The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke onscreen, he implored the people of the world to resist the rising tide of fascism.
Nearly 90 years later, it remains a timely message.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

How does the state of Israel own the souls of so many people in power?
Maccabi Tel Aviv fans were banned because of information from Interpol in Europe, who passed it on to the Home Office, who gave it to the Police, who banned them.
Is our Government really going to endanger the safety of our citizens just so it doesn't upset Israel?

Genocide is really simple, it's where a larger group with all the power and the weapons decides to wipeout another group without weapons and power, to take all their land/possessions.
Doesn't matter what race the victims or the perpetrators belong to.

I point them to my Dutch in-laws, who broke the law by sheltering a Jewish boy, and the Nazi soldiers and Dutch police, whose raids seeking criminals like them upheld the law.🧵
