yeah yeah yeah but Zionism is not racism

But look, let's just focus on the Green Party motion, and whether it was or wasn't antisemitic.

This is a good time for Scotland to get out

The news from Brazil and Serbia are great and show that you don't defeat the far right by copying it or trying to appeal to their supporters You do it by being uncompromising, showing the danger they pose and offering something different to the many crises people suffer from

A not small mercy

These companies are sociopathic. They are showing us who they are. Believe them.

Maybe its the peculiarities of my own feed but I'm really struck by the fact that Palestine figures very centrally on my X feed, but there is almost no discussion here and it certainly doesn't figure in 'Trending' topics. Bluesky does feel quite genteel & academic, maybe that's fine in its way.

Signed this along with several others www.newstatesman.com/cover-story/...

We did it, people.

Can I just make a Committee on Improving Academia with my mates and then sally forth into a university of my choice to run an 'independent investigation'?

thems the rules

If only she had had a contact in that administration.

Let me make this easy. No nation-state, including my own natal land, has the right to exist based on religious or racial requirements for belonging, by dispossessing or excluding others, or having different classes of citizenship.

I'm all for holding politicians accountable but the people who booed the Mayor of New York for attending a vigil yesterday are massive numpties.

dis you?

Please don't use the word 'solidarity' to describe some inchoate sense of what a good person you are. Solidarity requires work and discomfort.

EITHER we work against a repeat of the Holocaust OR name Nazism as the racist ideology driving it.

I am one of the signatories to this letter. There MUST be accountability. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

I marvel at people who are more enraged by a party line resolution than an entire genocide being conducted in the name of the ideology and state they are apologists for.

"Genocide bad" is not a marvellously moral and radical position for which you deserve a medal. Do the work.

Zionism is not racist

i am sh*tposting hard b/c i have flu. Pity me.

I see that once again the scions of Novara are covering themselves in glory as they slide eagerly into the mainstream.

Hardcore liberal silliness

The BBC is determined to ask every supporter of Zionism if Zionism is racism. Unfortunately it can't ask the victims of Zionism because they were all killed by Israel.

Yep, there are lot of people exposing themselves as supporters of a racist ideology engaged in both apartheid and genocide right now I'm blocking each and every one of them

Born into an entity that also self-determined in 1947, I can say with absolute conviction: self-determination is not a free pass, nor a pathway to permanent victimhood. At some point, you become an agent, perhaps at the very moment you resist.

This. Exactly this. But now we can see clearly.

Anticolonialism requires that we also challenge the colonial proclivities of the nation-state that emerges out of a process of self-determination.

sensibles for extermination popping up everywhere.

Still waiting for verification of your Algeria claim, @jdportes.bsky.social. Or you could just stand up and say you got that wrong.
