But who are the REAL fascists, the fascists or the people who tell the fascists they are fascists? You know?

As we all listen to @finkd apologize to congress for the umpteenth time, it’s important to remember that @facebook’s leaking user data isn’t new or an accident. (1/7)

Hufeisen perfektioniert: Die in Spanien regierende Partido Popular lehnt es ab, des 80. Jahrestages der Bombardierung von Guernica zu gedenken. Begründung: Im Bürgerkrieg habe es "Gräueltaten auf beiden Seiten" gegeben. https://t.co/adCc5c3dPh

Please look at the latest on #ZAD and see how @EmmanuelMacron is treating a group of people who came together to resist climate destabilizing development and model a different way to live together and with the land. Then tell him what you think… I hear he cares about his image. https://t.co/A3UZYGH4FE

Eskimo is a slur
Eskimo is a slur
Eskimo is a slur
Eskimo is a slur
Eskimo is a slur
Eskimo is a slur
Anyone who thinks otherwise, I will gladly hop in your DMs and educate you on why it is considered a slur & is degrading to call me and my indigenous peoples “Eskimo.” Thank you.— rachelle. (@katvondawn) April 9, 2018

The Silence: The Legacy of Childhood Trauma – ““I never got any help, any kind of therapy. I never told anyone.”” Devastatingly honest, beautifully written, extremely powerful. We must fight to stop this.
#watch,
Inside the World’s largest drawing – “Oscar Oiwa installation, Marker pen on vinyl ballon with 12x12x6 meters Setouchi Triennale 2016 Shodojima” Immersive art opens up paradise.
The Cake Server – “I hate waiting for dessert, so here’s a Rube Goldberg machine to streamline dinnertime. It lets me keep eating, with no break before cake.” The baby grabbing the iPhone is the best part.
An entire movie of this might well make me walk out screaming, but it’s funny in this trailer.

Five-storey blue penis causes uproar among Stockholm residents – “Art work by Carolina Falkholt to be painted over, after complaints from neighbours” The blue penis is just as beautiful as the pink one she did in NYC.
The Fire This Time – “Jones and his friends are here to defend America, the Constitution, and President Trump from an evil cabal out to destroy them all. That assault, in their minds, is being led by billionaire philanthropist George Soros, the leftist and antifa groups he allegedly funds, along with the “Maoists” who’ve taken over the nation’s universities, the mainstream media (particularly CNN) and the social media giants who own the internet.” When Alex Jones and his cronies meet, American flags will get hugs.
Israel Denounced for “Smear Campaign” Against Palestinian Journalist It Killed in Gaza – “Senior Israeli officials declined on Thursday to offer any proof to substantiate their coordinated attack on the reputation of Yaser Murtaja, a Palestinian photojournalist who was shot and killed by an Israeli sniper last week while documenting protests in Gaza.” Upsetting.
The Tarnac Verdicts: Unraveling the Logic of Anti-Terrorism : After Ten Years, the “Tarnac Affair” Concludes in France – “The peculiarity of this trial is that the judicial apparatus has come up against people who are prepared to defend themselves and determined not to let themselves be crushed. We are conscious of having had the chance to defend ourselves, of being able to speak, of having three weeks in which to do so. Since we’ve fought, we have benefited from certain privileges. Having spent a little time in prison, I would like to dedicate this trial to all those who haven’t had the means to defend themselves, who are not listened to and who are convicted in silence.” From Julien Coupats closing statement.
A CALL FOR INTERGALACTIC SOLIDARITY ACTIONS EVERYWHERE TO END THE DESTRUCTION OF THE ZAD OF NOTRE DAME DES LANDES – “We are writing with the smell of tear gas rising from our fingers. The springtime symphony of birdsong is punctuated by the explosive echo of concussion grenades. Our eyes are watering, less from the gas than the sadness; because our friends’ homes, barns and organic farms are being destroyed. Bulldozers, supported by 2500 riot police, armored vehicles, helicopters and drones, are rampaging through these forests, pastures and wetlands to crush the future we are building here on the to the zad (The zone à defendre).” ZAD pour toujours!
Organic Food Has Pesticides, Too – “So, will you lower your pesticide exposure by switching to organic? We don’t know, but the answer may very well be no. Even looking at the synthetic, non-organic pesticides in the USDA’s tests, conventional crops don’t always have the lowest amounts.” Don’t act surprised.
The Body That Ages – “On expensive skincare and a changing face” Yeah sure. But. Ageing just sucks so much.
MeshPoint | Rugged Wifi HotSpot For Outdoors & Crisis Areas – “Wifi technology that saves lives” Hotspots for refugee camps.

Everything's coming together while everything's falling apart: The ZAD from Oliver Ressler.
Renegaten, Verräter, Konvertiten, Überläufer oder Überzeugungstäter – René Nerdcore is back, so it’s a good time to re-read this. Renégaten.
YouTube: Ohnmächtig vor dem Bildschirm – “Kein Videodienst hat so viel Macht wie YouTube. Doch je mehr Videos gelöscht werden, desto mehr Fehler treten auf. Das mussten zuletzt auch deutsche Aktivisten erfahren.” Monopolies gonna monopo-lie.
Économie verte et contre-insurrection – “L’économie verte est clairement une stratégie dans les nouvelles guerres coloniales et de contre-insurrection, et pas qu’au Mexique. C’est une nouvelle arme de « démultiplication de force », je veux dire de force de contrôle, pour gagner toujours du terrain, pour toujours mieux coloniser les territoires.” Green economy is a scam. Stop capitalism.
Der Reichsbürger der #MeToo-Bewegung – “Nach den weinerlichen Ausführungen von Jens Jessen in der “Zeit” muss keiner mehr Angst haben, der Peinlichste in der #MeToo-Debatte zu sein. Der Journalist hat der Emanzipation deshalb sogar einen Gefallen getan.”” The low point of the debate has been reached in Germany.
Kampf um Pepe: Erfinder möchte seinen berühmten Frosch vor Rechtsextremen retten – “Matt Furie, der Erfinder von Pepe dem Frosch, hat vergangenen Monat die Website Infowars verklagt. Der Cartoon-Künstler möchte die rechtskonservative Seite davon abhalten, ein Poster mit Pepe zu verkaufen.” Free Pepe (from the alt-right cucks)
Eine neue Dimension – “Die Polizei veröffentlicht Ende März das Video einer Schlägerei zwischen Fussballultras mitten in Zürich. Die Onlinemedien verlinken es euphorisch. Psychologen werden bemüht, die Medien sind «ratlos», «betroffen» und «schockiert».” This text of football hooligans started quite a debate in Switzerland.
