A new pope, a familiar cry for peace: Will the world finally listen?
Newly elected Pope Leo XIV follows in the footsteps of his predecessor, Pope Francis, saying he is “deeply pained by what is happening in the Gaza Strip” going further by demanding an “immediate ceasefire”
Remember that Pope Francis made comments about the plight of Palestinians in his last ever public appearance on Easter Sunday. Even though he was in his last moments, and too ill to speak properly; he made sure these comments were read out to the public
Pope Francis saw this as the inhumane cruelty that is is
Hopefully this new Pope, Pope Leo, will continue to increase pressure here and remove the mask off imperialism and wake more Christian’s up to the truth

Let us explore how this came to be, and the most recent indicators of this shift 👇
🧵 #AnalysisAlert
2/ In our first 🧵 discussing the shift from traditional media into online and social media, we focused on why this shift was happening, how the legacy media lost our trust, how the mainstream media got hijacked by corporate interests, and repeatedly lied or misled the public
3/ In our follow-up 🧵 “Subversion Media” - we explored the dynamics of the new online media landscape. Here we explored bots, AI, information reliability, and subversive actors and how this would complicate the online playing field of online media and citizen journalism

Thread 🧵 from a 2014 essay exploring the question of "Why did Fanon argue for a #violent struggle against #colonialism? Was he right to do so?"
(1/20) Frantz Fanon’s name rarely appears in mainstream discussions of #decolonisation, overshadowed by figures like Nelson #Mandela and Mahatma #Gandhi. Fanon, however, presented a unique and crucial argument: violent struggle was essential for true liberation from colonialism
(2/20) Fanon isn’t ignored because his analysis lacked depth. Quite the opposite—his ideas were radical, academic & rooted in his lived experience. He didn’t see #violence as mere destruction but as a necessary step toward reclaiming humanity from #oppressors
