may Assata Shakur rest in forever peace, love & power very grateful 4 all she did that will live on forever & that she lived as a free woman all these yrs “Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them.”

Listen, I'm going to need us to stop saying that humans are horrible and that all the injustice in the world right now is our collective doing. It's the doing of a handful of people, and we know their names.

It's not about principled non-violence. It's about monopolizing violence by people who have power. As in, they will kill you & demand your silence, politeness, and to be remembered as heroes while they suffocate you.

"We've lost Beyoncé". We never had her, beloved. Billionaires' class solidarity with one another will always trump any affinity we think we have with them.

If your company has a ridiculously named role like "Chief Joy Officer," I just know your work culture is a toxic hellscape. I will not be taking any questions at this time.

We say "FREE PALESTINE!" because we believe it will come to be. Palestine will be free, Sudan will be at peace, Congo will thrive, Kashmir will be liberated, Haiti will prosper - freedom is the only inevitability.

Political violence? It's political violence to carpet bomb entire communities, to bury people in rubble, to manufacture crisis & hunger, to withhold medicine & healthcare - to subject the vast majority of people on the face of the earth to avoidable suffering. THAT is political violence.

Dancing on the graves of those who would bury us alive is morally good & intellectually sound.

Children suffered that same fate & continue to in America's classrooms, under Gaza skies, in Khartoum streets. All because of US militarism & war machines. Fuck that man & everyone who fights for this depravity.

Yes, it shouldn't be normal to live in a world where we can watch a video of someone being shot through the neck on social media at a public event. But that's exactly the kind of violence CK normalized (along with countless atrocities). He simply thought himself as the perpetrator, not the target.

I know it's a manufactured economic crisis, and CSIS is recruiting, but please do not do counter revolutionary snitching for $60/hr.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but go clean your microwave.

Bring mean to fascists & their apologists is actually ethical & morally consistent with radical politics.

Every abolitionist should pay attention to what's happening in Indonesia with labor movements, police violence and the murder of Affan Kurniawan. Abolition is a global, anti-colonial, people's movement.

...and the hate continues in #Alberta #bannedbooks The Handmaid's Tale among more than 200 books to be pulled at Edmonton public schools Internally distributed list obtained by CBC shows more than 200 books slated for removal www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

For @truthout.org I look at Canada's border policies and how we force US-based migrants to hide for 14 days to be able to claim asylum. Rather than preparing for more arrivals, Canada is making it virtually impossible for people to claim asylum from the US. truthout.org/articles/can...

Abolition is a global anti-colonial struggle. Policing is a feature of colonization & empire.

Why use Chat GPT for therapy when you can crowd source equally unhinged advice cobbled together from the input of thousands of strangers via reddit like a normal person.

Conversations about the birth rates in Palestine & in Sudan are tantamount to eugenics. Colonialism & capitalism have made everlasting crises in our homelands. Our children are how we survive as a people - from the middle passage, to the nakba to the Potawatami trail of death, life splinters.

Access to power under a system of injustice is not the same as being free. Freedom is not a zero sum game. None of us have to lose.

The UAE, where 80% of smuggled & stole gold from Sudan ends up - has increased its gold reserves by 25.9% in the first 5 months of 2025. This is what Sudanese people pay for in blood.

Good morning. The FBI has office in 64 countries & the NYPD has them in 14. Fuck the feds & NYPD, globally.

American imperialism underpins policing. Across the planet, cops enforce the will of political elite & protect their investment in imperialist ventures.

Everywhere on the planet, policing is a structure left behind to facilitate the colonizers will. Abolition is an anti-colonial movement across borders.

I am going to put on my religious scholar hat for a minute here & say that the way some of you are using ChatGPT is tantamount to shirk. No, I won't be taking any questions.

I hope you embrace your anger at injustice because it embraces you with the knowledge that we deserve more and that better is possible. Nurture the rage that screams out for justice.

I don't need my fridge to have a tablet on it. It doesn't need a wifi connection or a touch screen. I need it to last more than 5 years and not freeze my lettuce every two business days.

The Associated Press: "As President Trump pushes the boundaries on concentration camps within US borders, a debate has emerged about several pieces of decades old legislation stripping or simply denying various racialized people of US citizenship before disappearing them and taking their land."

Air Canada is manufacturing poverty for their employees & engaging in wage theft, all while creating the most hostile, uncomfortable & expensive flying experience for customers all so they can pay their executives astronomical salaries & increase profits for their largest shareholders.

"What began as a modest effort by a few members of a small congregation to reach out to migrants would evolve into a deep experiment in solidarity..." our new issue of @hammerandhope.bsky.social is out! today I want to highlight this article by Benji Hart hammerandhope.org/article/chic...

I am pretty sure I was the first person UofT fired for speaking up on Gaza (October 11th, 2023). Since then, I've been fired from or dropped from 14+ gigs. Most recently, I lost my space in a funded writing retreat. I am hosting workshops to help me finish my book. Free Palestine all the time.

Nothing like Caribana weekend to bring out & unite the most hateful racists.

Happy emancipation day, free up! Honor your ancestors - whether they were enslaved in the transatlantic trade or the transsaharan one - they took their freedom but their own hands.

HUGE legal victory: @cycletoronto.bsky.social has won its Charter challenge of the Ford government's legislation requiring removal of Toronto bike lanes! Justice Schabas ruled that the law puts cyclists at increased risk of harm and death which engages the right to life and security of the person.

idgaf about space-fascist is potentially dating knock-off-prince-Eric-fascist, there are genocides, wildfires & mass abandonment to worry about.

CGPT is using a million liters of water a day

"Canada" is not exempt from the imperial boomerang. Violence against migrants is as part of the cultural landscape of this place. Just this year, the Canada Border Services Agency got more power & funding. The largest municipal police forces are growing their recruitment & bottom line.

Friends don't let friends become ICE agents.

Attacks on artists are political warfare - censorship, loss of intellectual property to AI models, manufactured poverty through centralized platforms that extract labour & profit from artists to ultra rich execs (who then turn around & invest it in the war machine). High tech fascism.

🇨🇱 In Chile, where AI data centers threaten the country’s precious water resources, Karen Hao makes the case that AI firms are building their wealth off resource extraction and labor exploitation reut.rs/3GmhZPy

Those British podcast dudes stay cackling every single day for absolutely no gd reason.

Toronto's bubble zone bylaw is now accepting applications for rights/protest-free properties! And they'll be enforced by... Transportation Standards Officers! Come for the ineptitude, stay for the Charter violations! Gift link: www.thestar.com/news/gta/you...

Cuts to healthcare funding are a form of eugenicist, racialized class warfare. The state is legislating the institutional abandonment and genocide of poor, disabled, Black, Indigenious, racialized, mad, sick & elderly people.

Ya'll are gonna nice us all the way to death. Neither an occupying army nor the fascists directing them have any right to demand that we are nice to them. I hope that helps.

The fascists answer to the catastrophes they continue to manufacture is always "more cops." Policing every aspect of our lives requires tremendous resources, which could be used to address social issues in the first place.

Making your home a hostile & hateful place does not toughen your children up. It traumatizes them & makes them ill-equipped to handle conflict, crisis, and catastrophes. The outside world is horrifying enough, home should always be a soft place.
