#Complacency

[martyr-mayhem]

every individual of every organization that aids and abets the president's immoral actions is complicit in wrongdoing. the national park service is complicit in the transition to a fascist government.

every individual's actions matter right now. we all contribute to what happens or what doesn't happen. so have some fucking courage to do the right thing and be on the good side of history.

P.S. an executive order isn't a law or rule. it's simply an announcement of the president's intentions. no one was actually ordered to do this.

If you aren't going to gaslight yourself into complacency, you can't expect someone else to do it for you!!! Good Morning!!!

From the very beginning of this journey, I have been on a mission to rescue our nation from a failed and evil corrupt political establishment.

I will NEVER QUIT, I will NEVER BEND, I will NEVER BREAK, and I will NEVER YIELD, not even in the face of death itself!

THIS 👆 is the living sacrifice you commit to for God because it's for humanity, His people.

He dwells inside of each and everyone of us. Seek Him out within and you will find the strength to fight against ALL the evil in God's army. If you don't know where he is: "How can you accept His presence?"

There's more the Bible talks about, keeping your thoughts pure and positive.

Everything you need to know is there, it's just so many people have become complacent and rely on other people to pollute their minds. 🤔

It really feels like Trump's hyperbrutal EO on trans issues is getting sorta swept aside in public discourse. Man is trying to use a bunch of different legal aparati to try to get as many workplaces as possible to have to ban trans people from bathrooms related to their gender, a thing we know increases the risk trans people have of being assaulted in bathrooms, and the media is softballing it as being about X gender markers on passports. I fucking hate America, and I hate even more Americans' unwillingness to treat transgender people like our issues are a priority when the government promises sweeping oppression.

When did I become so complacent?

To give up on so many dreams

And live my life one day at a time

With no visions of the future

Or fantasies of the past

This is not who I am meant to become

DO NOT DO THIS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!!!!!!

Make sure you DO NOT use a vpn and private browser!!

REPORT HONEST INFRACTIONS ONLY —> http://enddei.ed.gov <— ASSIST NOTABLE 47th US PRESIDENT

❌ Examples to NOT follow: ❌

The Department of Education worked very hard to make this resource accessible to emails of all origins, including fiction. YOU DEFINITELY SHOULD NOT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS GENEROUS GIFT!!!!!

Instead, join me in thanking the department for their trust in the current presidential administration, and for their honesty with the public!! The saying usually goes that a hit dog will holler; however, yet another government entity proves that false. When the wannabe-king raises a hand to strike, they roll over regardless of constitutionality, displaying the vibrant yellow and green of their underbelly for all to see. The only morally just option for the American people is to follow suit!!!

Thank you for reading! And remember - COMPLACENCY WITH CRUELTY IS COOL!!!!! 🫡🧑‍⚖️🇺🇸

There is too much bad news to justify complacency. There is too much good news to justify despair.

Tips for organisers - Beware the "lefty deadbeat"

During organising, you'll come across plenty of people who are at the very least vocally sympathetic to the clause.

They'll quote Marx, they'll know the entire history of the Spanish civil war, and they'll share revolutionary memes on their social media pages.

But the second they're required for some form of action or task, they'll flake, they'll make excuses, and, at worst, they'll buddy up to the boss.

It's handy to know who has left-wing sympathies, but certainly do not recruit them to the organising team or IWW simply because they define themselves as a "leftist".

Someone you had previously written off as a "conservative" or "liberal" might actually end up being a fantastic workplace organiser!

As a final note, remember that you're organising with the working class, not just the left!

Space Deer - No. 58: Nah

[the-garbanzo-annex-jr]

by Michael Oren

Why, when the Israelis were so well protected by Iron Dome, did they have to devastate Gaza? That was the question posed by so many leaders, journalists, and much of world opinion. When Israelis had access to bomb shelters and early warning systems, why then exact vengeance on the innocent Palestinians who had neither? Interviewing on CNN during the operation, I was asked—twice, without irony—why doesn’t Israel provide Iron Dome to Gaza?

Israel, it seemed, had the right to defend itself but only passively, shooting Iron Dome until it ran out of interceptors. The fact that millions of Israelis were huddled in those shelters and traumatized by the sirens, that tourists canceled their trips to the country and high-tech funds withdrew their investments, were insignificant compared to the thousands of Palestinians, whom, according to much of the world were purposely killed, maimed, and displaced by the IDF. And the fact that, even with a ninety-five percent success rate, five out of every one hundred rockets penetrated Israel’s defense, was routinely dismissed. While Israeli bombs and artillery shells could wipe out entire neighborhoods—so the argument held—Palestinians rockets were little more than firecrackers.

That reality reached monstrous proportions after the onslaught of October 7. Over the next eight months, Hamas would fire more than 12,000 rockets at Israel, but Iron Dome once again proved more than ninety percent effective. “Only” nineteen Israeli civilians were killed by rocket fire. By contrast, the Gaza Health Authority—a euphemism for Hamas—claimed that the IDF killed more than 30,000 Palestinians. Though half of the dead were terrorists, the world accused Israel of indiscriminately bombing and intentionally starving civilians. Alongside the “D Word” was now another: G, for genocide.

Welcome to the other side of Iron Dome—its soft underbelly. The system surely saves lives and prevents larger wars, but it also serves some the terrorists’ most fundamental and long-term interests. The “D Word,” I’ll explain in Part II, is only the beginning.

“Technology tends toward avoidance of risks by investors. Uncertainty is ruled out if possible. People generally prefer the predictable. Few recognize how destructive this can be, how it imposes severe limits on variability and thus makes whole populations fatally vulnerable to the shocking ways our universe can throw the dice.” ― Frank Herbert, Heretics of Dune
