Why can these pro genocide moral degenerates never keep Black people out of their mouth. The “rise in anti-Semitism” in Canada is caused by DEI and critical race theory? Never forget that anti-Palestinian racism and anti-Blackness go hand in hand.

@jonkay Which part of her statement was incorrect?
None.

Perhaps you should attend a pro-Palestine anti-genocide rally sometime. You'd learn alot.

[Jews Say No To Genocide @JewsSayNo]

An Ontario government appointee to @UofT’s Governing Council is using his institutional power to target students, smear professors, and push policies that restrict dissent. This isn’t about “free speech” it’s about using his power to silence opposition. 🧵#ONpoli

[Ali Abunimah @AliAbunimah]

@MarkJCarney “Iran-related hostilities” is the international imperialist-Zionist aggression version of “police-involved shooting”

[Jews Say No To Genocide @JewsSayNo]

Today, @UofT is platforming Dr. Rachel Spitzer at a "Refugee Health Primer." This is the same faculty member who actively campaigned to shut down the North American Refugee Health Conference (#NARHC 2025). Unconscionable hypocrisy. 🧵

Israel is breaking the laws of humanity, engaged in a cycle of escalating aggression and impunity. This learned behaviour is modeled after settler-colonial states like Canada. I am the daughter of a Coast Salish woman whose ancestors survived the brutality of genocide and colonial erasure by taking their survival into their own hands, protecting and caring for one another. Indigenous resistance is more than a tradition: it is an obligation.

I am joining the Freedom Flotilla Coalition’s Women’s boat to Gaza, part of a global effort to break the siege on Gaza NOW. Our boat is named the Hind Rajab, honouring a beautiful little Palestinian girl killed while pleading for help to come. We will come.

We are all women, and all healthcare providers. We are lawful, peaceful, and humanitarian.

My mothers farewell words to me: “Your ancestors are sea-bearing people. You have nothing to be afraid of. The ocean knows you and will protect you. Whatever happens, you will be guided.”

Free Palestine.

Political violence has no place in America.

It should be reserved only for all the poor countries we bomb to pieces.

You know, the killing is so relentless that you almost get used to it. A classroom of children killed every single day. You write about it, you read about it. Someone’s mother digs herself up from the rubble. Someone’s father is split in half. There was a video of wounded man using his arms to crawl across the road. Another man is so hungry he weeps. You read the stories. Each one is more brutal than the next and somehow the brutality is banal. You are numb, for better or for worse. But there are moments in the day, maybe just a singular moment, when you actually contend with the magnitude of the tragedy, when you are able to quantify the loss and in those moments you feel crushed—there are no adjectives. There are people mourning their lovers. Students missing their teachers. Orphans. Widowers. Grandmothers who look just like your own. I cry when I think about the people who were martyred just hours before they could apologize for something, or confess to something, or have something to eat. Or the slain who believed they would survive. And as the rancid rotten people of the world pontificate and debate the definition of genocide, you are at war with yourself, trying desperately to ignore the material meaning of the word. You read the news and you read the news and it is so hard to accept that the dead, the thousands of people they are slaughtering, they are your loved ones and your loved ones’ loved ones. This isn’t just a bad dream.

[Jehad Abusalim @JehadAbusalim]

Israelis do not want to end their genocidal war on Gaza because they will not know what to do with themselves if the war ends today. This is not about Netanyahu and his coalition, it is about how this entire “society” has indulged so deeply in bloodshed, sadism, and murder that there is no return from it anymore. Once you take joy, pride, and comfort in the mass murder of families and children, in starving people, in torturing and raping prisoners systematically, once you normalize the complete destruction of cities, the erasure of communities and memories, once you dig up graves and desecrate bodies, once you mutilate the dead, once you shoot hungry children in the head, once you do all of this every day for years without pause, you lose whatever is left of your humanity. You become a monster, and death and destruction become your only profession and industry. There is no return from this. Israel will not stop unless others stop it. And Gaza will not be the final stop. Genocide will expand and engulf the entire region.

Their message is clear: either the region submits to the will of Israel and its leaders, where Israel becomes the sole hegemon that conquers, occupies, assassinates, destroys, bombs, seizes resources, and controls strategic positions whenever and wherever it wishes, or the region will be punished and disciplined. That's it. Israel has now revealed its true, original, and authentic self: a murderous and genocidal machine that knows no bounds.

All those who hesitated, collaborated, or believed their silence, collaboration, or complicity would buy them safety and spare them Israel’s fury will regret it sooner or later. They will be forced to fight back, and they will be forced to defend themselves. The region will be at war for years, perhaps decades, and it will not see peace or stability until the very questions at the heart of this are resolved: occupation, tyranny, equality, and dignity. This could be stopped now if the international community had even a modicum of will and courage. But it does not seem like it.

🚨 URGENT CALL TO ALL WORKERS: DEFEND AIR CANADA CUPE COMPONENT WORKERS’ RIGHT TO STRIKE 🚨

Where: Toronto Pearson International Airport, Terminal 1
When: 9:00 AM, Tomorrow - August 17

The federal government is moving to trample the Charter-protected right to strike forcing binding arbitration and back-to-work orders that strip workers of free and fair collective bargaining.
This is unconstitutional government overreach. If they get away with it here, this sets a dangerous precedent.

✊🏾Join the labour movement at Toronto Pearson. Solidarity with Air Canada flight attendants. Defend the right to strike.

#cdnpoli #onpoli @waltonmom

[Jessa 🎙️🔻 @Jessa_McLean]

Solidarity with the @AirCanada flight attendants defying the forces that would see them work for free.

All unions needs to defy back-to-work legislation in all its forms.

If we don’t have the right to strike - we will have nothing.

[Spring Magazine @springmagca]

Air Canada workers are striking against unpaid work. They are defying Carney's anti-democratic back to work order in the process. Workers have the power! #aircanadastrike

Death to the IDF, the occupation, to Zionism, to imperialism, and to capitalism.

We make no apologies.

Israel has “killed more journalists than the U.S. Civil War, World Wars I and II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War (including the conflicts in Cambodia and Laos), the wars in Yugoslavia in the 1990s and 2000s, and the post-9/11 war in Afghanistan, combined” https://t.co/4NWrUHQ9Av
