“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”

There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.
Israel used weapons in Gaza that made thousands of Palestinians evaporate
US-made thermal weapons burning at 3,500C caused 2,842 people to "evaporate" in Gaza, Al Jazeera investigation finds.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

When they propose spending increases on violence work, you can treat that as a big pot of money that should be given to life affirming things instead.

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

No efforts to reform policing have ever been successful because the police cannot be reformed - they are enemies of equality that we must struggle against and overcome.

The massive cover-up of allegations made against former Deputy Commissioner Jevon McSkimming gets right at key contradictions in policing itself. The police exist in order to maintain social order - but that social order is fundamentally unjust.

The Department of Corrections is failing to provide people basic necessities like hygenic bedding, underwear, socks, shoes and thermals. This is a breach of human rights and a failure to care for those in state care. Sign our petition: our.actionstation.org.nz/petitions/ge...
Image one description The image has a clothes rack with different coloured shirts and pants on it. Below is black text in a white box with a pink border. The text reads as follows: “People in prison are unable to access basic clothing items.” Image two description The image contains a text-based post against a brown background. At the top is a white text box with a pink border, the text is orange. Under this there are four bullet points with images of underwear, socks, a t-shirt and shoes. Underneath is some orange text. The text reads as follows: “In the 2024/2025 year, PAPA has provided people in prison with: 240 pairs of underwear, 255 pairs of socks, 102 thermals, 111 pairs of shoes. Corrections is legally responsible for providing reasonable clothing requests! Are underwear, shoes, socks and warm clothes not reasonable?” Image three description The image has a white title on a black background and below it black text in a white text box with a pink border. On the bottom left side there is a stack on money. The text reads as follows: “Where is the money going??? In 2022 it cost roughly $151,000 per year to imprison someone. This is more than double the average yearly NZ salary ($65,749). Where is the money going if not providing basic?” Image four description The image contains a text-based post against a brown background. One text box is white with orange around it and the other is pink with white around it. The text reads as follows: “People in prison are made to make requests for their basic property needs. When they get told no, they have to request items externally or go without. Why is the burden of being warm, safe, and comfortable put on those already suffering?”

So called "prison riots" are a last resort protest against intolerable, inhumane conditions. We need an investigation and full transparency around what prompted this. www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

Firing and demoralizing feminized jobs as enemies of the state while brazenly bribing men with violent jobs that almost instantly puts them into the middle of middle class is very basic gendered warfare. Fulfilling the manosphere’s promise.

It is insane to me that the government can find money to pay ICE agents increasingly larger sums of money, yet teachers have to buy their own pencils.
