A global collective hope crisis is simmering, with many people hurting, criminalized, repressed, and doubting that justice is possible. The old fable of a stable job, home, family and retirement is crumbling. But, things are much more hopeful than they initially seem. @greenleftonline.bsky.social

Women and the LGBTQIA+ community have become the faces of resistance against the far-right Salvadoran government.

"The (US's) anti-drugs policy isn't aimed at stopping cocaine from reaching the US ...its for dominating the (Global) south in general," said Gustavo Petro in the UN yesterday, on the US striking Venezuelan boats (and I'd add, categorising Latin American countries as terrorists)

Israel has attacked five different countries today: Lebanon, Palestine, Syria (3 locations, including the ancient city of Palmyra), Yemen, and a boat carrying activists and food in Tunisian waters. That's a wholllllle lot of defending itself, ey??

Pakistan and Iran are carrying out the decade’s largest forced migration, deporting Afghans into poverty and repression. With resources already stretched after Sunday’s deadly earthquake, Afghanistan is in no position to support the thousands now arriving. www.truthdig.com/articles/hum...

A whole community of Mazatec people in Oaxaca, #Mexico is being attacked as they try to defend their river from aggregate mining. The repression is proportionate to their resistance and they really are an example of the collective #environmental care that is possible. truthout.org/articles/san...

We’ve had 28 COP meetings on climate change and still haven’t capped emissions…

British lawmakers voted to ban Palestine Action as a “terrorist” group after members vandalized two aircraft.

The complete irony of this @nytimes.com piece about a protest against gentrification in #mexico (which they stupidly call "tourism") written by a journalist IN and FROM the US with no knowledge of the country or issue. The piece embodies the mentality & economic power that was being protested 🙄

Today is the International #DayOfTheMidwife It comes as unnecessary c-sections and obstetric violence rates are spiking. This has a lot to do with medical decisions being made in the interests of profit or efficiency, rather than women. znetwork.org/znetarticle/... @officialznet.bsky.social
