My response to the Singapore government’s malicious, false, & defamatory statement following the denial of entry into Singapore & the subsequent deportation on 22 March 2026.

By persecuting those who oppose imperialist, genocidal violence, who is Singapore protecting?

[Kevin Tan @KevinTan101]

Solidarity with an accomplished scholar with the utmost integrity. With no reason provided, history suggests this aligns with past curtailments of principled action against imperialism and of academic freedom.

I’ve been banned from entering Singapore & was just deported to Malaysia. I asked immigration to provide the grounds for the ban/deportation, but they said they could not disclose them. It’s stunning bcs I stayed there for 5 years & was conferred a doctoral degree on 31 January.

someday i will write an essay about how the western-based diasporas of the developing world are the colonial intermediaries of the modern era, and that day is today.

tune in on substack this evening.

I wrote this article about how certain progressives—both white and non-white UK citizens—calling for forging alliances with white supremacists in the name of advancing the Palestinian cause regurgitate British imperialist propaganda anchored in white supremacy & anti-communism:

“My name is Assata Shakur […] and I am a revolutionary. A Black revolutionary. By that i mean that i have declared war on all forces that have raped our women, castrated our men, and kept our babies empty-bellied.” — “To My People,” July 4, 1973.

Right on.

[susan abulhawa | سوزان ابو الهوى @susanabulhawa]

two years of a holocaust, wanton slaughter, starvation, total destruction, decapitation of leadership, unprecedented sadism and cruelty for all the world to see....

and the resistance not only continues, but adapts, regroups, and escalates.

such persistence in the face of extraordinary odds is how we should all fight empire. whether you agree with them or not, their steadfastness should inspire us all to persist and escalate in the ways we choose to resist.

The world will forget this. Defeating fascism means defeating its roots - the U.S./EU/NATO Axis of Domination and its offshoots - the racist fascist colonial project called Israel.

A beautiful tribute from Andy Robertson 💔

[Curtis Jones @CurtisJones]

It’s hard to find the exact words how this feels.

An unbelievable player & a great person to everyone. Grateful we shared so many memories on and off the pitch brother.

I send my thoughts and prayers to the whole family.

Rest peacefully Diogo and André ❤️

The Diogo Jota news has rattled me, he just won the Prem, Nations League, and got married all within a month, and his life has been cut short. RIP 🕊️

Can't begin to say the impact jordan had on me, he's even the reason I first joined this hellhole 15+ years ago, jbs and batb got me through some tough times and god knows how much I and many others will miss him, his brilliance, humour and passion truly made him one of a kind

[Mike Bohn @MikeBohn]

Breaks my heart to share the news to the MMA world that Jordan Breen has passed away.

Jordan forgot more about MMA than most of us will ever remember. One of the smartest souls I ever met. His passion was truly unique.

Today would've been his birthday. Will miss you buddy. 💔
