Brazilโ€™s most revered Indigenous leader, Raoni Metuktire, has said he believes that one of the former president Jair Bolsonaroโ€™s goals while in office was to โ€œexterminateโ€ the countryโ€™s Indigenous peoples.

โ€œHe really wanted to exterminate us. But Indigenous peoples across Brazil united to resist his government,โ€ he says, adding that โ€œfrom now on, every president elected in Brazil must respect Indigenous peoplesโ€

@RichardJMurphy hits the nail on the head (as so often):

'if any political party wishes to truly succeed โ€” not just scrape by, but build lasting loyalty and transform this country โ€” it must make the promise that it will put people first, meet their needs from cradle to grave, and offer them freedom from fear'!

However, our political class seems quite some way from that agenda....

I keep meaning to write up an analysis of LLM use based on systems-thinkingโ€”the core issue is that their volatility is bad for organisations and leads to gambler behaviour in individualsโ€”but then I come across some fresh bullshit and realise there's nothing I can say to change people's minds. The people who are against it are already against it and the people who are for it, or even on the fence, aren't likely to listen to my style of argument.

This is a war crime. Israel just bombed a prison ward where trans people were kept locked up. Hundreds of trans people exterminated. There is no rational explanation for this.

Israel called the bombing "symbolic".

The nation state system, Western conceptions of property rights, and the theater we call "rule of law" are all reaching their logical ends.

They were all just Colonialism 2.0 and the whole inane system is slowly being crushed under its own weight.

We need a detailed proposal for what a post-nation state could look like.

Particular attention must be paid to how systems that sustain civilization can be picked up & transformed with as little damage as possible as the systems of yesterday perish.

in reply to Aaron

This might sound unhinged to many; after all, imagination around other systems, other ways of being, and other types of civilizations, other ways of doing trade and sustaining life, those are all things we are taught not to think about or take seriously, and communities who practice alternatives are have always been ignored when possible, or met with violence.

The most unhinged systems are the ones we exist in today, normalized because we are just fish in the waters of our suicidal system.

SOMMET DES BRICS : ยซ IL EST INACCEPTABLE DE CONTINUER ร€ UTILISER LE FMI ET LA BANQUE MONDIALE POUR PERPร‰TUER DES PRATIQUES COLONIALES ยป. ( #Lavrov)
Contrairement ร  ces pratiques, la nouvelle Banque de dรฉveloppement des #BRICS se distingue par son innovation et s'attache ร  tirer parti des efforts des pays membres du groupe pour renforcer leurs รฉconomies et amรฉliorer leur bien-รชtre.

Lors de la deuxiรจme session du sommet des BRICS, le ministre russe des Affaires รฉtrangรจres a affirmรฉ que la grande majoritรฉ des pays souhaitaient mettre en ล“uvre des mรฉcanismes de dรฉveloppement indรฉpendants de lโ€™Occident.

Les pays BRICS sont engagรฉs dans une transformation sans prรฉcรฉdent, s'efforรงant de bรขtir une architecture รฉconomique plus stable, fondรฉe sur les principes de transparence et de non-discrimination, garantissant l'รฉgalitรฉ d'accรจs aux opportunitรฉs pour tous.

ยซ Il est inacceptable de continuer ร  utiliser le Fonds monรฉtaire mondial ( #FMI) et la Banque mondiale pour perpรฉtuer des pratiques nรฉocoloniales ยป, a dรฉclarรฉ M. #Lavrov, remettant en question la prรฉsence de situations similaires au sein de l'Organisation mondiale du commerce ( #OMC) et appelant ร  une rรฉforme des institutions de #BrettonWoods.

Il s'est dit convaincu que les institutions รฉmergentes reflรจtent le vรฉritable รฉquilibre des pouvoirs dans l'รฉconomie mondiale. Lors des dรฉlibรฉrations du deuxiรจme jour du sommet, la Russie a dรฉnoncรฉ le fait que les pays ร  faible revenu et ร  revenu intermรฉdiaire dรฉpensent davantage pour le remboursement de leur dette extรฉrieure que pour leur propre dรฉveloppement, et a averti que cette situation รฉchappait ร  tout contrรดle, mรชme dans certains pays dรฉveloppรฉs.

