The genocide in Gaza has destroyed what remains of the illusion that the West should determine the future for the rest of the world. The United States and its satellites, having taken the centre stage of history to great fanfare after the fall of the Soviet Union, are now exiting in disgrace. A profound disorientation is the fate of the intellectual class that was created and sustained by the 'American Century. A legacy media whose authority to narrate the world depends on Western assumptions of omniscience is now lost in a ruin of shattered concepts.
From the @equatormag.bsky.social mission statement and damn, was that ever proven 100% correct in short order.

"And what about all those books with checklists on how to spot your country sliding into fascism? Why did so many of the people who read them—and even some of the people who wrote them—falter when a genocide was unfolding on their screens..." - @naomiaklein.bsky.social h/t @annfriedman.bsky.social

“The Surrealists were willing to look into the abyss of so-called civilisation, admit to ‘pessimism all along the line,’ and nonetheless wrench from that darkness a poetics of revolutionary change,” @naomiaklein.bsky.social writes www.equator.org/articles/sur...

@naomiaklein.bsky.social on how the Surrealists confronted the horrors of the First World War – and why their work speaks to us today: ”Evisceration was as real and material for many of these young artists as their evident desire to burn it all down.”

Revolutionary ghosts are always helpful.
So I turned to the Surrealists for tips on fighting fascism.
Stay for the ending about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social surrealist campaigning...
Enjoy!
New @equatormag.bsky.social: @naomiaklein.bsky.social on how the Surrealists transformed the wreckage of history into revolutionary art – and what their example can teach us about the fight against fascism today www.equator.org/articles/sur...

So honored to join @equatormag.bsky.social , born as a response to the horror in Palestine and inspired by a need to bring back meaning and hope amid today’s nihilism. 💪 I open with a personal piece about my last year in politics. Hope you’ll find it worth reading.

So far, recognition of Palestinian sovereignty has largely been limited to countries in Africa, South America and Asia that have historically been critical of Israel.
This is an amazing way of writing “most of the world”
30.07.2025 22:01 — 👍 1748 🔁 422 💬 20 📌 15Former senior UN relief official Jan Eliasson has dismissed these air drops as an "ineffective sideshow". But of course, they're not aimed at stopping the genocide. Nothing Starmer does is aimed at stopping the genocide. Its aimed at managing the domestic politics of his complicity in the genocide.
