Today is the 10-year anniversary of the U.S.-backed war on Yemen.

While much of the media is focused on a leaked national security group chat, the victims of U.S. warfare on Yemen are gravely overlooked.

Canada: let's not authorize cynical removals of environmental regulation against bad logging & mining etc. in the name of "response to tariffs." It is so easy to see this coming. The US isn't the only place prone to oligarchs creating disaster capitalism they can profit from. 🧵 #cdnpoli #bcpoli

The level of antisemitism like actual antisemitism against Jews that people are willing to tolerate for the sake of Israel is truly extraordinary.

And I'm not even addressing the racism against Palestinians here.

Folks are shocked that their institutions, after professing commitments to climate justice and DEI, are now caving to Trump and scrubbing all references.

It's brutal.

And it's the smallest taste of what our students felt when their universities called in the cops b/c they protested a genocide.

Clear, succinct.
“Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic,” they said. “That means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice and a third, a fourth. Then what happens?”

This is always worth a reshare. Capitalism is based on an assumption of scarcity. An assumption not a fact. This essay read by the author robin wall kimmerer articulates another worldview. A gift economy that predates capitalism and is current in indigenous communities and all ecosystems
The Serviceberry: An Economy of Abundance – Robin Wall Kimmerer
As Robin Wall Kimmerer harvests serviceberries alongside the birds, she considers the ethic of reciprocity that lies at the heart of the gift economy.

A bunch of losers went out and threw Nazi salutes in Alberta, Canada yesterday while holding racist signs.

Might be time for the media to stop calling them “hand gestures” and start reporting on this big fucking problem for what it is!
