why is it 'the ones who walk away from omelas' and not 'the ones who stage a heist and bust that kid out'

Victoria's draconian new anti-protest laws will have a chilling effect on free speech — and won't keep anyone safe Far-reaching anti-protest measures and giving police more repressive powers only serve to increase the risk of escalating violence.

Opinion | The Victorian government is using the horrific East Melbourne synagogue attack as a veil to bring in draconian new anti-protest laws. They will only result in more division and violence, @sarahschwartz.bsky.social writes.

Pedagogy of the oppressed is free on the internet!!! Y'all can learn why letting brunch libs lead the resistance will not work!

I’ve made the post-9/11 comparison before, but there really is a growing, and depressing, familiarity with how the media and politicians are treating this current moment and the War on Terror era. It shows how nothing structurally has shifted in the past 20 years re policing Arabs and Muslims.

AOC votes to back Israel lobby's bogus "anti-Semitism" definition New York congresswoman panders to the Israel lobby.

Cameron Stewart is the deputy chair of the Walkleys judging board. The treatment of News Corp as a “normal” actor by the rest of the Australian media makes them all pretty culpable for their racism, genocide apologism general corrosiveness.

Hilarious this person influences “prestigious” awards.

For the newbies, one of the great features on here is that when someone has tried to quote-post dunk on you, hit the … and select “detach quote” and nobody will see the post or who wrote it and they will look like an asshole. (Blocking works like this too.)

When I tell people children are being slaughtered, and they want to know which children before moving into outrage mode or justification mode - that mentality, that conditional humanity, is exactly the problem.

Carte blanche "stand with Israel" rhetoric serves to legitimize - and remain any possible constraints on - the mass killing to come.

The occupation is an intolerable crime, and resistance to it is a fundamental right, and murdering civilians is wrong, and collective punishment of an entrapped population is immoral. We live in a world of ands, not ors.
