Hodges Figgis is indeed a lovely shop, but that doesn't matter a fuck when they discipline staff for showing solidarity during a genocide.

Thankfully Dublin has plenty of indy & Irish owned chains to buy books from, like the ones mentioned below as well as Gutter, Dubray, Easons etc

Oooffff, apparently Hodge Figgis are on the side of Big Genocide, including firing a staff member for his stance on supporting Palestine.
Shop in your LOCAL (non-UK operated) bookshops, people.

Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.

I got literally BEATEN to the ground WITH A TRICOLOUR almost 5 years ago. Mick Clifford went to the next far-right protest & wrote his most derided opinion piece. He never expressed horror at this use of "our flag" as an actual weapon. But NOW he wants the flag back. 😂

ICE officers have been ordered to HUNT DOWN immigrants.

GESTAPO

Senior US immigration officials directed its officers to “turn the creative knob up to 11” even when it comes to arresting people they called “collaterals”,
and think up tactics to “push the envelope”.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.

As someone who experienced threats and harassment from armed extremists for over a decade, I have empathy for anyone who feels afraid of retaliation for free speech. But at the end of the day, we all must make a choice: back down or double down.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

A very well-explained piece about what's coming in 🇺🇸.

Levitsky writes that US democracy will most likely break down in the coming months, but "what lies ahead is not fascist or single-party dictatorship, but competitive authoritarianism."