Il a dรฉnoncรฉ le fait que lโ€™ #Occident subordonne lโ€™octroi de son aide financiรจre ร  des considรฉrations politiques. ร€ titre dโ€™exemple, il a citรฉ lโ€™octroi de fonds dโ€™ยซ aide militaire ยป รฉquivalant ร  500 % du PIB de lโ€™Ukraine, alors que de nombreux pays africains nโ€™ont pas pu accรฉder aux recettes nรฉcessaires pour soutenir leurs prรฉvisions de dรฉveloppement.

Contrairement ร  ces pratiques, il propose que la nouvelle Banque de dรฉveloppement des BRICS se distingue par son innovation et s'attache ร  tirer parti des efforts des pays membres du groupe pour renforcer leurs รฉconomies et amรฉliorer leur bien-รชtre.

Les BRICS contribuent ร  48,5 % de la population mondiale, reprรฉsentent 39 % du PIB, 24 % du commerce extรฉrieur total, 43,6 % de la production de pรฉtrole et des rรฉserves mondiales, et 78,2 % du charbon. Ils excellent รฉgalement dans la crรฉation de technologies alternatives, l'utilisation des nouvelles technologies et la transition numรฉrique.

On Tuesday, July 1, 2025, African Stream published its final video, a defiant farewell message. With that, the once-thriving pan-African media outlet confirmed it was shutting down for good. Not because it broke the law. Not because it spread disinformation or incited violence. But because it told the wrong story, one that challenged U.S. power in Africa and resonated too deeply with Black audiences around the world. When Secretary of State Antony Blinken accused it of being a Kremlin front, Big Tech didnโ€™t hesitate, and within hours, the platform was erased from nearly every major social media site.

Gosuki: a privacy friendly, real time, multi-browser, extension-free bookmark manager


Hello r/linux !

I just released the first version of Gosuki, a multi-browser real time bookmark manager I have been writing on and off for the past few years. It aggregates your bookmarks in real time across all browsers and even external APIs such as Reddit and Github.

I was always annoyed by the existing bookmark management solutions and wanted a tool that just works without relying on browser extensions, self-hosted servers or cloud services. As a developer and Linux user I also find myself using multiple browsers simultaneously depending on the needs so I needed something that works with any browser and can handle multiple profiles per browser.

The few solutions that exist require manual management of bookmarks. Gosuki automatically catches any new bookmark in real time so no need to manually export and synchronize your bookmarks. It allows a tag based bookmarking experience even if the native browser does not support tags. You just hit ctrl+d and write your tags in the title.

Feature Highlights:


  • A single binary with no dependencies or browser extensions necessary. It just work right out of the box.
  • Use the universal ctrl+d shortcut to add bookmarks and call custom commands.
  • Tag with #hashtags even if your browser does not support it. You can even add tags in the Title. If you are used to organize your bookmarks in folders, they become tags
  • Real time tracking of bookmark changes
  • Builtin, local Web UI which also works without Javascript (w3m friendly)
  • suki cli command for a dmenu/rofi compatible output
  • Modular and extensible: Run custom scripts and actions per tags and folders when particular bookmarks are detected
  • Browser Agnostic: Detects which browsers you have installed and watch changes across all of them
  • Also handles multiple profiles per browser
  • Stores bookmarks in a portable sqlite database compatible with the Buku. You can use any program that was made for buku.
  • Can fetch your bookmarks from external APIs (Reddit and Github for now).
  • Easily extensible to handle any browser or API

It's open source with an AGPLv3 license, Checkout the README and website docs for more details.

Edit /etc/default/grub as root.

In the line that says GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="...", add (or append) panic=0.

Followed by: sudo update-grub. (Takes effect on reboot).

Israel continued its genocidal onslaught on Gaza, with medical sources telling Al Jazeera that at least 30 Palestinians had been killed since dawn on Tuesday.

โ€œIt was a sleepless night here in Gaza, marked by an intensification of air attacks and the use of multiple aerial vehicles, including fighter jets, drones and helicopters to pummel residential areas and spaces that had been designated as โ€˜safe zonesโ€™,โ€ Al Jazeeraโ€™s Tareq Abu Azzoum reported from Deir el-Balah in central Gaza.

At least nine Palestinians were killed during an Israeli drone attack on a tent sheltering displaced #Palestinians in the al-Mawasi area near Gazaโ€™s southern city of Khan Younis.

In a separate dawn attack, two people were killed and others injured in Israeli air raids on the Hakr al-Jami area in Deir el-Balah, the Wafa news agency reported, citing medical sources.

Israeli planes also bombed a school sheltering displaced Palestinians in the Bureij refugee camp in central #Gaza, reportedly killing at least four people.
