Not one work in the exhibition “Global Fascisms” at Berlin’s Haus der Kulturen der Welt acknowledges the world burning just beyond the door. In Jara Nassar’s words, “What is the role of art when the world is on fire?”

The same energy that defended Jimmy Kimmel should be used to defend Guevara, a journalist who is not facing any charges.

The Irish government should press ahead with the Occupied Territories Bill, to ban the import of goods and services from illegal Israeli settlements. (And now that I know AirBnB advertise for stays in those territories I’ll be using other apps. I’m disgusted that an Irish company would do this.)

As someone said prior, the only reason Greta got released is because people were very loud about her specifically. There are still 8 other flotilla members detained, apparently without fresh water in bedbug infested prison. They all deserve to be fought for, too.
Guys, please talk about Thiago Avila.
He's the Brazilian activist on Freedom Flotilla kidnapped by Israel. He's still detained and has been doing a hunger and water strike since yesterday early morning. There have been reports of unsanitary conditions too.
Please talk about him.

The current UK government wants to 'turbocharge' AI with new purpose-built data centres in this country (there are already 153 data centres here).
Meanwhile United Utilities just asked us to start considering our water usage because reservoirs are more than 20% lower than this time last year.

Israel has created a deadly concentration camp & is starving civilians, including babies, to death. Everyone knows this is happening. Over the next few weeks politicians will sombrely stand by memorials that read “never again” without, somehow, bursting into flames in the heat of their hypocrisy.
