Reminder: European colonial Zionists aren't Semites. Only one Semitic language is still in use: Arabic. Modern Hebrew is not a Semitic language, it was created in the 18th and 19th century. Palestinians are the Indigenous Semites of the Holy Lands. Zionists are the anti-Semites. #auspol #springst

There are many many more of us than them There are many many more of us than them There are many many more, many many more There are many many more of us than them So make #ausvotes count, comrades It's time to organise in your electorates 🍉✌️🗝️

Some people: it is offensive to compare Israel to the Nazis IDF soldier taking part in the Gaza genocide: “I felt like a Nazi. It looked exactly like we were the Nazis and they were the Jews.” In an Israeli paper by an Israeli interviewing Israelis. archive.is/2024.12.23-1...

I haven't talked much about the election because the real job now is to defend communities against Trump. But: the number of Ds who stayed home outnumbers the number of voters Rs gained. Ds discounted significant chunks of the base chasing after Rs and it failed. Maybe stop doing that?

The social media age ban shuts down the school strike for climate - social media is their primary tool for organising. #qt

Contrast the political, media and police response to graffiti in Wentworth, with their response to a possible Zionist terror firebomb attack on Burgertory and @HashTayeh's home while his family was sleeping. #auspol #springst

Assad’s brutal war against the Syrian people was infamously one of the bloodiest campaigns of mass slaughter in recent memory. And yet.

The Green Party in Germany elected new leadership on Saturday, with Franziska Brantner being tapped as co-leader, as the party looks ahead to snap national elections in February.

A massive hacking scandal that has engulfed Italy is now threatening to spill beyond its borders, sucking in Israel, the Vatican, the United Kingdom and Lithuania.

Democrats at the DNC convention keep claiming “COVID no longer controls our lives.” What scientists say: The global incidence of Long COVID is ~400 million individuals, which is estimated to have an annual economic impact of approximately $1 trillion. #DNCConvention2024

depressing that it increasingly seems like the response to georgia republicans promising to steal the state's electoral votes for Trump is basically "well i guess when it happens we will file some lawsuits and also try to win without needing it" instead of "arrest all the plotters"

The most infuriating, demonstrably wrong axiom in establishment Democratic politics is that the only responsible method of Supreme Court reform is "Democrats winning elections forever," and yet liberal commentators cannot stop parroting it ballsandstrikes.org/legal-cultur...

"He claimed that Trump has ‘blessed’ his organization and ‘he’s very supportive of what we do.'”

JD Vance: women aren’t concerned about abortion rights, they’re interested in normal issues, issues only the Normal Party of Normal can address Interviewer: issues such as what JD Vance [breathing heavily]: when a woman is in her time of defilement, her menses turn her mind toward border security

Team Harris TELLING people to tune into Trump's presser today might be the biggest hater move in the history of politics and I fucking love it so much

Tim Walz tonight in Boston: “I feel like one of my roles in this now is to be the anti–Tommy Tuberville, to show that football coaches are not the dumbest people.” (pool report by Anjali Huynh, Boston Globe)

Babes, I say this with love and understanding: the reason we are in this mess is because republicans got their people out to vote for 30 years. It is just not true that voting doesn’t work. It doesn’t work *quickly* and it doesn’t undo damage, which is why we should start not doing more damage *now*

elon musk's daughter is amazing

you guys simply aren’t going to believe this

Media freaks & terf freaks are hyperfixating on the 'gender controversy' around the boxing but the crowds themselves don't seem too bothered about it. At the same time, the crowds have constantly booed the Dutch rapist paedophile volleyball player, but there's been nigh on silence from media/terfs.

CEO pay is skyrocketing at the highest rate in 14 years. It's increasing almost 3x faster than wage growth. This explosion in CEO pay relative to the pay of workers isn’t because CEOs have become so much more valuable. They've just gamed the system to line their pockets.

When will the press ask Vance about this? If it was Joe Biden or the Democratic VP nominee, they would absolutely ask about something that has been trending all over social media since his nomination.

AI is useful for creating images we’d never see on the real world, like a water-skiing T-Rex or Donald Trump and a crowd of black women all smiling together

It’s actually pretty damn simple: Vote for Kamala Harris and you never have to think about Donald Trump ever again, for the rest of your life.

we're rapidly coming up on the ten year (!) anniversary of when Musk promised a Tesla would be able to drive itself from New York to LA with no driver in the car.

As far as I can tell Walz has no real baggage and excites everybody. Shapiro has said borderline racist things about Palestinians, is implicated in a sexual assault scandal, and supports school vouchers. Whatever Shapiro brings to the table in PA may be negated by the people he turns off nationally

Normal people: Wow, those gymnasts got really high up and flipped around a lot. Additional normal people: I'm not into the Olympics. MAGA: I demand Kamala Harris comment on an Algerian athlete in a relatively obscure sport who is not trans, but for the purpose of me getting angry let's say she is.

i understand the desire to try and parse some of the insane shit these fuckin creeps utter but the fact is they are fuckin creeps with incredibly vile thoughts and ideas it is just how it is

People are talking about how inspiring it is that Olympic athletes are competing with COVID... Like folks, that's not inspirational. That's how you give yourself Long COVID.

so this voter fraud

if i am reading this correctly, Trump’s AG shut down an investigation into whether candidate Trump took a $10 million bribe from the Egyptian government? a bribe that may well have enabled him to spend critical dollars in the last weeks of the 2016 campaign?

I posted about this when Biden got Covid but now w/handy email tool— Exciting bill before Congress to offer tax credits for ventilation & air filtration upgrades on commercial buildings. This could *drastically* reduce how much Covid we have to live with. Take 2 mins to ask your reps to cosponsor!

THE ELECTION IS A NECESSARY BUT NOT SUFFICIENT PART OF THE CHANGE WE MUST MAKE THE ELECTION IS A NECESSARY BUT NOT SUFFICIENT PART OF THE CHANGE WE MUST MAKE THE ELECTION IS A NECESSARY BUT NOT SUFFICIENT PART OF THE CHANGE WE MUST MAKE

she went to school? on a bus? how did we not vet this woman

today Republicans have -criticized women who like cats -criticized women who don't have children -criticized women who are Black -criticized women who <checks notes> laugh -criticized women who have sex -revived birtherism -opined about the *real* "black experience" So yeah, just another Monday.
