Why the incarceration and coerced guilty plea of Julian Assange are a travesty....

👇… ASSANGE HAS BLOOD ON HIS HANDS?

In 2013 the Pentagon ruled there is no evidence the Manning info, released by Wikileaks, had any impact on US strategic interests. The agent leading the review stated it did not lead to any US troop or agent deaths.

Morality is about unity.
It is a universal sentience unification system.
Anything that divides us is immoral.

1/-
#ethicalrenewal #morality #tusus Patriotism is immoral.
Why?
Because morality is about unity and equality but patriotism is about exceptionalism and inequality.
Patriotism says one group of people are better than everyone else.
That's immoral.

WTF does Israel want?

X – Not to eliminate Hamas
(every bomb recruits a militant)

X – Not to free the hostages
(they’ve killed more than they’ve rescued)

X – Not future peaceful co-existence
(you don’t achieve that with violence creating millions who hate you)

1/5 X – Not a One State Solution
(….needs peaceful co-existence and equal rights – not violence and apartheid)

X – Not a Two State Solution
(they’re settling – or turning into rubble – the areas that would have been the 2nd state)

ETHICAL RENEWAL – A STATEMENT

The morality of the treatment of Palestinians by Israel and the recent breakout from Gaza is clear.

All lives are equal.
We ALL deserve protection, nurture, fairness, freedom and equality.

Killing civilians and innocents is immoral.
Any civilians.
Any innocents.
On any side.

This is something moral people do not do.
This is something any person who claims to be moral condemns.

2/9

A moral society puts people first.
Not wealth.
Not power.
Not nation states.
Not archaic forms of government or law.
Not royal families or venerable castes.
People.
Ordinary people.
Us.

It’s time to counter-troll the trolls.

How about this, for starters?

So much is wrong with our world.
Everyone knows it.
But it’s almost impossible to make a difference.
Everyone knows that.

And yet… …we can make a difference.

It’s a numbers games.
We just need to add ourselves to the numbers.

Here’s how. #1 acts of resistance #1

it’s practical, it’s sensible, it gives you a say

CLIMATE CHANGE
PLAUSIBLE WORST CASE SCENARIO

#PlausibleWorstCaseScenario #ClimateCrisis 2022
2019, 2020 and 2021 were ominous – but they barely touched the surface.
Expect more heatwaves, storms, floods, droughts. Watch as the Arctic and Antarctic continue to melt.

Coral Reef death escalates.

Under Keir Starmer's leadership Labour have been losing their vote share in council and by-elections across the country, making greater losses than in GE 2019, despite that year’s smearing of Labour and its leadership (now pretty much ‘on hold’).

1/16
#Starmer #KeirStarmer Is this poor voter performance and Starmer’s continuing unpopularity the result of strategic mistakes on the part of him and his team?

Let’s look at what appear to be Sir Keir Starmer’s top ten errors of judgement.

2/16
#Starmer #KeirStarmer #Labour #mistakes

Here's why

We’ve talked about the enemies of our civilisation and biological world:
– the corporations
– the growth economy
– the oligarch- or state-controlled media
– the greedy and power-hungry 0.1%

#epiphany “Enemies in terms of endangering social cohesion and environmental sustainability?”

Yes, in precisely those terms – the enemies who’re endangering us all.

But then we moved on.

“Anyone would think we had some sort of death wish.”
Me and you?
“No. Humanity. The human race.”
Perhaps we do.
“We’re waging chemical warfare against our own species.”
It’s a kind of madness, isn’t it?

1/36 Our self-harming chemical war:
– Particulates spewed out from our use of wood, diesel, coal and other fuels, particulates which we then breath
– The pesticides, herbicides and fertilisers we pour over pastures and farmlands, which then permeate our food chain

You deserve to be listened to.

It’s well known that our society is infected by concepts which make us unhappy, damage our communities and endanger the biological world. These concepts infect us, we become contagious, then we infect those around us.

1/44
#KatesGarrotte We know the sort of concepts they are. They look like this:
–You need more
–Take, don’t give
–Winner takes all
–Greed is good
–Appearances matter
–Those in power deserve their power
–Those with wealth deserve their wealth
–It’s your fault you’re poor

Let’s talk about populism.
Populists pretend complex problems have simple answers.
They like things so simple they become stupid.
They adore binary choices.
They demand you ‘take sides’.
1/10
#populism #populists #propaganda #Johnson #woke #antiwoke Populists like division.
They like an enemy.
If no enemy’s handy, they’ll make one.
They like to act the victim, no matter how rich, powerful or privileged they are.
But, by creating ‘an enemy’, victims are precisely what they tend to produce.

You may think some people are loud, angry & uneducated.
You may think it's because god or nature made them that way.
To the extent they ARE loud, angry & uneducated, it's not because of nature or god.
It's because of how we run our society.
It's because of stuff we can change. The people with the least power over their lives in our society would like even just A LITTLE power over their lives....
Just the beginnings of power....
Just a taster of self-determination....

It's not much to ask, is it?
