Iceland did something after the 2008–09 crash that the US, UK and EU pretend is impossible as Trump and his vile ilk ride rough shod over our democracies.

It confronted and punished its corrupt bankers and failed politicians.

And rebuilt a fairer society from the rubble. 🧵

“Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.”

This is the unbelievable story of the man who said those famous words, Frederick Douglass.

This is Phil Piratin — the 1930s activist who showed us how to beat today's fascists and racists as they try to tear down democracy in the US and the UK.

From rent strikes to the Battle of Cable Street, Piratin proved that when communities organise, fascism runs away.

� Water is the new oil —-Pause to read �These 5 corporations are quietly taking over the supply to control your future.����1. Nestlé – The Global Water HoarderFor decades, Nestlé has amassed water rights worldwide—from California to Africa—pumping groundwater for pennies and bottling it for profit. CEO once said “water is NOT a human right” — It owns brands like Perrier �, San Pellegrino, Acqua Panna, and until recently Poland Spring, Deer Park, Ice Mountain, Arrowhead, Ozarka, Pure Life (now under BlueTriton).Communities are left with drying wells � and shrinking access to clean water while Nestlé’s bottled empire keeps expanding.2. Coca-Cola – Draining Communities DryBehind the ads and refreshment, Coca-Cola’s bottling plants have been accused of draining aquifers in water-stressed regions.Its portfolio includes Dasani, smartwater, Vitaminwater, Topo Chico, and European names like Apollinaris, Arwa, Abbey Well.Villages run dry � while Coke profits flow.3. J.P. Morgan – Turning Water Into an InvestmentWall Street doesn’t just invest—they buy �. J.P. Morgan treats water rights like stocks and real estate.They know scarcity will make water more valuable than oil.Ordinary people are left paying whatever price the “owners” decide.4. Bill Gates – Farmland & Water AccessGates is now the largest private farmland owner in the U.S. �Farmland isn’t just about crops—it gives control over the underground water that feeds them.When elites own both the land and the water beneath it, they decide who eats… and who doesn’t.5. Vanguard & BlackRock – Owning It AllThese investment giants hold stakes in nearly every major water player: Nestlé, Coca-Cola, Veolia, and more.They don’t just control one company—they dominate the entire industry �.As water scarcity grows, their profits skyrocket while the planet pays the price.This isn’t just capitalism—it’s control. Whoever controls water, controls life .Question: Should water be a right?

We are breaching planetary boundaries, and much of it is connected to food and how we produce food. And it would be good for individual health, too!

Uruguay proves renewable energy isn’t a dream — it’s a choice.

The fossil fuel industry is behind most of the climate disinformation you see and hear today.

Charlie Kirk was no exception.
Charlie Kirk's extremism was fossil fueled
Big Oil's money gave Kirk a larger platform to spread baseless climate conspiracy theories—as well as other extremist views.

To build clean energy projects that overcome community opposition & sustain demand in the face of partisanship, don't deregulate, disempowering stakeholders outside of industry. Rather use "participatory policy design."

Today, and everyday, we are grateful the amazing activists who fought for the freedoms we take for granted today.
We are grateful for those fighting to ensure we still have some freedoms in the future.

So drink water. Breathe deep. Take a walk. Rest, that’s rebellion too.

Then take action.

That’s not an accident, it’s a tactic!

But we can fight back.
