“Patriots” are claiming the Drogheda woman, upset kids were nearly burned alive, was an “RTÉ plant.” Absolute sludge for brains. Grifters, online nazis and the algorithim have divocred a whole swathe of people from reality and driven others to want to kill refugees. Mo náire iad.
Listening to that Festy Ebosele interview I’m convinced we’re going to win the World Cup #COYBIG
I’m sure I’m not the only one who was always dreaming of D’Angelo reemerging with another classic album. It always felt tantalisingly possible because he had done it before. That’s the kind of mystique that nobody else has and may never have again. RIP
So you saw the movie One Battle After Another and want to learn about America’s real radical left wing groups…
It is our duty to fight for our freedom. It is our duty to win. We must love each other and support each other. We have nothing to lose but our chains. RIP Assata Shakur

TBF, from what I've seen, it's the old boys supporting her who think Steen's a baddie...

Rappers were the first sociologists I encountered - it’s who first helped me think about structural injustices. Tupac Shakur stood out in particular. This book by @deanvannguyen takes you on a political journey from the black panthers to Tupac’s demise - an excellent read.
The Laura Woods tweet is so crazy because how can you deliver racism and all the things “in a respectful way” LOOOOL? She was watching videos of him saying every bigoted thing you can imagine and was thinking “wow what a great orator, very articulation 👏🏼🫶🏻”
Of course she did
I really can’t get out of my head what has happened to Charlie Kirk. I watched him a lot, not because I agreed with everything he said, but because he was an absolutely formidable commentator and could debate in a relentless, yet respectful way. Shot in the throat for using his…
"There's no way to be committed to non-violence in the most violent society that history has ever created. I'm not committed to non-violence in any way." -Bernadine Dohrn of Weather Underground
