Die Woche fing doch ganz normal an – und nun das: der israelische Ministerpräsident Netanyahu fährt nach Washington und schlägt Präsident Trump für den Friedensnobelpreis vor. Ein vom Internationalen Gerichtshof (IGH) gesuchter Kriegsverbrecher schlägt einen anderen – der, nach einem Gutachten des wissenschaftlichen Dienstes des Bundestages, einen völkerrechtswidrigen Angriff gegen den Iran geflogen hat – für den Friedensnobelpreis vor.
Nebenbei terrorisiert und tötet der eine von Beiden die Bewohner der Westbank und des Gazastreifen, während der andere hart arbeitende Menschen aus ihren Häusern oder direkt bei der Arbeit bei Walmart, im Straßenbau oder von den Feldern holen lässt, um sie in menschenunwürdige Gefängniss in Mittelamerika einsperren zu lassen.
Alles was uns dazu einfällt ist die Erinnerung an das Buch 1984 von George Orwell und die bittere Wahrheit "Big Brother is watching you". Das Wahrheitsministerium schreibt mit der neu entwickelten Sprache Neusprech die Geschichte. Und sie schreibt sie tagtäglich um, je nachdem Den Ereignissen den aktuellen Ereignissen.
Wir können diesen Zynismus der beiden Egomanen nur mit einem weiteren Vorschlag auf die Spitze treiben. Schließlich hat ja auch der US Präsident Obama den Friedensnobelpreis bekommen, obwohl er durch seine Unterschrift unter die tagtäglichen Drohnentötungen auch – je nach Zählung – 5-7 Menschen pro Tag in seiner Amtszeit auf dem Gewissen hat.
Soll der nächsten Nobelpreis doch an die Präsidentin der EU Kommission Ursula von der Leyen gehen, die bereits konkrete Kriegspläne mit einem festen Datum äußert: "Der vollumfängliche Krieg wird 20230 neue Realität" und dazu wird Europa - sie meint natürlich nur die EU - in den nächsten vier Jahren 650 Milliarden Euro an "Verteidigungsinvestitionen" mobilisieren - und mit diesem "Sondervermögen" meint sie natürlich nur Schulden für uns, unsere Kinder und Enkel. Neusprech lässt grüßen.

