#European traditions. #Italian police see a 'black man' in an expensive car and detain him. Turns out he is the owner of the car, the French football player Tiemoue Bakayoko from Chelsea who has now moved to #Milan. Welcome to the 'free world' Tiemoue.
On Saturday, UNAC people spoke at a rally in Germany and met with people from the wonderful Coop Antiwar Cafe. The rally was in front of the #USA embassy. #NOwar with Russia.
HAPPENING NOW — Hundreds of people are marching in Uvalde, TX are marching in 106 degree heat to demand answers. Chants of “save our kids” and signs calling for Chief Arredondo to be fired are filling the streets. Families of the victims are joined by people from all over Texas.
There's a lot of right-wing propaganda claiming socialized medicine is supposedly "bureaucratic" and "inefficient," but this graph shows the insanely ridiculous bureaucracy that actually does exist in the privatized for-profit healthcare system in the US
Attempting to blame Chinese "debt trap" for the Sri Lanka crisis is either shameless propaganda or wilful ignorance. China holds 10% of Sri Lanka's foreign debt, generally at lower interest rates and longer repayment terms. The bulk is held by Japan and the Western institutions.
With a government that doesn't give a damn about them and has passed on the cost of the ruling class war in Ukraine on to the working class, why don't people in the U.S. rebel?
There is no such thing as a 'free speech absolutist.'
There the is the speech of working and oppressed people, and the speech of the ruling class.
You can only support one.
The ruling class is unapologetic about which speech it elevates and which it suppresses. So should we.
The American flag is not some abstract symbol of democracy, it's an assertion of class solidarity with Western capitalists, imperial alignment with the U.S. empire, and a call for neocolonialism to benefit local elite compradors.
When people tell you who they are, believe them.
@arduousandy @Acosta Actually that is exactly what the blockade does. Other countries and companies that trade with Cuba are fined/iced out of US markets. The US makes it nearly impossible for Cuba to access the SWIFT banking system used for international financial transactions.
Young people are enamored with "anti-racist" rhetoric because they think they are fighting racist systems in America. The TRUTH is they are fighting America itself and the very values the country was founded on.
Hundreds of Cuban artists have come together and released a song rejecting recent US attacks on their country. Culture against empire.
