De PVV-coalitie kiest voor ongekend harde bezuinigingen op studenten, hogescholen en universiteiten.

€970 miljoen bezuinigingen per jaar (!)

Een zwarte dag voor studenten, het onderwijs en de wetenschap.

About the russian orthodox church. Some Americans do not understand what kind of church it is. They just know that it’s “Christian” and it triggers them. Let me explain…

NEW: Does the American Dream foster inequality?

Let’s start with a shocking stat:

These two things are simultaneously true:
• The richest Americans are the richest in the world
• Food poverty is more severe in America than in any other developed country

Neutraliteitstheater is echt zelden zo hallucinant geweest als nu. Aan de ene kant hebben we letterlijk alle mensenrechtenorganisaties, rapporten van de VN, genocide experts, gruwelijke beelden en meer dan 15.000 dode Palestijnen. Aan de andere kant: Israel zegt dat de VN stom is

In het Verenigd Koninkijk is de kindarmoede de afgelopen 7 jaar het meeste toegenomen op de lijst van ontwikkelde landen die door Unicef zijn onderzocht.
Hele pijnlijke statistiek voor de Britten.

Geert Wilders wordt gesponsord (en geeft dat niet op aan de Tweede Kamer).

De rijke extreemrechtse Amerikaan Robert J. Shillman trekt graag zijn chequeboek om democratieën te ondermijnen. Zo steunt Shillman ook de extreemrechtse terreurorganisatie Proud Boys. #PVV 🧵/1

Demonstreren tégen polarisatie en ontmenselijking: ‘Polariserend’.

Demonstreren tégen massamoord en ontmenselijking: ‘Terreurmarsen’.

Racisten naar wiens dreigende haattaal iedereen al 20 jaar luistert: ‘Bezorgde, vergeten burgers.’

Kon George Orwell dit nog maar meemaken joh.

Estimated 20000 dead, including 8000 children, though that count is low because it’s hard to find dead babies under collapsed buildings.

And for what? They did not get Hamas. No one is safer. The lives of two million people destroyed out of pure bloodlust and impunity.

Zo schaamteloos als deze week bij de @VVD zie je het niet vaak.

Een draadje met 7 overdrijvingen & onwaarheden van @DilanYesilgoz in één week tijd.

Als je al weken lang bozer wordt van een politieke leus waarin je een impliciete oproep tot genocide meent te horen dan van de daadwerkelijke massaslachting die momenteel onder onze ogen plaatsvindt, waar sta je dan in het leven?

This is fucking insane.. this is a historical monument that is older than the state that has destroyed it…

Ondertussen op de Westelijke Jordaanoever:
"Settlers and soldiers have killed 51 Palestinians in the West Bank since Saturday. At least two Palestinian villages have been entirely depopulated."

[Ben Norton @BenjaminNorton]

No, actually it's simple:

- Israel is a Western settler-colonialist project founded on the mass ethnic cleansing of indigenous Palestinians.

- US imperialism uses Israel as a military outpost in resource-rich West Asia.

- Israel has illegally occupied Palestinian land for decades and will never allow Palestinians to create a state of their own.

- Palestinians living under Israeli control are subjected to a brutal apartheid regime, as even Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch now admit.

- Another 6 million Palestinians are registered as refugees with the UN, and Israel denies them their legal right to return to their homeland.

- Palestinians have a right under international law to armed resistance against Israeli colonialism, as stated clearly in UN General Assembly resolution 35/35, among others.

- Israel's government has become increasingly far-right, racist, and eliminationist, and current members of the ruling coalition include literal fascist parties who want to commit genocide against Palestinians. That's what they are trying to do now, while hoping to once again ethnically cleanse the Palestinians who survive, forcing them out of Gaza into Egypt.

- The majority of the world, including almost all of the Global South (with a few exceptions), supports the Palestinian national-liberation struggle. Israel is supported by the United States and its proxies. But Washington uses its veto in the UN Security Council to prevent any international action against Israel's constant crimes against humanity.

No outside journalists can get into Gaza. The journalists already there are getting killed. Biden says don’t trust casualty #s from the Palestinians and Blinken asks Qatar to “tone down” Jazeera coverage. We’re on the brink of an information blackout.

[Ione Belarra @ionebelarra]

We need exemplary economic sanctions on Netanyahu and all those responsible for the genocide of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip. We also need an immediate arms embargo. Europe can and must act with autonomy and seek peace.
