin is far from the first. But she is trying to make sure she is the last. A thread.

Millions of Soviet Communists—an estimated 20 million—died during World War II for absolutely nothing, as they could simply have teamed up with one of their number There's a point at which a lie about an event in history is so egregiously offensive it should separate you from polite society forever
