If all women have equal rights AGAIN, all kind of discrimination, war, global warming, environmental destruction, exploitation of nature, and slavery have disappeared, all citizens have secure, decent food, housing, health insurance, pension, free access to public transport, etc., then the prerequisites are created that all people can finally LOVE AND BE LOVED freely, lustfully, tenderly, carefree, with impunity, because THIS makes us humans.

Every summer, the Faroe Islands’ beaches are soaked with whale and dolphin blood as hundreds of these creatures are slaughtered, including protected species. Iceland has just banned whale hunting. Let's get the Faroe islands to do the same! https://share.eko.org/810335761t?referring_akid=124232.2342095.fvA9QX&referring_source=fwd

@StillIRise1963 it always takes a catastrophe for humans to get off their collective asses and do something. This time it may be too late.

Great Wired read about a Wikipedia editor who's making sure that no one gets away with Nazi reputation-laundering. https://getpocket.com/explore/item/one-woman-s-mission-to-rewrite-nazi-history-on-wikipedia?utm_source=pocket-newtab

"...history is an edit war. Truth, factual and moral, hangs in the balance."

Ksenia Coffman’s fellow editors have called her a vandal and a McCarthyist. She just wants them to stop glorifying fascists—and start citing better sources.

@ct_bergstrom Nordic countries don't want to extradite prisoners to the US because of our inhumane prisons.
Exactly this, this all day. And now millions of positive things will never happen because Elon had the power to shit all over the platform formerly known as Twitter. Text by Ryan Broderick.

Border patrol treatment of migrants is bad in Texas. It's bad in Arizona too. The humanitarian aid groups mentioned are the ones I work with when I am there during the rest of the year.

No matter what you think about current immigration policy or what it should be, you have to be a monster to think treating human beings this way is OK.

Edit to add: please tag any journalists you know who work on border issues. We would like to get this out far and wide to put pressure on Border Patrol to end this practice before someone dies.

At some point even the most ardent #capitalists may realise that consumers are unlikely to spend much when their house is on fire & or is under water....

But by then, it's going to be a bit late to come over all #green!

What the #fires in #Greece, #Canada & elsewhere tell us is essentially we've run out of time... and the #climatecrisis is shifting into its adjustment phase, where nature is going to require us to change our lifestyles, like it or not!

But hey, there's alway #carboncapture!

The leader of the German conservatives introduced the idea to collaborate with the far right AfD yesterday. He knows that he won’t get kicked out or replaced as the party leader. He will paddle back a bit after some backlash and that’s it. It doesn’t matter that he just meant on a community level either. The idea to collaborate with Nazis is now officially speakable without consequences. I feel sick!!
