When individuals are made illegal, it is not enough that we are allies. We must instead be accomplices.

🇺🇸 ranks 57th below 5 former Soviet republics (🇦🇲 🇪🇪 🇱🇻 🇱🇹 🇲🇩), 3 former Yugoslav republics (🇲🇪 🇲🇰 🇸🇮), and 2 former apartheid states (🇳🇦 🇿🇦).
Do not give in to authoritarian bullies. Freedom dies if we fail to do so.

The genocidal apartheid regime of 🇮🇱 cries "wolf" about neighbors having nuclear technology. That's rich coming from the true loose cannon in the region, which doesn't even have the spine to confirm or deny having such weapons.

Market tyranny: life gets reduced to being paid too little, to purchase things that cost too much, which are of low quality & not particularly desired.
Any proposals to change this are dismissed by mainstream politics with snarky, Hobbesian disdain. (1/2)

One solution to the "Fermi Paradox" is the idea of a "great filter" that no civilization in the observable universe has passed.
What if the filter is socioeconomic organization that creates unjust hierarchies, degrades the environment, & prices essential resources above what most can afford?

Do NOT applaud the current 🇩🇪 leadership. They had 20+ months to condemn the senseless slaughter of civilians, the expulsions, the imposed famine, and scores of other atrocities.
They silenced dissenters and unilaterally branded them antisemites. Too little, too late.

Merz says Israeli actions in Gaza 'no longer justified' – DW – 05/27/2025
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said the fight against "Hamas terrorism" does not justify the suffering of civilians in Gaza. He no longer "understands what Israel is trying to achieve."

Political logic in 🇩🇪 requires mental gymnastics like no other.
"Solidarity with Israel against all antisemitism" (by Antifa?) needs two asterisks.
1) Anti-fascism here entails siding with genocide & apartheid. 🤔
2) "Antisemitism" here means any valid criticism of the state committing these acts.

1/3 🧵- 9 years ago today, that sociopath tweeted how much he loved Hispanics. Now his apologists & sycophants will claim any substantial cruelty is actually a sign of his virtue. He's not deporting American children, some of whom are being treated for illnesses. Instead, he is reuniting families.

Passover has begun. Let’s take a moment to appreciate a carpenter turned itinerant preacher who went to Temple only to see bankers, merchants, & moneychangers exploiting people. Disgusted & enraged, he drove them out shouting: “Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!”

Puerto Rico 🇵🇷: a sign that separate & unequal persists in the U.S. Intentionally excluded from statehood, because it serves the interests of the obscenely wealthy. Seen as a "foreign" part of the States such that when Puerto Ricans go to the mainland, they are still called "immigrants."
Odd how a US territory (that it refuses to resolve the status of) where 50% of children live in poverty has been undergoing over a decade of demographic collapse and you rarely hear about it.

I write so much about the fake "antisemitism crisis" not only because it's being used to destroy civil rights throughout the western world, but because it's one of the most dark and disturbing things I've ever witnessed.
