Druze are feeling deeply betrayed

Excited to launch this new podcast on Syria ...

Not content to only indoctrinate its own children, russia also propagandizes African children as well. I don't know the origin of this video but @philipobaji.bsky.social documents russia's colonialism and war crimes in Africa.

👀 geez

a former Wagner fighter named Roman Vasilyevich Morin 38, from Stavropol is behind H8Core - a Russian fashion brand that sells clothing glorifying far-right ideology & Wagner. he (as “Uncle Roma”) is also admin of the openly racist Telegram group ‘White Uncles in Africa’.

As the U.S. scales back its global security role, Russia is expanding footprint in Africa—mainly through mercenaries and disinformation. Since 2005, at least seven Russian PMCs have carried out 34 operations in 16 countries, with Wagner Group leading the charge. #Africa #Russia #USA

Owen Jones people.

Owen Jones, calling for Ukraine to be carved into «buffer zones» in February 2022.

Seriously!! #unitethestruggles 🇺🇦 🇵🇸

Sexual violence is a deliberate tactic used by Russian paramilitaries in Africa to spread terror and assert control. Young girls have been lured into traps and women in maternity wards have been raped. blog.icoca.ch/reinforcing-...

Fearless and independent investigative journalism is needed more than ever in these times. Attempts to suppress this story on Trump and the KGB demonstrate this ⬇️ To help fund the stories you won't read in the established press, and to keep honesty alive, subscribe: subscribe.bylinetimes.com

Supporters of CSSD travelled to Cheltenham today to join dozens of people in gathering to oppose an advertised far-right "march" in the town. Whether they were put off by this organised opposition or the cold weather, no-one turned up to demonstrate in support of far-right organiser Tommy Robinson.

English followers: If you’re curious why the new US government is composed of authoritarians, anti-vaccinationists, and libertarians who spread conspiracy theories—and how this relates to late-modern individualization—then this book might be of interest to you. www.politybooks.com/bookdetail?b...

Thanks to @ukrainecampaign.bsky.social who started to counteract such Russian propaganda in the US of A. They also coined the term #unitethestruggles = exactly what we all need to do 🌍 @maks23.bsky.social @marikamikiashvili.bsky.social @theskyisnotblue.bsky.social @angryfella420.fellas.social

We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who made the Discover Syria event happen, it was a huge success. The volunteers, Stroud film festival, Trinity Rooms and Community Solidarity Stroud District 🙏🏼

The new BBC doc about Patriotic Alternative is worth a watch. It once again shows the hateful/violent/extreme politics at the groups core. It's a reminder that what fascists say publicly and privately are always very different. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

We're screening For Sama on Saturday. It's graphic from the outset and very 18.

Baerbock embarrassing herself in Syria.

Hey everyone, we at From The Periphery - @leilashami.bsky.social and I - teamed up with subMedia to produce a short doc on the fall of Bashar Al-Assad. Pls share Youtube link: youtu.be/dRcvomoNwvw?... IG: www.instagram.com/reel/DEP_qEd... Mastodon: kolektiva.social/@subMedia/11... #Syria

How telling that self-proclaimed “leftist” George Galloway only chooses to platform Syrians who are not only Assadists but have ties to far-right groups like the AfD & KKK. One cannot credibly claim to be a leftist while amplifying those aligned with fascism & white nationalism

Scratch beneath the surface.

Major Trump donors who complained of immigrant ‘invasion’ used Mexican workers illegally www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

Lack of clarity in asylum freezes leaves asylum seekers in limbo — unable to make decisions affecting their livelihoods, housing, work, and education — and uncertain as to their ultimate fate. By Obai Kurd Ali and @maitelsadany.bsky.social for @timep.bsky.social. timep.org/2024/12/18/l...

Massacres continue to mount in #Niger and #Mali, by government forces and insurgents alike. Much worse since the coup regimes invited in Russian mercenaries. And the world pays virtually no attention. countervortex.org/blog/human-r...

George galloway said “Arabs are a lost cause” and that he would take his focus away from Palestine and the Middle East. It genuinely feels like he was an Assad asset and after his fall, he stopped receiving money for it. Absolutely pathetic.

As the intl. media gain full access to Syria, Assadists are losing their shit. The control over the media was a cornerstone of the regime, silencing dissent & giving Asadists the floor, unchallenged, to fabricate reality. A free press in Syria is everything, we must maintain it.

Jesus this 🤡 He has to flounce his way out. Just leave, you won't be missed.

Today Stroud set up a place to chat and share Syrian joy www.instagram.com/reel/DDkOtGz...

The Syrian revolution started off as a bottom-up, working class uprising from the peripheries organised through local coordination committees. They set up local councils throughout the liberated areas that coordinated to provide services in the absence of a state. 🧵

The fall of the Assad regime is a turning point, but rebuilding — both personally and nationally — will take time. For Syrian refugees, this means navigating the complexities of the past while looking toward a brighter future. amplifystroud.com/2024-12-syria/

I didn't want to post the OP because of the violence in the video but @ramijarrah.bsky.social is right. If things are going to change then using the "master's tools" is not the way. I want to amplify Syrian voices of justice for Syrians not oppression and abuse.