"La classe moyenne voit son pouvoir d’achat stagner, ses enfants s’exiler, ses repères vaciller"
Par La Fonderie du Réel
« La Fonderie du Réel », collectif de dirigeants, de hauts fonctionnaires et de professionnels venus du terrain, dénonce dans cette tribune le mépris croissant envers la classe moyenne, symbole d’une méritocratie et d’une justice sociale en déclin. Dans une France frappée par la désindustrialisation, la promesse, longuement bâtie depuis 1789, d’une démocratie à la fois politique et économique, semble trahie. Ils appellent à une revitalisation de la classe moyenne.
Ils n’ont pas compris. La classe moyenne est en train de décrocher, et l’élite regarde ailleurs. Pourtant, depuis quarante ans, nous avons laissé se fissurer ce qui faisait le socle de notre pacte républicain : une promesse d’égalité des chances, la stabilité d’un État protecteur, la reconnaissance du travail comme vecteur d’émancipation. Cette promesse, c’était celle d’une démocratie politique et économique, patiemment construite depuis 1789. Aujourd’hui, elle est trahie. Le déclassement ne frappe pas uniquement les plus précaires : il ronge les familles qui font tourner le pays. Employés, fonctionnaires, petits entrepreneurs, professions intermédiaires… Tous ceux que l’on appelle par facilité la « classe moyenne » voient leur pouvoir d’achat stagner, leurs enfants s’exiler, leurs repères vaciller.
Le mépris des élites ou le sacrifice de la classe moyenne/
Et face à cela ? Le silence ou pire : le mépris. Comme si cette souffrance n’avait pas droit de cité dans le débat public. Une enquête nationale menée sur les Cahiers de doléances du Grand débat (2018-2019), récemment analysée par le CNRS, révèle pourtant une parole puissante, structurée, lucide : les citoyens ne réclament pas des aides, mais de la considération ; pas des promesses, mais de l’équité ; pas des slogans, mais des actes.
Ils dénoncent l’effondrement des services publics, l’abandon des territoires, l’injustice fiscale. Ils formulent des propositions concrètes, réclament une meilleure répartition des ressources, une démocratie plus proche, une école plus juste. Cette parole est ignorée. Les témoignages que nous avons recueillis dans plusieurs régions françaises disent la même chose : une vie qui se tend, des métiers qui ne permettent plus de se loger, de se soigner, des enfants qui partent, un sentiment d’inutilité sociale. L’angoisse de tomber, même en travaillant. « On n’est pas pauvres, mais on n’a plus de marge », résume Sabine, cadre dans le secteur public, mère de deux enfants. « Moi je vois ma vie comme une stagnation », confie Dominique, enseignante dans une ville moyenne. La peur n’est plus celle du chômage, mais celle du déclassement, mais aussi de l’invisibilité. Car il ne s’agit pas seulement d’une crise matérielle.
Comme le montre Pierre Rosanvallon dans Les Épreuves de la vie : Comprendre autrement les Français (Seuil), il s’agit d’un manque de respect. Ce que demandent les classes moyennes, c’est d’être vues, entendues, considérées. De ne pas être réduites à des statistiques ou à une « variable d’ajustement » électorale. Or, tout dans le système actuel – de la technostructure parisienne aux grandes métropoles – les tient à l’écart. Christopher Lasch dans La révolte des élites : et la trahison de la démocratie (Flammarion), avait prévenu : une société où les dirigeants vivent en vase clos, sans plus de lien avec la majorité, finit par se disloquer. Nous y sommes. Les élites, dont tous ceux qui écrivent ou lisent ces lignes font partie, n’ont pas trahi par cynisme, mais par paresse : fortes de leur réussite individuelle, elles ont abandonné leur responsabilité collective. Elles pensent que leur réussite personnelle est justifiée par leur mérite propre et que si les autres ne réussissent pas, c’est qu’ils ne le méritent pas.
La France, l’un des pays développés où le travail paie le moins
Elles ont pensé que l’ascenseur social continuerait de monter tout seul. Qu’il suffisait d’invoquer la start-up nation pour apaiser les angoisses d’un peuple désorienté. Pire encore : elles ont cessé de croire au rôle de l’État comme acteur de justice et d’égalité. Elles ont abandonné les politiques industrielles, laissées en jachère l’éducation et la santé, fait de la décentralisation le seul axe de l’aménagement du territoire. Résultat : une perte de souveraineté économique, une fuite des compétences, une dégradation du système de soin, une explosion des fractures territoriales. Les usines partent ailleurs, les hôpitaux ferment, les jeunes s’exilent, les infrastructures se dégradent, et l’on s’étonne de la colère.
De plus, et comme l’a récemment souligné Antoine Foucher dans Sortir du travail qui ne paie plus : Compromis pour une société du travail au XIIe siècle (Éditions de l’Aube), la France est devenue l’un des pays développés où le travail paie le moins – surtout pour les classes moyennes. Non pas parce que les salaires seraient anormalement bas, mais parce que l’addition des prélèvements sociaux, des seuils fiscaux et de la dégressivité des aides finit par neutraliser tout gain réel d’effort. Pour ces familles qui ne bénéficient ni des dispositifs sociaux les plus généreux ni des revenus les plus élevés, chaque promotion, chaque heure supplémentaire ou chaque prise de risque professionnel peut se traduire par une perte nette. Il n’est pas rare qu’un couple avec enfants, gagnant entre 2 500 et 4 000 euros par mois, voie ses prestations baisser plus vite que ses revenus n’augmentent.
La classe moyenne travaille, paie, mais ne progresse plus. Elle s’épuise dans un système qui lui fait payer pour les autres sans jamais lui tendre la main. L’ascenseur social grince, l’effort n’est plus récompensé, et le contrat implicite sur lequel repose la démocratie sociale – celui qui dit que le travail assure un avenir meilleur – est en train de se rompre.
