Imagine if American Longshoremen and dock workers around the world showed solidarity here. Why aren’t they? They could strangle Israel’s ability to agress/transgress. #BDS everywhere now!

Workers and unions everywhere should be doing this. Enough is enough. Shut it all down.
The new Lord of Zionist Genocide. The stench of corruption and moral bankruptcy is unbearable.
What is the latest on the Met's war crimes investigation? Seems like they are wasting resources attacking innocent people holding placards instead of focusing on the actual war criminals. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Zionists always accuse others of what they are. Zionists were partners with the Nazis in the 1930s so they have all definitely read Mein Kampf.
Mandla Mandela, Nelson Mandela’s grandson, affirms his position in joining the Global Sumud Flotilla that attempts to break the Israeli siege on Gaza.
Starmer would have partnered with Hitler in the 1930s/40s. Disgusting fraud. Remove him now.
Protests broke out in Qatar yesterday in denunciation of Israel’s breach of Qatari sovereignty and demanding retaliation.
Hollywood actors Cynthia Nixon and Morgan Spector join protest leader Mahmoud Khalil in Washington, D.C., urging Congress to pass the “Block the Bombs” bill, aiming to halt U.S. arms transfers to Israel.
These guys really have their heads screwed on right, for soulless TV characters.
plenty of things going against the right globally: Bolsonaro's conviction in Brazil, the defeat of the right wing in Norway's election, the student strikes and Saba Saba protests in Kenya (brutal as the repression there was), the EU's von der Leyen pursuing sanctions and trade suspension for Israel
there's a weird feedback loop where the media's reaction to kirk's death pushes you to speak more ill of the dead than you otherwise would because it's the only reasonable response to the simpering praise they're heaping on him
Honor Charlie Kirk by releasing the Epstein files. It’s what he wanted.
Alt-rightist kills alt-lightist, mourning nation demands left-wing accountability
waco, ruby ridge, and countless abortion clinic bombings and shootings notwithstanding.......
Charlie who? Look, a zebra!

Hey, Adam Sandler, please stop giving this dipshit bit parts in your movies. He needs medicated
Trump never takes responsibility and keeps blaming the other side for political violence. The truth is, his hateful rhetoric and divisive politics have done more damage to America than anyone else. Until he owns up to his role, unity will remain nothing but a dream.
In 2023, we won the Build Public Renewables Act — a groundbreaking law empowering NYS to speed up the clean energy transition and lower your bills with publicly-owned power. Today is the deadline to tell the New York Power Authority that we need a plan for 15 GW by 2030. Take urgent action below.
Oh, no! Don Everly, the surviving half of the Everly Brothers, has died at 84. I was lucky enough to see the Everly Brothers on their reunion tour in the early 80s. They put aside their grievances and put on an amazing show. Such harmonies … RIP, Don. apple.news/AlNcjAWBoRZa...
If you aren't a fascist sympathizer, build an anonymous persona and a public persona. It may actually save your life. This can help. Any other tips would be appreciated. The Sortition is always trying to improve its opsec. www.communistsortition.org/opsec
look we still have no idea what happened but all I'm saying is I think somebody should find out if someone can vouch for this guy's whereabouts yesterday www.wlox.com/story/296443...

