@BrankoMilan@lea_ypi@PikettyWIL Google translate gives both you and Prof Picketty a sex change but it makes for interesting and hopeful reading. (Sooner we agree on a gender neutral pronoun in English the better.)
@jasonhickel To me public ownership divides into four main categories: state, municipal, worker, consumer. Many anarchists only believe in the final three.
@SikotiHamiltonR Vanuatu is the country New Zealand tells itself it is - truly punching above its weight. Nuclear free before us, invented bungee jumping, and a real independent foreign policy. The World Court Case was a triumph of grassroots activism taken to the world.
Funny how @BBCWorld website always forgets to mention he is a war criminal with an arrest warrant issued by the Hague. You'd have thought it might be considered relevant information?

@secondzeit A friend in Christchurch waited months to get Tame Iti's autobiography. I thought that was a promising sign for the nation's future. Not sure what the popularity of Soper's book says? Give a man a platform and over six decades or so he finds some followers.
‘Besides her extensive personal experience dealing with far-right antisemitism — including being doxxed in neo-Nazi chat groups — Silverstein emphasised in her evidence that “the majority of the antisemitism [she has] experienced has come from Jewish Zionists”.
“While I have a PhD in Jewish history, it has repeatedly been made clear to me that I will never be employed in a Jewish Studies department in Australia because I and my work are anti-Zionist,” Silverstein’s evidence stated. “I have also been targeted on social media by Jewish people who discuss me as being a ‘traitor to Jews’, as ‘self-hating’, and so on.”
Examples of such targeting featured in Silverstein’s report include a Melbourne rabbi accusing her of “adopting a narrative of those who hate us”; a prominent Melbourne lawyer describing her on social media as “a token self-hating Jew”; a pro-Zionist Instagram account depicting her and other anti-Zionist Jews as rats and comparing them to Nazi collaborators; and abusive emails labelling her “kapo shit” and wondering why her family did not die in the Holocaust.
While many of the witnesses before the Commission have routinely conflated antisemitism with support for Palestinians and opposition to Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Silverstein noted in her report that, “I have never experienced antisemitism from proponents of the [pro-Palestine] movement throughout the course of my extensive, decades-long, professional and personal involvement in the Palestine solidarity movement and in researching histories of Palestinians in Australia”.’

Cuba is a superpower when it comes to the delivery of medical assistance to the world's poorest. The World's only military superpower is doing its best to destroy that and in the process imposing sanctions that will cause thousands of deaths.

@sfliberty This is incoherent. Libertarian socialist doesn't believe in central planning. The difference between the libertarian socialists - often called anarchists - and Marxists and Fabians is just that.
@Mountain_Tui@JennaLynchNZ Thanks for sharing the video. If I was in her electorate I would vote for her based on that alone. Articulate, informed and has the back of her most vulnerable constituents.
@briebriejoy As a Jew I'm grateful, and surprised, that the New York Times ran the story. Nothing antisemitic about opposing state terror. It's a long tradition in some parts of the community.
@DanielBMate@adam_louis52328 The Broederbond no doubt had manuals on protecting Apartheid that could be a useful guides. And of course that brotherhood was informed by the Nazis so they could go back the fascist source material for inspiration.
@SikotiHamiltonR I joined the Petone Workingmen's Club in the hope it would unlock its Makara boatshed to me. First time I went I got stuck behind a Rhodesian RSA member at reception. The various clubs have reciprocal arrangements. It's a lot like an old-style brewery owned public bar.
@SikotiHamiltonR The Savage Clubs may have disappeared but the The Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes are still going and doing good work in Samoa. Only open to men. https://t.co/RZ9oIWN7qE
