White racist literally threw a bomb at black people to kill them, apparently not a sufficient cause to have a moral panic, special envoy, national introspection, royal commission, terrorism declaration, new laws, 1,000 op-eds in The Australian. We're struggling to identify why that might be.

Despite clearly being an attempt to terrorise First Nations communities and their allies, it’s not being investigated as attempted terrorism.

The Greens back First Nations elders calling out a double standard. The AFP must investigate this attack for potential terrorism offences.

The Invasion Day rally in Boorloo/Perth was targeted and attacked with an explosive device.

The silence from the right has been deafening.

The same politicians who have spent the last month politicising violence are now nowhere to be found.

Conservative politicians continue to ramp up their attacks on migrants and already marginalised communities.

We cannot let them divide us.

We cannot allow those on the far-right demonise migrants and use them to distract from their own failings.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

This global heat map is extraordinary. Australian political leaders who pump out fossil fuels and ignore climate change are threatening our survival on this extraordinary continent.
whoaaa... looking at the temps across Australia today.

That's extreme.

Feeling for all the folks who were/are affected by this heatwave (we've been spared here in Sydney but other capitals and regional areas are really in the thick of it)

The regime obviously thought they'd be able to take out a few dozen scary-queer-weirdo Antifa types in black masks and then successfully cow the rest of the Coastal Elite Liberal class into terrified silence: they were not expecting "totally fearless mass nonviolent resistance by entire cities."
It also sounds like at least some of them thought the cameras wouldn't matter because they were assuming that a couple of public executions would cause all of the resistance to run and hide.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:

- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

The Trump administration has rapidly escalated from extra-judicial killing of its external enemies to extra-judicial murder of its internal enemies. Gross disregard of life, rule of law and basic human dignity are not values we share. We must urgently decouple ourselves from this regime.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Absolute drivel from the BBCs live feed. Despite there being abundant evidence to contradict the repulsive Noem, her words are reported uncritically, in line with the apparent belief that presenting a lie alongside the truth and calling both “narratives” has anything to do with journalism.
