Exceptional yet horrifying work by +972 Magazine. The article reveals the sheer fucking gall of Google & Amazon, two of the most disgusting companies of our age. To secure contracts, they accepted a secret โ€œwinking mechanismโ€ clause designed to let Israel evade scrutiny. Each time

This is beyond parody: the EU has come up with a "cloud sovereignty framework" to make EU tech more sovereign and they've notably devised a "sovereignty score" to determine whether a particular cloud provider is sovereign or not (which will then determine if they get government

A brilliant book In clear, excellent prose - with the backdrop of the authorโ€™s own trip in the Sahara! - we learn of the history of genocides in previous centuries, carried out by European colonialists and how they justified those genocides to themselves Helps explain Gaza

Even though I've been saying for months that, behind the trade blows, a US pivot towards accepting coexistence with China was inevitable given structural realities, I'm genuinely surprised at how dramatic the shift in language is: it literally moved from extreme McCarthyist fever

Why? Because you cut sure start, youth clubs, ema, the police, local council budgets. You outsourced childrens care and youth prisons to G4S and vastly inexperienced staff. Your party doesn't believe in 'society'. Maybe start there.

Still can't wrap my head around the fact that internationally renowned activist Greta Thunberg said she was tortured and sexually humiliated by Israeli soldiers when she was abducted for trying to bring aid to starving civilians and the world just shrugged and moved on.

Up and down the country, billionaires have been cruelly targeted by The Green Party Zack Polanski for simply being incredibly rich. This heartless abuse needs to stop, now. Here's how you can help our campaign, Billionaires In Need ๐Ÿฅบ

Why we need to tax the super rich more. Their wealth is growing MUCH faster than everyone else's. And they're using it to outbid you for real resources: housing, assets, healthcare, education and everything else of real value.

My Venezuelan friend, Juan Gรถring-Hitler, assures me that his countrymen love Trump and are currently marching in the streets demanding a competetive tax rate that doesn't punish entrepreneurs

No es si Maduro es bueno o malo, ni siquiera si es narcotraficante, en los archivos de la justicia colombiana despuรฉs de medio siglo de lidiar con las mafias mรกs grandes de la cocaรญna, no aparecen los nombres de Nicolรกs Maduro ni de Cilia Flores. Quienes han llegado a denunciar

Is this a real question? Under Maduro, Venezuela didnt pivot to neoliberal austerity (unlike all its neighbours) despite sanctions, oil collapse, and hyperinflation. Instead it doubled down on a defensive redistributive model by expanding social protection through the CLAP food
