It’s all very blah. There’s a brewing civil conflict in many countries as the fascists and far right gain power, the right to vote for women is under attack in the USA, and again NOTHING ON THE CLIMATE!
No sense of urgency. It’s just an Anglican vicars wish list for a nicer world.

Trump intends to leave the government shut down, and to use any public disruption in response to societal breakdown and starvation as a pretext to institute martial law, maybe via the Insurrection Act, or whatever. He is preparing for violent rule by king.
Q: What did you mean when you said you're prepared to send 'more than the National Guard' into American cities?
TRUMP: if I want to enact a certain act, I'd be allowed to do whatever I want. The courts wouldn't get involved. Nobody would. I could send Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines -anybody I want

To those who can hear me - do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people

The destruction of Gaza is a turning point in modern history. Genocide in real time by a western ally. The callous and cruel way that the Labour government dismisses genocide is abhorrent. Life has no meaning in late capitalism.

By ratting on Jesse Ventura's unionization efforts, Hulk Hogan denied all of his coworkers, and generations of performers who came after him, insurance and a retirement fund, and in that, shares in responsibility for the early deaths of several other wrestlers.

The fascists targeting hotels with Asylum Seekers in are cynical grifters who don’t care about public services, housing or sexual abuse - unless they can frame it as a race war. These people never joined anti austerity demos or campaigns to improve housing. They are manipulating people
