Since in the wake of this #Giessen post, someone asked how the global elites let things get to this...
... well, parts of them have been busy to make it happen.
It's not #AfD, it's not #Trump or #Musk or #Vance or #Thiel nor any of the others... it's all of them, together, already trying to carve up the world and divide it between them.

Amerikaanse dreiging tegen #Venezuela: gaat de geschiedenis zich herhalen? - https://nos.nl/l/2592309
Goed om dit te lezen als context voor wat #Trump nu doet (en gaat doen) in #Venezuela.
Trump: beschouw het luchtruim boven Venezuela als gesloten - https://nos.nl/l/2592497
Het is ongelofelijk onverantwoord geweest dat we ons decennialang zo afhankelijk hebben gemaakt van de VS.
Het is nog onverantwoorder om dat nu niet alsnog als de fucking donder af te bouwen. #BoycottUS
Zou een oorlog beginnen met Venezuela de media voldoende afleiden van de Epstein files? Trump denkt van wel.
Het gaat natuurlijk niet over opiaten als fentanyl, zelfs niet over cocaïne, bodemschatten of omverwerpen van het regime, maar in de eerste plaats over alles wat afleidt van de Epstein files. Eigenbelang eerst.
Dat mag wat Trump betreft mensenlevens kosten.
Wanneer gaan de media dit zo berichten?

Trump’s anti-green agenda could lead to 1.3 million more temperature-related deaths.
Most of the people expected to suffer live in poor countries in Africa and South Asia that are least prepared to cope with the increasing heat from climate change.

ICE Sent 600 Immigrant Kids to Detention in Federal Shelters This Year. It’s a New Record.
---
Under a zero tolerance policy, the first Trump administration separated immigrant children from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border. New data suggests separations are happening all over the country, often after little more than a traffic stop.

Fascism has arrived in the US. Here's a video of a (liberal) lawyer just straight up saying the courts won't save you.
The system only speaks two languages now: money and violence. If you want a chance to avoid the second, now is the time to use the first. #MassBlackout is a #Boycott of the American corporations that support the dictatorship. By showing that people have the power to shut down the economy if elites don't listen, we can hit them where it actually hurts.
From now until December 2nd, do as many of these things as you can:
- Stop online or in-store shopping (except for small businesses)
- Stop work
- Stop streaming, cancel subscriptions, no digital purchases
This is one of the few times that boosting stuff on social media and doing nothing else actually *can* make a difference. Boost posts tagged with #WeAintBuyingIt, #MassBlackout, and #BlackOutTheSystem. Make sure everyone you know knows about it. Hold each other accountable to keep from spending. You may already not be spending because.... well,.. #Trump has already made everything too expensive. The thing is that elites can't actually tell the difference. Spreading word, making the protest seem as big and impactful as possible is all that's really needed to fracture elites and turn them against each other. Boost, write your own post, make these tags trend on every platform you can, then do nothing.
Don't buy things, don't work. Just stop. Refuse to participate in capitalism. This is the ultimate "fuck you, make me" because they absolutely can't make you. This is the ultimate reminder of where power actually comes from.
If you're outside the US, (continue to) boycott American products (if the tariffs haven't already taken care of that) until the regime falls. Cancel all American streaming services, and any other American tech you can. If you're stuck on American tech, spend some time to look for local alternatives.
It turns out the world is more interconnected than capitalists would like you to believe, and we all actually have the power to change things. It's time to prove it.
A state with a Department of War and itself being involved in some type of military conflict for over 90% of its own 250 year history, really has no place submitting a proposal for peace for anyone. In #Sudan. In Palestine. In the #HornofAfrica. Nor anywhere else

Somehow, I missed this story. The local news just reported on a follow-up today -- all charges against the woman were dropped! Cops lied! Imagined that!
Texts appear to show #Maine #BorderPatrol agent bragging about shooting a woman in #Chicago
By the Associated Press
Updated November 6, 2025
CHICAGO — "Text messages sent by a Border Patrol agent appear to show he bragged to colleagues about his shooting skills after wounding a woman charged with assaulting a federal officer in Chicago.
"Agent Charles Exum shot Marimar Martinez five times on Oct. 4 after authorities say she and another driver rammed vehicles into an SUV Exum was driving on the city’s Southwest Side.
"The messages were presented as evidence in federal court Wednesday. Martinez, a 30-year-old US citizen, and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz, 21, are charged with assault on a federal officer using a deadly or dangerous weapon. [LIES!]
"In the text, agent Exum wrote that he had 'an amendment to add to' his story. 'I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book boys,' the text read. [WTF!]
"The shooting occurred as President #Trump’s escalation of federal law enforcement continued in cities across the US.
" 'On Oct. 5, the Department of Homeland Security acknowledged the shooting, saying in a statement that agents 'were rammed by vehicles and boxed in by 10 cars.' When agents exited their vehicle, 'a suspect tried to run them over, forcing the officers to fire defensively,' the statement continued. [Which was a lie!!! See related story below...]
"No officers were seriously injured."

#Hegseth’s order, which has not been previously reported, adds another dimension to the campaign against suspected drug traffickers. Some current & former #US officials & #LawOfWar experts have said that the #Pentagon’s lethal campaign—which has killed more than 80 people to date—is #unlawful & may expose those most directly involved to future prosecution.

Trump’s Immigration Forces Deploy “Less Lethal” Weapons in Dangerous Ways, Skirting Rules and Maiming Protesters

Civil rights and weapons experts cite the consequences of federal agents’ use of crowd control weapons: religious leaders shot with pepper balls and noxious chemicals. A nurse nearly blinded by tear gas. Protestors trapped, struggling to breathe.

This man was created by #Trump in his first term.
The man suspected of #shooting 2 #NationalGuard members, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, was once part of a #CIA-backed paramilitary group, one of several so-called #ZeroUnits, according to #Afghan & #US officials.
The units also had a reputation for ruthlessness, with journalists & #HumanRights groups referring to them as “death squads.”

In a 2019 report, Human Rights Watch said it had documented several instances in which the strike forces were responsible for “extrajudicial executions & enforced disappearances, indiscriminate airstrikes, attacks on medical facilities, & other violations of international humanitarian #law.”

omg people, please stop and think before posting stupid shit like, "The shooting in DC yesterday was #Trump's fault! The shooter entered the country during Trump's 1st term and was granted asylum during Trump's 2nd term."
Trump has been trying to eliminate all immigration and asylum since 2017. In his and his base's and the GOP's view, the fact that some immigration and asylum is still happening doesn't mean he did something wrong, it means he needs to redouble his efforts.

A proposed regulation would have denied disability benefits to at least 830,000 older blue-collar workers.
But after reporting from ProPublica and others, the Trump administration has killed the plan.
