Ele estava cobrindo os protestos quando foi abordado pelos policiais que disseram que ele não estava preso, só detido e que não poderia ficar ali e que se voltasse, ai sim seria preso. Antes de liberá-lo os policiais anotaram as informações dele. Um correspondente nacional da CNN... 🤷🏾‍♀️

Foi há precisamente 30 anos. A 10 de Junho de 1995, um grupo de neonazis saiu para “caçar pretos no Bairro Alto”. Assassinaram Alcindo Monteiro, um jovem de 27 anos que tinha saído para dançar com amigos. Não esquecemos que o racismo mata. Nunca paramos de combatê-lo.

Os neofascistas atacam os livros, o teatro e quem faz a cultura. Fazem-no porque acham que podem. O Governo do PSD retirou do relatório de segurança interna a ameaça da extrema direita. É o maior risco à nossa democracia. Solidariedade com o teatro d’A Barraca. Vamos à luta ✊

há dois racismos em pt: o endógeno, recalcado e saudosista; e o importado, pastiche grotesca de organizações supremacistas estrangeiras. curiosamente, e não desculpando o primeiro, aquele que comete atos de violência parece ser este último. ie, o racismo violento é o menos português dos racismos.

One thing most of these tech oligarchs have in common is that they mostly got lucky with one idea just before or just after the dotcom bubble burst, and they've coasted on that success ever since. They mostly grow through buyouts rather than innovation. Yet they're treated as oracles and sages.
