✊🏾 Face à la haine, refusons le silence et l’indifférence ! 🗣️ « Nous savions que les mots de la haine finiraient par tuer. » Je salue avec force cette tribune publiée par Politis, qui, à la suite du meurtre de Pengo Bossio Wangi, 26 ans, à Trappes, nous alerte sur la banalisation des discours racistes et sur la responsabilité collective face à la montée de la haine. Les mots ne sont jamais anodins lorsqu’ils alimentent le mépris, la stigmatisation et la déshumanisation. Lorsque le racisme s’installe dans le débat public et que la haine se banalise, nous avons toutes et tous le devoir de réagir. Les médias, les responsables politiques et chaque citoyenne et citoyen ont une responsabilité dans la défense de la dignité humaine et du vivre-ensemble. Face à cette réalité, nous ne pouvons ni nous taire, ni détourner le regard, ni nous habituer à l’inacceptable. C’est pourquoi je salue également l’initiative de la commune de Saint-Denis / Pierrefitte-sur-Seine, qui organise un rassemblement : 📅 Mercredi 28 octobre 🕠 À 17h30 📍 Sur le parvis de la mairie de Saint Denis 2 place de Caquet 93200 Saint Denis Toutes et tous sont invités à se mobiliser ! Soyons nombreux et nombreuses pour dénoncer le racisme, condamner les discours de haine et affirmer notre attachement aux valeurs de liberté, d’égalité, de fraternité et de solidarité. La mort de Pengo Bossio Wangi nous rappelle tragiquement que la lutte contre le racisme n’est pas une option, mais une exigence humaine et démocratique. Notre présence compte. Nos voix comptent. Notre solidarité compte. Ne laissons pas la haine gagner du terrain. Unissons-nous pour défendre une société plus juste, plus fraternelle et plus humaine. ✊🏾 Contre le racisme, contre la haine, contre l’indifférence : soyons au rendez-vous ! #ContreLeRacisme #ContreLaHaine #Solidarité #DignitéHumaine #SaintDenis #PierrefitteSurSeine

A message to those who still believe that it all started on October 7. No, it didn't. A 'managed genocide', to keep 1.5 million Palestinians "on the edge of life" was in force years before. Read the latest report by Eyal Weizman: "A military document called ‘Red Lines’ set the minimum number of calories required to sustain Gaza’s population at a level just above the UN definition of hunger (2100 calories a day for men, 1700 for women and a varying amount for children depending on gender and age). The total number of calories was translated into the tonnage required to feed Gaza’s then population of 1.5 million and thus the number of aid trucks allowed into the territory. The same went for megawatts of electricity and litres of fuel and water. What was seen as good behaviour was rewarded by an increase in the amounts coming in, any acts of resistance by the tightening of the siege, like a population-scale version of a Milgram experiment." lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v48/n20/…

Whoever said the 2028 Democratic presidential candidate should run on extraditing Zuckerberg to Lula’s Brazil deserves an award.
President Lula states that he will "go all out" against Meta, saying that Brazil will not accept a foreign company negatively influencing Brazilians and humanity with a "digital empire."

Nous avons besoin de plus de professeurs. Notre seule richesse, en France, c’est la matière grise. Si la France recule dans l’art d’enseigner à sa jeune génération, nous serons rayés de la carte. Nous créerons autant de places que nécessaire pour élever le niveau d’éducation de notre peuple.

Who is running what? Seems like Palantir are running things & the government just rubber stamps it, with a Labour Lord head of PR to explain away this corrupt reality. We are a captured state, captured by, amongst others, the most murderous tech company yet created, helmed by a South African racist, someone who appears to be in a perpetual state of psychotic mania & the grandson of a notorious fascist
It is beyond ridiculous that this man is still a life peer and retains the Labour whip.

Labour's 2024 Manifesto said that it was 'discriminatory' to have different minimum wage rates for younger and older workers. They pledged to abolish 'discriminatory age bands.' Healey has reneged - and Labour has now broken another promise. Stupid, short-sighted stuff.
Labour now briefing young people won't get the same minimum wage uplift. Even Starmer didn't break this pledge. Workers rights mean same rights, pay & conditions, same rate for the same job. What does this Labour government have against young people? inews.co.uk/news/politics/mi…

Remembering during the 2018-19 years under Corbyn's leadership, the mantra was #BlockDontBicker. That really does have to be the mantra of the entire Left now, if we are to beat the fascists. Don't engage. Don't boost. Don't reply. Organise, and educate from the Left online.
Aos nossos amigos franceses, a internet será um grande aliado de vocês. NÃO interajam com a direita, não dê engajamento a eles. Foquem em divulgar sobre Mélenchon, criem grupos e comunidades, espalhem panfletos informativos e mantenham-se unidos, não importa o que aconteça.

