Greta Thunberg has been laughed at and disparaged by the political and media elite. But this is one of her greatest achievements. Their mockery, in a time where we are witness to their unspeakable evil, sycophancy, avarice and apathy is a badge of honour.

Israel has intentionally destroyed most of Gaza's education system, killing tens of thousands of students, teachers, professors & other educational workers. Calling on UVic prof. & MP @wgreaves.bsky.social to intervene & support university students in Gaza. Education is a human right.

Canada refused to call what’s happening in #Palestine a #genocide even after the #UN declared it was. Yet hrs after Trump& Netanyahu develop a plan for peace without rep from Pal. present, #Carney says he supported it. He clearly reads history thru a #settler-colonial lens. @mark-carney.bsky.social

I’m in Gaza City, my bag is packed, but I refuse to leave my home Israel’s devastating assault on my city is forcing thousands to flee in search of ‘safety’ that we know doesn't exist, and at the cost of losing our homes forever.
