Unpredictability and capriciousness of the powerful are hallmark strategies for extracting obedience in master-slave / abusive / colonial / imperial relationships — whether between individuals, communities, or nations.

Super smart of the @democrats.org & their billionaire donors to shift the messaging from @sanders.senate.gov & @aoc.bsky.social’s “Fighting Oligarchy” (names real targets & includes a call to action) to “#NOKings” (abstract non-existent target, no call to action)….a brilliant narrative redirection.

We must recognize and acknowledge how racial capital has deployed BOTH universalism (the United States) AND particularism (Israel) to justify global hegemony.

For @truthout.org I wrote about Mahmoud Khalil’s detention, how Trump is capitalizing on the normalization of incarcerating immigrants to enforce his creeping fascist agenda, and why this moment calls for us to bridge across our movements for social change. truthout.org/articles/kha...

People who want to live a calm, unbothered middle class life in the world’s largest settler colony. LOLOLOL.

Recent events have shown exactly how finance capital is holding American innovation back. @openai would've fared better WITHOUT all the capitalists rushing in and pushing a closed model. If we want to "Make America Great Again" (🙄) we gotta give the bankers & VC execs a haircut.

I feel like people who really know about tech/MLL/AI did not migrate over to this app in large numbers…

Billionaires & venture capital shouldn’t control our digital lives.

Trump making moves on Greenland, Canada and the Panama Canal is NOT ANY MORE RIDICULOUS than when the first Europeans set foot on Turtle Island and claimed all the land they could see for whatever European royal family had bankrolled their fleet’s crossing.

We don’t need a moral epiphany of the West, we need a weakened West that is not able to impose its will on the rest of the world.

美國肯定背後鼓勵尹總統宣布戒嚴。拜登用剩下的幾個星期努力地推動美國外交政策以留給川普不可退出的局勢。

Their own ancestors called themselves “settlers” and “colonists” but now the White Western establishment busy doing things like writing articles in The Atlantic to convince you settler colonialism isn’t a thing.

The West is ok with POC as:

✅ poor refugees
✅ good immigrants grateful for “liberal values”
✅ human rights victims

But never as
⛔️ sovereign, free subjects

As soon as POC actually stand up to seize their own future, it’s back to labels like “terrorists” “thugs” “tribal”, “axis of evil.”
