Reflections and ruminations.

The tech bros who told everyone to quit their jobs and learn to code in 2021 are very quiet right now.
Interesting.

Anyone in #Bangladesh (in their bachelor studies or a graduate) wants to do some transcription or translation work for a medical research project? Standard pays and clauses applicable. DM if interested or RT 😅

We're at the stage of the first livestreamed genocide in human history where we're witnessing human corpses being feasted upon by starving dogs and cats.

We've reached the levels of pure evil from which there is no going back!

Silence was compliance.

Welcome to the machine that we have been trying to compete and fight for so long. Now it's coming back to a circle.. but good points though.

[Chrisman @chrisman]

Not being cute, this is the darkest vision for America I’ve ever read. No sleepovers, no saturday morning cartoons. No joy. Nothing to look forward to but endless grinding competition. Life itself sacrificed. In its place, “success.”

Here are some of my thoughts on the present situation in #Bangladesh

Thanks @nandi_naira

@nomhossain There were simply too many people.

Fascism is rising all over the western world because neoliberalism is an empty ideology that offers no meaningful alternative.

@ValerieGoldst17 @Resist_05 All the SS officers were following the orders too- perfectly in compliance with their laws. https://t.co/0YGiEqwXqo

The whole Western civilization didn't progress an inch if they allow their governments to perpetuate something like this in their own land. Any teacher on this earth deserves more respect than this.

@MiddleEastEye Here’s @EmoryUniversity economics professor Caroline Fohlin knocked to the ground with her head on the concrete. Her glasses are thrown off. She shouts “I’m a professor”

Israel buried Palestinians ALIVE. This means they screamed and writhed under the ground as they inhaled dirt. Fuck Israel and fuck western civilization

[Sh @shafi_isl]

Also, notice how the shared identity of Muslimness (in the middle-east) means almost nothing for the oppressed people of Palestine in terms of their genuine efforts to solve the problem because the shared identity means nothing rather than the political & economic conditions.

[Sh @shafi_isl]

Identification of identities with concrete condition, history etc. really created a dangerous situation for the world.

The struggle is between different axes of powers, and not between identities.

Identities are not anything concrete and they change (fictional at times).

[Sh @shafi_isl]

I have in my mind the case of India and the country in the middle east as examples of engineering the social and national identities for holding onto power.

[Sh @shafi_isl]

@nomhossain Saw something like this just outside BIGD's office. Apparently, some of the men of the community (landlords and their associates), the principal backers, were worried about their daughters emulating too liberal practices of students around that place.

[Sh @shafi_isl]

So, I am not the only one.

[Kristen Mulrooney @missmulrooney]

My service to the world is that if I’m in the audience of a presentation and the person speaking makes eye contact with me, I am going to nod encouragingly.

[Sh @shafi_isl]

Why this issue persists? I think it is to deter more people from claiming health care and making it an unattractive choice.

[Pallav Singh @pallavserene]

My father will die, soon or very soon.

Yes, I know what I am saying.

I am writing this while standing in a queue at AIIMS Delhi

Please read🙏.

Future generations will censure us for letting this happen. The death count has surpassed 10 thousand, mostly children and women. There is not even enough water to wash the wounds of survivors, let alone food, drugs etc. How can anyone sleep at night?

@ARoseCasey Something in Bengali.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

The 100 biggest low-wage employers have spent $341 billion on stock buybacks for their corporate shareholders since 2020, while their median annual worker pay was just $31, 672 last year.

We don’t suffer from scarcity. We suffer from greed.
