The price of a colonial war is not only in the dead; it is in projects of human health and thriving we cannot address in the wake of its crisis "Chief scientist voices fears about H5N1 variant that has ‘extraordinarily high’ mortality rate in humans" theguardian.com/world/2024/apr…
A nation cannot commit a genocide under a system of colonial occupation and not, also, turn their own country into a police state.

I was this years old when I learned it is common practice in many states in the U.S. to charge inmates - sometimes tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars - for the cost of their incarceration. This is ofc debt peonage, a system of semi-slavery. rutgers.edu/news/states-un…

I met a teacher in their 30s who has arranged with their school to have a lesson off before lunch every day so they can have a sleep. They teach sitting down. And they have had Covid at least four times. They have had no vaccinations.

I hear the words of a Yiddish protest anthem more than 125 years old echoing around my head right now Siblings, let us join hands! Let us break the walls of the Tsar! Hey hey down with the police! Down with the ruling class!
Eric Adams is using his violent police force to terrorize peaceful protesters. Joe Biden is funding and supporting Israel's genocide of Palestinians. They are both Democrats. The war machine has two parties; the working class has none.
This is not a drill. He’s pledging it loudly and proudly. If you’re still voting for Trump after all of this, be clear: you’re voting for fascism and the end of American democracy as we know it. That’s not hyperbole - that’s simply paying attention to his own promises and plans:
"How Far Trump Would Go." @EricCortellessa scores two interviews with Donald Trump for @TIME, asking him to explain what he'd do in a second term. Read here: time.com/6972021/donald… A synopsis:
How about we do a Purge once a year. But instead of going on the rampage, *everyone* stays home for three weeks.
Maybe one of the most important graphs of the pandemic. Human behavior in Spring of 2020 crushed the spread of common pathogens. The idea that nothing can be done about endemic viruses doesn’t hold water. We should remember that with human to human transmission of H5N1 looming.
protestors chanting "forty five thousand dead, you're arresting kids instead", that says most of it x.com/dailyjulianne/…
They don't have a radio station, but the City College magazine is live streaming right now on IG. They were just told they're going to be arrested if they don't leave but there are so few on the ground documenting. Please don't forget them. instagram.com/ccnycampus
understand me: NYPD is about to attack these students and not just punish them on behalf of the university, but they are about to take out ALL of their anger against the left and progressive causes against these kids. Everything you care about is going to hurt them

WKCR reporters debunking, in real-time, CNN's live stenography of university admin claims that Hamilton/Hinds Hall was occupied by "outside agitators" or "non-Columbia" people, confirming that Columbia students were within the building.
And here you can see officers entering an academic building with their weapons drawn, in response to college students protesting their tax & tuition dollars contributing to a plausible genocide
I would like to repeat that I gave a workshop to about a dozen families with kids 10 and under, like three hours ago. CCNY encampment was absurdly safe. Then police barricaded everyone inside and pepper sprayed them
Kids’ workshop at the CCNY Gaza Solidarity Encampment today ❣️
For years on this app, I've seen people claim that everyone who participated in antiwar activism in the 60s became Reagan voters in the 80s. It's a completely baseless narrative and likely untrue. I would be willing to guess that the Venn Diagram is 2 distinct circles.
It stems from people mistaking size for impact. The protests were impactful, but only about 2 million Americans participated in antiwar activism. Meanwhile, 40 million Americans voted *against* Reagan in both elections. A much bigger number, but ultimately much less impactful.
