It takes around 8 years for an olive tree to begin producing fruit and at least another 60 years for it to reach stable yields. The burning of olive groves is intergenerational violence.

Very sweet post. What actually happened is that these guys followed the police, used them as protection, called a woman the n word, beat up a kid the police had already knocked over, and then followed a known local white nationalist organizer who led them to get the flag back up

Honor the dead and fight like hell for the living.

imagine if we had something kind of like a university but designed to educate and empower young people to contribute to the collective good of our world

for very many of us, all bullshit aside, if you support the side that has killed more than 13,000 children you are our enemy, and there is no further discussion to be had.

JOIN YOUR COLLEAGUES. WITHHOLD GRADES. DEMAND AMNESTY. On Saturday, May 4, UVA exec admin stood by while state police cracked down on a peaceful gathering. The aim of the protest was for UVA to disclose where state and tuition dollars go, and sever ties... (1/2)

I'll be note-taking from today's faculty-hosted: Eyewitness Perspectives, An Honest Town Hall

So I made 10k followers it appears. For my 10k post, I want you to form a local Marxist organization. If you're already part of one, I want you to reach out to [email protected] and consider struggling together toward the rectification of a new Communist party in NA.
