Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others. Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla: “People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.” 1/3

How to record ICE: 1) Record from a safe distance. DO NOT INTERVENE. 2) Put the DATE, TIME, & LOCATION on the video. 3) Ask for NAMES & BIRTHDAYS 4) CONTEXT, how many people were taken? What happened? How? 5) If possible, document vehicles used and agents, even if masked. @eltragon.bsky.social

Emoción y admiración absolutas. Salieron los barcos de la Global Sumud Flotilla desde Barcelona a Palestina.

Sunscreen Does Not Work, Says Study That Made Participants Drink It

Air Filtration Doesn’t Work To Prevent Illness Says Study Done By People Who Didn’t Switch The Air Filters On Properly

"I don’t know how to convince everyone that we can’t give up. So many people consider COVID to be endemic, or accept that everyone will eventually become infected, thinking nothing more can be done... but I know a better world is possible and we will move forward together."

We asked people who experienced "sweeps" of homeless encampments to write about it in their own words. In Portland, Teresa Stratton told us about how her husband’s ashes were taken in a removal:

By this point you’ve probably seen The Guardian headline: “What do we know about the COVID-19 virus five years on?” but as you may be too busy to read the article, allow me to summarize it: what we know about this virus five years on is you should try not to catch or spread it.

I want to thank Professor Caravello for trying to protect a disabled immigrant who had a canister of tear gas thrown under his wheelchair. He was piled on, tackled and arrested for trying to do the right thing. He refused to see this person as expendable, and that makes him a hero.

Chilling observation from (at) #leftist.reacts on 🕰️ app. #ItsAllConnected #Solidarity #StrongerTogether #WeProtectUs #WeKeepUsSafe

One of the perks of being Covid-Conscious is I never have to lay awake at night wondering if I gave someone an infection that disabled or killed them. I sleep with a clear conscience because I act like a responsible, grown-ass adult & mask in public. Imagine if we all cared enough to do that.

Sad truth: they are indeed trying to use the **exact same** playbook to manufacture consent for this war. Uplifting truth: there wasn't social media then. Public response to this is SO MUCH different than back then. Don't underestimate how important it is that they can't control the narrative now.

Masks are under serious threat at being banned widely due to politicization. This would be a public health disaster. If you are only wearing a mask at protests, please consider also wearing them elsewhere. The more people mask, the more we normalize masks and protect them against bans.

While protesting on June 14, do you have to give your ID to police? Which states let drivers run over protestors? Trump is clear he does not respect the right to peaceful protest, so be ready. Here are 13 tips to protect yourself and your loved ones. No Paywall. www.qasimrashid.com/p/13-rules-t...

I made a long video about the "someone's got to do it" memes, where they came from, what they're really saying, and what these posts reveal about collective trauma, political cynicism, our decaying faith in democratic institutions and so so much more. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXrj...

All violence, all injustice, all oppression is interlinked. How we treat nonhuman animals sets the lower boundary for how we treat each other. The more cruelly we treat non-humans, the more terrible a weapon dehumanization is.

Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge). You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant *no matter what the ICE officer says.*
