If you have a platform, you have a responsibility (… I think Spider-Man’s uncle said that)

Doechii showed the way! Use your voices please 🙏🏼 We see you when you do, and when you don’t.
With the BET Awards happening in downtown LA, I was wondering who was going to say something first. Doechii really is that girl.

Indefensible parroting of propaganda from @lbc.co.uk
We absolutely agree with Cunningham here (too)
Absolutely revolting of LBC 🤬🤬🤬🤬

“It has been organising flotillas since 2010 with the aim of breaking the Israeli maritime blockade on Gaza.”

Such a vital point. Israel’s blockade did not start on October 7th.

All eyes on the Madleen! ⛵️

“… they should be doing more. For years, Israel’s European allies have turned a blind eye to the illegal settler expansion. They still, inexplicably, import goods from settlements.”

Enact the Full Occupied Territories Bill before summer recess!

Every week hundreds of people across the country stand together in solidarity with Palestine. When everything feels futile, these people showing up week after week give me a lot of hope.
I’ve heard an argument that passing the OTB would be gesture politics. In the face of genocide, gestures matter 🇵🇸

“Like two mams in a local Facebook group” is the most accurate description of what’s happening politically 🇺🇸 that I’ve heard all day. Nails it.
I’m going to need all the pol corrs and commentators with their serious takes to fuck off. These two are going off like two mams in a local Facebook group. I don’t need a political digest of what this means for trumps legacy or whatever.

On Thurs 12th June at 10.15pm RTE intend to show Louis Theroux's documentary The Settlers, unless it is pulled before then. For those who can still record, do that. For anyone streaming, it will be available on the RTE Player. We will share a reminder closer to the date also.

It is vital that all eyes are on the freedom flotilla, and the impending reaction is witnessed by those arming and abetting the genocidal state.

The system isn’t broken, it’s doing exactly what it’s been designed to do. It’s just that design is not aimed most of us, but at enriching the few 💰

The system has to change.
Rented for 2500/month in 2020, nothing moved in, vacant for 5 years.

Building then sold for over a million.

Now asking 3700/month.

How are people supposed to create any community in all this madness?

I work from home, but will join this national moment of reflection at 1.05pm today 🇵🇸
Please take a moment today with your colleagues to reflect on what is happening, what is being done with our consent, and how we can make a change.

We need to take our responsibility to the future seriously.

Every TD that voted against this bill is complicit in funding genocide
