Mexican environmental influencer Alex Serna has been found dead nearly two weeks after he disappeared, months after he said he received threats over his reporting

Serna disappeared the same day he posted a video accusing a company of environmental violations

Every China story is like: this capitalist hellhole created the elixir of life and demands people's souls in exchange for it.

But then China ruined that market by making the elixir for $5.

Man, it’s like nobody is willing to learn the lesson.

Time and time again, we watch self-labeled “advocates of justice” compromise their supposed values for some abstract “greater good,” only to reach the end of the road with no greater good and no values left intact.

Now it looks like Graham Platner is going to drop out, and every leftist who ignored their own principles to further the campaign of a Blackwater mercenary, someone who joined the machinery of empire to invade and kill brown people, is going to be left standing there morally naked, with nothing to show for it except a public record of the line they were willing to cross.

My heart goes out to all the “communists” on this website who almost got what they wanted, a complete normalization of brutalizing and murdering brown men and women but *on the left*. Worry not, any day now the CIA will serve you up another pig faced serial killer, another mediocre loser who’s never been good at anything other than pointing million dollar weapons at children and farmers, a waste of breath and flesh just like you in a plastic keffiyah reading off a script, for you to elect and worship.

As for Graham? If it makes any of you feel any better, he will not spend a single day in prison for his countless crimes but will instead continue to collect 5k a month in fake VA disability benefits for PTSD he clearly doesn’t have, eventually pivoting to being a Fox News correspondent.

This is like witnessing the horrors of the Nazi gas chambers unfold in real time, broadcast for the entire world to see and witness the Zionist remake of the Holocaust against the Palestinians.

[Chetuya Chinagolum @Chetuyachinago]

This is like a massive, stinging slap in the face of every self-righteous proponent of the free-market economy who works tirelessly to brainwash the entire planet into believing that limited government intervention is inherently good, that state regulation is evil, and that prices will always magically find their true, natural value.

If the state does not decisively intervene to stop corrupt oligarchs, private equity firms, and global investment giants from buying up every single affordable residential home, real estate prices will never find a value that respects basic human dignity, local communities, or the working class. Instead, they will only ever find a highly inflated, artificial value that strictly protects the greedy corporate interests, profit margins, and portfolios of multi-billion-dollar venture capitalists.

Socialism works and will always work. Even the most ruthless capitalists on Wall Street still desperately lobby for massive government tax cuts, multi-billion-dollar state bailouts, favorable regulatory loopholes, protectionist trade tariffs, and direct central bank interventions, which is basically nothing but a highly customized, tax-funded communist manifesto designed exclusively for the rich, the powerful, and the politically connected.

The cause of the blackout in Cuba isn't "unknown."

It's a 60+ year blockade imposed by the United States.

Thinking about how what brought Graham Platner down was not his behavior as he served in active war zones as a foot soldier for U.S. empire, but rather what horrible things he did when he came home. Hoping that his victims domestic and abroad get some solace from this regardless.

[☀️👀 @zei_squirrel]

can someone who supported Graham Platner, like Hasan, explain why him mass murdering and raping Iraqis and Afghans as a volunteer rape-soldier and Blackwater mercenary was totally fine and forgivable and we have to now accept him as a Good Person because that's the really "leftist" and moral thing to do, but him raping an American woman is beyond the pale and he has to drop out we can't ever accept this?

What standard are you using to evaluate politics aside from "the US media and political class doesn't give a shit about him mass murdering and raping brown people abroad so we also shouldn't care and just forgive him because having basic principles doesn't matter, but OMG HE RAPED A WHITE AMERICAN WOMAN?!?! NO THATS HEADLINE NEWS HE HAS TO DROP OUT NOW EVEN IF HE ACKNOWLEDGES IT AND BEGS FORGIVENESS A MILLION TIMES".

That is the standard isn't it. And that is why everyone outside your depraved clique despises you, because you will defend anything as long as you think it advances your cunt pseudo-radical soc dem treatlerite politics.

DRUGGED. STRIPPED and she says RAPED in a police cell. By the very officers meant to protect her.

The doctors found her symptoms matched a date-rape drug. She was locked in that cell. So who gave it to her.

The CCTV that could prove it? Four and a half hours, VANISHED. In the hands of the force she's accusing.

Three and a half years on. Not one officer charged. No justice and it all happened in Andy Burnham's Manchester. His police. His watch. The man who says he should be your next PRIME MINISTER.

Can't fix one cell in his own city. Wants to run the whole country. This is Zayna Iman and this is hard to watch.

First, what she took, and what she didn't, because someone always tries that first.

That evening she'd taken cocaine. A friend rang 999, worried. The police came to her home. That's all she did. At the door she knocked the glasses off a female officer's face, was arrested for it, and taken to a cell.

Here's what matters. Cocaine doesn't do what happened to her next. The doctors were clear. Her symptoms matched a date-rape drug. GHB, or something like it. A completely different substance.

She didn't walk in with that in her. She was behind a locked cell door. She couldn't have taken it herself. Someone inside that station gave it to her.

Then the police said she'd had a psychotic episode. Except her medical records show no history of mental illness. The doctors said her belief she'd been drugged and raped was NOT delusional. It fit exactly what she described.

A former Greater Manchester Police chief superintendent has said, out loud, that he believes her.

She isn't the only one. Since she spoke, more than a dozen other women have come forward about this same force.

Then there's the footage. On camera, you see her carried in and strip-searched. Then, for the hours that matter most, the screen goes black.

The story kept changing. It existed. It was corrupted. It can't be recovered. She says four and a half hours are gone. They admit two. Either way, the proof vanished in the hands of the accused.

And Burnham? She contacted him in 2021, two months after she got out. Silence, she says, until 2023, when she waived her anonymity and public outcry forced his hand.

Only then did he move. An inquiry into how police treat women in custody. Except the woman at the centre of it says nobody from that inquiry properly spoke to her. Stonewalled. Gaslit. Her words.

Nobody's been charged. The investigation still crawls on. Say that plainly.

But strip it back. A woman took cocaine and needed help. She ended up drugged with something else entirely, in a cell, in the care of the state and the cameras went dark exactly when it mattered.

If it can happen to her, and the proof can just disappear, it can happen to anyone the police put in a cell. Your daughter. Your sister. You.

Three and a half years. Still no answers. And the man who moved only when the country was watching wants the keys to the whole country.

Ask yourself what he does when nobody's filming.

Spending trillions to build out AI data centers proves that the American ruling class had the resources and ability to convert the grid to renewables and maybe save the planet but instead deliberately chose to cook us all and die for no reason but to produce demonic digital slop.
