The thing is it's still the only place for a huge amount of anti-war, anti-imperialist content and analysis, not least Palestinian voices. Bluesky simply can't compare

In 2021 the UN's independent expert on Venezuela Alena Douhan wrote a report in which she said US and western sanctions on Venezuela had been the primary factor in reversing the progress made under Chavez and had been deliberately designed to cripple the country

"Anyone repeating the line that Venezuela has been immiserated by the socialist revolution, then, is simply a liar or an imperial stooge."

‘PBS, The Guardian, The Washington Post & others called this murderous violence & flagrant breach of international law “an audacious raid.” ABC News called it “stunning.” Sky News said it was “spectacular & “stunning”….be forgiven for thinking they were describing a new year’s eve fireworks display’

Another article because events. And the title should speak for itself open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

The US has couped Venezuela for its oil and for capitalism. The invasion is bipartisan. Obama set the stage with an emergency powers declaration against Venezuela a decade ago. Because this is what the US empire is. This is what it does open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

"Of course good things happen on the margins: a new national wildlife reserve here, medical breakthrough there. And we should support the good guys when they come along. But isolated moments don’t shift trends. We can’t get distracted. Only the end of imperialism and extractive capitalism will do."

A friend asked me the other day if I'd write something positive as a one-off for Christmas. So I wrote this. open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

The western media and political class says 'globalise the intifada' incited the Bondi attacks. It's projection. Tens of thousands of Jews from over 70 countries participated in the genocide of Gaza. The only globalised terror is Zionist terror open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

I've just run the numbers on 'Israel keeps Jews safe.' It's not great news

Few have heard about the dozens of attacks on Gaza's beaches. They didn't provoke outrage or days of front-page coverage. The reaction by the media and political class to atrocities on beaches is loud and clear: Jewish lives matter, Palestinian lives don’t www.donotpanic.news/p/terror-on-...

15 dead Jews is days of headlines and global political reaction. 15 dead Palestinians is just another Tuesday

In a Q&A on its website, Chabad, the Jewish group which organised the Bondi beach event, argues that every child in Gaza killed by Israel is a human shield, their deaths are 'tragic inevitabilities' and Israel can't be held responsible

It's amazing coming on this app and looking at the Bondi related posts and typing in Eli Schlanger and all the posts are about how he was such a great guy

“AI is not coming to save us… It might take your job but it won’t shorten your workday. It will though be used as a stick to beat you with. Why aren’t you more productive…given you have this fabulous AI assistant?”

"A company with deep ties to Israeli intelligence oversees cyber security across more than seventy US government agencies, including the Department of Defense and Homeland Security."

‘Given the evidence that Axonius is an Israeli intelligence cut-out, the scale of its penetration within the US federal government structure is extraordinary.’

A cyber start-up run by former Israeli spies oversees cyber security across more than seventy US government agencies and millions of federal employees including the Department of Defense and Homeland Security. New investigation by me open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

The US, via a Trump tweet, has forced the closure of Venezuela's airspace. No commerical travel, no freight, no deliveries as the world's most violent empire gears up for another regime change operation open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

If Palestinian fighters had just killed 25 Israelis the western media and political class would be shrieking in indignation about an egregious breach of the ceasefire and Israel would immediately kill 500 Palestinians to zero condemnation. But this won't even be news

For so long the sanctioned narrative was that Epstein was just a bad apple associating with other bad apples. He wasn’t. Epstein and the elite are the grotesque fruit of a poisoned orchard and we need to uproot every single tree open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

‘Whether the bursting of the AI bubble triggers government bailouts a la 2008 or not, it will take down the global economy.’

Rants as ranty as this one are among my most favourite things to read 💪 #AI

. @natebear1.bsky.social explains how our evil billionaire overlords are destroying the planet (climate disaster), education (students not learning, creds mean nothing), and the power grid with Gen AI. Stop Gen AI is the only grassroots group helping us poors. www.donotpanic.news/p/the-ai-mac...

