Jeffrey Epstein continued to wield power and influence at the highest levels of global politics even after his conviction for soliciting prostitution from a 14-year-old. Our society is deeply sick. But we don't have to be ruled by pedophiles, narcissists and sociopaths.

Sounds good to me. Corruption and nefarious activities ( eg. Robodebt) will continue when there are zero consequences. #auspol

Iceland did something after the 2008–09 crash that the US, UK and EU pretend is impossible as Trump and his vile ilk ride rough shod over our democracies. It confronted and punished its corrupt bankers and failed politicians. And rebuilt a fairer society from the rubble. 🧵

Between the Epstein emails and the Panama Papers it’s now painfully clear how the world works. The question is: what are we going to do about it?

“Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.” This is the unbelievable story of the man who said those famous words, Frederick Douglass. Born a slave. Died a global resistance leader. 🧵

Introducing Mo-Me… 📲 Mo-Me, created with @media-revolution.bsky.social for Media Liberation Day, acts as community refuge for the many people looking to leave Big Tech platforms today. #SocialMedia #MediaRevolution

Toxic billionnaire-owned media has eroded our democracy. We need a media revolution. #CoverStory #MediaRevolution @media-revolution.bsky.social

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

A revolution started in the UK today. To disrupt the disinformation and division of the billionaire media standing between us and another and better world. You can be part of it. mediarevolution.org #MediaRevolution

Agreed @owenjones.bsky.social And the current dying and billionaire-captured incarnation of Labour would claim that the man on the street has no time for the socialist policies that powered Mamdani's victory. bsky.app/profile/redh...

Oh no! Zohran Mamdani's victory in New York has let the billionaire cat out of the bag. EVERYONE in the US & UK wants the socialist goodies he's offering - and the game's up for capitalism. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfdU...

Hi, I’m God. Jesus and I agree that starving the poor so you can build yourself golden bathrooms and golden ballrooms is evil. Anyone who does that shall burn for eternity. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Thanks, God

Let's live the lives we are meant to - joyful lives surrounded by community and nature, both of which we are part of and totally dependent upon.

📢Join us Nov 11 (7pm EST) for our event: Update on Rojava. Meghan Bodette (@_____mjb) will share the latest news and analysis of what is happening in Syria and what it could mean for the future of the Rojava revolution, followed by a Q&A. RSVP here: www.defendrojava.org/events/updat...

Finland knows that Socialism works. They house all the homeless people, and have the least in the world. They closed all paid Education in 1976 and now have the best education system in the world. They are the happiest country in the world. Be like Finland.

Lord of the Rings Is Antifa. Orwell is Antifa. Harry Potter is Antifa. Sesame Street is Antifa. Who’s going to tell Elmo?

The idea that Zack Polanski is charismatic is a red herring. Yes he knows how to communicate but it’s not charisma that draws people to him; it’s saying common sense, decent things that many of us believe but other politicians have been weirdly reluctant to say.

Good advice - but we also need to change the system that elevates the narcissists, the sociopaths, the manipulators to the top.

It's almost as if the media and right wing parties are manufacturing consent. The most important issue to people will always be material conditions.

This is what politicians and media invariably get wrong.

3 things Starmer could do instead of camps in old barracks that would actually WORK👇 1. Create safe, regulated routes to apply for asylum in the UK 2. Let asylum seekers WORK & support themselves 3. Fast track status for people from obviously unsafe countries metro.co.uk/2025/10/29/k...

Another week, another panel without a single person representing the Green Party, Your Party, SNP, Cymru and Lib Dems. That's only about 60% of voters that never have any representation. Balanced? BS more like.

Some tried this defence at Nuremberg. Let’s see how they got on. 🧵

This is a message of respect and love. Please pass it on to someone who needs to hear it.

“Evil is the refusal to see the humanity in others” - Erich Fromm

I have a very bad feeling about this...

Amazing! All it took was actually caring about the best interests of the people you represent more than billionaire donors and corporations.

They really did a number on generations of Americans with "anticommunism" propaganda.

Why do Americans believe they can’t have nice things? Stellan Skarsgård nails it.

Not dealing with the insidious BBC profile building for this shit bag over decades is what has him where he is.

History is trying to repeat itself. These are the lessons that the defeat of UK fascism in the 1930s have for those of us fighting its 21st century incarnation. bsky.app/profile/redh...

This is Phil Piratin — the 1930s activist who showed us how to beat today's fascists and racists as they try to tear down democracy in the US and the UK. From rent strikes to the Battle of Cable Street, Piratin proved that when communities organise, fascism runs away.

What's the definitive meme of life in 2025 and why is it this one?

We urgently need democratic oversight of social media algorithms.

That's more or less what I wish for my daughter, now aged 25. I work hard on making this possible.

Machado is only the latest VBP (Very Bad Person) to be awarded the world's most suspect peace prize bsky.app/profile/redh...

Crazy how well some threads do on Bluesky vs X. George Orwell vs Elon Musk: 📈 1,200 likes on Bluesky 📉 155 likes on X What's going on?

The #NoKings marches are scaring the hell out of Trump and his fellow fascists. But history tells us exactly what MUST come next to destroy his vile regime.

🚨 Labour, Reform, and the right-wing press are all attacking the Green Party. 🟢 Because our message of hope and change challenges everything they stand for. 💚 Stand with us and help turn our country around. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Nobel Peace Prize recipient María Corina Machado appeared on Donald Trump Jr.’s podcast. She touted the oil reserves in Venezuela (the largest in the world) and vowed to privatize the oil industry to enable American corporations to exploit and profit from the country’s resources if she gains power.

Remembering a conversation with an oil trader who sold his company and moved to Switzerland. Why? "Because that seems like a good place to be when the shit hits the fan. Things never end well when the gap between rich and poor is this big. Even my hedge fund buddies are begging to be taxed more." 😨

This is what the media don't get. It's not about raising the maximal amount of tax revenue. It's the first step towards making society fairer and stopping it from collapsing.

Every empire falls the same way. The "wealth pump" overflows. A tiny elite siphon off the surplus, hollowing out the society beneath them until it cracks. It’s happening again. But it doesn't have to be this way.

The Nobel Peace Prize is a bad joke. Monsters like Henry Kissinger, genocide enablers like Aung San Suu Kyi and warmongers like Barack Obama have won it. Time for an Anti-Nobel Prize for real peacemakers who end conflict through nonviolence & integrity. Some winners of our REAL peace prize.🧵

This highly acclimated prize is steeped in blood and destruction. The award was made by the donation of moneys made from the sale of explosives perfected by Alfred Nobel.

The Nobel Peace Prize was won by one of the worst war criminals of the 20th century. The year was 1973. His name was Henry Kissinger. This is his thread of shame. #RedHotHistory

Zack Polanski became leader of the Green Party just a month ago but has already taken British politics by storm. Tonight he appears on Question Time alongside a rogues’ gallery of right-wingers. So where did he come from - and what does he believe? 🧵

Kindess defeats evil every time.
