Me thinks in the next year as the impact of the war starts to bite deeper, we are all gonna find out about the perils of shifting almost everything to a ‘just in time’ basis over the last 40 years.

Not at all. We knows about its genocide. It’s using the green light it got for the genocide, to expand its territorial ambitions & its perceived threats I.e. Iran, in the region. They see this as a once in a lifetime opp to reshape the region in its image & that of the US imperial control.

What I find fascinating is most people (and that means not working in education or activists of sorts) still have never heard of the phrase & so I never use it. Indeed, woke (positive or negative) is now, genuinely a popularly used phrase in the UK in a way neoliberalism never has nor ever will be.

Great poster!’Just a thought about future publicity: the British Dyslexia Association strongly advises we don’t write using block caps as it tends to be harder for dyslexic people & some other neurodiverse people to read. www.thedyslexia-spldtrust.org.uk/media/downlo...

These points sound plausible, but we are constantly told the legacy media is not influential anymore. Or is it more influential on older people pulled to the right?!Secondly does the legacy media filter down & get recirculated on social media to a younger/wider audience?

The US elite can kidnap a foreign president & assassinate Iranian leaders but they cant arrest anyone anywhere for being part of Epstein’s child trafficking & abuse networks.

According to the right & far right in the UK, the BBC is run by lefties. But at the UK version of the Oscars last night, it allowed the racist term n@@@@r to be aired & not edited out but it did edit out a Free Palestine comment by one of the winners. Go figure.

It’s class struggle by incredibly brave, largely, working class survivors of Epstein’s abuse. Who’d of thought these women would shake empires! ❤️

It’s certainly sparked a genuine mass movement of resistance. Where it goes, we still don’t know.

Sighs that some fall for liberal hypocrisy of Carney who calls ideology out while reproducing it. admits the “rules-based order” was selective & hegemonic, then rebrands same imperial political economy as values-based realism. It’s not honesty; it’s a software update for the same operating system

It’s more to do with 1. Reasserting US dominance in its own backyard. 2. A warning to all its critics near & far (leftist Mexico to China). 3. Competing with China for LA resources. 4. Distraction at home from poor polls, Epstein fines etc…

I hate the modern day chain letter more than the old one as it amplifies so much more. It also reveals how little basic, basic research skills people have. That’s not their fault, but surely schools are now teaching this stuff?
