“As so many of the the commons were seized and fenced off long ago, and with the current assimilation of the data of our entire global civilization now used to birth and train an emerging artificial workforce (unlike anything previously encountered by humanity), it is time we start taking a good look at how resources could start to flow back to fund a guaranteed solid economic floor for everyone."

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

The genocide seems unstoppable,
Necrocapitalism seems invincible- but they are not!

All we need is UNITY. COORDINATION. PERSEVERANCE.

Keep Protesting. Striking. Boycotting. Litigating.

Not just once.
All the times needed till the Apartheid ends and the system which fed it too.

Now we know why Peter Thiel packed his bags for Argentina.

Milei just submitted his AI legislative framework to Congress, where he proposes:
- zero regulation on AI development,
- a brand-new "non-human corporation" category for AI/robot-operated entities with limited liability
-a low-tax regime with flexible governance rules.

The Dutch East India Company gave the world the limited liability company in 1602. Milei wants Argentina to do the same for autonomous AI agents in 2026.

Israel is tanking globally!

Across the 36 countries, a median of 67% of adults have an unfavorable view of Israel, while 25% have a favorable view.

In Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain, around half of adults or more say they have a very unfavorable view of the country.

Correct. Jewish Israelis were rarely ever held in administrative detention and when they were it was for days, sometimes weeks at the most.

Last year Israel held a 15 year American boy in solitary confinement for 5 of the 9 months he was in administrative detention- he was never charged with anything and the only allegation ever levied was that 2 days before 30 IDF soldiers raided his house and dragged him out of bed in the middle of the night someone reported seeing a group of boys throwing rocks by the highway.

No victims. No one was hit. Just an anonymous allegation that boys were throwing rocks days prior.

“I nodded off and was woken by my daughter’s hysterical crying. When I picked her up, I discovered rats had gnawed at her foot while she slept. I was so afraid, I felt my soul leave my body. I started screaming and crying, grabbed her and ran together with my husband between medical service points to find medicine or disinfectants against infection and poisoning. But the military doesn’t even allow medicine and disinfectants into Gaza.”

Rana Qarmut, 22, describes the helplessness of parents in displacement camps trying to protect their children from the rodent infestation in Gaza.

Israel’s systematic destruction of the water and sewage infrastructure have turned these camps into a public health crisis: the extreme levels of garbage and open sewage flowing between the tents are an ideal breeding ground for rodents and pests.

According to Save the Children figures from April 2026, the tents in more than 80% of displacement camps have rats, fleas and ticks inside regularly. As summer temperatures rise, the combination of pollution, unhygienic conditions and a shattered healthcare system is leading to the spread of severe skin and intestinal diseases, and turning simple injuries into life-threatening conditions.

By blocking the entry of basic necessities for survival, including medicines and pesticides, Israel is perpetuating an environment in Gaza that is unfit for human habitation, deliberately leaving millions of displaced people exposed to epidemics.

The genocide in Gaza continues.

In the late 1960s & 1970s, Israel's solution to Palestinians who opposed military occupation was deportation.

Israel deported educators, journalists, politicians, students and professionals.

They deported people for purported allegiances to Jordan, public opposition to Israeli occupation or public support for the PLO.

Israel deported school principals and supervisors who protested censorship of textbooks, teachers and students who initiated school strikes, attorneys who organized strikes.

Israel deported the mayor of Ramallah, Nadim Zaru, for protesting against the demolition of a Palestinian house, while other mayors were deported for crimes committed by their constituents.

The goal was to decapitate the Palestinian society to ensure acquiescence to Israel’s apartheid system.

I'm afraid that this is why the US administration wants to shut down ocean observations: they don't want the people to know what is happening in our oceans, as it does not fit their ideology and the interests of their fossil fuel industry funders.

To make sure British citizens realise what's going on, Palantir can now:

• Build and run the National Firearms Registry, tracking the addresses and medical files of 500,000 gun and explosives holders across all 43 police forces.

• Map your digital footprint by trialling police systems (like Project Nectar) that pull your texts, call logs, emails, and social media data into a single profile.

• Track your physical movements by linking live number plate trackers, CCTV locations, and mobile phone tower pings.

