People made fun of him and said it wasn’t possible. People made us believe it would send China into a depression and recession. We’ve been lied to, and the people who lied to us want us to believe it’s normal to spend your whole life’s savings and the rest of your life’s salary on a house.
The scenes from Iran are breathtaking, and offer a stark contrast to the celebration of 250 years of the US.
An oligarch-run settler colony will never command the loyalty and mass appeal that are the mainstay of revolutionary societies.
The future is being built in the South.
Das #israel|ische Regime foltert den entführten Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya zu Tode:
„Das ist das letzte Mal, dass Sie mich sehen werden“, sagte er zu seinem Anwalt. „Sie haben mich hierhergebracht, um mich zu töten. Ich glaube nicht, dass ich das überleben werde. Das ist das Ende.“
DZAYUM.
Look. At. This. Crowd.
It’s been exactly 16 hours since people are coming in and out the Mosala (prayer hall) in Tehran.
And it’s been the most crowded it has ever been right now.
All to bid farewell to our martyred leader, in the biggest funeral ceremony in modern history.
Protesting against the AFD is understandable but they aren't in power. The CDU and SPD are and it is they who have been driving the remilitarisation of Germany and increasing repression of dissent. If an AFD government does come to power it will do so on the reactionary foundations built by the establishment parties.
After nearly a month, the US-backed, far-right electoral coup in Peru has succeeded. The daughter of the US-backed former fascist dictator, Fujimori, a convicted war criminal who committed genocide, has been installed in power.
The left-wing, pro-working class candidate, Roberto Sánchez Palomino, was winning when the votes were counted after the June 7 election, so the corrupt electoral authorities delayed the count and spent nearly a month cooking the books, overseeing some very extreme irregularities, especially with supposed votes from abroad that magically appeared and made Fujimori "win".
Keiko Fujimori ran for president multiple times, but always lost, because she is extremely unpopular in Peru. But Trump and Marco Rubio made sure she would be put in power this time, just as they blatantly meddled in recent elections to support right-wing candidates in Argentina, Colombia, Honduras, etc.
Keiko's father was the fascist dictator Alberto Fujimori, who, with US support, dissolved Congress, implemented mass privatizations, and committed genocide against indigenous peoples, sterilizing huge numbers of them without their consent (with funding from the US government).
The US-backed dictator was later formally convicted of corruption, bribery, kidnapping, murder, and crimes against humanity. His nepo baby daughter always defended his crimes, and the US empire just helped put her in power in an electoral coup.
if you are confused as to why Taylor Swift is getting married in MSG it’s because they have effectively the best setup for concert film style video production and she’s 100% going to turn it into an Eras tour esque theater experience to market to her rabid fanbase
Ich erkenne in der Reaktion des DGB auf den Großangriff der Bundesregierung gegen uns, die große Herausforderung die Fahimis dieses Landes aus den Gewerkschaften zu prügeln dass es nur so kracht
Holy shit.
Maradona in 2018 on the day the World Cup 2026 was awarded to USA, Mexico and Canada, goes on saying:
“They will do 4 quarters of the game instead of two halves so to put commercials, you’ll see”
Today is US Independence Day, but for Native Americans, there isn't much to celebrate.
Millions of Indigenous and Black individuals have endured enslavement, torture, forced displacement, and brutal killings.
Today, racism towards Indigenous and Black people still persists.
It’s now been 1,000 days since the genocide in Gaza began. I’ll never forget the overwhelming feeling of dread and horror, knowing the hell Israel would unleash on October 8th. Their sadism surpassed my wildest expectations. Free Palestine, always and forever 💔🇵🇸
