Starvation In Gaza: Roots of The Genocide And Pathway To Stopping It

Image
  (Photo: Al Jazeera) Israel’s forced starvation of the innocent Palestinian people of Gaza is nothing but pure Genocidal treachery, entirely U.S. enabled, U.S. weaponized, and U.S. insulated. Also complicit in weaponizing and insulating Israel’s inhuman War Crimes, are the U.K., going along with anything the U.S. does… and Germany, bowing to anything Israel does, in forever apology for it’s WWII Holocaust upon the Jews; as Israel now committing it’s own genocidal atrocities some few short generations later; in sickening irony. For over 2 months Israel has blocked all food, fuel, and medicine to Gaza, a deliberate policy of starvation, which Israeli officials outwardly and publically state, yet don’t hesitate to turn around and selectively gaslight this when needed, as a matter of “Hamas stealing the aid”, with their cynical PR propaganda they know has zero credibility and only works on their Zionist extremist base. Turn on the news any day, and you will hear the screaming cries an...

Climate Crisis And The Profit Motive

Image
We’ve done nothing to solve our climate crisis at the industrial level where it counts. There is a 99.99% scientific consensus that climate change/global warming IS happening, set to make the Earth unlivable for human beings and countless other lifeforms in the coming decades. And there's 99.99% scientific consensus that carbon emissions are THE main cause of it, ie: fossil fuel use from cars, power plants, industry, etc., exacerbated by our destruction of carbon-absorbing rainforests and oceans—the planet's natural immune system. We need hard, binding legal caps on emissions; measurable pass/fail benchmarks which must be met by polluting companies on a regular basis, made severely punishable by law. However, the true root of Climate Change is the profit motive, societies one singular goal. If it makes money, if it generates income, that’s all that matters, no matter how dumb, destructive, distracting, or undemocratic. It supersedes priorities, moralities, and our very politics...

Algorithmic Silencing to Preserve a Corrupt System

Image
New research shows Musk biased X /Twitter the day he endorsed Trump to prioritize visibility of republican content and his own page .  https://www.independent.co.uk/tech/elon-musk-trump-x-algorithm-bias-b2640976.html Our ideas are algorithmically silenced online . People are being brainwashed into right wing ideas . Media /Social Media is bought and sold buy the billionaire class — to push RW ideas into people’s face. This is because R epublican ideology is fundamentally rooted in free market liberalism , limited government interference with markets , deregulation to allow Capitalism to freely exploit for profit . . .is against advancing public education to create free /independently thinking minds . . . is against social welfare programs that benefit the majority not the 1 % . . . is rooted in Capitalist trickle down tax cuts for the wealthy . . . . rooted in denial of science and climate change so Capitalists can freely profit without interruption . . . and rooted in divisive...

Staying Engaged With Existing Systems, However Corrupt

Image
We are in the decisive decade NOW, to answer the crisis of global warming soon to make the Earth unlivable for many countless lifeforms. Say what you will about the system being rigged, but we have no choice but to engage it, to stop the machine of Capitalism, before it's too late. We don't have the luxury of cynically checking out from existing systems/institituons, not voting, and not strategically trying to build In-System power legislatively, to place hard caps on emissions as soon as possible, with the most severe punishment enforced upon polluting companies which do not meet a lawfully set benchmark.  If we target corrupting mechanisms of "money in politics", we can build that political power, to pass needed radical Sustainability legislation in this way. Doesn't mean because we engage politically that we endorse the system to continue it as is whatsoever. It's simply about understanding the levers of power, to dismantle the mechanisms OF power and the ...

