Here is the poem in full: "What War Is", by Ostap Slyvynsky 🇺🇦 #ukraine
Maybe someday they'll decide to write a textbook, only we won't be invited to contribute

because others always know better what war is

because others always know better

okay

but just one chapter

give us one chapter

you won't find any supplemental material anyway

this will be a chapter on silence

whoever hasn't been in war doesn't know what silence is

but to the contrary, they know

that we don't know

the way fish don't know about the water that sustains them and the oil that kills them

the way a field mouse doesn't know about the dark that hides it from the hawk but

it hides the hawk too let us write this chapter

i know you're afraid of blood so we'll write it with water

the water the wounded man asked for when he could no longer swallow and just

looked at it

water that seeps through a shelled-out roof

water that can replace tears

yes -- we'll come to you with water

we'll leave no permanent marks

on your slogans and values that we've so flagrantly misused

that you can't even show them to your children anymore

these will be our few pages

and only a few will know they aren't empty

Démontant un à un les arguments avancés contre la taxe Zucman, l’économiste américain Joseph Stiglitz décrit l’égalité fiscale et la taxation des ultrariches comme des conditions de «la démocratie et de la solidarité sociale».

Le RN, parti « républicain »? Encore faudrait-il qu’il ne soit pas rempli de dangereux fauteurs de trouble raciste… Bref florilège des dernières 24h. ⤵️

Robert Badinter était l’incarnation de tout ce que combat l’extrême droite : une exigence radicalement démocratique de la République, une défense intransigeante de l’égalité des droits, un État de droit qui protège les citoyens des abus de pouvoir de l’État. www.mediapart.fr/journal/poli...

One guest, a retired major general, was asked about Hegseth's dismissal of the rules of engagement. He answered: "The words the president and secretary of defense are those of potential war criminals."

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

Une bonne fois pour toute : si vous dénoncez le genocide en cours à Gaza tout en soutenant/trouvant des excuses/reprenant les éléments de langage des régimes qui commettent des massacres aussi documentés (Chine, Russie, Iran…), vous êtes d’ignobles hypocrites indignes de notre soutien.

Il y a cent ans, entre fin septembre et début octobre 1925, la barbarie fasciste tombait méthodiquement sur Florence, tuait, brûlait et bastonnait pour "purifier" dans sa "Sainte violence" anti-maçonnique l'Italie d'une part de son heritage vivant des Lumières.

Russia’s bombs may level cities, but they can’t bury Ukraine’s identity.

Ukraine’s foreign minister says every destroyed museum or church fuels a new kind of resistance—one fought with art, memory, and truth.
The Only Cultural Legacy Russia Leaves Behind Is Scorched Earth
Ukraine's rich cultural heritage garners global interest, supported by robust initiatives to promote Ukrainian art, literature, and music worldwide.

Still waiting for Speaker Mike Johnson to allow the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva, who was elected 2 weeks ago. Grijalva’s vote could pave the way for House action on releasing the Epstein files – which Johnson opposes. In his version of Christianity, they cover up for child sex predators.
Democrat accuses Mike Johnson of ‘suspicious’ delay of swearing-in to avoid Epstein vote
Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva, D-Ariz., told MSNBC she’s not a “conspiracy theorist” but said she couldn’t come up with another explanation for the delay.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire
