Reposted by @afarahani.bsky.socialElizabeth Warren @elizabeth-warren.bsky.social · 07/04/2026Trump is threatening war crimes to annihilate "a whole civilization". Republicans in Congress repeatedly voted for Trump’s war and still won't do their job to end this madness. Enough. Bring Congress back into session. Republicans must grow a spine and stop this catastrophe. 2352686699

afarahani.bsky.social @afarahani.bsky.social · 30/03/2026Seems this is going to be written as one of the most decisive moments of the Second Global Cold War in history. Technically, until US & China don't get into confrontation we are still in a Cold War and not WWIII. Tangerine was officially declared Martyre by IRGC a few hours ago. 000
afarahani.bsky.social @afarahani.bsky.social · 30/03/2026This is my speech at the Free Palestine and NO WAR ON IRAN rally in Vancouver. I point out the disgusting Iranian-diaspora-gone-fascist Pahlavist cult and the reasons that this is a Canadian problem in need of urgent attention.

afarahani.bsky.social @afarahani.bsky.social · 05/03/2026My beloved Tehran is under attack by the demons unleashed by the Epstein-class. #Iran 's resistance for days, weeks, and beyond is humanities chance for a turning point to hit hard the international #fascist movement that is spreading death and pain in the planet. #hands_off_iran 000
Reposted by @afarahani.bsky.socialAvi Lewis @avilewis.ca · 05/03/20261/ PM Carney: you can and must categorically rule out participation in this illegal war. Your unqualified support of Trump and Netanyahu’s war was bad enough. It’s unconscionable that you’re now considering putting Canadian forces in harm’s way. 923080
Reposted by @afarahani.bsky.socialAvi Lewis @avilewis.ca · 04/03/20261/ This is utterly incoherent. What Canadians need to hear from our Prime Minister right now is simple: call for a ceasefire and immediately withdraw your misguided support for Trump and Netanyahu’s illegal war. www.instagram.com/reel/DVcJjIP... 623273

By reducing inequality we can balance the scales of society. Together, we can ensure that the wealth of this country is not hoarded by the few but redistributed to improve life for the 99%. lewisforleader.ca 1418

Our plan will enhance federal income supports to end poverty within 5 years. 14013
Reposted by @afarahani.bsky.socialAvi Lewis @avilewis.ca · 05/02/2026There are fountains of wealth being generated in this country. But that wealth isn't trickling down to working people. It’s all stuck at the top. Our 'Tax Plan for the 99%' takes on the corporate hoarding class – to redistribute wealth and raise the floor for all of us. Join us: lewisforleader.ca 713249

afarahani.bsky.social @afarahani.bsky.social · 09/01/2025@sanders.senate.gov rightly explains that with the type of influence US oligarchs & billionaires have on elections, we no more are living in democracies, even if we did ever live in them before. As John Dewey once Said, the cure to the ailments of democracy, is more democracy. 010
afarahani.bsky.social @afarahani.bsky.social · 09/01/2025@sanders.senate.gov describes how 150 Billionaire families headed by #Elonmusk are funding elections and buying influence in favor of protecting and increasing their wealth. 010

afarahani.bsky.social @afarahani.bsky.social · 09/01/2025Bernie frames it very well in a video that I will upload in six parts.

afarahani.bsky.social @afarahani.bsky.social · 09/01/2025Fascism is officially global with the return of Trump. Elon Musk will take the new fascism born by Trump to new heights. The masks are all off from 2025, and this demands new strategies, discourses, and actions to resist them. 030
