Half a million people in London right now. Jewish activists in New York last night. Polls in both countries overwhelmingly support a ceasefire in Gaza. Cannot imagine this level of support even five years ago. Whatever happens, the Palestinians are no longer alone.

This is just the beginning. We can't let this wave peter out with no lasting legacy & infrastructure of resistance to show for it. With no gains and no concessions. With nothing but "just vote" & "write your congresspeople" to do next. If they get away with this, we're on a whole new playing field.

If you're going to a protest, make some connections. Talk about spending, mutual aid, direct action, and other tactics. Make Signal & Discord groups for further work and protracted engagement. Go deeper with it while you are surrounded by community in meatspace.

The marches and protests happening are beautiful, and I want to reiterate that they're a necessary part of the struggle.

But also reiterate that these alone will not accomplish our goals. Not a single engine of war has shut down, nor will it until we diversify tactics & use power, not just voices.

Twitter/X is now removing headlines from links and Threads/Meta is prohibiting searches of public health terms like Covid and vaccines.

Billionaires are dangerously restricting people’s access to news.
