🚨 The person who reportedly self-immolated outside the zionist consulate in Boston in 9/11 has surfaced in this Youtube video under the name Matt Nelson. He states, “My name is Matt Nelson and I am about to engage in an extreme act of protest. We are all culpable in the ongoing genocide in Gaza” and calls people to action to stop the US-zionist genocide.
This is the 5th self-immolation in the US in the past year (ATL, DC, NYC, Oklahoma, Boston). This action is already being ignored and depoliticized by mainstream media.

A.I. photos are flooding social media and contributing to an Internet where we can't believe what we see. Spotting A.I. đź“·s is an important media literacy skill.
None of us have time to research every image we see. We just need people to notice BEFORE THEY LIKE OR SHARE that an image might be fake. If unsure, check it or don't share.
I've started drawing some comics explaining the basic of AI spot-checking and media literacy in the age of disinformation. Follow along here or on my Twitter.
As if they haven't been doing this for decades...
“Target Israel and we will target you,” the senators tell Khan, adding that they will “sanction your employees and associates, and bar you and your families from the United States.”
Rather ominously, the letter concludes: “You have been warned.” In a statement to Zeteo, Democratic Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland said, “It is fine to express opposition to a possible judicial action, but it is absolutely wrong to interfere in a judicial matter by threatening judicial officers, their family members and their employees with retribution. This thuggery is something befitting the mafia, not U.S. senators.”
While neither Israel nor the United States are members of the ICC, the Palestinian territories were admitted with the status of a member state in April 2015. Khan, a British lawyer, was appointed as the ICC’s chief prosecutor in February 2021, a week after the court had already decided, by majority, that its territorial jurisdiction extended to “Gaza and the West Bank.”
In the wake of the attacks of Oct. 7, 2023, Khan announced that the court had jurisdiction over any potential war crimes committed both by Hamas militants in Israel and by Israeli forces in Gaza. The ICC, per the Rome Statute of 2002, can charge individuals with war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide – and recent reports suggest Israeli officials increasingly believe that the ICC is preparing arrest warrants for Netanyahu and other senior cabinet and military officials.
On Friday, The Hague-based office of the chief prosecutor published an unprecedented statement on Twitter, calling for an end to threats of retaliation against the ICC and attempts to “impede” and “intimidate” its officials. The statement added that such threats could “constitute an offence against the administration of justice” under the Rome Statute.Â

Antifascist prisoner Krystina "Kita" Charankova was released from prison in Belarus earlier this month, after serving years for the "crimes" of opposing the invasion of Ukraine and being critical of Belarus' dictatorship. The International Anti-Fascist Defence Fund has helped her to find her feet and get re-established now that she's returned to the world. Full story here. If you think it's important to support anti-fascists who've made huge sacrifices defending their communities from fascism, you'd do well to make a contribution to the Defence Fund today!
TWO HOURS AGO: an incredible photo taken by a ut austin student capturing something deeply poetic in my opinion, a line of state troopers eagerly waiting to arrest student protesters standing just behind a sign that reads "what starts here changes the world. its starts with you and what you do each day."
“think of this when people say voting doesn’t make a difference”—it doesn’t make a difference when the party you vote for is not interested in wielding power on behalf of their constituents and back down whenever marginally challenged.
