🎶 Riff Raff Radical Marching Band 🎶 🎉
Saw some red and black flags flying in the festival crowd today and found myself following this street band for the next half hour or so.
Notably they were being joined by other performers who happened to be in the area, especially indigenous performers.

Absolutely made my day.

FREE THE HUNGER STRIKERS!
PALESTINE Action protesters on hunger strike in UK prison are losing the ability to speak and stand and are on the verge of dying. Since the hunger strike began on Nov 2, seven striking prisoners have been hospitalized, with 4 halting the protest. None of them have been convicted of anything. Yet, they have all incarcerated for over a year, in violation of the standard pre-trial custody limit of six months.
Letting prisoners die of hunger is not a new tactic for the UK. They let Bobby Sands and other Irish prisoners of war starve to death in 1980-81. The difference between then and now is that then the government at least was open to dialog with the hunger strikers. Justice Minister David Lammy has refused all requests by the activists' lawyers and family to even meet them.
Death usually occurs between 60 to 70 days without food. Heba Muraisi had gone 53 days without food, as of Christmas day. Her comrades have gone 32-47 days, each.
UN special rapporteur Francesca Albanese, who Trump has sanctioned, denounced Labour Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s treatment of the protesters: “Preventable deaths in custody are never acceptable. The state bears full responsibility for the lives and wellbeing of those it detains... Urgent action is required now.”

‚Deutschlandweit werden linken Strukturen und Einzelpersonen aktuell Bankkonten gekündigt. Das betrifft im besonderen Maße Konten der #GLS Bank. Die Gründe für die Kündigungen werden von den Banken nicht benannt, doch vor dem Hintergrund, dass die Kriminalisierung von Antifaschismus immer weiter vorranschreitet und Antifaschistinnen aus Deutschland von den #USA als Terroristinnen eingestuft werden, liegt eine politische Motivation nahe. Diese Entwicklung ist besorgniserregend und verdeutlicht die Dringlichkeit, gegen den immer weiter vorranschreitenden Rechtsruck vorzugehen.
Wie gehen wir mit Debanking um? Wie können wir uns wehren? Wie können wir Betroffene unterstützen? Gibt es alternative Zahlungssysteme, die in solchen Fällen für Spendensammlungen genutzt werden können? Wie schaffen wir es, die Gründe für die Kündigungen zu erfahren, wenn die Banken selbst diese nicht nennen wollen?‘

‚Die Rote Hilfe hat, wie viele weitere linke Organisationen in den letzten Wochen auch, ihre Konten verloren. Politische Entscheidung der Trump-Administration führten dazu. Über das SWIFT-System kann die USA auch hierzulande bestimmen, wer ein Konto erhält, wer nicht und wessen Bankverbindung einseitig gekündigt werden muss. . Wir geben einen Überblick was warum bisher passiert ist, was die Folgen für uns sind, wie wir reagiert haben, wie es weiter geht und was IHR jetzt tun könnt.‘

"Over 100,000 people have filled the streets of the Bulgarian capital in mass youth-led demonstrations against the rotten, mafia-rule regime. Whilst the protests were initially triggered by the 2026 draft budget – which the government quickly withdrew on 2 December – the protests did not stop. Instead, they gained momentum and forced the government to resign just nine days later!"

So Greta Thunberg has been arrested in London for holding a placard that said:
'I support the Palestine Action prisoners. I oppose genocide.'
It will be interesting to see if Thunberg's case gets to court because its far from clear that this specific wording articulates support for a proscribed organisation...it may well be a case of [edit] City of London Police over-reach!
In any case its another arrest of a peaceful protestor..

Ethics doesn’t exist in capitalism. But cowing to ethics does.
Boycotts exist because that’s the rule of law with corporations: all decisions are made based on their monetary value.
We have SO much power in the boycott. But they fool us.
Like RATM says: “what does the billboard say? Come and play, come and play. Forget about the movement.”
Let’s turn that around. ✊🏻

For Those Who Were Told This Is the Best We Can Do:
We were promised a #future.
What we got was a subscription.
The world told us: #Work hard, play fair, and you will rise.
But the elevator was always broken.
Only the penthouse keys worked.
#Capitalism did not #fail.
It did exactly what it was designed to do.
It turned human time into fuel.
It turned life into a cost factor.
It turned dignity into a luxury brand.
The #system says everyone can win.
This is like a casino saying everyone can leave rich.
The building exists because most people lose.
Once the ruling class wore crowns.
Now they wear hoodies, smiles, and stock options.
Once #exploitation needed whips.
Now it needs apps.
You are told you are free.
But your #freedom ends where rent begins.
Where debt begins.
Where #healthcare begins.
Where #survival begins.
This is not freedom.
This is The Hunger Games, except the Capitol convinced the districts to blame each other for the rules.
The poor fight the poor.
The middle class defends a system that is slowly deleting it.
The rich watch it all like a live stream, asking only one question:
“How do we monetize this?”
You are praised for exhaustion.
#Burnout is called ambition.
Rest is called weakness.
A system that needs you tired cannot afford you awake.
They say: Be grateful you have a #job.
As if survival were a gift.
As if obedience were a virtue.
This is the #Matrix, but instead of machines farming bodies, corporations farm attention, energy, and years of your life — and call it “career growth.”
First, it poisons the water.
Then it sells bottled #hope.
First, it destroys #community.
Then it sells “networking.”
First, it creates loneliness.
Then it sells algorithms pretending to be love.
It tells you:
If you are unhappy, it is your fault.
If you are poor, you didn’t optimize hard enough.
If you fail, you didn’t brand yourself properly.
This is not a system of opportunity.
It is a system of blame #management.
No billionaire earned their wealth alone.
They inherited leverage.
They bought laws.
They rented governments.
Every fortune is built on invisible backs.
Every luxury stands on unpaid overtime somewhere else on the planet.
This is Titanic economics:
First class debates wine pairings.
Third class floods.
And the band plays louder so no one hears the structure cracking.
They don’t fear protests.
They fear understanding.
Because the moment people realize:
* #Poverty is structural
* #Exploitation is intentional
* Inequality is profitable
The spell breaks.
That is why they flood us with culture wars.
That is why they keep us scrolling.
That is why they turn politics into reality TV.
A divided working class is the most efficient resource extraction tool ever invented.
We do not need heroes.
We need awareness.
We do not need saviors.
We need solidarity.
The future will not be built by billionaires.
They only know how to extract, not how to care.
A system that cannot imagine human worth without #profit
has already confessed its moral bankruptcy.
Another world is not only possible.
This one is already impossible.
It survives only because we keep mistaking endurance for consent.
History does not move forward politely.
It moves when people stop believing lies that no longer serve them.
And when that happens —
no #algorithm can suppress it,
no #market can absorb it,
no #empire can rebrand it.
Because ideas whose time has come
do not ask for permission.
They arrive.
