“I am the son of the guy whose secret police force used to terrorize you, please install me or my friends, for democracy” is an amazing pitch from the shah’s son

Last night I watched a video of a group of US soldiers in Bahrain watching a strike hit their base, gawping and yucking like Goofy at just a fraction of the horror and carnage they inflict upon the world unfolding before them like a fireworks show; a spectacle. And doesn’t that sum it up.

I'm already sick of "It's all a distraction from Epstein" replies. This regime is killing innocent people because our leaders are all power-hungry tyrants and war profiteers. When you say it's "just a distraction" you minimize the gravity of what's happening and the lives lost.

Labour must have been extra optimistic when they sent 100 English Labour MPs up to Scotland in August 2014

It's also because centrist and neoliberal media like the Atlantic spent a lot of energy over the past 10 years attacking antifascist movements that took great risk to confront and beat back the fascist advance while also down-playing the real threat of the far-Right. fair.org/home/in-mont...

We have heard many reports of violent policing in Manchester on Saturday.

Police kettled demonstrators to ensure the far-right march could go ahead.

There will be a callout for witnesses for various incidents later this week. please share this!

Epstein wasn’t a “bad apple”
He didn’t “slip through the cracks”
He was the logical outcome of systems designed to protect rich, powerful men & discipline the rest.
Prisons didn’t stop him. Policing didn’t stop him. The state didn’t stop him.
He was protected & enabled by institutions of power.

“Kamala warned us”

Fuck you

Palestinians warned you
Black people warned you
The Left warned you
Half the international community warned you

The US slide into fascism has been long and slow. Many have been falsely imprisoned or killed by it over decades.

It just finally came for you.

it’s not necessarily that all these people in the epstein files participated in the raping of girls it’s that none of them cared and if he hadn’t been arrested and died they’d still be out there trying to be his friend

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

I’m going to keep hammering this point: the excesses of ICE we see now are entirely contiguous with our system of policing more broadly, and the reason that almost no politician wants to threaten real consequences for ICE agents is because it opens the door to making the same demands of the cops

"They want an excuse to fire on protesters."

"They're looking for a reason to declare martial law. Don't..."

Ah. See, they're already doing and saying whatever they want. They're putting people in camps and murdering people at will.

Our behavior doesn't drive theirs.

"Maduro is a brutal authoritarian dictator," I wisely intone, as the corrupt demented paedophile US President violating Constitutional Law while operating a gestapo and concentration camps illegally arrests a foreign leader on charges which read like they were written on a paper placemat in crayon.

60 minutes CECOT segment. Recorded through my browser. HD quality. Not phone. Spread it around. If you're press, it's yours. Go nuts.

It's streaming on a Canadian website, but there is no telling for how long.

You can very clearly see why someone whose job it is to protect war criminals would need this pulled from the airwaves: It’s visible proof the Trump administration is operating concentration camps.

The UK media’s silence on the Palestine Action activists’ hunger strikes is a deliberate editorial choice - Media@LSE LSE's Professor Bart Cammaerts discusses the lack of coverage of the hunger strikes of imprisoned Palestine Action activists in the UK media.

“Since the announcement of their hunger strike on 20 October till 10 December 2025, the hunger strike by jailed Palestine Action activists was mentioned a total of 12 times in the British mainstream newspapers.”

That is so damning and grim.
