Grief and rage are right, because what we’ve witnessed is unbearable. But we are not powerless. We grieve together, we organize, we build. The empire depends on us feeling small—so we grow, we connect, we refuse to let this be normal. We are the next world emerging.

One by one, every Dem should heckle like Green and be proudly thrown out by him.
Not sure why all these Dems showed up tbh. They should have followed @aoc.bsky.social's lead and stayed away.

what else could we expect from Trump? He can't open his mouth without spewing colonialism and corrupt business deals at the same time. 🧵

Trump says the U.S. will 'take over' Gaza and relocate its people. What does it mean?
It wasn't immediately clear what legal authority Trump would have to execute his proposals, and they would likely be met by fierce resistance from Palestinians and from regional Arab countries.

they shouted out the organic mobilization of DC residents protesting against the DOGE fuckery as shaking the legislature and public out of its slumber + called for federal employees to stick around instead of bailing at jobs under attack by DOGE to help fight back.
The Democrats are actually holding the Senate open all night like we asked, it's getting punchy lol. Livestream:

dems are very close to teaching their constituents to pick up pitchforks and mace to threaten them with just by way of refusing to listen to anything else.
If we learn anything from recent history AND ancient history, it's that your elected officials can get a lot more done when they have a mob at their backs. Our opponents understand this.

People in Gaza are still collecting the skulls and decomposed remains of their children from beneath the rubble, while some fantasize about building a resort on their mass graves, and others gloat over a minority that refused to vote for the party that enabled a genocide. Sick.

We were just told that they won’t let us in. They are denying entry to 2 dozen members of Congress. Elon Musk has all our private information & we have no idea what he’s doing with it. This is happening completely behind closed doors. HELL NO. It’s illegal. We demand oversight!

Apathy is the enemy. It dulls our capacity to act, whispering that resistance is futile. But this is exactly what power wants—our disengagement, our exhaustion, our surrender. We can’t give it to them. Stay focused. Stay in the fight.

the Palestinian struggle is emblematic of a universal fight against oppression and for liberation. As I have previously argued, "Palestine speaks for everyone" in its embodiment of resistance against imperialist forces.

the plan to "develop" Gaza economically after depopulating it reveals the capitalist drive to commodify land irrespective of its indigenous inhabitants. This mirrors historical instances where colonial powers have expropriated land for profit, displacing native populations in the process.