We’ve been sold it as an emancipatory tool, but AI is enslaving us. We are facing the full capture of the human mind and human society by psychopathic and sociopathic Silicon Valley reptiles and we have to stop it. Latest from me open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

"What’s happening in Sudan is a true horror. Vicious evil is being committed. But the shameless attempts to smear Gaza protestors by ... creating a false equivalence with Sudan stink overwhelmingly of the moral squalor and intellectual feebleness that, by now, we’ve come to associate with Zionists."

Wrote about the commentators and politicians cynically weaponising a genocide to try and salvage the reputation of Israel by manufacturing a non-existent double standard over Sudan open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

Anyone who identifies as resistance or anti-fascist in any way needs to read this. Reminds me a lot of Doctorow’s Little Brother trilogy, but somehow more nightmarish. Seems like a great time to wear infrared reflecting glasses and other anti-AI garments.

"almost every large American city has signed a contract with Skydio in the last 18 months. Skydio drones were recently used by city police departments to gather information at the ‘No Kings’ protests and used by Yale to spy on the anti-genocide protest camp set up by students last year"

AI-powered drones used by the IDF to commit genocide in Gaza are swarming the skies of American cities. A little-known FAA rule change this year opened the floodgates and sparked a buying spree by US security forces open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

An overlooked contributor to the genocide in Sudan is European migration panic. In 2014 the EU (then including the UK) signed a deal with Sudan known as the Khartoum process which EXPLICITLY empowered and armed the RSF to militarise the border and stop (arrest or kill) transiting asylum seekers

Incredibly instructive insight into imperialism. As the most devastating storm in Caribbean history tears through the region the US has sent warships to the same sea not to provide aid but to prep for a regime change

On the history of Zionism in Hollywood and how I've come to see holocaust films not as educational and intended to inform social and political sensibilities but as cultural scaffolding for Zionism open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

Reading this February piece by @natebear1.bsky.social reminded me of the TNG episode "The Arsenal of Freedom." When it first aired, I thought it was a quaint morality play. Now I think it was a prescient look at a near-term future that I once thought unimaginable. www.donotpanic.news/p/let-them-e...

Liberals got angry at my Greta article so I dragged them a bit more open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

"She could have had the lucrative career of performative activism she was being lined up for. But by shunning this path, she shows up so many liberals for the frauds they are. She also puts a spotlight on all the big climate scientists who’ve never once said genocide is bad for the environment."

The liberal class once hailed Greta Thunberg's values. But Thunberg stepped outside of her lane and transgressed against the only true values the liberal class understands: imperial values. For this they abandoned her open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

Greta doing what she's doing for Gaza really puts a spotlight on all the big climate scientists who've never once said 'genocide is bad for the environment.' The people who once shared stages with her now don't even retweet her. Bankrupt centrism

This note went viral on substack. Like and reposted by thousands of real people. Ashley Evans is an AI bot. The average internet IQ is very depressing

Keir Starmer with the help of Palantir is building a mass deportation machine for Nigel Farage to unleash open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

Netanyahu keeps affirming Israel will never allow a Palestinian state which reveals a central truth of the last two years: Israel has never been at war with Hamas it has always been at war with the Palestinian people. Western media shame themselves for not making this clear

Nearly two years into this holocaust and the images only get more shameful

Silent on all those arrested for pro-Palestine speech, found his voice for a TV show host. Classic Obama

Latest is on the attempts by the far-right to leverage Kirk's killing to create new bigoted and more hateful hegemonic recognition norms open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

Charlie Kirk took up zero amounts of my emotional energy before he died and he'll take up zero in the future. But what the overblown coverage revealed is worth reacting to. Because what it revealed is the west's racist and fascist political and media culture open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

LOT of Zionists out there today saying “violence is never the answer.”

No. It’s not a tragedy that some kids won’t be raised by one of the most evil and hateful and misogynistic man of his generation.

To maintain cognitive coherence liberal Zionists have to invest in a worldview stuck somewhere in the 1990s. If they were to recognise Zionism and Israel today as a central organising principle of racism, fascism and modern white supremacy it would break their brains
