I know you've seen me push this video constantly the past week or so, but I honestly do feel like it is that important.

If you haven't seen it yet, I humbly request that you please take 7 minutes out of your day and listen to what Tom Morello has to say.

It is very relevant right now.

CyKoore 🇨🇦 🍉 @cykoore.bsky.social · Feb 5

This man is an honors grad of Political Science from Harvard University, and he gave one of the best speeches of our generation back in November 2023.

This video is under 7 minutes long.

You NEED to watch this.

"Americans would use “salami tactics.” Taking slices Canadian sovereignty and independence at a time. The first steps would not be tanks rolling across the border, but the Canadian government allowing, or being forced to allow organizations like the US Marshalls or the FBI to operate inside Canada."

New from Avant Garde Press: Canadian Salami

"Recently, an article was published by ‘The Conversation’ about the potential of an American invasion and Canadian insurgency....It’s time to examine the issue of the Canadian resistance to American invasion."

Israel is launching a massive bombing campaign in the hours before the ceasefire is due to start while Palestinians are in the streets celebrating.

Israel always ramps up bombing campaigns prior to a ceasefire.

It's fucking twisted.

BREAKING: Israel’s government just approved the first phase of the ceasefire deal and a ceasefire is supposed to go into effect immediately.

Israel killed at least 29 Palestinians today, according to Al Jazeera.

CNN headline: Israeli government approves Gaza ceasefire resolution

CNN article screenshot reads: Where things stand
• JUST IN: Israel's government has approved the US-brokered Gaza ceasefire and hostage release resolution, according to the prime minister's office. Officials have said the ceasefire will take effect
immediately.
• US presence: The United States is sending 200 troops to be on the ground to monitor the plan's implementation, a senior US official said. "No US troops are intended to go into Gaza," another official said.

Al Jazeera update reads: Four killed al-Sabra attack, bringing day's death toll to 29: Wafa

The Palestinian news agency has reported that four people have been killed in the Israeli attack we've been reporting in the Sabra neighbourhood in Gaza City.
That brings the day's death toll in Gaza to 29, according to the news agency, despite the ceasefire breakthroughs.

...they could not pay. They had the same cancer as me, they were women the same age as me (30) the left behind husbands, children, families, lives unlived, and great big piles of debt. I got timely access, I got proper treatment. And I didn't pay a $. America is inhumane.

He really was, and I'm glad you got to meet him, even if it was brief.

CyKoore 🇨🇦 🍉 @cykoore.bsky.social · 23h

He would have turned 50 today.

I miss him so much.

CyKoore 🇨🇦 🍉 @cykoore.bsky.social · 2d

My friend died this year, with medical debt to the tune of $2,800,000+.

He had insurance through his job.

He got cancer.

He lost his job/insurance due to his treatments.

He couldn't afford insurance because he lost his job.

There is no way your average person can afford these new rates.

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

CBS reports ICE agents have repeatedly made fake 911 calls. Each time, police found no threat. In Illinois, that’s a felony.

History is written by those who refuse to go home.

Nothing changes until you make it impossible for things to go on as they were.

Do what you can.

Take to the streets. Block the roads. Fill the squares.

This isn't a protest. It's a refusal.

General strike. Mass defiance.

If you were waiting for permission, this is it.

Nothing changes until you make it impossible to ignore.

Now is the time to flood the streets. Not tomorrow. Not when it’s safer. Now.

Sustained, massive disruption is the only language.

Shut it down. All of it.

Yep.

Peaceful protests every month and a half just don't cut it.

The US needs France-level disruption.

I heavily promoted the 50501/No Kings protests at the start of this administration.

I can no longer in good faith support this movement. Scheduled protests have not been the answer for a long time now.

You need sustained pressure, and it's not happening.
