SUPPORTING PALESTINE (@apirus.bsky.social) reposted
Photographer, sweary socialist. Centrist government is pro-genocide (the "Moderates"). Their political economy is failing & there's no "Plan-B". Only socialism & global co-operation can save humanity & the planet. Trans right = human rights #BDS

This week a minister suggested imprisoning people, who have not been convicted or indeed *accused* of a crime, in *warehouses*. I think that qualifies as far right, but whatever words we choose to use it's certainly true that any decent person will agree they're fucking awful and need to be fought.

"I'm comfortable with being ruthless" - Starmer (Daily Telegraph)
@raystonian (@stonia2.bsky.social) reply parent
What I learned from the last US election ... that right wing Labour cunts like Starmer would rush to kiss the ring & stroke the ego like a good 'moderate'. Most of my life has seen tory govt. From Thatcher to Blair to Johnson (centrists worked very hard for that one) & now Starmer. Wall2wall shit.

You don’t find “common ground” with fascists. You build power to defeat them. This is the main reason why I believe fascism at the Federal level in the US will last generations.

@raystonian (@stonia2.bsky.social) reply parent
You're right. My reaction was not properly thought out. It is not my own lived experience and I do see trans rights as human rights. I can however fully see this being a wedge issue used against the left like antisemitism was against the left under Corbyn's leadership of Labour.
@raystonian (@stonia2.bsky.social) reply parent

100% true. And recently genocide scholars have declared Gaza a genocide but not Lammy or Starmer. No. They are offering RAF planes for war crime targeting and refuels. Israeli generals invited for secret meetings to UK. There will be a reckoning and we will ensure it.
@raystonian (@stonia2.bsky.social) reply parent
And Labour has entwined UK military with Israeli genocide. Concretely. There is no coming back from that and there will be a reckoning.
@raystonian (@stonia2.bsky.social) reply parent
Labour is doing the same. They want to wear the clothes of Reform whilst at the same time sending weird Starmerroids out to say "Look, I know Labour got some things wrong but do you prefer the tories?". This Labour party is in the same cess pit as Reform willingly.

OK and you keep on talking in weird clichés. Labour bangs the ideological drum for the far right and for genociders in Israel, their paymasters. Enjoy their demise.
@raystonian (@stonia2.bsky.social) reply parent
Labour leaders' own words and actions are terrible. I see them as no different than the tories or their more extreme wing: Reform. Labour is not detached from that political cess pit. These people would prefer a right wing dictatorship over a fair society all day.
@raystonian (@stonia2.bsky.social) reply parent
The time is ripe for a new approach but the liberals will 100% be ineffective against fascist dictatorship. They would prefer it every time over a fair society and equality of opportunity (or a political economy that favours them and their lives).
@raystonian (@stonia2.bsky.social) reply parent

@raystonian (@stonia2.bsky.social) reply parent
To be clear: Trump is a fascist cunt in the mould of Mussolini and he was enabled by the hapless Democrats (JOY!!). This is happening all across the world as the neoliberal governments have no answer to a failing political economy.
@raystonian (@stonia2.bsky.social)
Genocide scholars call it genocide but Lammy and Starmer won't because they are Israel's triumph in the English parliament. "It might have taken far too long, but the declaration from the IAGS matters because it makes it much harder for organisations like the BBC to pretend this is not a genocide."