Rebâtir une classe moyenne solide
Alors que faire ? Il est temps de reconstruire un projet collectif, de réaffirmer le rôle et l’autorité de l’État là, et uniquement là, où ils font sens et de relancer une vraie mobilité sociale. Il s’agit de rebâtir une classe moyenne solide en redonnant de la marge de manœuvre à ceux qui travaillent dur, mais n’arrivent plus à vivre décemment de leur salaire. Bien sûr, si l’on veut redonner confiance aux classes moyennes et redresser le pays, il faut aller au-delà des incantations sociales et proposer un véritable cap productif. Ce cap passe par une stratégie résolue de réindustrialisation, d’efficacité dans l’éducation et la santé, de réinvestissement des territoires, adossée à la révolution technologique en cours. La croissance ne renaîtra pas du passé.
Il faut investir dans le capital humain et la technologie pour créer les conditions de la croissance de demain. La digitalisation, l’intelligence artificielle, la robotique ou l’ingénierie quantique ne sont pas des lubies d’ingénieurs : elles seront au cœur de la création de valeur, des gains de productivité et de la souveraineté économique. Il faut une alliance entre innovation, production, services publics et enracinement local. Cela suppose d’investir massivement dans les secteurs stratégiques : énergies décarbonées, semi-conducteurs, biotechnologies, technologies industrielles avancées, mais aussi dans les infrastructures numériques nécessaires à l’émergence de champions technologiques locaux. C’est ce cap que la France et l’Europe doivent assumer pour sortir de la stagnation et redonner de l’élan à la démocratie sociale.
L’Europe doit construire son propre modèle productif, durable et compétitif. L’industrie de demain ne sera pas concentrée dans des zones denses, mais distribuée, flexible, ancrée localement. Elle doit s’appuyer sur des bassins de vie, des compétences existantes, des lycées professionnels, des plateformes technologiques régionales. C’est aussi en investissant dans les écosystèmes territoriaux que l’on redonnera de l’emploi, du sens, et de la fierté aux populations aujourd’hui déclassées.
Ce n’est pas le passé qu’il faut restaurer, mais la promesse républicaine qu’il faut tenir. Celle d’un pays où chacun, quel que soit son lieu de naissance ou sa profession, peut espérer un avenir meilleur. Le pacte n’est pas rompu, mais il est fragile. Il est temps de le réparer. Nous sommes comme les gens que décrit Christopher Clarck dans Les somnambules : Été 1914 : comment l'Europe a marché vers la guerre (Flammarion) : des somnambules. Il faut faire vite.
Full moon again already? I could have sworn it was full just a week or two ago.
“Yo, Master John! What up?” Rex walked into the room. At least he wasn’t naked this time.
“Hi Rex. All good?”
“All good, dude. What should we do tonight? Play cards? Go clubbing? Or drink at home? No wait, wait, I know - let’s eat chocolate!”
“No rush, Rex. It’s early.”
“Hey, I only get one a month. But if you’re busy...” He looked at his hands.
“No, no. I’ve got chocolate chip cookies. And gin. And tonic.” If I didn’t keep him busy, he’d probably masturbate, and he didn’t even care if I was in the room.
I got out drinks and snacks. I thought I’d better find a pack of cards, too. Maybe teach him video gaming?
When I adopted Rex, I didn’t know he was a werehuman. He’s a good dog most of the time, so I guess he deserves his one night a month of human fun.
Frau #VonderLeyen annonce (ici en Französisch) la création d’un bunker panoptique assurant la #surveillance de l’ #information pour lutter contre les "manipulations", les "ingérences étrangères", et l’application de "sanctions". ACHTUNG! Il n’y a qu’UNE seule et UNIQUE information diffusée par Big Sister et Big Brother, et ce bunker y veillera partout où une liberté de pensée et d’opinion ose s’exercer, notamment dans les #médias alternatifs et sur les horribles réseaux sociaux. Si #UVdL n’est pas une petite-fille de nazi (ce serait une fake new) en matière de #censure et de "paquets de #sanctions", elle ne laisse pas sa part à l’infâme #Mertz. Pas seulement contre la #Russie envers laquelle elle a une haine totale (la raclée infligée par l’Armée Rouge à Hitler reste en travers de la gorge de certains Allemands), mais aussi contre tous les citoyens européens qu’elle compte bien mener à la badine cloutée. Et vu les claques qu’elle ramasse sur X à chacune de ses apparitions, elle veillera à ce que la Gedankenpolizei soit particulièrement inflexible sur le réseau social de ce libertaire de Musk.
what's happening to #FrancescaAlbanese reminds me of the tactics used by the US government against #JA: demonization,marginalization by the media, and then a head-on attack(sanctions against #FrancescaAlbanese,charges under the Espionage Act against #JA)
The sanctioning by the Trump administration of Francesca Albanese, the United Nations Special Rapporteur, is an ominous harbinger of the end of the rule of international law.
The State Department's decision to impose sanctions on Francesca Albanese, the U.N. special rapporteur for the West Bank and Gaza, follows an unsuccessful campaign to force her removal.
One critic said Secretary of State Marco Rubio's "crude effort" to sanction Francesca Albanese "only serves to establish that the U.S. is an international outlaw."
Agreed, Vile, but if Mossad had video of you in compromising situations with young children on Epstein Island, you would sanction them too. Not saying this is the case, but I just can't think of any other viable explanation for such unethical horrible behaviors.

