MASSIVE protest marching through Manhattan right now against the ICE arrest of Mahmoud Khalil. Endless stream of people chanting “No cops, no KKK, no fascist USA.” Easily a thousand people. Zero NYPD presence.

has Russia subverted Reagan and the US? the unfettered free market/ war on the working class has lead to undue Russian influence, some would say outright control, of the executive branch (with complete fealty from the other branches) of the US government.

Imagine living in a country where you can be proud of your government for forcing a genocidal, colonial, murderous state to be compelled to close their embassy. someday I'll make the reverse emigration Not something my grandparents could have ever imagined. #freePalestine www.rte.ie/news/ireland...

I don't care about football, but I'm kind of horrified that they're working with absolute fundamentalist ghouls. I have given up on the NBA due to the silence on the Palestinian genocide and cozy up the fossil fuel States. www.theguardian.com/football/liv...

One thing I haven't seen addressed as far as the horrible results of the election is that this is a natural consequence of gutting the US educational and welfare support system. it's rendered people incapable of critical thinking and voting in their own interests. idk that seems like a big cause.

this is a really compelling analysis of election results from the Guardian. My takeaway is that we need to be building more solidarity to create the society we need. Great to see someone use the data to highlight that. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

always great to remember the Irish history of solidarity with other colonized groups. on that note, f*** Trump.

anyone who is feeling the despair of this election and US imperialism in general should read some David Graeber. The world does not have to be this way and the stories the empire tells us about the world are not necessarily true. www.theguardian.com/books/2024/n...

anyone running for president who I respect would make threatening statements towards Dick Cheney, rather than wholeheartedly embracing his endorsement. Cheney is one side of the worst American living, Trump is the other, inheriting that title when Kissinger died. www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

I just need to shout into the void. I HATE THE AMERICAN HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. IT ONLY BENEFITS THE FINANCIAL + INSURANCE INDUSTRIES, NEVER PEOPLE OR CAREGIVERS. to put this in context, I supposedly have a "good" plan as a software developer. only the "free market" could design a system this bad.

I think it's really funny that people think Jeff bezos actually cares if people subscribe to the WaPo. he makes gajillions of dollars selling everything and providing the infrastructure for over half the internet (probably > 75%). he did not get into newspapers because they were a cash cow.

let's just remember that every one of the bombs that is being sent by Israel is directly paid for by the United States. thank you very much #genocideJoe

I can't wait to reread Our History is the Future. listen to this podcast. @nicke.bsky.social is drawing out a lot of the parallels I see in the present Zionist project in Palestine and US settler colonialism in relation to native peoples. pca.st/episode/b1f5...

www.theguardian.com/world/live/2... what a beautiful humanitarian thought. if only anyone could stop delivering arms to Israel then perhaps we could begin to solve this problem. not like #genocideJoe Biden could do anything about it.
