Foreign tourists could be required to disclose 5 years of social media histories under Trump administration plan The Customs and Border Protection proposal would apply even to countries that don't require visas to enter.

Requiring foreign visitors to hand over 5 years of social media isn’t “security,” it’s unchecked government control.

All-seeing surveillance systems don’t make us safer. They are in direct opposition to our civil liberties.

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others.

Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla:

“People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.”

Trey Reed was murdered. Trey Reed deserved - was OWED - a full life. He was just a kid.

Justice for Trey Reed.

UK PM Starmer says people have a right to 'peaceful protest' after anti-migrant march British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said people have a right to peaceful protest after more than 100,000 demonstrators joined an anti-immigration march through London on Saturday, but he condemned assaults on police and said Britain was built on tolerance and diversity.

…… unless they are members of Palestine Action or anti-Zionist Jews like my dad, who is being charged for allegedly publicly calling for a protest outside the BBC (he didn’t even actually do it!)

What makes me very suspicious is that nowhere in that article does it mention what the supposed “seditious words” actually were

The reaction to Kirk’s murder on the right is a reminder that Republicans are the most bad faith people on the face of the planet.

All I can say about the assassination of Charlie Kirk is that whatever the Trump administration will retaliate with in response, it’s about to be REALLY bad. I doubt Trump posting that video of him “mourning” will be the end of it.

NOT MARIO LOOKIN' LIKE THE FIRST PLANE 😭

Live Updates: Parliament Burns in Nepal as Protests Force Prime Minister to Quit

BREAKING: Nepal is going through a violent revolution right now as the Parliament, Supreme Court, police stations, and houses of politicians have been set on fire by Gen-Z.

The Prime Minister and Home Minister have resigned in succession in the last 24-ish hours.

With all those ways the US and China are mirroring each other lately, I have been wondering what the Chinese equivalent of Palantir is…I guess I have my answer now

People in Nepal, including children, have been killed by police and security forces in Gen Z-led protests against government corruption.

Despite the purpose of the demonstrations, international media headlines have reduced them to merely protests over the country’s ongoing social media ban.

I used to think that the UK was a bastion of free speech where I could still protest for a good cause…what happened to the country where I studied, made friends, and thrived all those years ago? When did protesting a genocide become an act of “terrorism”?

I want to say they are Streisand Effect-ing this, but the original video is so ridiculous everyone already knows about it. This probably just confirms Xi was not entirely joking.

Chicago: a huge rally of protesters is underway! Chicago, you are amazing!

The fact that this is happening while back in China, Xi Jinping is also trying to rewrite WW2 history by downplaying and censoring any contributions from the Kuomintang…authoritarians are always the same no matter the country

A crowd of government official from various countries, with nation leaders Putin, Xi Jinping and Kim Jong Un (from left to right) in the front,

“Parade commemorating the 80th anniversary of the historical triumph over Fascism” and it’s being celebrated by three of the most fascistic countries in the world. What a massive fucking joke

Shit like this makes “The Line” seem utopian in comparison. Genocidal bastards have no shame

Aid flotilla with Greta Thunberg set to sail for Gaza to ‘break illegal siege’

tiktok taking down their live feature in indonesia while the protests are happening shows they understand the ability that app had to show people what was really happening in gaza and they intend not to let it happen again

As if eco-cities, bullet trains and renewable energy is enough to justify persecution of LGBTQ advocacy groups, ethnic cleansing, staggering wealth gaps, and criminalization of trade unions

Capitalism is SO suppressed in China! So much so they're not the leading world exporter of cheap shit that cost 1 cent to make sold for 6$ and lasts 2 weeks fills landfills! The workers paradise where strikes and unions are illegal! Its PURE Laissez Faire for workers

Had to update my bio a bit because unfortunately, since I have British nationality and a lot of my friends are from the UK, just because I’m not currently living there doesn’t mean I can just ignore whatever issues it has right now

I wish more people realized the ways in which the US and China (as well as HK) are similar including wealth inequality, suppression of free speech and threats to human rights, but I don’t think most people are ready for this conversation 😔