Christian Shepherd makes a big effort to present the membership as something unintentional but on the same time his results are (for western establishment) discouraging. They join an organisation that is non-existed in the West since the declaration of your governments is all against all. TWP promotes that system and now looks the chinese system to succeed in the competition and finds itself unable to explain the american failure and collapse.

Reminds me of the attacks against Justice Richard Goldstone, and his report into the Zionist atrocities in Gaza 2009. He was vilified and the report was pulled. No action was taken against the zionist, for their war crimes and genocide. file:///home/patrick/Downloads/A_HRC_12_48-EN.pdf
According to the 14th Amendment, Section 1 of the Constitution of the United States:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
We believe that this is a wise and proper law, foundational for a truly fair and democratic nation. We agree that it should be the duty of every law maker and every law enforcer in the land to abide by this amendment and this section without exception.
This law has also been assumed to protect the right of return by US citizens. When a US citizen leaves the US, they have a right to freely re-enter their country, and can expect due process of law if there is any question about the circumstances of their return.
In Kent v. Dulles, 357 U.S. 116 (1958), a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court on the right to travel, Justice William O. Douglas, held that the federal government may not restrict the right to travel without due process:
"The right to travel is a part of the 'liberty' of which the citizen cannot be deprived without due process of law under the Fifth Amendment. If that 'liberty' is to be regulated, it must be pursuant to the law-making functions of the Congress. ... Freedom of movement across frontiers in either direction, and inside frontiers as well, was a part of our heritage. Travel abroad, like travel within the country, ... may be as close to the heart of the individual as the choice of what he eats, or wears, or reads. Freedom of movement is basic in our scheme of values."
Under current federal actions, we believe that our travel rights need to be made explicit. We have a right to travel from and return to the US, just as surely as we have a right to freedom of speech. We should not feel in danger simply for returning to our country. We should clearly have the right NOT to be locked out or locked up by our country upon re-entry without a fair hearing.
~We have family, who we love, that we have a right to visit and even cohabit with when they are in other countries. This right strengthens good international relations. ~We wish to enrich our understanding of the world, and bring those insights back to our country. ~We hold strong feelings for a beautiful country of ocean shores, rivers, forest, mountains, and plains. These places are part of what has made us who we are. These are why we call the US our homeland. ~And we most assuredly want to rejoin family and friends at home, and thereby are present to comfort and support them. ~We also demand the right to be part of the great good that we as US citizens, regardless of our differences, can offer ourselves and the world when we act as one community of generosity and kindness.
Over 8 million US citizens live abroad. This is of significant concern to our expatriates.
(World Population Review: American Expats by Country 2025)
That's why I created a petition to Senator Alex Paddilla, which says:
We propose the creation of a federal law that explicitly protects citizens rights:
Every US citizen has the right to freedom of movement across state borders within the US. Every US citizen has the right to leave from and return to the US. Any question concerning a US citizen's movements must be addressed through due process.

Cette locution adverbiale s'est imposée comme un élément récurrent du français oral contemporain. Peut-on voir dans cette prolifération un simple effet de mode, ou faut-il y lire le reflet d'une société heurtée, en quête de cohérence dans un monde désordonné?

This morning onboard the Rainbow Warrior III, we commemorated the 40th anniversary of the sinking of the Rainbow Warrior I and the death of our colleague and friend, photographer Fernando Pereira. Together with Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei, we held a dawn ceremony to reflect on that moment, and to acknowledge the importance of the fight for a nuclear-free Pacific, which continues to this day. #nzpol
@Greenpeace Aotearoa Rainbow Warrior now that sounds like a concept. Inbetween butt-fucking an occasional sword fight or what? And you can't sink it? I bet Israel can and probably will.
Well, I suppose you can just say anyone waging war is a terrorist including leaders of countries. I wouldn't disagree with doing that except that it removes any distinction the term might have that would make it useful.