i do not think it can be overstated at this point that we do not know who killed charlie kirk or why they did it.
These are the people telling you that political violence is wrong. What they really mean is that political violence against THEM is wrong.
“Kirk & I were on different sides of most political arguments. We were on the same side of the continued possibility of American politics.” So it’s personal? B/c if you were a Black woman or transgender, Kirk would not imagine you having any role in the future of American politics.
ezra klein is a leading voice on modern politics who doesn't fucking remember the violent aftermath of the 2020 election that was stoked by charlie kirk himself
Ezra Klein: Charlie Kirk Was Practicing Politics the Right Way Charlie Kirk: Jail every doctor who has treated transgender children. (Source: www.mediamatters.org/charlie-kirk...)
Charlie Kirk wasn't a lawyer or a doctor. He wasn't a teacher, a scientist, or an elected politician. He just breathed into a microphone and made a profitable career out of spreading hate, violence, and the death of Americans. This is who Trump glorifies while erasing our nation's real heroes.
"he was a son, a father, a husband, a friend," is also applicable to men in Palestine, in Congo, in Sudan, etc...
From European leaders to American media personalities, Zionism’s rationale is crumbling mondoweiss.net/2025/09/from...
NYT on the alleged messages on the shooter's weapon:
"the government is lying"
What's the wrong way?
Wild. The political murders of legislators in Minnesota were “killings.” The shooting of Kirk which cause is unknown is an “assassination.” They bend the knee without even being asked.
America’s return to greatness marches on.
welp! looking forward to another day of reasoned, thoughtful discourse!
Charlie Kirk was killed for saying things "that used to be simple common sense," says Boris Johnson. Here's a few of those things
I know the same people who were just celebrating drone striking a Venezuelan boat and parading the video around in triumph aren’t trying to give lessons about respect and decorum and all that shit. Surely not.
Only in America is the report of children being shot at school knocked out of the news by another shooting on the same day.
I'm hearing the FBI is looking for a man in Utah with a rifle, so they must have some really clear footage helping them narrow it down
i guess the real message is don't fuck around with etsy witches www.jezebel.com/we-paid-some...
Tomorrow, regularly scheduled Nazism will return.
This explains it better than I can
The more white wing media at the Times and the Post try to gaslight people about what Kirk stood for, the more social media accounts, and new media journalists will continue posting receipts.
As I said elsewhere today, “Violence has no place in America” is the Democrats’ “thoughts and prayers.” Just as knee-jerk. Just as vapid.
condemnations of political violence are well taken but it does feel as if some prominent political commentators are of the view that violence isn’t a part of the history of American politics and that is very much not true.
I sure am! 😡
Charlie Kirk was a private citizen Melissa Hortman was a seated lawmaker in MN No Flags were flown half staff at the WH for her death by gun violence
Fox News chuds and Democrats have no tears for little Palestinian girls, or the rest of humanity. Just rich white men and Israelis. Apparently.
"political violence is never acceptable," is a phrase you don't hear politicians say after cops beat the shit out of peaceful demonstrators
why is the foreign secretary of the united kingdom putting out a statement on this
NEW: "War is here" With no suspect in custody and no known motive, far-right influencers, right-wing commentators, extremists, militia leaders, conspiracists, and Republican lawmakers all responded to the assassination of #CharlieKirk by blaming the left. www.wired.com/story/far-ri...
It’s not considered political violence to round up people and put them in concentration camps. It’s not considered political violence to fund ethnic cleansing and genocide. Very interesting what’s considered political violence and deemed unacceptable.
RIP to a true and great hero www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/o...
I’m also not interested in litigating what is or isn’t “political violence” with people who willfully refuse to consider the quotidian violence that defines this country as political, or to entertain that the very idea of violence itself is ipso facto political. sorry but no thanks
Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."
Brad Lander at @jfrejnyc.bsky.social awards event: “I have not done enough to speak out against the ethnic cleansing and war crimes in Gaza.” He is here being honored along with @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social
using his death to raise money for yourself? what a great friend
Just imagine he was at a Yemeni wedding
You mean “should never.”
All politics and political parties aside,,, a very sad yet timely post just a few hours ago. Better gun protection laws are needed in this country. Everyone was sending their thoughts and prayers to Charlie Kirk and that didn’t help,,, RIP.
Wow 🤣
Very, very bad stuff coming from leading right-wingers
Submission, Sex Pistols youtu.be/BqS4rc6u4Jo?...
“I think it's worth it. It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal." - Charlie Kirk
"This kind of violence has no place in America" is the "thoughts and prayers" of the Democratic Party.
Sadly, the mass shooting at that school today is going to get swallowed up by the death of a man who had no sympathy for them.
Seems like the Democratic Party itself would be the biggest "traitor to democracy" by that logic
Today in #LaborHistory 9/10/1963: 20 black #children integrated into #Birmingham schools after nonviolent #directaction movement led by #MartinLutherKing & others. #Police used highwater cannons & attack dogs & racists tried to bomb #MLKJr.
yeah this is really important. the Declaration of Independence is a real document; you can read it. the Battle of Gettysburg was a real battle; you can go there. the Statue of Liberty is a real colossus, you can see her from downtown Manhattan. Race is fake.
Being a creep.
When I think of the youth of America, no one came faster to mind than Charlie Kirk, who really had his finger on the pulse, didn't he?
a lot of people on the right are going to be pretending to be concerned about guns and political violence today. as it happens, this was just published today about how the present administration is handling gun violence in DC during a hostile occupation it claims it is doing for "safety" reasons
Someone should come up with a better phrase than "Political violence has no place in America." America is based on political violence. Maybe just change the word "has" to "should have."
BIG news: A new bipartisan bill just dropped that would ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks. It’s about time. Voters shouldn’t have to wonder if their leaders are profiting off the decisions they make.
Him & Billy Ocean are about to drop the most soulful 80’s r$b album of all time.
Remember the Gaza Humanitarian Fund? The shady American nonprofit run by a Christian Nationalist that was given full control of food aid distribution sites in Gaza? Its parent organization GH solutions hired members of an American white supremacist biker gang to run security for the all the sites.
Not to mention the Holocaust, Gazan genocide, regime change in Iraq and Lybia and Chile and Iran, etc., etc., etc.
The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

Looking forward to an unsigned 6-3 decision to crash the economy with a “powerful dissent” and a concurrence that’s like “the thing about the president is that one of his specifically enumerated constitutional powers is economy crashing”
The disruption was led by group Codepink, who says on the act: “THEY FEAST WHILE GAZA STARVES.”
Le Népal a sombré en plein chaos, submergé par la colère de toute la population
Protestors chant FREE DC FREE PALESTINE TRUMP IS THE HITLER OF OUR TIME To Trump, Vance, and Hegseth
“Dear Baby Jesus, we beseech you, to still the tongues of the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his 'friend' and turn a blind eye if we are called upon to bear false witness—like denying identifiable signatures—as we unwelcome strangers, kill the sick, and take from the poor in your holy name. Glory!”
People confront Trump at a DC restaurant. He smiles at the camera as they chant “Free DC, free Palestine, Trump is the Hitler of our time.” Trump’s masked agents have snatched residents & he’s unconditionally backed Israel’s genocide of Gaza. Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, and JD Vance seen alongside.
Where do our rights come from? Believe it or not, the United States has been rolling back our rights for 40 years. The biggest expansion of the peoples' rights in American history actually occurred between 1953 and 1969, during the period of American history known as the "Warren Court." THREAD.
Anyway here it is
