🚨 PAST WORDS. PRESENT CONSEQUENCES. HARD QUESTIONS. Old footage has resurfaced showing Australia’s Prime Minister at a pro-Palestinian rally earlier in his career — condemning Israeli military actions and marching beneath slogans accusing Israel of “slaughter.” That history matters now, not because it proves guilt, but because it frames...

There have always been moments in history when the unthinkable or the unspeakable have occurred. Moments recorded in the pages of history, where we must use our imagination to conjure up images of the pain and suffering those that lived through those moments endured. Never in a million years do we ever imagine from the lofty height of our comfortable existence, WE will become the subject of one of those stories that future generations will look upon in the same way today we look upon 1930’s Germany. I have taken the liberty of adapting the now famous words of Pastor Martin Niemöller First they came for the black people And I did not speak out Because I was not black. Then they came for the Mexicans And I did not speak out Because I was not a Mexican. Then they came for the Muslims And I did not speak out Because I was not a Muslim Then they aided and abetted Israel to murder Palestinian women and children And I did not speak out Because I was not a Palestinian Then they came for the LGBTQ + community And I did not speak out Because I was not a member of that community. Then they came for the poor, the vulnerable and the disabled And I did not speak out Because I was none of these. Then they came for the students and the Universities And I did not speak out Because I was not a student Then they came for the journalists And I did not speak out Because I was not a journalist Then they came for the lawyers And I did not speak out Because I was not a lawyer Then they came for Medicaid And I did not speak out Because I was not on Medicaid Then they came for the Social Security And I did not speak out Because I did not need Social Security. Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me History will judge us not for who we are, but what we did in a moment when democracy whimpered in a dark corner of the room begging to be protected from a malign force intent on reducing two and a half centuries of progress to ashes. In this moment of peril, history will ask, did we subjugate our values, our hopes and aspirations to a convicted criminal and adjudicated rapist? Or did we stand firm as did members of our military, many of whom made the ultimate sacrifice, that we may honor their sacrifice in this moment, and stand against the very threat they gave their lives to defend us from. Never in the history of this great nation has there been a moment when the resolve of its people means so much to so many around the world. Nations now threatened by a man leading an international crime syndicate and extortion gang from behind the sacred resolute desk, on which laws that have formed the very foundations of the global order have been signed. Laws that America has upheld, protected and preserved for decades as it led the world since the end of World War Two. Democracy and freedom deserve better than to live in fear of a madman who serves nobody but himself and his obscenely rich accomplices. Martin Luther King Jr had a dream, but it looked nothing like this. 🎥 TikTok -

Brothers and sisters of Ireland, 🇮🇪 We gather not in silence, but in strength. We gather not in hate, but in hope. And we gather not to divide, but to demand. For the past number of days, our country has been brought to a standstill. Not by chaos without cause, but by people pushed to the edge. Farmers, workers, drivers, families, ordinary Irish people have taken to the roads, to the streets, to the gates of this nation’s lifelines because the cost of simply living has become too much to bear. They are not there for attention. They are there because they cannot afford not to be. Fuel prices have surged to unsustainable levels, driven by global crises and policies beyond the control of ordinary people. And yet, it is the ordinary people who are expected to carry the burden. They tell us support has been given. They tell us measures are in place. They tell us to be patient. But patience does not fill a tank. Patience does not keep a business alive. Patience does not put food on the table. Across Ireland, roads have been blocked, cities brought to a halt, and supply lines disrupted. Fuel depots, ports, even the country’s only oil refinery have been targeted in protest. Not out of malice but out of desperation. And now we see the response. The government condemns the protests. They speak of disruption, of law and order, of consequences. They warn of penalties and even bring in the Defence Forces to assist. But where was this urgency before? Where was this response when people were crying out for help? We ask not for chaos. We ask not for division. We ask for fairness. We ask for a government that listens before the country grinds to a halt. We ask for action before people are forced onto the streets to be heard. Because let us be clear: These protests did not appear out of nowhere. They are the result of years of pressure, rising costs, and people feeling ignored. You, in government, we ask you now!! Why does it take nationwide disruption before you listen? Why are workers and families pushed to breaking point before action is taken? Why must people blockade their own country just to be heard? We are not extremists. We are not criminals. We are citizens. And we are pissed of being ignored. Those standing on the roads today those sitting in tractors and trucks through the night those sacrificing income to make a point they are not the enemy of this country. They are the voice of it. And yes you best believe disruption is real. People are delayed, services affected, and frustration is growing. But that is what happens when a government stops listening and the people are left with no other choice. This is a peaceful movement. But it is a powerful one. And it carries a message that cannot be ignored! A country cannot function when its people cannot afford to live in it. So we say again: Serve your people first, or step aside. This is not your Ireland to manage from a distance. This is our Ireland, lived in every day by those now standing in protest. And until there is real action, real engagement, and real change the voices on those roads will not fade. They will grow louder. Éire Abú.

Palantir CEO Alex Karp says the left and right are converging: "The functional allies of our adversaries now, who claim to want these progressive things—both far-right and far-left, which are actually structurally very similar—are helping to fight for structures that would not include anyone like them." "I want a society where it is: the best people succeed." "There's a right of free speech, whether you like the person or not." "There's a right of privacy, whether you like the person or not." "There's a right to put checks on the government, whether they like you or not." "The people who are working the hardest to destroy those concepts, and are the most effective in destroying those concepts, call themselves progressive. They're not progressive. "Or they call themselves, super far right. They're not even right-wing." "The people on the far left, and the people I hung out with in the Frankfurt School, which was left of center of where I was—true progressives—would be somewhat not amused to know that the actual philosophical background of most modern non-progressive progressives is not Marx, it's Heidegger." "They're not actually left-wing. They're actually asking for things that are classically right-wing." "What are those things? They're asking for: we all get to be the same. We're all defined by who we are, by how we were born, or what we impute ourselves to be. There are only rights for a sector of people. The rights do not apply to people who are not like us because of wealth or because they think differently, and that we want a society that essentially looks communal." "These are like prototypical, non-progressive, classically right-wing thoughts just reapplied to people who call themselves progressive." "That's the society that Palantir and I are effectively working against." "By giving people more sovereignty, whether they believe it or not, protecting people from terrorism with civil liberties, by making businesses wealthier and better, where the businesses keep their actual alpha, and by helping Ukraine, Israel, and America establish a dominant position."

I do not speak about politics often on this account. But this time I will. He was eighteen. He was stabbed five times on a street in Southampton, UK. And in the minutes that decided whether he lived or died, the police handcuffed him, the victim, because his killer told them he was the aggressor and called him a racist. They did not believe Henry when he said he had been stabbed and could not breathe many times. By the time they understood, he was gone. His death was not just the failure of a few individuals at the scene. It was the failure of a system that has lost its moral compass. A system of murderous empathy. A court has since ruled that the killer's story was, in the judge's own words, wholly false. The force has apologised for arresting a dying boy. But Henry is still dead. For years our institutions have been shaped by ideas that sort people into fixed categories of victim and offender before the facts are known. These frameworks distort judgment at every level. Some learn to wield an accusation as a shield. Others, placed in authority, grow so afraid of being called biased that they abandon basic fairness and ordinary courage. The result is paralysis, confusion, and injustice, and on that night it was fatal. This is not compassion. It is moral chaos, it is a true racism and it destroys real lives. It took Henry's. It will take more if we keep pretending nothing is wrong. I honor Henry by refusing to look away. We owe him a society built on responsibility, equal treatment and same rules for everyone, and the courage to say plainly what is happening in front of us. Henry Nowak should still be alive.
