It seems that those “progressive except Palestine” types are now adopting far-right stances because of Zionism.
These so-called “road widening” projects in my country (which happens to be a former US colony) are yet another symptom of carbrain.
Having spent most of my working life in transport policy, this is the essential truth that so many people - including politicians with responsibility for transport decisions - don’t or won’t get.

To reduce congestion, you reduce capacity and reduce speed. The empirical evidence is overwhelming.
If you widen that highway

you won’t reduce emissions

or congestion.

What you WILL do

is spend a lot of public money

to induce even more cars

emitting even more GHGs and pollution

in the same or worse congestion

with people still demanding that you widen the highway.

Period.

Don't forget that the United States is still heavily involved in a colonial relationship with the Philippines and against Moro Muslims there.
In 1898, the United States annexed the Philippines. Filipinos were not consulted and didn't consent, but the Spanish said the Philippines belonged to us as part of the treaty ending the Spanish American War (which the US started),

Societal structure and power favors you as someone who is white. You can experience bias and prejudice, but you certainly don't experience racism.

If you want to talk about having solid arguments on social imperatives, do your homework.

“SecureBordersUK” is if U.S. ICE went on TikTok to document their atrocities, albeit from across the Atlantic.

This is what I meant with “it could happen anywhere” because we are all affected and everything is intersectional.

Abolish ICE! ¡Abolir el ICE! Ibasura ang ICE! Aboli ICE! Bãi bỏ ICE! ICE를 폐지하라! ألغوا ICE!

First they came for the Palestinians, but I did not speak out because I was not Palestinian.
Then they came for the Venezuelans, but I did not speak out because I was not Venezuelan.
Then they came for their own people, but I did not speak out because I was not American.

Then they came for us! 😔

ICE’s summary executions of US citizens demands international solidarity because, who knows, this could happen to you in your country.

Yes, it can and does happen in Europe. Far too many countries are just one step away from the US.
Several thousand people protested in Paris Sunday over the death in custody of a Mauritanian immigrant worker, yelling slogans against "a police force that kills us", an AFP journalist saw.

This is the exact same garbage Chinese state media and Western tankies were peddling about Hong Kong in 2019.

The fact people can autonomously band together, pool resources, rally donations, and organise is truly unthinkable to some folks. Just because you couldn't do it doesn't mean others can't.
I mostly just stay off Twitter altogether but after double checking that the Walter Hudson post was still up I ran across this and just had to share so the Romancelandians who bought hand warmers could hear about the PROFESSIONAL GRADE LOGISTICS.

There's a saying in Chinese, repeated often during the 2019 HK protest:

世上沒有從天而降的英雄, 只有挺身而出的凡人

"There are no heaven-sent heroes in this world. There are only ordinary people who choose to show extraordinary courage."

That's Minnesota today. And Iran.

The US Holocaust Museum being more outraged by Tim Walz saying that, like Anne Frank, children today are in hiding from armed agents of the state, than they are about the fact that children are in hiding from armed agents of the state, is why Holocaust remembrance culture is in crisis.

maga asians, especially filipinos, your self-perceived adjacency to whiteness isn’t going to protect you from ice/cbp. neither your politics, citizenship, first responder occupation, military service, nor your white spouse will help. doesn’t matter how much you comply or how many boots you lick.

I see that Iranians are getting acquainted with the segment of the western left that believes that only massacres committed by US allies are bad.

The way they're gaslighting victims while criticizing those who were doing the same elsewhere...Exactly the same as their right-winger counterparts.

Why hasn’t the Wikipedia page for sportswashing been updated to include the 2026 FIFA World Cup and the 2028 Summer Olympics, both under a second Trump administration?
Looked up at the Wikipedia entry for sportswashing. Not a single mention of Donald Trump or the 2026 World Cup and the 2028 Summer Olympics under his administration.

Ferdinand Marcos in the Philippines is the best example of what dictatorship in our system looks like and how to counter it. Remember, the Philippines constitution was a copy-paste of the US constitution.
genuinely kind of fascinating that Ventura of all people is making an extremely lucid comparison of Trump to Marcos
Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: “We’re a 3rd world country now. I know. I’ve been to ‘em. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golf… that’s what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. That’s what’s happening here.” 🇺🇸

Don’t forget to boycott the 2028 Summer Olympics in LA and all US games at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Reasons to boycott Paris 2024 (and potentially future editions of the Olympics):
1. Israel and its genocide against Palestinians
2. Russia and its ally Belarus competing as “neutral” to cover up their genocide against Ukrainians

Much like the US boycotting the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow to protest the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, I pray that European and other nations will boycott the upcoming 2026 World Cup and 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles to protest the long list including Minneapolis, Venezuela, Greenland…
To be transparent 😁: selfishly I rather have all #MUFC players away from the World Cup (so they can get much deserved vacation) and also just as importantly not wait till the end of summer to get a potential permanent coach in place. (unless ofc Carrick, you know - does some magic). #ggmu

To all the Filipinos supporting Duterte and Trump:

Trump is a fanboy of Duterte and EJKs of innocent Filipinos in a so-called “war on drugs.” Trump’s ICE is killing US citizens in the process.

To our former colonizers:

Is this how you pay us back?

I’m both sad and angry reading about Filipinos supporting Trump, especially after the recent horrific shooting in Minnesota. These same people probably supported Duterte and his killing spree here in PH, now they want Trump to do the same in America.
