'Betty Lachgar is in prison...not because she harmed anyone, but because of her t-shirt. For that, she is being persecuted and prosecuted, whilst those who threatened her with rape and death walk free.' - @maryamnamazie.bsky.social on Betty's plight. #FreeBetty freethinker.co.uk/2025/09/free...

On #blasphemyDay stand with Ibtissame Betty Lachgar unjustly imprisoned in #Morocco for a t-shirt. Whilst blasphemy laws claim to defend public/religious 'morality,' they in fact protect state & reinforce patriarchal control. #FreeBetty whose only 'crime' is to speak truth to power.

I stand with @IbtissameBetty against scandalous 2.5 year prison sentence in #Morocco for 'Allah is Lesbian' t-shirt taken in London. She has been jailed for 30 months for "Insulting Islam". Why is it an insult for God to be a woman or lesbian? #FreeBetty www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQaU...

Watch this whole video, then join the Green Party so that you can vote for Zack to be our next leader. This is the left leadership we need.

I’m not member of Green Party or any party - I do tactical voting to keep rightwing out from no other choice. I can’t believe in system that feigns to represent ‘the people’ but really represents the ruling class. Labour today is an example. But it feels good to hear someone speak the damn truth.

A really important film, exposing a growing issue in the UK. Sadly, 'witchcraft' accusations aren't a thing of the past - they're happening to thousands of children across the country every year.

'The journalist killed has been named as Ismail Abu Hatab, a photographer who was previously wounded in 2023 while covering the war. He’s the 186th Palestinian journalist killed since the war began.' metro.co.uk/2025/06/30/i...

This is objectively nuts but impartial ‘news’ currently lacks any metric to express that one ‘wrong’ newsworthy thing is several billion times worse than another.

It's morally bankrupt to defend one authoritarian regime over another. A clip of Maryam Namazie's interview with Joy of Resistance. #Iran #US