@Jarasy The worst case of targetting civilians was Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Japan had completely run out of fuel so could no longer defend itself in any way. You are constantly told that the bombs were needed to end the war but Russia had already started to take over Japan from the north and Japan had made it clear that they wished to surrender to the US rather than Russia but the sticking point was that they wished to retain their Emporer. The US chose two non military target because they wanted to have good examples of before and after photos whereas all the military targets were already destroyed and cities like Tokyo were already flattened. So two civilian targets (I do accept there were storage camps etc. but do not accept that they were significant military targets) were chosen for the worst two attrocities ever. Japan was then allowed to surrender and keep their Emporer. Dresden was similar in that it was also an experiment rather than an act of war but with incendaries. The ring of fire took the oxygen out of the center of the city. The city was fully working again in a couple of days but the entire population had been suffocated. Personally I do not see such acts as somehow better than Hamas or Mandella etc..
@Trocatintas Are you saying that you believe that makes it OK to become a violent oppressive terrorist? Mandella was blowing up the railway stations, working people going to work. Please explain how that is fighting the oppressive regime you speak of. Apartheid? The only member of Mandella's cell that was executed was the white guy. Given the problems in the UK with illegal immigration they will need Apartheid in the UK soon as well as most of Europe. If you listen to the speeches of Hamas you cannot tell them apart from the IDF, there is no difference. How people view the problem is normally down to which propaganda they listen to. If the power was given to Hamas the exact same situation would continue just the other war around as has happened in South Africa.
So, if I were a psychotic murderer and loved killing people all I have to do is move to a country like Israel and I can portray myself as a great guy? I can see huge holes in your logic. When, historically, were there no apartheid regimes and therefore when was the original apartheid regime that all blame derives from? From my perspective you are solely responsible for your wrong doing and you cannot blame your crime on someone else. If you murder, you murdered. Do you see the apartheid regime that preceded South Africa as responsible for South Africa's apartheid crimes? How can such crimes ever end if there is no responsibility. It does seem that you are simply being racist and wish to blame the white man yet not excuse the white man for the crimes committed against him. The only way to remain civilised is to retain ownership of ones own crimes. Nelson Mandella was an evil murderer. Most of his victims were black and had not oppressed him so he was an apartheid oppressor. Hamas do not murder those that oppressed them, they murdered many innocent women and children in exactly the same way that the IDF do. They are all exactly the same. If I were a kind person (I am not) I would say that you seem to be confused about the difference between guilt and mitigation. Nelson Mandella was guilty of terrorism but in his defence he claimed he was oppressed by Apartheid. The court heard that but as he spent most of his time abroad and travelled more than worked in SA they did not see that as true. He was arrested on his return to SA.
Nelson Mandella was an evil murderer. Most of his victims were black and had not oppressed him so he was an apartheid oppressor. Hamas do not murder those that oppressed them, they murdered many innocent women and children in exactly the same way that the IDF do.
@Trocatintas There is no such thing as "my truth" or "your truth". You seem confused again but this time between truth and opinion. The problem here is that the fact that Nelson Mandella was blowing up random people or that his wife necklaced children are facts that logically result in them being evil murderers. That he blew up railway stations where the poorer people went to work supports that. To conflate Nelson Mandella, Hamas, IDF - I would accept as opinion and you could counter that opinion but you failed to do so. You just seemed to make yet another erroneous statement in an attempt to defend some opinion without actually saying anything. You do not seem to have an opinion, you just seem to say I am wrong without being able to justify that. To say "That’s how Israel started… Nakba" is a completely empty statement. What do you mean by that and how do you believe that statement response to the debate?
@Jamie Yes. All of what you say about Hiroshima and Nagasaki is a story I repeat often to others. Part of using the A-bombs was to signal the Russians that we had them ready for practical use and were insane enough to do so.
Contrary to the public story about what ended the war, the bombs made no difference to Japan at that point. One of their generals famously said it made no difference if it was one bomb or a thousand bombs.
MacArthur and the US were insisting on unconditional surrender without giving in on that small point of saving the emporer. I had also thought that the US had finally agreed about the emporer but after reading more I believe that it was an unpublicized back door agreement so the US could claim it was unconditional while Japan got to save the emporer. I read that the actual process of returning him to his position was quietly handled by MacArthur himself some months later and billed as a spontaneous act of kindness.
I saw the links but one was opinion and the other Wikipedia. An opinion on Winnie's comment that ignored that the ANC as a whole enacted necklacing or that Nelson did not renounce her. Winnie Mandella did not actually touch 14 year old Stompie Moeketsi but she was in charge of the men there. It was even worse that the court only gave her 6 years of which she only served 2. If a white person had done that they would have been hung but that is apartheid for you.
As for the Wikipedia link. What did you expect me to reply to? If you would like some actual cited links that would be easy but it was hardly a revalation to me. There is so much worse going on today that the Nakba pales into insignificance. Wasn't Netanyahu a member of Irgun? A known terrorist organisation much like the ANC and look what happens when you give them power.
Our indignation is under control. You are told who to support, who to despise and even who to argue about. You do not doubt who is the bad guy in the Ukraine war and you are told to support Nelson Mandella in South Africa and do. We argue over Israel and Palestine for some reason although you have not given me anything to disagree with you about. The media tells us to fixate about such things. While we discuss such things entire populations like Nagorno-Karabakh cease to exist and no one notices. They are not a chose subject.
We're in an age where important video and audio online may be deleted without warning and without any ability to find it elsewhere. There's a very useful tool which lets you store an offline copy of video and audio called YT-DLP:
I don't normally like command line tools, but this is pretty easy to use. After you've installed it, you just type yt-dlp and then the URL of the video or audio, then it saves it as a DRM-free file on your computer.
It works with a variety of different video and audio platforms.
(This replaces an earlier tool called yt-dl which is no longer maintained.)

