But, at some point you have to make these protests/marches more intent, more aggressive, more challenging. March in your tens of thousands to appropriate addresses, like 1CE facilities, like Capital Buildings, surround them & fight for your Country. Because so far nothing is slowing down or stopping

According to @rooster.info, during a Zoom meeting today, he had an American nazi flag displayed in the background.

Greta Thunberg was beaten and tortured by the Israelis. They learned how to call her a whore in Swedish, and forced her to wear the Israeli flag.

The Swedish foreign ministry abandoned its citizens in Israel, and downplayed what they went through.

www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/a/25...

Beating, kicking, and threats of being
gassed in cages. Greta Thunberg and several others from the flotilla are now sharing details about their five days in Israeli captivity - and how Swedish Foreign Ministry staff left
them without help. Aftonbladet's investigation shows how the Foreign Ministry downplayed the
abuse in its communications. Her red suitcase lies in the hall. "Whore Greta"
someone has written in large black letters. Around the text: an Israeli flag and an erect
penis. The bag was confiscated by the Israeli military from the boat - and returned to her like this. She
laughs.
- They're like five-year-olds!

- They dragged me to the opposite side from where the others were sitting, and I had the flag around me the whole time. They hit and kicked me.
Greta laughs.
- Then they ripped off my frog hat, threw it on the ground, stomped and kicked it, and kind of threw a tantrum.
- They moved me very brutally to a corner that I was turned towards. 'A special place for a special lady', they said. And then they had learned 'Lilla hora' (Little whore) and 'Hora Greta' (Whore Greta) in Swedish, which they repeated all the time.

The neighbouring nations should be flooding Gaza's coast with vessels full of food & medicines & troops to protect them.

I can't stress enough how young staffers working for Republicans are basically all groyper Nazis now. The leaked texts yesterday saying "I love Hitler" and now swastikas on congressional offices.

I see loads of people more interested in filming it rather than doing something. Put your fuckin phones down & do something FFS.

David O @dmoscotia.bsky.social · 1d

Seriously America, you don't have to all stand around filming it. Do something about this FFS. Its getting embarrassing now.

David O @dmoscotia.bsky.social · 1d

Also, she does not fit the look or have a name that many American's recognize as American. Its a racist islamaphobic Country, aswell as stupid.

Agent lobs a gas canister into a residential neighborhood in Illinois for no discernible reason, gassing dozens of neighbors including a baby. The comfort with which they deploy weapons of war is unreal.

We’ve met with Greta Thunberg and others in the flotilla. They describe hours-long scenes of torture and sexual harassment in Israeli captivity. Experts conclude that they have been subjected to serious crimes – Sweden’s foreign minister believes they have themselves to blame.

I wonder if Canadian Newspapers write in their articles like this, do you think they report things as happening "north of the border", i doubt, surely they just write "in Canada".

“Highland cattle are peculiarly liable to be taken, or infected, by spells and witchcraft, which judicious people guard against by knitting knots of peculiar complexity on the tuft of hair which terminates the animal’s tail.”

—Sir Walter Scott, “The Two Drovers”
#WyrdWednesday

A windswept and interesting Highland cow, standing on a ridge of coarse grassy tussocks against a blue sky with white clouds. The cow has a coat of long, shaggy, reddish-brown hair, and two long upswept horns. The cow's hairy coat is being blown to the side by a stiff breeze, and its long hairy tail looks as if it's being blown that way too.
