“I feel liberated,” one top banker told the Financial Times in January 2025. “We can say ‘retard’ and ‘pussy’ without the fear of getting cancelled.… It’s a new dawn.” Wonder where that guy is today and what he thinks about this all.

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds. I support neither imperialism or dictatorship. Sahar Delijani said it best:

"Yellow matter custard dripping from a dead dog's eye." - Also the Beatles I guess they can't all be winners. But yeah, they were pretty much on point with the "All you need is love, love is all you need" one.

"The point is not that what progressives do must never be criticized; the point is that the relentless drive to find fault with both sides equally results in a sense of (false) equivalence among those taking cues from supposedly trustworthy centrists."

"In the 20th century, it was important to position oneself against fascism and authoritarian state socialism simultaneously," writes @jwmueller-pu.bsky.social. "But today, a reflexive position in the middle...makes little sense in a completely asymmetrical political landscape."

A escolha é clara: entre quem sempre se reviu na Constituição ou quem a quer mudar num sentido autoritário, quem é europeísta ou quem é aliado de Trump. É por isso que a convergência entre democratas nestas eleições presidenciais é hoje uma necessidade cívica.

Marques Mendes a provar ter a cultura democrática que Luís Montenegro provou ser incapaz de ter. Perante o Mal, o Fascismo e a Ditadura não há neutralidade.

Grande discurso do PM do #Canada. A envergonhar os morcões medrosos que manietam hoje a UE. E a fazem submeter-se e não enfrentar o boçal “bully” que afunda os EUA e a segurança mundial.

"Libertarianism" with fascist characteristics. I'm shocked, I tell you...

"Gurung, 65, was arrested in 1990 while he was a member of the Royal Bhutan Army and accused of attending protests demanding rights for his minority Nepali-speaking community. He was allegedly tortured, denied proper legal counsel, and sentenced to life imprisonment with no possibility of parole."

#Bhutan’s political prisoners face illness, mistreatment, & decades-long sentences in harsh conditions. The recent death of Sha Bahadur Gurung exposes the suffering that the government refuses to acknowledge. Read how the suffering of Bhutan’s political prisoners can be ended: https://bit.ly/4qLUTnv

Hey, portugueses, Isto é obra do amigo do #Ventura. Bem que podiam perguntar ao segundo candidato mais votado nestas eleições se ele ainda concorda com as políticas do amigalhaço. É um grupo do camandro. Trump, Putin, Orbán, Ventura, etc. Lembrem-se disto na 2ª volta. #presidenciais2026

The chronically online are aware, beyond that it's questionable‼️ Keep speaking up and many of us will share your information‼️ Stay safe‼️

Quando V€ntura se assume como O candidato da direita e os candidatos da “direita democrática”ficam calados, não se distanciando de um extremista, percebemos o tipo de direita que temos em Portugal.

When you feel like the world is falling apart and nothing really matters, always remember your loved ones. They make this world a better place. This post is supposed to be half very serious, half "aww she's so cute when she's sleeping!"

Já vejo muitos liberaizinhos com dor de cotovelo a dizer que não querem votar no "socialista" e que começam a entreter a possibilidade de votar no fascista. Once again, "scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds". #presidenciais2026

#Israel continues the #Genocide. Do not forget.
