You can vehemently disagree with Palestine Action activists goals, whilst simultaneously be horrified a judge can decide AFTER a conviction if it was terrorism related amd double a sentence.

Being able to class an offense as terrorism AFTER conviction without charging them with terrorism should bother everyone.

Any protest action that is now determined as trying to "change government policy" can have this applied.

So today it's Palestine Action, but next it'll be immigration protests, farmers protests, NHS, tax etc etc.

SERIOUS QUESTION: Do you ever really get overwhelmed by how our current reality is a genuine dystopian nightmare yet everyone still acts like it is completely normal ??

white nationalists with dozens of previous convictions who just did a race riot in southampton got less time in prison than people who broke equipment used to carry out a genocide

"In one incident, he punched a partner unconscious, knocked out her front teeth"

These are the "English patriots" rioting against violence perpetrated by migrants.

The worst part is him saying the strike on the elementary school in Minab (that killed 168 schoolchildren and teachers) "is a use case that doesn't even violate our red lines."

[Joseph @Jojosdojo]

It is truly mad that some cop can go on tv and undermine the mayor of London whilst shilling for the societal death poison that is Palantir.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

There's a Genocide happening in Gaza.

Our Government is arresting pensioners for holding cardboard signs that say "I support Palestine Action."

And Andy Burnham - labours apparent last hope - won't even acknowledge what's really happening.

A nazi becoming the first trillionaire off taxpayer subsidies mergers and apartheid mine inheritance isn't an anomaly. It's showing you what the system rewards.

Capitalism is a death cult

[Richard Sanders @PulaRJS]

Jeremy Johnson - in 50 years time this will be the only 1.39 minutes of your life you'll be remembered for. It'll be played in genocide museums to sum up the complicity and callous brutality of the British state in the face of the slaughter of the Palestinian people - and the courage of those who opposed it.

[Nathan J Robinson @NathanJRobinson]

Instead of discussing how Elon Musk is now the world's first trillionaire, we should talk about how he killed hundreds of thousands of people through his dismantling of food and medical aid to poor countries

In Britain, you're a terrorist if you try to materially stop a genocide. If you join a pogrom, you're just "fed up".

[Jonathan Cook @Jonathan_K_Cook]

Apartheid South Africa and Nazi Germany needed compliant judges to provide a legal veneer to their darkest crimes.

Judge Johnson joins their wretched company. He overturned a jury's conviction of four anti-genocide activists for criminal damage and sentenced them as terrorists instead.

As one their barristers pointed out, the four defendants were initially arrested by police on suspicion of involvement in an act of terrorism. But the prosecution decided not to charge them with terrorism offences because it knew no jury would ever convict them based on the evidence.

Instead the Crown held two trials: a sham one for the jury, and the real one conducted in secret by the judge. That is not justice. It is a show trial worthy of the worst tyrannical regimes.

The problem isn’t welfare @AndyBurnhamGM

It’s extraction.

The welfare state is magic self perpetuating.

The problem isn’t welfare.

The welfare state was one of the greatest engines of prosperity ever created: healthier children, educated workers, security that allowed people to innovate and take risks.

The problem is extraction, an economy where wealth flows upwards and away from the communities that create it.

A society cannot cut its way to prosperity if its productive foundations are being hollowed out.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Gut wrenching to see four young people jailed for direct action against an arms supplier to Israel.

Years in prison for protesting to save lives in Gaza, with 'terrorism' used despite no jury convicting them of it.

A truly dangerous attack on the right to protest.

I saw a post on Reddit that said that “The underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.” And I don’t think I’ve ever seen AI described so incisively.

[Wokerati Marty @WokeratiMarty]

Here’s injustice Jeremy Johnson handing down the sentences at today’s disgusting stitched up Palestine Action trial.

Any faith I ever had in the fairness of the British justice system is completely is dead.

[Ross Greer @Ross_Greer]

🚨 French authorities have confirmed Israeli interference in May's Scottish elections.

Will @YvetteCooperMP follow France's lead and summon the Israeli ambassador? Or will she continue Labour's tradition of letting them away with absolutely anything?

These Labour politicians resigning because the government won't slash public services and benefits even more than they already have to provide funds for the Forever War tells you all you need to know about our Establishment.
Time to get rid.
Seriously.
