He canβt be controlled and he has too many equally dumb potential protectors.
Making him far too close to those nuclear buttons.
Very best wishes to you both. Good to know he is in the best place. Yes, the people in the system are amazing, as our own recent experiences have shown.

I'm "deeply concerned" abt your complicity in Israel's genocide of the people of Palestine.
And I'm "deeply concerned" I won't live long enough to see you charged, standing in The Hague where you belong.
Pretty clear whatβs coming. See you all in the camps.

What bothers me about it, though, is the insistence that you can't break it down by traditional left/right.
And you *can.*
Groypers are ABSOLUTELY right wing.
And they are ABSOLUTELY interested in the nation state project.

After reviewing multiple weather models, including a forecast commissioned twice from MetService specifically for the Harbour Bridge. It is clear that predicted winds of 75-85KM/H make the crossing unsafe. Postponing the Harbour Bridge march is the only responsible course of action.
BRIDGE CROSSING POSTPONED. 
Change to the Gaza March for tomorrow. Starts in Aotea Square.
RIGHT NOW Trump's deportations and military deployments to US cities are political violence. Police brutality against Stop Cop City and other protesters is political violence. The mainstream thinks it only counts as political violence when the state didn't explicitly order it & that's a filthy lie.

More accurately, farming regularly creates problems for rivers.  Rivers are dynamic systems that follow their own natural laws. Try to constrain them and one will ultimately pay a high price

The American people need to raise holy hell and not stop until the full Epstein files are released and EVERY person implicated in them is brought to justice, despite their party or position.
We're either a nation of human decency or we're not.
This should be a nonpartisan demand.
If you want to find out who someone truly is, surrender fully to their will and give them everything they want. They'll show you.
Zionism is showing us what it truly is right now. This is what it looks like when the Zionists are allowed to do exactly what they want to do.
