Todays article from Mr Nate really sums up the situation in Europe, created by corrupt leaders who sell out their people time and time again.
After sponsoring genocide in Gaza, welcoming the kidnapping of Maduro, cheering the bombing of Iran, backing assaults on Lebanon, applauding assassinations, liberal European leaders have discovered international law just in time for the US invasion of Greenland

Iran has a higher rate of literacy than we do here.

My latest article is about all the people but especially the progressives who reproduced imperial propaganda about Iran because they have never known revolution and inhabit fundamentally anti-revolutionary states of the political and the personal open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

There’s so much we could do to create better and more jobs. Help our Planet Earth. Help one another. Build up infrastructure here and elsewhere.
It won’t happen while we are ruled by unelected warmongers.

5/ After Palestine, Venezuela, and the mass repression of migrants through ICE at home, the US and Israel have zero credibility lecturing anyone on rights. Iran’s future belongs to Iranians.

People in any given State may want change. They do however, have any desire for Imperialist sanctions and war crimes.
Millions of people have been out on the streets in Iran and Venezuela in support of the governments of those countries. These are the unacceptable faces of protest the media don't show us because it doesn't support the imperial narrative open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...
The Unacceptable Face of Protests In Iran (And Elsewhere)
There is an acceptable face of protest in Iran, in Venezuela and the myriad other countries marked for western regime change, and there is an unacceptable face.

Is there a history of the "Abolish ICE" movement and the political response? What I recall is a principled stance against ICE being mocked in scathing ways by the "Vote Blue No Matter Who (Gets Killed)" crowd.

Who were the same people who blew off Epstein and insisted the DOJ would get Trump.

Not if there were better choices offered than the current duopoly parties and not if we had ranked choice voting. Currently right wingers win either way regardless of whether establishment Democrats or Republicans win. There is little difference between what either does.
