Gaza Solidarity Encampment enters 3rd day following mass arrests

Historian & activist Norman Finkelstein spoke on Columbia's South Lawn, praising the protesters:

"I acknowledge the really incredible conviction & tenacity of your generation, which in many ways, is more impressive than my own".

You young people are doing this "for a tiny, stateless people halfway around the world. That’s deeply moving, deeply impressive, & deeply inspiring.”

In light of Rishi Sunak's comments on long-term sickness (and his inferred position on disability), I thought I'd re-post this from some time ago..

still apposite!

Being neutral on starvation means people get starved. Being neutral on genocide means people get exterminated.

This is so you know what academics and journalists who are framing their neutrality as the high road are doing.

There's rumors that the Guardian in the #UK is looking to interview #trans teens/young adults on the topic of DIY HRT.
If this is true, do not under any circumstances talk to them or engage.
To be clear, these are only rumors; but The Guardian in the UK is horribly transphobic and it is completely within their character to attack DIY HRT options to further their anti-trans agenda.

Not even 24 hrs after making history as the first company to mass fire workers for pro-Palestine protests, by summarily firing 28 people, Google announced that the “(ir)responsible AI org,” the one they created in response to firing me, is now reporting up the Israeli office, through an SVP there.

Seems like they want us to know how forcefully and clearly they are backing this genocide.

Google went from “don’t be evil” to “help commit genocide or you’re fired”.

Fascists have been scraping and doxxing leftists who use Discord for the past year.

Discord just got even less safe with the release of this new scraping tool.

Stick to audited end-to-end encrypted messaging apps like Signal.

"Protestors interrupt US defense chief's testimony to demand Gaza cease-fire"

"Lloyd Austin you are a liar! You lied to your nation about the genocide in Gaza. You're a liar. You're lying to the American people."

"You disregard the International Court of Justice. They destroyed the Iranian Embassy in Damascus. You disregard a US federal court. You say that genocide is good for American jobs. Shame on you!"

All the main parties in the UK, with the exception of the SNP and Greens, seemingly hate young people. They are effectively robbing young people of their future, all so a narrow subsection of older people can have larger bank balances. It's grotesque.
I hate to see what has become of the UK, and the sooner Scotland can gain its independence the better it will be for Scotland's youth
