FIFA continue to sportswash the gen*cide of Palestine

“We don’t have to just rebuild houses or schools or hospitals or roads,” said FIFA President Gianni Infantino. apnews.com/article/gaza...

fyi if you door a cyclist they may be forced to course correct into your soft body rather than the hard door that might kill them

this is what capitalism's necropolitical "market" favours: we ofc could keep more patients alive and give (predominantly women) workers a better quality of life if nurses and carers were paid more money—and that's precisely why they aren't

disease is a tool of oppression, and i need everyone who supports palestinian rights but long abandoned caring about covid to consider how they intersect. caring for your community at home also cares for communities abroad. educate yourselves on airborne pathogen prevention.

passports are imperial documents designed to regulate the flow of people from postcolonies to metroples. they are not neautral travel documents. & it's not like colonizers applied for visas when they went & colonized vast swathes of the globe.

maternal deaths related to childbirth are up by 20%. but while acknowledging the leading cause of maternal death is blood clots, there is zero mention that the leading cause of blood clots in 2025 is SARS-2 infection

“since the start of the cease-fire”

we have to eliminate all notions of the 'good intentions' of western powers, first and foremost the United States. adding this caveat only allows for obfuscation to take place, as though any project of 'democracy' or 'freedom' wasn't always already one of genocide, new forms of servitude, conquest

maternal deaths related to childbirth are up by 20%. but while acknowledging the leading cause of maternal death is blood clots, there is zero mention that the leading cause of blood clots in 2025 is SARS-2 infection

reminder Labour did not oppose the OSA in any meaningful way and in fact some claimed the Bill did not go far enough

👉NEW -- David Lammy ‘waiting for us to die’, Palestine hunger striker claims by Phil Miller and Alex Morris Justice secretary accused of ‘insulting’ families of Palestine Action prisoners. www.declassifieduk.org/david-lammy-...

depressingly 50% of the population being fascists, 40% liberals, and <10% communists / socialists sounds about right (realistically like 2% communists)

Here is the list of the MPs who were officers and supporters of Labour Friends of Israel before it suddenly removed this page from its website.

out of desperation I'm trying to double post between here and the dying app again but there's still a painful lack of materialism on the TL, prove me wrong that it's not still like reddit over here

"Don't spend our money in apartheid Israel" Today, #Celtic fans protested outside their stadium against the possible signing of Jocelin Ta Bi from Maccabi Netanya, whose owners are investing in a military drone company for the IDF. 👇

SARS was known to be airborne since 2003 + most ppl who still wear a respirator had to figure it out themselves in 2020/21. ask yourself why the WHO + national authorities like the NHS chose not to protect workers + purposefully spread a disease which kills and disables patients

lots of dunking on YP today but one thing almost no one will say: that conference is not accessible to immunocompromised people or anyone that can't afford to get sick for the next 1-4 weeks or risk becoming permanently disabled. no masks no tests no filtration no answers no care

first time it's happened since 2021-03-04 (only lasted 10 days), time before that 2016-03-01

days since last Liverpool home defeat (all comps, back to 2009, most recent first): 4 24 10 217 5 178 153 3 415 115 154 81 366 3 12 13 4 13 57 259 532 242 279 85 3 4 248 113 9 70 71 105 55 134 17 39 139 218 222 58 72 11 21 124 9 29 21 293 137 87 154 109 31 4 50 57 138

only in three other seasons since 2008/09 have Liverpool been as low as 12th in the league after 12+ games: the week Hodgson was sacked, a few months after Rodgers took over, and a few weeks after Rodgers was sacked

anyone who knows opsec / data protection law tell if this is legal for an employer to ask employees to allow in order to connect to a VPN when WFH (UK)? verbal promise given from IT that it they won't try to access devices but no legal docs provided

LFC on their 10th soft tissue injury already this season if Isak (groin) & Frimpong (hamstring, again) are confirmed—vs 15 in whole of last season. Slot claimed last season's low number of injuries was not just luck and that focussing on reducing injuries was a key focus of the backroom staff

England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 v Sweden 🇸🇪 penalty shootout at #WEURO2025 🥇 worst total xGoT (1.23) of a shootout with >12 pens 🥇 worst conversion rate (0.38 goals per pen) of a shootout with >12 pens (last 381 men's and women's shootouts, Opta)

don't repeat the same trite apologia of British vassalage as 20 years ago: the British State is not a 'lapdog' being 'dragged into war'—it is a vicious imperialist entity, obviously less *effective* at waging war than it was 50-100 years ago but its objectives are unchanged