The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) has issued a grave warning over the dire conditions faced by tens of thousands of pregnant and breastfeeding women in Gaza, as extreme hunger continues to jeopardize their health and the survival of their newborns.
In a statement shared by UNFPA’s Arab States Regional Office on X, the agency revealed that approximately 50,000 women in Gaza “haven’t eaten for days.”
UN agencies warn that "Israel's" blockade of Gaza is driving catastrophic hunger among pregnant women and newborns, with soaring death rates and a collapsing health system.
@stefania maurizi The first thing that comes to mind is who gives a flying fuck what a psychopath says, but then beyond that if the UN were truly antisemtic they'd be siding with Israel which is 97% Ashkenazi, NOT a Semitic people and against Palestine which is 100% a Semitic people, but they're not.
Last week, UN Special Rapporteur Francesca #Albanese made headlines across the world for exposing the dozens of companies that she says have profited from #Israel’s #genocide in #Gaza. Albanese’s UN report, ‘From Economy of Occupation to Economy of Genocide,’ goes beyond just the typical weapons-manufacturing culprits, and calls out financial institutions, educational institutions, and #BigTech companies, including #Alphabet Inc. ( #Google), #Amazon, #IBM, #Palantir, as well as many, many others.
In response, the #US Mission to the UN renewed its calls for the UN secretary-general to condemn Albanese and remove her as special rapporteur for human rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territory.
Now, world-leading economists, including former Greek Finance Minister Yanis #Varoufakis, French economist Thomas #Piketty, and Lebanese-American statistician and essayist Nassim Nicholas #Taleb, are praising Albanese for her report.
Zeteo has obtained an exclusive English copy of the economists’ open letter on Albanese’s report, in which they accuse corporations of “maintaining the Apartheid regime and enabling the subsequent genocide.”
Former Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis, French economist Thomas Piketty, and others join open letter supporting Albanese amid US calls to remove her as the UN special rapporteur on Palestine.

El otro día puse por aquí una movida con un operario,mileurista de merda, que decía que hay que votar a Vocs porque alguien tiene que poner orden (movidas xenofobas,claro) y que se joda el resto. Claro Guapi, cuando te bajen el salario mínimo, te acaben de joder la SS (el tiene Sanitas y ya se cree Elon Musk) vas a flipar tu y tus hijas y el resto de tu familia. Esta gente se creen que a ellos no les afecta nada 🙄
περίμενα κάτι καλύτερο. Αυτό είναι επαίσχυντο. Δεν υπάρχει ούτε μία αναφορά στους λόγους που έχει επιβληθεί εμπάργκο στην Ερυθρά θάλασσα. Δεν υπάρχει ούτε μία αναφορά που να λέει ότι τα πλοία που ΔΕΝ κατευθύνονται στα λιμάνια της σιωνιστικής οντότητας δεν έχουν πρόβλημα διέλευσης. Δεν υπάρχει ούτε μία αναφορά στο ότι οι πλοιοκτήτριες εταιρείες αγνοούν το εμπάργκο και στέλνουν τα καράβια στη σιωνιστική οντότητα.
Diverses informacions asseguren que això s'està debatent en la reforma de l'Ordenança del Civisme però l'Ajuntament i els grups municipals ho neguen rotundament
Per cert, està estudiat que les notícies falses tenen milers i milions de cops més impacte que el desmentit i els fets reals.
Per dues raons:
1. Reconèixer que ens han enganyat sap mal. Preferim no assumir ni difondre el desmentit per no quedar com estúpids. Fins i tot dubtem de la realitat i ens aferrem a la falsedat.
2. Les notícies falses confirmen prejudicis, pors i odis generalitzats. Són molt satisfactòries, doncs alliberen la nostra ràbia. Ens fan sentir vius.