We Are Not Improving

Image
Time to celebrate the mindless right wing cult that is MAGAaaa, weee... soaring on the wings of fake populism, covert/overt racism, intolerance, and fabrication of reality wherever necessary to keep their hype train goingggg. Yayy! This goes out to you, and also to all those voters lazy enough to fall for Trump's "fake populist, fix the economy, anti incumbent" bs. Trump is literally gonna make America great again you don’t even know. Their policy? Oh that would be deregulating Capitalism to create even MORE Capitalism. Gonna be great. It would also include kicking out all the criminal evil immigrants, even tho native citizens commit more crimes statistically than documented/undocumented immigrants combined, are the foundation of the labor system, and the U.S. literally being built by generations of immigrants). It would include tax cuts for the wealthy. It would be anti-abortion, outlawing pornography, and banning books, how representative of everyday people. And would a...

Anthropocene Extinction

(Watch Video: "The Tipping Points of Climate Change — and Where We Stand | Johan Rockström | TED"   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vl6VhCAeEfQ We're nearly halfway through the 2020s, dubbed the most decisive decade for action on climate change. Where exactly do things stand? Climate impact scholar Johan Rockström offers the most up-to-date scientific assessment of the state of the planet and explains what must be done to preserve Earth's resilience to human pressure.) Everything else is meaningless if the planet is uninhabitable. We have 5 years— we are halfway through the "decisive decade" to answer this existential breakdown of our planet.  The political horse races for who the next president will be don't matter, our little Movement echo chambers don't matter, we need all hands on deck, visceral grass roots action to put the brakes on Carbon NOW.  Probably time to get disruptive...  Meaning bodies on the gears of industry, mass civil disobedience...

Look Up!

Image
Just the two hottest days on Earth in over 100,000 years this week that's all, as the globe heats up and becomes unlivable.  Our sauntering collective “path to zero emissions by 2050” is nonsense and harmful. So too is simply escaping to remote communes, planting trees, growing food in our backyards, or any other matter of escapism and "personal responsibility" as any kind of complete solution to this existential threat. We can't live in a fantasy, we need to start taking environmental sustainability seriously. Society needs Industrial level change at this critical point - hard caps on emissions, with binding pass/fail laws that are enforceable and severely punishable. To do this we need to target systemic change at the political structure of human decision making itself; gutting money from politics to fundamentally delink Capitalist control over society, to be able to accrue necessary political power, in order to pass Sustainability laws as soon as possible. We have ...

Human Rights Debauch at U.S. Congress

Image
An utter human rights debauch yesterday as Netanyahu Genocidal War Criminal wanted by the International Criminal Court and by the entire world for atrocities against Palestinians and Humanity preached to U.S. congress about good and evil, a congress full of AIPAC funded U.S. politician sell outs, while Netanyahu turns around and receives 10X more funding in a disgusting, genocidal Capitalistic racket. Protests rained down hard where Netanyahu stayed at a nearby hotel, attempting to block his path to the U.S. Capitol where he would give his "speech" of absurd fabrications of reality and condemnations of American Jews and citizens. Meanwhile you have the global right wing cult protecting and siding with Israel, crying about the defacing of D.C. property, as protests erupted all over D.C., an American flag was burned and Palestinian flag raised in its place (perfectly legal btw under free speech), with pro Palestine anti-Israeli genocide messages tagged all over statues, monumen...

Gaza: A Week In Genocide

Image
Israel is invading Rafah, the last remaining city in Gaza where over 100,000 have been ordered to flee… many being displaced for the 5th/6th time now. Over 2 million in Gaza have been utterly displaced. There is no where left to go. Gaza has been wiped off the map. The border crossing from Egypt to Rafa where some fraction of critical aid/supplies were able to get through, was taken over and shut down by Israeli forces earlier this week on Sunday. 7 days later and still no aid, and no fuel has come through to power Rafah's medical systems, leaving hundreds of injured and sick people for dead. This, in addition to the already many thousands with non-combat related medical needs like heart problems, cancers, and pregnancies. (Weaponized) Famine sets in across Gaza, as innocent Palestinian civilians begin STARVING TO DEATH. There is no food, no water, no fuel, no electricity; all essential infrastructure has been destroyed; people are living on top of one another; and with rising temp...
