Anti-imperialist = anti-capitalist = abolitionist (prison, police, borders, arms & armies) - unashamed to be a communist. Opposed to bullies who use ownership, gender, race, or sexuality to dominate others. Shame & dispossess the perpetrators!

AFGE, the largest federal employee union, is calling for the immediate termination of Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller for smearing their slain union member Alex Pretti as a โ€œdomestic terrorist.โ€

It is up to us to hold the architects of this genocide to account.

CNN reporting that a week before Alex Pretti was killed, 5 agents tackled him and he suffered a broken rib. CNN says he stopped his car after he saw ICE agents interacting with a family on foot and began to blow his whistle. Source tells CNN Pretti believed โ€œThat day he thought he was going to dieโ€

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But heโ€™s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

โ€œWhen they say, โ€˜Why would you be out here?โ€™ How the fuck could I not be out here?โ€ he says. โ€œMy nation is under attack."

Just days after a group of Trump-aligned billionaires officially took over TikTok in the U.S., users reported their videos criticizing ICE and the shooting of Alex Pretti were suppressed or delayed.

The oligarchy is tightening its grip over even more of our media.

Beware.

When income & wealth are concentrated in the hands of the few, it damages all parts of society: trust, quality of life, democracy. Excessive CEO pay besets imperialist ('Western') economies structured around rewarding shareholders & executives for hurting people in order to make short-term profits.

The Democratic Party will not stand in the way of the unfolding of fascist America - basically it represents the interests of the big-asset=owning class just as loyally as does the GOP.

Surreal, but heard at Davos:

Official Danish archives show Woodrow Wilsonโ€™s 1916 signature & Secretary of State Robert Lansing, committing US by treaty that Denmark has right to โ€œwhole of Greenlandโ€, after Trump written denial of right.

Starmer's cabal would rather rule the ashes than try to win under Burnham Keir Starmer's right-wing cabal would rather hand a Labour safe seat to the Faragists than allow the party a chance at survival under Andy Burnham

Starmer's cabal would rather rule the ashes than try to win under Burnham: this is because the Zionists/imperialists around Starmer are closer politically to Reform - both parties promote the reach of State racism whilst purporting to condemn racist individuals. open.substack.com/pub/anothera...

You know Alex Pretti & Renee Goodโ€”the 2 white people ICE killed.

ICE has also killed Keith Porter, a Black man, Parady La, a Cambodian man, & 5 Latinosโ€”Heber Sanchaz Domรญnguez, Victor Manuel Diaz, Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz, Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres, and Geraldo Lunas Campos.

9 TOTAL.

ABOLISH ICE.

These days itโ€™s: โ€™What are we gonna do about mass Gestapo shooting American citizens?,โ€™ Norton said.

โ€We should be talking about a national general economic strike until this is over.โ€

A group of approximately 20 people of diverse ages and backgrounds pose indoors in a blue-walled room. Most are seated or standing while holding up black posters with colorful text that reads, "MARCH FOR LOVE. FOR UNITY. FOR HOPE. TOGETHER" and "LOVE IS BACK." The bottom of the posters mentions a march on Saturday, 28th March in Central London. The atmosphere is collaborative and organized, with pamphlets and bags visible on the tables in the foreground.

A large, dense crowd of protesters gathered in a public square in front of historic stone buildings under an overcast sky. Many individuals are wearing beanies and winter coats. The crowd is a sea of signs and flags; prominent light blue flags feature the "National Education Union" logo, while participants hold numerous black posters with the slogans "HOPE IS BACK" and "MARCH FOR LOVE.

A large group of activists stands together in a high-ceilinged hall with brick arches and pillars. In the center, a large purple banner for the "TUC London, East & South East" is held high. Every person in the group is holding a sign, creating a wall of black posters with bold pink and white text reading "UNITY IS BACK" or the multi-colored "MARCH FOR LOVE" design. The setting appears to be a formal meeting or community space, with several people in the front row smiling at the camera.

"Automated systems" here includes tech from Palantir, which Wes Streeting is making central to NHS informatics, and Oracle, Tony Blair's funders & favoured Tech bros. The genocide is the responsibility of US-centred big Tech, of the big-asset-owning class that controls it, & of the Labour Party

The US-centred imperialist war machine needs to create an 'Enemy' to justify its military capacity, though it is the abject impoverished & oppressed in Minneapolis, in Kobane, in Gaza who are actually extirminated. It's China, with Russia as the European side-kick.

If, as seems likely, Trump, with his concentration of presidential powers & the Supreme Court in his pocket, keeps himself in power beyond his present term, the only recourse for states like California will surely be to leave the United States. US disintegration would be a great day for humankind.
