I like to think many an anarchist "left unity" guy was born from being exposed to Graeber saying basically this.
It is the 99% v the 1%
All the propaganda out there is to get all of us in the 99% to fight among each other so we don't unite to defeat the 1%.

Dear Western Liberal,
Saying "I support a two-state solution" does not release you from your moral obligation to ferociously oppose a genocide backed by your own government.

Y'know, I stand with Palestinians because it's right, but it's not for nothing that every single "Gender critical" ideologue also seems to be a committed Zionist, the same people loathe and dehumanise us both, and in that the Palestinian people have my solidarity.

My speech outside the High Court, where GLAN & Al Haq are challenging the government’s role in facilitating Israel’s genocide in Gaza through the supply of F-35 parts.
This is about justice, accountability & ending UK complicity in war crimes.

This is a seminal moment: a Labour government cutting disability benefits. Not just continuing Tory levels. Cutting.
This comes after a week of speculation, itself an act of cruelty by a government toying with people’s dignity.
These cuts are disgraceful - and they will cost lives.
