Greenland is an autonomous territory in the Kingdom of Denmark. Any changes to that status are for Greenlanders and Danes alone to decide. (1/2)

Life under occupation & apartheid.
Israeli forces are demolishing a residential building in occupied East Jerusalem that was home to around 100 Palestinians. The Palestinians were attacked by Israeli settlers as they were forced from their homes.

Fwiw I think the “apologize for being white” thing is very clearly about making sure white people don’t feel an obligation to alleviate past injustices or make society fairer. Ultimately to do that you have to raise taxes and the billionaires holding Vance’s leash don’t want that.

Ben Shapiro is a notorious genocidal racist who spews vile lies about Palestinians and Black people. He gleefully profits off murderous fascist rhetoric but was too stupid to consider where his efforts were leading, and doesn't like it up him. So what's your next act, pal? What have you got now?
Candace Owens held up an English translation of August Rohling’s „der Talmudjude“ and repeated its antisemitic lies to her millions of listeners in her attack on Ben Shapiro. Rohling was a notorious Catholic antisemite who spewed vile lies and about Jews and the Talmud. This is incredibly dangerous.

So, just to confirm, the BBC can’t keep Robin Ince on the air because his trans allyship brings the organisation into disrepute, but they can keep David Walliams, who performed Nazi salutes at the recording of this very show, on the air despite him being predatory towards women. Cool. Very normal.

The Gaza Strip is less than one tenth the size of County Tipperary. There are about 2 million people crammed in there. Blockaded. With little food, shelter or medicine. Imagine a narrow strip of land from Thurles to Clonmel. That is the size of Gaza.