Vive Lula, vive le Brésil de la dignité. Les sondages et les commentateurs experts bla bla prédisaient son échec certain. Il vient de gagner ! Il a battu l'extrême droite et les ingérences étrangères. La magnifique campagne de masse a rassemblé le peuple des favelas et les salariés dans les urnes contre la dictature de l'argent-roi et du mépris du peuple.

Criticising her opinion is antisemitic, according to our political and media classes.
"Carpet bomb them all". Speaking to The Guardian at an event ahead of Israel’s elections, a young Israeli woman called for Palestinians to be forcibly displaced from the Gaza Strip, saying they should be killed if they cannot be removed.

Preet Kaur Gill worked as a social worker on a kibbutz in Israel. She has visited Israel on many occasions and lived there. She is a member of Labour Friends of Israel (LFI). She has defended Zionism against claims equating it with racism. She has been noted for not signing certain letters calling for sanctions, arms-sale suspension, or ICC warrants against Israeli officials, and for abstaining/being absent on some ceasefire or BDS-related votes. She voted in favour of proscribing Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation.

À huis clos, ni le 1er ministre, ni les responsables du renseignement intérieur, ni les responsables des forces de sécurité intérieure n’attribuent à La France insoumise une responsabilité dans les violences. Pourtant, sur les plateaux télé, ils tiennent un double discours.

À Orléans, une foule ahurie et abrutie de haine applaudit au congrès du RN n'importe quelle banalité au même plan que les plus stupides mots d'ordre de bagarre de rue. Je les remercie d'avoir hué mon nom et insulté la nouvelle France. Le futur du pays se fera malgré vous ! Il se fera parce que c'est le choix de la vie contre la mort de l'esprit et de la fraternité.

Je mets BFM face à ses responsabilités : ils ont invité Zemmour et ne l’ont pas contredit quand il a parlé de «racailles arabo-musulmanes» le 17 octobre. 5 jours plus tard, le terroriste raciste de Trappes a voulu «venger les commerçants pillés» en ciblant des «Noirs et Arabes».

Le terroriste raciste negrophobe et islamophobe de Trappes voulait tuer des Noirs et des Arabes. Selon ses proches, il reliait tout à l'immigration, « comme Zemmour, Le Pen ou Praud ». Pengo est mort parce qu’il était noir. À celles et ceux qui font de la haine leur seul fonds de commerce : combien de morts encore ?
« Pour lui, tout était à cause des Noirs et des Arabes » : quatre amis de Kevin T., auteur de l’attentat de Trappes, se sont confiés à Mediapart. Ils décrivent un trentenaire en « détresse », dont la haine a été alimentée par les discours racistes à la télévision. mediapart.fr/journal/france/…

Hey @robertshrimsley here’s a Jew who has actually read the report which states that while anti-Jewish attitudes (abhorrent as they are) ‘are less prevalent & have remained stable’ anti-Israel sentiments ‘are more prevalent & have been increasing.’ The methodological weaknesses of some aspects of the report are also indisputable, as anyone who has done any meaningful research would attest. But we won’t let this reality mitigate your & the establishment’s hysteria & your shameful attacks on @owenjonesjourno & others. We live in a world of lies constructed by our mendacious politicians, corporate leaders & facilitated by the woeful mainstream media, which has long abandoned its crucial role in holding power to account.
Relax jews. Owen Jones has decided there’s no antisemitism to worry about in schools. Such a relief we have had him these last years to explain why things that look like antisemitism aren’t. What a mensch

This morning, as @SkyNews lionised Marine Le Pen at her RN speech, they mentioned so quickly you could barely notice it that there had been "some protests" at the event, before quickly moving on to other aspects, including Bardella. The "protests" were from France's Jewish Student's Movement, because Bardella has recently been all over the news because of some seriously antisemitic social media posts a few years ago. Can you imagine for a minute if the Jewish Student's Union protested at either a Labour or Green event, or if these student protesters had been at an LFI event in France? We wouldn't hear the end of it for days, weeks even. But the Far Right in both countries seem to get a free pass on actual Jew hate (as opposed to simply attacking Israel) every damn time.

Sorry. I am too busy stabbing myself in the eye with a rusty fork.
It’s time to rejoin the Labour Party. Please rejoin/join Labour & Momentum to defeat Reform, help determine the direction of Burnham’s Labour Party and build a socialist force in British politics.

He sounds like a neo-Nazi @piersmorgan, not sure how you can continue to feign outrage over that description. What else would you call your pal’s rhetoric here? It’s pure white supremacist, Neo-Nazi racism.
Trump: "Somalia -- 98% of the people here now from Somalia don't work. They don't have to work because they steal so much. They all have a Mercedes Benz. Low IQ and they live better than you do."
