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!

Le mouvement social en cours fait peur au pouvoir en place et sa répression n'est pas anodine. Contrairement à ce que dit Macron depuis plusieurs jours, il n'y a pas meilleur moment pour une mobilisation sociale de cette ampleur.

The Hind Rajab Foundation has filed a criminal complaint with UK authorities against Lidor Dafna. The complaint calls for the investigation and arrest of Lidor Dafna for his part in Israel’s war crimes, crimes against humanity and acts of genocide in Gaza.

I must have missed that being reported in MSM. Oh hang on for one moment I forgot about the tentacles of zionism in every corner of the body politic and its puppet media.

Far-right fascists attempt to disrupt and attack a meeting of the SWP, no arrests. These fascists are becoming more and more brazen, all stemming from the riots that took place the past few months. The only answer is for workers to organize an independent fight against these reactionary forces.

Cet appel à la réduction des dépenses publiques et à la baisse des impôts — quand les inégalités matérielles en France atteignent un niveau extrême — émane du PDG d’une entreprise qui continue de soutenir l’entité sioniste, malgré des preuves manifestes de génocide = Facho/imperialist

Overt co-operation on the streets of France between police & fascist thugs:

Les militants fascistes ont attaqués des manifestants rue de la Loge sous les yeux de la police, quand les manifestants ont répliqués, la police a chargé pour les protéger et les miliciens ont frappés les gens à terre ! #Montpellier #24octobre #ViolencesPolicieres @info.gouv.fr

3/4 of Israelis want troops to remain in Gaza - 55% of them want a long-term military presence there - while 80% want the IDF to continue the war in Lebanon, according to polling. There is also a growing trend for young, secular left-leaning Israelis to leave the country. It's a fascist spiral.

US mainstream media don't much publicise Trump's serial rapes, because they're owned by billionaires who benefit from his regime; more broadly current imperialist & capitalist domination stands on abuse - sexual, physical, emotional - so not-so-covertly promotes it. Rape is part of Trump's allure.

The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.

Just listen to this. Then consider these polls: 76% of Jewish Israelis think there are no innocents in Gaza (Aug 2025) 82% support expelling Palestinians from Gaza (May 2025) 47% support killing all inhabitants of conquered enemy cities (May 2025)

A new report by the United Nations’ human rights office finds that Israel is guilty of an array of war crimes/crimes against humanity – a “continuing genocide” – across occupied Palestine - including extermination, persecution, torture, rape & other forms of sexual violence in the West Bank & Gaza.

This is a review of how the UK state murdered 3 IRA members in an ambush planned so that their deaths were inevitable. The state's prerogative of violence has to be enacted from time to time to remain effective in defending the system's manifest injustices. simonpearson1.substack.com/p/the-two-se...

simonpearson1.substack.comThe Two Seconds and the Missing FilmThe SAS commander who planned the 1991 Coagh ambush wants us to concentrate on the two seconds before his soldiers opened fire. The inquest uncovered a much longer history.

January 6th 2021 was Trump's declaration of fascism; in relation to the coming mid-terms, it's just a matter of seeing how the Hitlerian racist authoritarianism will be applied to the results, or to the formation the results.

On 4th of July, 2026, I mourn that we forever lost our continuous peaceful transfer of US Presidential power, from President George Washington through all the Presidents until, on January 6, 2021 DJT broke his oath to preserve protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. Sad💔

L'Organisation mondiale contre la torture (OMCT) classe la France parmi les pays à « risque considérable ». SEUL pays de l’UE à atteindre ce niveau. Le 7 octobre, l’OMCT a alerté sur les allégations de « recours excessif à la force & d’arrestations massives par la police » lors du mouvement lycéen.

Dockworkers & other anti-Zionists/peace activists will hold a day of action this Friday, in Liverpool & other port cities around Europe against the UK’s continuing support for genocidal Israel, the EU’s push for war on Russia, Iran etc & states’ war on essential public services to enrich warmongers.

State-sanctioned racism under Burnham - the new Immigration and Asylum Bill seeks to charge refugees £10,000 for the state support they've received. After fleeing war and persecution, refugees arrive in Britain with nothing.

The Government bans refugees from working while they are waiting for their asylum applications to be decided, forcing them to rely on state support, and now wants to over-charge them for that support - a kind of double discrimination.

It sure does, your government is run by the #AtlasNetwork Hope our dear Kiwi cousins rise up and kick out your fossil fascist flavoured #AtlasNetworkGovernment at the election on Nov 7th #AoNZpol #NZpol

It seems that the police in France are becoming more & more willing to disclose - through their actions - their being fascistic RN or LR or Macronist supporters.

Why is the word violence used when a protester in France smashes a window, but not used when French police assault protesters? Is it somehow no longer violence if the action is committed by an employee of the state?

Imperialist-think simply does not see state-sanctioned violence as violence, or state-sanctioned racism as racism. That is why despite Israel carrying out an absolutely disgustingly torturous genocide, there are still people who are Zionists
