Sudan is an extremely wealthy country in terms of resources and gold only contributes a fraction of that wealth. Money is absolutely a driving factor along with Sudan's strategic location along the Red Sea which ultimately is also connected to capitalist interests. (3/3)

Every day at the southern border people are deported for no reason at all. Please let this moment radicalize you. This same judge is judging everyone who is not in the public eye too. What injustices have met the millions of other humans going through this system?

Jewish students at Columbia have chained themselves to a gate (already locked) to protest ICE detentions of student protestors. They accuse members of our board of trustees of providing information about students to ICE and are demanding accountability.

"In other words, a 12-year-old had the forethought to drag her younger sister immediately after witnessing three loved ones killed because she knew that Israel often deployed their infamous double tap strikes whereby they bomb, wait a bit, and then bomb again." Lucid and bleak writing; much needed.

I feel like it almost has to be a fantasy of a certain class of people who are much less likely to have known people who went to prison that there's a plausible solution here. On paper it doesn't work. In theory it doesn't work. In practice it doesn't work.

And much of this technology will also be used to facilitate counterrevolutions and escalate border violence. Our collective liberation is tied to the liberation of Palestinians.

Can’t put enough emphasis on what the words “last medical facility” mean in the context of this genocide. It’s pretty simple to understand what happens when there’s no hospital available.

Heart shattering to learn an Israeli drone has targeted and assassinated Mahmoud Almadhoun, one of the founders and chefs behind the Gaza Soup Kitchen. What started as four pots and essential ingredients in Bait Lahia had grown into a remarkable effort to feed 3,000 people daily.

As vital resources continue to be extracted and investments in war intensify, what does it mean to practice a politics oriented toward life? How do we build the body of the Hydra so that our movements interlink and regenerate? What can we learn from past freedom struggles?

What is happening in the north is beyond comprehension, and the Israeli government and IDF have gone out of their way to ensure that the media has a hard time reporting it. Myself and @farrahfazal.bsky.social gathered some testimony, but it is one sliver of the horrors.
