Humans are failing, children are wailing, life is curtailing, earth is unveiling. Zionism in its current form is racism. Trans ally 🏳️‍⚧️, anarchist, antifascist, she/her 💚 No porn, no DMs, no Tories, no Reform.

Right-wing politics does not have the solutions to solve the problems of the 21st Century. Capitalism - the idea of ‘growing the economy’ is soooooo 20th Century. We urgently need MORE REGULATION & TAXATION of the billionaire class not LESS!

Admidst their internal party politics, Labour have done nothing to redress how Cameron stuffed the BBC full of right-wing political bias. They have done nothing to effect proper #MediaReform. They have not instigated #Leveson2. Shocking dereliction of duty.

Yeah, this is getting absurd. Zero scrutiny. BBC News broadcasts Reform UK speeches in full without interruptions www.thenational.scot/news/2667178...

This is how the rich and powerful see everything: the rules don't apply to them because they are special. Who decided they were special? They did because they were powerful enough to decide it. We need to take that power back.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

FASCISM IS NEVER LEGITIMATE

George Monbiot@georgemonbiot.bsky.social

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

Please listen. A real journalist #PeterOborne If Eisenkot wins the Israeli elections it will buy time to bring Israel back into the International fold, as the genocide & ethnic cleansing continues. Eisenkot policies are no different to Netanyahu's on International matters.

This government had a choice yet they chose to compromise themselves… for several reasons, including Israeli connections, they must back out of these deals now!!

But how can UK Gov do this when they in the process of signing three major strategic oil partnerships with Israeli corporations: Jackdaw (Delek), Rosebank (Delek) and Sealion (Navitas). we have a "say one thing, do another" government

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

We are watching a coup d’état attempt unfold in real time in Brazil. I’m consumed by desperation.

The guarantee of profits when consumers switch suppliers is not how competition is meant to work. Heads the energy companies shareholders win, Tails we all lose.

Prem Sikka@premnsikka.bsky.social

UK energy bills could rise even more. Regulator is considering a Market Stabilization Charge to guarantee corporate profits. This would force energy companies to compensate consumers’ old suppliers for lost profits when people switch away. What would the govt do? Watch the Minister's reply.

Here’s something you should know about minks: They have lungs and airways remarkably similar on a cellular level to those of people. They’ve spread flus and infected humans before with COVID-19. Right now, bird flu is spreading on a Utah farm filled with thousands of them… 🧵

Bird flu came out of industrial poultry farming, and has been devastating wild bird populations ever since. Via industrial fur farming, it now threatens to do the same to us. Animal farming is one of the greatest dangers to life on Earth.

Couple of points from this: 1. Author and historian Sir Anthony Seldon: "Questions about slavery, reparations and apologies mean the moral integrity of the monarchy is being questioned." "Moral integrity" ?? 🤣🤣🤣 #AbolishTheMonarchy

“Israel is a very racist country, its government routinely commits horrific crimes” was a humdrum opinion, fifteen years ago: never uncontroversial, but well within mainstream though. Now, our whole political/media class believes it is insanely extreme. Who is it that has been radicalised, here?
