From Fr Shishoy and his community. Much appreciation for the CofE commemorating the 21 Coptic martyrs of Libya. “The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church” - Tertullian. 0102

The dependency on the capitalist overlords will be complete, because you can’t ask for help or context from others when there is no common frame of reference. This has already happened in coding, the first space where they destroyed the commons we’d all built. 13655182

Sure, he might have a committee and use it as a slush fund, but he's running to be appointed to corporate boards and fake think tanks and stuff. Just too many examples of him going out of his way to show he's not aligned with the Dem base. 1562484445

Irim Sarwar @irimtated.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Point being it's in your history and - and far more recent than medieval, e.g., lynching parties, so stop outsourcing it to people not like you to pretend you're more civilised. 100

Reposted by Irim SarwarInglorious BigMike @lordrevbigmike.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Antarctica is not a country. But thanks for proving my point. I was specifically referring to America. The formation of a “country” is in itself a violent and exclusionary act, the villianization and oppression of indigenous peoples by a colonizing invader. 3232
Irim Sarwar @irimtated.bsky.social · 10/10/2026No. Did you miss the fact that medieval Europe publicly executed people? Direct line from that. 100
Irim Sarwar @irimtated.bsky.social · 10/10/2026No need to bring the Taliban into it. Europe has had plenty of its own fascist, murderous regimes. And America has been this since the beginning. 000
Reposted by Irim SarwarInglorious BigMike @lordrevbigmike.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Sorry but USA has not been civilized, ever. We slaughtered the indigenous peoples to steal their land, we kidnapped indigenous peoples from another continent to pick cotton and sugar cane, we brutalize black and brown people for coming here but welcome white immigrants with open arms. 3748
