Takk for at du leser!

Kanskje Friedman burde ha hørt på palestinerne da de sa «Om dere lar dem gjøre dette med oss, vil de en dag gjøre det med dere».

I keep thinking about this fact that his last words were are you okay and hers were I'm not mad at you and it feels like a weird coincidence but it's just a reflection of the fact that the people who are coming out to take care of their neighbors are good and the people who are after them are bad

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.

The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

Kvinne, liv, frihet.

Mange folk ute i gatene til støtte for #Rojava i dag.

The photo, whose credit is unknown, shows Gregory Bovino, the Border Patrol commander wearing a Nazi-style coat. The picture is black and white, echoing the haunting photos taken in the Nazi ghettos. The racist fuck has a tight skin face with spiked up black hair and he is clasping his hands. He stands as an eternal reminder that we all must, at every available opportunity, punch Nazis in the face. Cunt.

There is simply no world in which this clothing choice is a coincidence.

Here's why Minneapolis reminds me of what I once saw in Ukraine When the government asserts authority in ways that a growing share of the public experiences as arbitrary or vindictive, it begins to lose legitimacy.

In his recent op-ed, Oleh Kotsyuba of Harvard University’s Ukrainian Research Institute compares the current protests in Minneapolis to Ukraine's 2013–2014 Revolution of Dignity, noting similarities in both the staging and spirit of both events.

Toni Morrison: “Racism may wear a new dress, buy a new pair of boots, but neither it nor its succubus twin fascism is new, or can make anything new. It can only reproduce the environment that supports its own health; fear, denial, and an atmosphere in which its victims have lost the will to fight.”

«Mener demonstrantene VG treffer»

VG kunne jo ha sett videoene og slått fast selv at regjeringen lyver om hvordan han Pretti ble drept

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

Minneapolis, MN -

A memorial has been set up where observer Alex Pretti was shot by federal agents. A heart made with branches. Several crying.

Minneapolis, MN -

Police and federal agents appear to have mostly left the area. Members of the twin cities now making speeches atop ad hoc barricades.

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

Det pågår en kamp også om hva kristendommen skal være nå.

En performativ klubbe man slår andre i hodet med, eller nestekjærlighet og håp. Disse religiøse lederne i Minnesota viser vei. Over 100 ble arrestert på #DayOfTruthAndFreedom

Ifølge Minneapolis Star Tribune har Det hvite hus altså begynt å spre KI-manipulerte bilder med den hensikt å fornedre motstandere og ofre.

Og de lover friskt og freidig å fortsette som de stevner.

Men fotball-VM må gå som planlagt 🫠

Takk! ❤️

Varm velkomst i Davos til mannen som åpent tar til orde for borgerkrig og regimeskifte i Europa, som sprer antisemittisme og barneporno og bokstavelig talt kjøpte valget for Trump i 2024.

Om du lurer på hvordan det kunne gå så galt i 1930-årenes Europa, er det bare å følge med i 2020-årenes Europa

First they came for Mahmoud.

Now they come for him again.

En boikott eller ikke av USA-VM kan ikke reduseres til et spørsmål om Grønland, Island eller Svalbard. Det står om menneskerettigheter.

The war will not end until Russia knows it cannot win an endurance race.

Europe needs to stop the temporary fixes and start the long-term commitments.

We need massive industrial orders for Ukraine now.

Acting like the war will last is the only way to make sure it doesn't

This is Witkoff’s 7th trip to Russia over the past year.

ICE detained a 5-year-old Minnesota boy and used him as “bait” The preschooler is one of at least four children from the same school district who have been detained this month, according to school officials.

“Another adult living in the home was outside and begged the agents to let him take care of the small child and was refused."

Instead, an agent “took the child, and directed him to knock on the door asking to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home, essentially using a 5-year-old as bait.

Fascismen vi glemte (Opprinnelig trykket i Morgenbladet april 2024)

Lagt ut nok en artikkel fra arkivet på Substack - om fascismen vi glemte. Deriblant Anders Lange sin.

open.substack.com/pub/jonasbal...

Har skrevet i Dagsavisen om den lange og harde kampen vi skal ut i, og som egentlig har pågått en god stund allerede.

Om behovet for allierte - kurdere, ukrainere, palestinere, kanadiere - og om behovet for å ha noe å slåss for, ikke bare imot.

Snakker om det i neste ukes Til barrikadene!
