A lot of Americans joined here after they saw their favourite party and leader losing the elections.

I cannot get enough of prison release videos. I wake up every morning since & search prison release Syria & spend hours watching. Sometimes the same ones over again. I read all the Arabic testimonies. I’m shook by the extent of the system that seems to span beneath all of Syria & moved by its end.

France may be moving towards shutdown.

Amnesty International concludes Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza Amnesty International’s research has found sufficient basis to conclude that Israel has committed and is continuing to commit genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip.

Just one of several moments in the last 14 months where I wonder whether this is when ostensibly progressive people in my life confront their indoctrination & experience the soul-shaking horror of their own mealy-mouthed complicity
