La Macronie préfère pactiser avec l'extrême droite plutôt que d'abandonner sa politique anti-pauvres.
Du barrage républicain, on a donc hérité d'une rupture avec la tradition démocratique et d'une alliance avec l'extrême droite !

There’s a counter-school of Australian history, post Humphrey McQueen, that’s invested in pointing out the aspects of slavery that did exist in the Australian 19th and 20thCs. ‘Blackbirding’ or kidnapping, legal travel restrictions of Aboriginal people and their payment in rations (or nothing), wage theft, again mostly from Aboriginal people, indentured contract labour of Chinese and Indian people. Institutions like boys and girls Homes. Unfree labour has never really disappeared.

And then there was a counter-counter school from the 1990s, the History Wars era, that tried to revise it all back. They’re all invested though in comparing Australian pasts against American ones, as though our past could be scaled in institutions.

Picture this moment, but in 1994 wherein Vint Cerf and Robert Kahn are taken into custody for developing TCP/IP, a protocol that inadvertently enabled drug dealers to communicate.

I said it before and I'll say it again, if you're gonna get 5 years for peaceful protest, while fascist rioters only get 2, you may as well level an oil refinery and be done with it.

someone just shared this picture with me and I am so mad this is a thing that somebody thought was a good idea, or even not a terrible idea

From being the first “state” to call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire, to the campaign against the world’s largest Navy exercises, Hawai’i organizers are drawing deeper connections between the military occupations of Hawai’i, Palestine, and the Israeli apartheid state.
