it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like

"A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act."

fuck yeah

Remember: The GOP’s nonsensical culture wars are meant to distract you from corporate corruption and plunder. [Cartoon by Jace Avery]

Fuck Israel so very much today and forever. May they suffer fates far worse than what they've done to Gaza.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

You have more in common with the average Iranian citizen than you do with the people that run this country

Don't let all the news distract you from the ongoing starvation and killing of Palestinians in Gaza.

The Israeli govt is deliberately trying to prevent news getting out . It dismisses what news there is as Hamas propaganda while refusing to let international journalists in. An information war too.

As you watch ICE terrorize Los Angeles, remember: private prison companies are going to get very, very rich off Trump's cruelty.

Just listened to some both sides journalism about a starving civilian population being shot while they try to get food.

What is our profession even doing?

staging a show-and-tell about a fake genocide during a real genocide to the government that has done the most to seek justice for that real genocide is designed to break our brains. They know what they are doing. www.cnn.com/2025/05/21/w...

Canadian media coverage of the genocide in Gaza always starts with the point of view of the war criminals.
They treat the deliberate death by starvation of thousands of children as if it were some kind of natural disaster.
CBC coverage often sounds like it was written in the offices of the IDF.

A Horrible Truth That Shouldn’t Be….

"Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool [...] To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery." Octavia Butler

Hossam Shabat, a 23 year old journalist who documented the genocide of his people left a final message. shared by his team.

Take a moment today to read about a few of the young children whom Trump and Musk killed by shutting down USAID. The blame for these deaths falls on them.

There will be hundreds of thousands more dead kids before their lethal crusade against foreign aid ends. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Capitalism won't solve what capitalism created.

This took far, far, FAR too long. The M23 has now been responsible for 3,000 deaths and the reports of atrocities are mounting. It is about to seize Bukavu. Just how long does the EU need to get the point? www.reuters.com/world/africa...
