I do find it funny that most of the Theatre Kid Left don't like me for questioning the patreon funding of their fav creators lol 💀 - if you don't upload much you should feel bad for taking all that money. I wouldn't be a patron to any big creator with so little uploads. Respect your audience !

This is the Greater Israel project also known as colonial expansion, but if you look closely you’ll realize this an oil field map.

Gaza Doesn't Need Our Tears, It Needs Our Anger
This isn't sad, it's enraging. And it deserves a response of unmitigated forceful aggression.

You don't have to personally like people who believe in Nazi politics. The same way you don't have to like anyone who is some dumb Lib.
As leftists we advocate for a better society for everyone - we think in terms of the collective and not the individual. I can hate an individual for their views

Got to say, the hundreds of people proudly setting out how much they despise 3 in 10 of their fellow countryfolk are rather making my point for me.
It's got to the stage where if 'you don't know anyone whose voting for Reform' you need to broaden your social circle.
Or, perhaps, reflect on what it is about your behaviour that means your friends don't feel able to be open with you about politics.

Antiwar activists led by @jvp.bsky.social occupied the lobby of the New York offices of Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand on Friday to denounce their votes against halting arms shipments to Israel.
Banging pots and pans, they chanted "Stop starving Gaza!" and "Never again for anyone!"

This is another thing people don’t realize about staying on X. Musk purposefully destroyed networks between activists & journalists, making it harder to work together.
Social media can be an incredible tool when it’s not controlled by fascist billionaires. It once helped start the Arab Spring.

I still think it's great that bluesky has incentivized blocking and disengagement from toxic content and accounts. When a platform incentivizes hairy conversation and community instead of engagement for ad revenue, amazing things start to happen.

I think the aversion to blocking from some is an extension of the idea that criticism or social ostracization for antisocial behavior or opinions is bad. You have a right to free speech, you don't have a right to be heard and be free from criticism.

Any peace or stability in the Global North is only possible at the expense of others under Imperial Capitalism.
That means that peace DOES NOT EXIST on Earth. So any effort to maintain the status quo is an inherently violent act.
