This is how many bullets they shot on a fucking kid.

Hot take: If you refuse to vote for Biden over his handling of Israel-Gaza, you do not get the right to protest against Trump rounding up all the POC/LGBTQ/neurodivergents and executing them.

Because you let that happen; you doomed millions of lives because Biden isn’t perfect. The Palestinians would be ashamed of you.

And funnily enough, since Trump is 1,000 more Zionist than Biden, you probably also caused their genocide, too.

On the 4th of July 2018 some anarchists in Sydney painted a memorial piece for Dan Shersty and Spit Newborn.

Dan and Spit were young anti-fascist skinheads, punk musicians, and founding members of the Las Vegas chapter of Anti-Racist Action.

On the 4th of July 1998 they were lured into the desert on the outskirts of Vegas and gunned down by a gang of 6 white supremacists, only three of whom ever served time for the murders.

Twenty years on, their memory is kept alive in the daily struggle against racism and fascist terror.

Almost as if Forbes is just a public relations outlet and not critical in any way...

As a 19-year-old sophomore at Stanford, Elizabeth Holmes decided to transform diagnostic medicine so she dropped out of college and used her tuition money to start her own company, Theranos. Ten years later, Holmes, pictured here holding a micro-vial, is on the cutting edge of medical technology — her new blood testing method allows hundreds of tests to be run using only a few drops of blood. And, Holmes’ methods are cheaper, faster, more accurate, and less invasive than conventional methods which often require a separate vial of blood for every test. As Holmes told Wired.com earlier this year, “I started this company because I wanted to spend my life changing our health care system. When someone you love gets really sick, most of the time when you find out, it’s too late to be able to do something about it. It’s heartbreaking… We wanted to make actionable health information accessible to people everywhere at the time it matters most. That means two things: being able to detect conditions in time to do something about them and providing access to information that can empower people to improve their lives.”

Every day Landry and the ultra right-wing legislature in Baton Rouge launch a new attack against Louisiana’s workers. They figure they can get away with it because Landry’s corporate funders—the real force behind the attacks—have near total control of news and social media, which they count on to keep us misinformed, ignorant, and divided. We can’t let this situation stand.

"We’ve launched the Louisiana Worker to get out the facts and spread news of organizing to working-class Louisianans across the state. We need to break through the lies and censorship of the big business media and expose the real cause of our hardships. We need to show the power of working class unity and fight back.