En serio, si creéis que el antirracismo es aplaudir a quien, cayendo en una constante de la izquierda, "defiende" la migración porque "hacen curros que nadie quiere" y "sostienen la economia del país"... es utilitarismo.
Iba a hablar de un error de la izquierda, pero no lo es cuando ya se ha dicho por activa y por pasiva que reducir a personas a su capacidad productiva no es ni antirracista ni tampoco anticapitalista.
No considerar al antirracismo interlocutor valido es otra forma de racismo.

#USA has imposed 50% tariffs on #EU imports, and #Brussels has cancelled a $43 billion contract with #Boeing, rerouted its supply chains through #Canada, and shifted over $2 trillion worth of trade away from #Washington.
What we are seeing is the collapse of #US-EU economic relations. The total economic collapse of the West. This is a tectonic shift in global power, and the West can watch the next economic order take shape without a seat at the table.
At the same time, Trump is imposing 25% tariffs on #Japan and #SamsungRepublic, which are expected to take effect on August 1. With dozens of nations facing similar threats, this strategy will weaken Western partnerships rather than strengthen #US influence.
The #isolationism that will destroy the Evil "empire" is here to stay.

Ακούω ότι οι Σιωνιστές έχουν υπερδιπλασιάσει τα ναύλα για τη Χάιφα, και κάθε τυχοδιώκτης Έλληναρας εφοπλιστής κάνει ουρά για να πάρει συμβόλαιο. Ετσι και αλλιώς, η ασφάλεια θα δώσει περισσότερα από όσο κοστίζουν τα σαπακια τους.
Cod used to be giants. With their impressive size—over a meter in length and weighing up to 40 kilograms—and abundance, they, alongside herring, were the backbone of the Baltic fishery. Today, a fully grown cod would fit neatly on a dinner plate.

A brutal massacre unfolded in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, after Israeli occupation forces targeted a crowd of starved Palestinians waiting for humanitarian aid.
According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent, the devastating airstrike killed 16 civilians, including 10 children, as desperate parents stood in line to receive nutritional supplements for their little ones.
In a new horrific war crime, "Israel" bombed a queue of women and children awaiting food supplements in Deir al-Balah amid an alarming starvation crisis.
Two of Gaza’s largest hospitals have issued desperate pleas for help, warning that fuel shortages caused by Israel’s siege could soon turn the medical centres into “silent graveyards”.
The warnings from al-Shifa Hospital in northern Gaza City and Nasser Hospital in southern Khan Younis came on Wednesday, as Israeli forces continued to bombard the Palestinian enclave, killing at least 74 people.
When I was in Congress, the least popular, least respected members were the biggest publicity seekers – the ones who were the first and quickest to run to the cameras. They were not regarded as serious legislators.

An Israeli advocacy group has petitioned the Supreme Court to declare PM Netanyahu unfit for office, accusing him of breaching conflict-of-interest rules and eroding the rule of law.
The petition, filed by the NGO Democratic Fortress, accuses Netanyahu of violating his conflict-of-interest agreement and argues he should be declared "incapacitated" under the "defensive democracy" principle, according to a report by Maariv newspaper.
“We’ve decided we don’t want you to come.” That’s what Palestinian families in Yafa were told as they sought shelter in bunkers when Iranian retaliatory missiles targeted the occupied city in June 2025.
Palestinians from the territories occupied in 1948 were locked out of bomb shelters, denied protection, and reminded once again that their “citizenship” means nothing when it matters the most.

Israel has continued to demolish homes in the Tulkarm refugee camp as the number of displaced Palestinians rises to more than 40,000 since the military operation in the occupied West Bank began in January.
According to Israeli rights group B’Tselem, Israeli offensives in Tulkarm, Nur Shams, and Jenin camps have led to the displacement of tens of thousands.
