the Soviet Union had women cosmonauts and a legion of decorated antifascist war heroines the same year women in Canada were first "allowed" to open bank accounts without their husbands' written permission.
This is the moment Iranians heard the IRGC's fireworks had begun. I know you've already watched it, but I'd ask you to watch it again. Witness the true embrace which fills the air. People outside the resistance cannot grasp the depth of relief that revolutionaries in Iran feel right now. We are wholeheartedly in this war, and humanity stands with us. Great people. Great missiles. Great leadership. Great global support. What else is needed to celebrate for this moment? Nothing. It is WHOLE; Pure joy. Pure faith.
UPDATE: Bolivian police have fully RETREATED. 5 hours of pitched battles between police + paramilitary groups against striking workers who fought back with stones and slingshots. The people had them surrounded from highway and nearby forests, this strategy forced police to flee.
Claudia Sheinbaum has approval ratings of between 70 and 80%, thanks to her progressive policies which have lifted over 8 million people out of poverty.

Israel is explicitly warning Christian residents in southern Lebanon not to welcome Muslim residents among them, threatening to bomb Christian neighborhoods.
Israel is now searching for Muslims hiding in the attics of Christians. It’s not 1944. Read that again.
The goal isn't military. It's destabilizing social stability in Lebanon.
Bolivia's workers unions held a congress yesterday and confirmed that they will not take part in any dialogue or negotiations.
The general strike against neoliberalism continues, the number of barricades erected along highways is now 90, a record breaking number.
the "pro platner left" isn't surprising. it's the logical conclusion to the "i just wanted healthcare, free college and to tax the rich" dead end politics
Let's hope Senator Iván Cepeda wins the Colombian election, but we would be remiss to forget that President Gustavo Petro's undermining of Venezuela's voting results and disputing Maduro's democratic election helped pave the way for the US undermining Colombia's results.
