They want to tell you the boycotts don’t work…except Target has already lost over 16 billion since they trashed DEI. Walmart stores are empty & while I can’t find figures on losses…truth will out eventually. And Tesla alone has lost over 750 Billion.
People aren’t flying to US.
Keep up the good work people. You may not see the results published and they may say it doesn’t work, but it clearly does.

"It's not too late to stop this train, although it gets more difficult with every day that goes by, every media outlet that rolls over and pays off, every law firm that grovels before Trump. The key — as it has been throughout history — is to mobilize public opinion...

History suggests that mobilizing 3.5% of the populace of a country is enough to produce change"

I slept better after donating to #unicef #gaza

Was upset about Israel targeting and killing 2 reporters yesterday, one for #aljazeera the other for #palestinetoday. Was upset about #ICE knocking doors on campus looking for another Columbia student protester “obstructing US foreign policy”.

Decided a donation was a good way to #resist a foreign policy of #genocide.

Warning: When you admit a bully has power over you, that bully's demands and attacks will only increase.

It still might be early enough to fight back and win! Attack the legality of the money withholding on grounds of Presidential overreach and violation of Constitutional Powers.

Good morning world! Here's your #GifsArtidote breakfast:

"#Anarchism is the idea that everyone is entitled to complete self-determination. No law, government, or decision-making process is more important than the needs and desires of actual human beings. People should be free to shape their relations to their mutual satisfaction, and to stand up for themselves as they see fit".

"The law in authoritarian states protects the criminality of the powerful. It revokes due process, basic freedoms and the rights of citizenship. It is an instrument of repression. It is a very small step from the stripping of rights from a legal resident holding a green card to the stripping of rights of any citizen. This is what is coming."

This is Sukaina Rajwani. Her daughter Fatema is one of the Filton 18, currently incarcerated under terrorism legislation for her part in attempting to disrupt the weapons manufacturing pipeline running from the UK to Israel at the Elbit Systems factory in Bristol.
Fatema wrote this poem from her prison cell.
If you're in London on Thursday and wish to show your solidarity with these political prisoners, the trial continues at the Old Bailey.

Impeachment is right there in the Constitution.

We need to start demanding it.

This applies equally in the UK and, I imagine, across the western world, because people be fuckin' stupid.

"People think it’s 2019. They think they can’t have covid in 2025. They still believe in old archetypes about the responsibility of the state to the citizen. They think the state protected them with vaccines and that this protection meant they could go back to normal. But normal is over, gone, dead."

"We may be at this resistance business for a while, so take care of yourself so you can keep taking care of human rights, truth, justice, and the natural world."

Beautiful stuff as always from Rebecca Solnit, and a necessary read.

Elon Musk Is the One Who Set Tesla on Fire

Protesters are the least of this company’s problems.

"Musk’s business troubles go well beyond the #TeslaTakedown protests... The myriad #safety issues plaguing #Tesla point to much broader issues with the company’s #business model. Its competitors might just be better at making #cars. The #Trump administration’s own policies aren’t helping, either."

In response to #Trump calling the New York Times "a failing newspaper" and "the enemy of the people," I decided to take out a $20 annual subscription to support them. During these critical times, we must stand behind independent #journalism however we can, ensuring they remain exactly that: independent and critical.

Under threat from #Trump, #ColumbiaUniversity agrees to policy changes

By JAKE OFFENHARTZ
Updated 7:19 PM EDT, March 21, 2025

NEW YORK (AP) — "Columbia University agreed Friday to put its Middle East studies department under new supervision and overhaul its rules for protests and student discipline, acquiescing to an extraordinary ultimatum by the Trump administration to implement those and other changes or risk losing billions of dollars in federal funding.

"As part of the sweeping reforms, the university will also adopt a new definition of antisemitism and expand 'intellectual diversity' by staffing up its Institute for Israel and Jewish Studies, according to a letter published Friday by the interim president, Katrina Armstrong.

"The announcement drew immediate condemnation from some faculty and free speech groups, who accused the university of caving to President Donald Trump’s largely unprecedented intrusion upon the school’s academic freedom.

"'Columbia’s #capitulation endangers #AcademicFreedom and #CampusExpression nationwide,' Donna Lieberman, the executive director of the New York #CivilLibertiesUnion said in a statement.

"Earlier this month, the Trump administration pulled $400 million in research grants and other funding over the university’s handling of protests against Israel’s military campaign in Gaza. As a precondition to restoring those funds — along with billions more in future grants — federal officials last week demanded the university immediately enact nine separate reforms to its academic and security policies."

🎶 Well they call this the land of plenty
And for them I guess it's true
For the rich and mighty capitalists
Not for workers like me and you

Well now what can we do about it
To these men of power and might
Well I'll tell you mister capitalist
We are going to fight! fight! fight! 🎶

This is 3 blocks away, 2 hours after doors opened. That is a looping line going down 3 blocks from the stadium entry, then it loops back on inside of sidewalk. There are 3 entry points surrounding stadium. Each is like this!
