Congratulations to President Lula on a stunning, historic re-election.
A political comeback that will be remembered for generations to come.
This is a victory for the people, for the planet and for peace.

1. The Serbian Election: The beginning of the shift to Real Democracy
The Serbian students' movement move to putting up figures from civilian society in the election points to a fundamental shift away from political parties controlling who stands in elections. However, this development to real democracy can only be consolidated by:
1. Popular assemblies choosing candidates not just the student class.
2. These assemblies setting the policies, rather than having candidates get corrupted and compromised by power.
3. Legally binding citizens' assemblies selected by sortition (randomly from the population) whose decisions will give political legitimacy to the reduction in "living standards" needed to deal with the collapsing biosphere as it in turn leads to economic collapse.
4. A street movement that understands that democracy based upon voting systems and political parties does not stop fascism but rather enables it, by being what it always was and always will be - not real democracy but a form of oligarchy that enables interests of the few (the rich) to dominate the political process.
This oligarchical political party system and the administrative liberal/"left" class that supports it have no answers to the crises we face, as shown by the past 40 years of failure to control the power of the rich to destroy the basis of life on this planet. The results of this catastrophe will only continue to boost fascistic parties which promise "order" in response to the chaos that liberal elites have falied to prevent.
The only choice going forward then is real democracy or fascism.

Any climate solution, that doesn't involve rapidly phasing out fossil fuel burning, as fast as practically possible, is fake.

There are no words for the horrors ahead. The insurance industry predicts 4 Billion Dead from climate collapse.

So: naming the crime is the offense, the one who names it is the guilty, and the one who commits it stands above scrutiny: what a combination of stupidity and viciousness.
Victims are honored by making no more victims not by granting perpetrators impunity.
And @MarkRuffalo rocks!
The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.

Nou, niet omdat je je eigen referentiekader meeneemt, maar omdat het pas journalistiek is als het iets probeert te bewerkstelligen in het publieke belang. Laten we het er eens over hebben, waarde @stepvaessen :-)

Wopke Hoekstra is het schoolvoorbeeld van een politicus die er alleen zit voor het grootkapitaal.
Bedrijven en aandeelhouders krijgen belastingvoordelen en -loopholes, terwijl wij met zijn allen op een houtje mogen bijten.

If you want to be a realist in the face of climate collapse, then you have to be a revolutionary.
