The usurpation of nature destroys our soul.
Fortunately, the future of statues is oblivion.
Connecting insights. Courage in despair.

Never forget the underlying contempt for women and people who are vulnerable, unlucky or deemed unproductive.

We've seen that before.

Great observation. And the perpetrators are most likely children, broken by their parents, who have internalized the cruelty instead of bravely facing it and rejecting it. Compare the concept of "poisonous pedagogy" by psychologist Alice Miller.

The Epstein horrors have made something clear that has hidden in plain sight and helps explain fascism and our present crisis.

The Right Wing is motivated by a desire to hurt children and make sure their lives and futures are destroyed.

Deep sigh, @nrc.nl.

So-called quality newspapers obligingly help shift the Overton Window to the right with their ongoing bleating about "the [political] center" ("het midden", in Dutch).

The advertising industry is arguably the most harmful industry to ever exist. The entire sector should be dismantled. Do I mean that? Yes, but of course I know that the engine of greed, growth compulsion, and the throwaway culture isn't easily stopped. People are addicted through it and to it.

'... even though wealth made Epstein a more effective predator, it did not make him a predator. If it did, sexual assault and abuse would not be endemic. They would not be experiences shared by the overwhelming majority of women ...'

Words are incredibly cheap. Actual leaders of a resistance should be putting their bodies on the line, working around the clock organizing a coalition and movement, taking fascists to task.

You’ve been fed scraps for so long a few aggressive words feels like a feast.

People are so desperate for some leadership that someone will give a speech that doesn’t sound like a room of centrist, corporate consultants typed it up and everyone starts asking if the guy is the front runner for president.

Demand. More. From. Politicians.

If you understand the concept of Epstein Island—territory where the rich escape reality and law—you understand the Network State.

Crypto, eugenics, fantasies of global control.

Was Jeffrey Epstein a godfather of tech fascism?

Pls read whole piece. Neither Mandelson or Mosley were asked about Mandelson’s role in fixing Starmer’s visit to Palantir & subsequent £240m deal. It finally made headlines on Weds when a q was asked in Parliament.

But honestly, BBC also has qs to answer

Two years ago, a secret meeting by some AfD members with Sellner rocked the party because ”remigration” was discussed.

Today, Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, calls for remigration regularly on his social media platform.

That’s how quickly the normalization has happened.
Germany's #AfD is now openly courting an international right-wing extremist (with whom they have been playing footsie for years). The whole radical/extreme distinction is moot at this point, and so far, it doesn't make a dent in their support
Germany's AfD bonds with Austrian far-right extremists
Officials from the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party have been openly rubbing shoulders with Austrian right-wing extremist Martin Sellner. This, despite reservations over his Identitarian Movement.
