@ctizzie Fascism normalisation scheme is making people look for fascism's rise while living comfortably with many of the relations that sustain its reproduction. If they keep looking up at the sky for Fascism, they can evade looking at how they're occupying a colonial rule incubating it.
The language of ascent is politically
convenient. If fascism is always rising, then colonialism, the structural reproductive rule of fascism can always remain. If the far right is always rising, then domination can always be treated as an exception rather than the constant rule.
🔴Breaking Judge Johnson has ruled that the Filton 4 will be sentenced as terrorists despite only being convicted by a jury of criminal charges!
“Never before has a link to terrorism been imposed at the sentencing stage in a criminal damage case,”

RIP David Hockney (1937–2026), one of the great colorists of the last century.
Yorkshire, Los Angeles, family, architecture, water, light. Different palettes, different subjects, unmistakably Hockney.
A selection of recurring accent colors drawn from across his work.
Albanian protester mocks the notion Ivanka Trump "discovered" their only island, telling PBS News Hour, "We have only one island!"
"I'm a tour guide, I go into that island like 60 times per year!"
I think it’s fucking insane that no one making our laws sees any potential problems with a single citizen possessing more wealth than 176 of 195 countries
Londoners are rightfully concerned that an event promoting land confiscation & destruction of homes is due to take place - so I put this question directly to the Mayor today.
I welcome his strong condemnation. But condemnation is not enough, this event must be cancelled.
This is extra funny when you notice that this person accidentally reveals that unlike her genocide-participating family members whom she so admires, she (likely chose not to) participate in the zionist military herself because she came to the US at 15, before the cutoff period.
Actually this 2018 data is very interesting and revealing about the culture of the zionist military. Take a look at the number of investigations opened versus the number of complaints for claims of rape and indecent assault/sexual harassment.
When Obama bombed Libya, the justification was "humanitarian intervention." "Protection of civilians." "Responsibility to protect." The language of international law and moral obligation.
Libya was subsequently destroyed. It has open slave markets today. The humanitarian outcome was catastrophic.
But the language was immaculate. The syntax was perfect. The suits were pressed and the speeches were moving and the Nobel Peace Prize sat on the shelf while the drones flew.
Trump bombs things and says it's about the oil.
In terms of honesty, pure, raw, unmediated honesty about what American power actually does, Trump is more accurate than any of his predecessors.
This is not a defense of Trump.
This is an indictment of everyone who made the polished version seem acceptable.
The lie was always more dangerous than the liar currently in office.
Because the lie had good manners.
This is what Elon Musk doesn't want you to see on this platform. This’s what your media won’t report.
Lebanon is being ethnically cleansed in real time.
There's a girl from Belfast who, along with her friend, is offering assistance to minority residents who are afraid to leave their homes to go to the shops or work because of the riots.
Bless them.
