The US and Israel have killed hundreds of thousands in Gaza
Poverty is the worst form of violence
Black Lives Matter
Only radical change can save the environment
Defund the police

it is wild that Labour is doing exactly what the reactionary centrists recommend and is absolutely destroying its base of support as a result, and yet reactionary centrists in the US are just utterly silent about the complete failure of their program.

Today was Palestinian Independence Day.
As Trump and Netanyahu’s disastrous postwar plans become clear, the U.S. must recognize and respect Palestinian statehood — as 81% of the world already does.
Agency and dignity are the only ways we can achieve lasting peace.

This will be very painful to hear but all the grifters who enabled Trump, supported him, and elevated him for sake of personal gain will fail up.
Nothing will happen to any of them.
It's just how the town works, folks. They all fail up down here. They all protect each other and their own.
