“We are forgotten in our calamity. But we were a source of happiness during our revolution. Everyone wanted to know how the Sudanese people overthrew alBashir.

Then the coup came, and we exhibited a courage that can’t be explained. But we were alone.” (1/2)

Afghanistan suffered seven earthquakes in eight days. The worst one on Oct 11 killed at least 2400 people - 90% of them women and children (UN).

Gaslighting: We see you, we grieve with you, that’s why we’re giving Israel $14,000,000,000 in bombs, munition, tanks & warplanes to slaughter you!

Here’s 50 bucks each & we’ll call it even, right?

(This is called PR & reputational risk management, NOT aid!)

@PanAfricanRevie @LonzenRugira Except under capitalist destruction of the planet, its Intellectual property scams, and extremely deteriorating living and working conditions, survival also becomes increasingly unlikely

Recovering from small illnesses can really be a mini-rebirth

The conditions of illness portray one of the most feeble aspects of the human species

A difficult piece to write - my longread on the violence that has engulfed Khartoum, the heavy toll of its destruction, and despite the city's faults, what its loss forecloses in terms of peaceful resolution to Sudan's war.

3) historical questions from/of the agrarian class, which were central to the 1974 revolution and ET's historical development, remain and are likely to be exasperated

Anyone following the struggles of farmers to ensure fertilizers across Ethiopia understands that 1) the most profound self organization and mobilizations are based on class qns 2) the reality is exploitation is a shared experience & the state responds violently despite ethnicity