The wife of Palestine’s national team former goalkeeper Abdullah Shaqfa has been killed in an Israeli attack on tents in Al-Mawasi, Gaza. A footballer mourning his wife under the rubble. If he wasn’t Palestinian, this would be all over the news. (RT @/leylahamed on twitter)

some quotes from my last piece on Leadbeater's bill likely having its final vote today, combined with Labour's brutal cuts to welfare it will condemn tens of thousands of disabled people per year to death

in the last year the UK has directly bombed—or provided its own aircraft to assist in bombing—civilians in Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Palestine, and now Iran. the UK is waging war on half the Middle East and all without a single debate in parliament.

“fascism is colonialism turned inwards”

this is the same Palantir that has a £330m contract with the NHS and now likely has access to all our health data the same Palantir whose CEO is "incredibly proud" of “predictive policing” which is helping Israel carry out the genocide of Palestinian people

Manchester City's majority owners are an investment company of the Abu Dhabi royal family and their main sponsor is Etihad Airways the UAE is assisting the genocides in both Palestine and Sudan

"Remember, NO MASKS!"

Yousef Al-Najjar of Al-Mohtareffen Academy is just one of 371 footballers in Gaza killed by Israel in the last 20 months including almost 100 children how can Israel STILL compete in UEFA and FIFA competitions when both orgs decided to suspend Russia within FOUR DAYS of their invasion of Ukraine?!

so World Cup 2026 will be like the 1936 Berlin Olympics

Israel's capture of the Madleen + imprisonment of her crew IS a violation of International Law but then so is their 77 year occupation + so are their thousands of Geneva Conventions violations international law does not exist—thus the global regime of capitalism is illegitimate

International Law, murderously imperialist as it was, is dead and the West is only just starting to see the imperial boomerang coming home now: a British ship and its European crew captured illegally, police shooting reporters on camera on US soil... they won't just stop now

nice intro to occupied Kashmir's struggle for self-determination in the most militarised zone on earth—1 Indian soldier per 11 Kashmiris(!!)—which situates it in the context of global imperialism with many obvious ties to Palestine quotes below 🧵 shado-mag.com/articles/opi...

fun variation of Breakout Player of the Season for the last 14 PL seasons: ✅ players <21 at start of season ✅ 1500+ mins in season ✅ no previous breakout seasons Big 5 leagues ✅ can only win the award once

idk what's worse about the parade attack, seeing ppl speculate that whatever a "mob" was doing on a closed street justifies attempted mass murder w/ a 2 tn weapon or the attackers whiteness + Britishness having to be emphasised to stop fkn pogroms again like in Knowsley last yr

alternative: 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰/𝟮𝟱 eligibility: ✅ <=21 y.o. at start of season ✅ 1500+ minutes ✅ first 1500+ minute season in a top tier league

all great penalties by Aberdeen Aberdeen: 0.97 xGoT (Expected Goals on Target average) Celtic: 0.81 xGoT

nice Marxist analysis of "AI" and discussion of resistance strategies, some quotes in this thread

This is so fucking vile and also not surprising in any way and if you’re shocked then it’s time you start actively engaging in disability justice cause you’re gonna be double shocked when you learn it’s the tip of the iceberg.

segregation spreads when it is permitted, 'vulnerable' people have already been segregated from safely accessing society for over 5 years of the ongoing pandemic now. why would the State stop at one group when it knows it can get away with more?

welp twitter down completely now it seems, posting my thoughts on here instead for now even though it's 100x more like screaming into the void here

that's the debate over, Kit Malthouse forced it to close after 5 hrs 5 hrs to debate hundreds of amendments—and most opposition was just dodged or rejected by Leadbeater & co. third reading won't happen for four more weeks at least, there's still time to pressure your MPs!

This is awful. Disabled people warned. MPs didn’t want to look at what’s happening in Canada. Shame on you all.

Every single disabled-led organisation in the UK rejects the Assisted Dying Bill. None of them are religously-motivated. All of them include the very people whom this Bill is supposed to help. And yet, they unanimously reject it. Ask yourself why. buds.org.uk/euthanasia-a...
