Your friendly neighbourhood tankie. 23 They/Them. Pan. Autistic.

Look: is the West a conglomerate of fascist organs sucking the life out of the global south? Sure. & are these brutalities not abberations, but rather how the system maintains itself? Absolutely. & is this system unreformable & must be taken apart? Yes. I forgot where I was going with this.

Hands off Venuzela means hands off Cuba, Columbia, Iran, Somalia, Palestine, Yemen, Nigeria, fuckin Greenland - if you let ONE nation become an exception you let them ALL become targets for US imperialist pillage & ruin. Be angry & take it to a worthy space. Make them fear you as they should.

The fact that the pendulum *has* to swing the other way, what with the inherent instability of liberalism & fascism's fundamental inability to "fix" its issues, doesn't mean that we can wait until the tide turns to act.

Fucking murdering people is always just in the eyes of a Liberal, provided a piece of paper signed by an official says it is. Sure Liberals may hate *how* the fucking murder took place, but they will defend to *your* death the state's exclusive right to fucking murder you.

"I don't care that he's dead." "He's not a hero." "He's a scumbag." "He shouldn't be celebrated." No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd. Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

Thousands of people, kids too, are dead in no small part due to the kind of firearm policies & the culture of hate exhorted by Kirk,- to say nothing of his genocide apologia. The fact that international liberal "leadership" is falling over itself to project mourning for this bigot is perverse.

aight new one of these whips ass. really good all the way through. first one that didn't feel like a hype moments and aura compilation, performances were INCREDIBLE, almost felt like it had something relevant to say please just throw your money into this WE WANT THE FULL ANIME

Transphobia actively derails all movements towards liberation. I remember hearing a story about a communist party in my country where a 2 hour seminar on womens liberation turned into a 100 minute rant when the speaker refused to acknowledge that trans women experience misogyny.

Heads up! The EHRC are rewriting the Statutory Code of Practice to the Equality Act in a way that seriously waters down protections for 🏳️‍⚧️ folk. Below is a 🧵 of the most egregious examples I’ve found. Please help fight this by responding to the EHRC consultation—full details at the end of thread. 1/

Chapter 4 
This chapter no longer includes any worked examples of direct discrimination against a trans person.
Gender reassignment is the only one of the eight protected characteristic covered by this draft Code not to be given a worked example in Chapter 4.
Please include at least one example of direct discrimination against a trans person in Chapter 4 of any updated Code of Practice. 



Chapter 5
There are no worked examples in this section showing indirect discrimination towards a trans person.
Taken together, this means that in this draft Code of Practice, there are no worked examples involving trans people for: direct discrimination (Chapter 4), indirect discrimination (Chapter 5), harassment (Chapter 8), victimisation (Chapter 9), positive action (Chapter 10), services and public functions (Chapter 11), or associations (Chapter 12). 
Please include examples involving trans people in at least some of these chapters.
