Fascism doesn’t rise by accident: it’s organised through capitalism, fear, and targeted wars on migrants, drugs, and people in poverty.

Fuck ICE. Fuck Trump. Fucking Murderers. And all my admiration for those standing up in Twin cities so bravely against this modern day U.S. gestapo. This has to be a turning point

Deputy Chair @repilhan.bsky.social & Whip @chuygarcia.house.gov : “As Trump threatens land strikes on Venezuela, every U.S. Representative will face a simple, up-or-down choice on the House floor this week: Will you stand up for the Constitution and vote to stop Trump’s illegal warmaking or not?”

The Pirate Lord Donald Trump - The American Prospect All evidence suggests the president is directing the military to assassinate random civilians off the coast of South America, and thereby violating norms and laws that stretch back to before the founding of this country.

Trump has murdered at least 34 people in the Caribbean. The administration “ is selecting boats more or less at random, and intentionally killing people who could be captured.” From Ryan Cooper: trib.al/4pogGiw

Transition Security Project

While the US & Europe ramp up military spending, millions live in poverty.

Today, we launch Transition Security Project, investigating how militarisation makes us poorer and less safe amid climate crisis — and what genuine security could look like. 🧵

All Guns and No Butter on a Burning Planet The insatiable demands of the military industrial complex are a barrier to human flourishing on a livable planet.

Great analysis by @pmbigger.bsky.social and Khem Rogaly on why the vast expansion of the military industrial complex does not serve the working class and creates a more dangerous planet jacobin.com/2025/10/mili...

When I was a teenager there was a bus direct from my hometown in Germany to London - we had a British army base, and this direct bus connection was one of the benefits of that. One summer I went on that bus to go volunteer in an old people's home in Southend-on-Sea. I had just turned 18 and was... 🧵

La Via Campesina Condemns Israeli Forces’ Attack on UAWC Seed Bank in Hebron, Palestine | Read the Full Statement It is a political assault on a people’s right to live with dignity, care for their land, and determine their own future. We stand with UAWC and all Palestinian peasants who continue their struggle und...

The destruction of the UAWC seed bank in Hebron is a deliberate attack on Palestinian food sovereignty and peasant resistance. This assault targets the right to land, life, and self-determination. Peasant seeds are seeds of resistance. Hold Israel accountable.

How reducing the US military budget would also reduce emissions New research shows that even with modest reductions in military funding, the United States would keep a whole lot of carbon out of the atmosphere.

Increased military emissions is one of the dangers of increased military spending, but the bigger concern as I explained to @grist.org is that an ever more militarised world is the opposite of climate justice. grist.org/climate/how-...

Excellent analysis of UK National Security Strategy by R. Reeves @rethinkingsecurity.bsky.social that speaks of providing security for people but does not consult them, rushes enthusiastically towards more insecurity & never reflects on what keeps us safe. rethinkingsecurity.org.uk/2025/07/09/d...

NATO’s 5 percent spending pledge is a threat to people and the planet The alliance’s spending surge will prompt war, cut services and worsen the climate crisis.

Sunrise Movement endorsement of Zohran Mamdani

Article headline, "Zohran Mamdani is Proposing Green Abundance for the Many"

Mamdani's victory could be the biggest election win for climate populism since AOC beat Crowley in 2018.

With AOC, the Green New Deal promised good green jobs.

Mamdani's Green Abundance for the Many is all about making the good, green life affordable.

Climate politics have fundamentally changed.

Carbon footprint of Israel’s war on Gaza exceeds that of many entire countries Exclusive: The climate cost is more than than the combined 2023 emissions of Costa Rica and Estonia, study finds

ICYMI
By me: The carbon footprint of the first 15 months of Israel’s war on Gaza will be greater than the annual planet-warming emissions of a hundred individual countries, exacerbating the global climate emergency on top of the huge civilian death toll
