@Gdac 💯

@ricmac Indeed, I mean you can’t have a proper environmentalist movement without involving ExxonMobil and Shell, after all.

@junesim63 Wait, Labour aren’t socialist? What a shock! Has anyone told Jeremy Corbyn?

@wsw777 @russellt * Except for Israel. Israel is exempt.

@LydiaConwell They don’t call it “the banality of evil” for nothing.

@Theriac Thanks, I hate it.

@Alephwyr You and me both :)

#anarchism

@kaminenmosher Gorgeous (and, sadly, timely).

You can either have rule by the people (democracy) or rule by the capital-owning class (capitalism), but not both.

And why yes, late-stage capitalism is a euphemism for extinction-stage capitalism, thank you for asking.

The kids aren’t depressed because of iPhones; they’re depressed because you told them they live in a democracy and then mired them in late-stage capitalism.

@strypey “Buh, billionaires.”

@MarianneTiel I’m not sure that I understand your question - so what if the US defunds UN? Or so what that Ted Cruz is attempting to protect Israel?

@GrahamScambler @dibi58 The monarchy that colonised a quarter of the world, perpetrated the transatlantic slave trade, and was the catalyst for some of the worst conflicts in the world – including Israel/Palestine – via its divide and conquer strategy is becoming more coercive and threatening, you say?

Israel's soldiers are routinely shooting children in the head in Gaza

Just so we’re clear, when you say “Israel has a right to defend itself”, what you’re saying is “Israel has a right to commit genocide.”

#israel #palestine #genocide

@gleick You’re entirely right. However, given the next administration is either going to be neoliberal or fascist, I wouldn’t hold my breath.

@micah Please tell me this is satire.

Gaza in rubble and ruin

“After a year of conflict, two-thirds of Gaza’s buildings have been damaged or destroyed, leaving behind 42 million tonnes of rubble and a mountain of health risks.”