• Process unverified intelligence by feeding anonymous tips and police notes about who you meet into automated linking models.

• Profile police officers using data-matching tools that actively scrape the device logs, vehicle uses, and system logins of a force's own employees.

• Access direct NHS data through a £330 million contract, using admin privileges that let engineers view patient environments before the files are scrambled (pseudonymised).

This is the same Palantir used to coordinate the largest simultaneous terrorist attack in history by the IOF in Lebanon.

This is the same Palantir used by the IOF since 2014 and actively being used in Gaza.

Zack Polanski has signed an open letter urging the government to track British citizens who have served in the Israeli military.

The letter, organised by Declassified UK, demands home secretary Shabana Mahmood “monitor the entry of British-Israeli dual national citizens into the UK,” alongside investigating and prosecuting those guilty of war crimes. More than 14,000 people have already signed.

The letter references international obligations to ensure accountability for the most serious of crimes. It was published just weeks after Novara Media revealed that the Metropolitan police will not be investigating ten known British nationals accused of war crimes whilst fighting in Gaza.

Earlier this year, Declassified UK revealed that more than 2,000 Brits have served in the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) since October 2023.

MPs Jeremy Corbyn, Diane Abbott, Zarah Sultana and John McDonnell are also amongst the letter’s signatories, alongside campaign groups International Centre of Justice for Palestinians and CAGE International.

Responding to rightwing outrage, a spokesperson for Polanski said: “The IDF has been credibly accused of horrific war crimes in Gaza by bodies including the UN Human Rights Council, Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, and the UK government should be taking robust action against any British citizen complicit in these crimes.”

Israeli forces have killed nearly 73,000 Palestinians since October 2023, including more than 900 since a so-called ceasefire was agreed last year. Israel has violated the terms of the ceasefire on a near daily basis and now occupies around 60% of Gaza and a fifth of Lebanon.

This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it.

More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months.

And here’s the part that should make your blood boil.

Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence.

The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it.

Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price.

We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us.

🇵🇸 Hamas calls on UN to blacklist Israel over violations against Palestinian children

Marking the International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression, Hamas called on the United Nations to add Israel to its blacklist of parties responsible for grave violations against children, pointing to its killing, wounding, displacing, and depriving Palestinian children of their basic rights.

The movement said more than 21,000 children have been killed during nearly two years of war in Gaza, including about 5,000 under the age of five, while more than 44,000 have been wounded and an estimated 58,000 have lost one or both parents. It also claimed more than 200 children have died from hunger or exposure.

Hamas further noted that Israeli forces have killed 237 children and arrested 1,655 minors in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem since October 7, calling on international organizations to take urgent action to protect Palestinian children and provide humanitarian and psychological support.

What do a giant new marine sanctuary, the loss of climate journalism, and plug-in solar panels for apartment balconies have in common?

They all show how much the future depends on the choices we make today.

🐠 Good News: Papua New Guinea just created the largest marine protected area in its history, safeguarding a stretch of ocean nearly the size of the UK in one of the most biodiverse marine regions on Earth.

😱 Not-So-Good News: NPR's climate desk has been dismantled, and many other major news organizations are doing away with climate reporting altogether. But the climate crisis doesn't go away when we stop covering it.

😎 What You Can Do: If you rent or live in an apartment, check out "balcony solar." And if local regulations are standing in the way? Use your voice to advocate for change. That's how the system changes.

Let's talk about "unalienable rights of free expression and peaceful assembly."

In 2023 and 2024, pro-Palestinian protests were banned, dispersed, or criminalized in Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and across multiple American university campuses.

Students were arrested. Professors lost jobs. People were fired for social media posts.

In Germany, even displaying a watermelon emoji was treated as a potential criminal offense in some contexts.

This happened in the Western democracies that hold Tiananmen as a symbol of the cost of suppressing free expression.

The same governments posting Tiananmen commemorations were simultaneously deploying riot police against students holding vigils for children being killed in real time.

You can hold both of these things as wrong simultaneously.

Or you can keep posting about unalienable rights while your governments demonstrate, in the present tense, exactly which populations those rights are designed to protect.
