Elon Musk vs. Nordic Labor. My op-ed in Jacobin. #UnionsForAll
Elon Musk is trying to export Tesla’s anti-union model to Sweden, and workers across Scandinavia are launching solidarity actions to thwart him. We should be embracing the Nordic countries’ model of strong worker rights, not Tesla’s elitist union busting. jacobin.com/2024/01/elon-mus…

Seeing Genocide by @AishaAriella
'A genocidal regime is one that produces, cultivates, trades, uses, and legitimizes these forms of violence while at the same time socializing its citizens to see them as necessary for their protection and well-being'.

Enough!
It is just horror after horror after horror.
Remember these precious and beautiful lives. They are human beings with names and faces. And they are being indiscriminately slaughtered.
What unconscionable inhumanity. We need a ceasefire, now.

We are horrified by news coming from Jabalia camp where high numbers of people have reportedly been killed by an Israeli airstrike. After the attack, many wounded people arrived to Al Shifa hospital where our teams helped to provide emergency medical care...

Khamenei's security apparatus have arrested Shervin Hajipour after publishing this song; singing out ppl yearnings & grievances that they posted during #IranProtests for #MahsaAmini.

So many rumours that Russia's about to close its borders; so many men fleeing to avoid fighting in Ukraine (👇 source claims 261k so far)
Images of crowds of people running from Russia are embarrassing for the Kremlin which portrays its invasion as a just, noble & popular cause
‼️Источник в АП рассказал «Новой. Европа», что после объявлении «частичной» мобилизации из РФ выехала 261 тысяча мужчин, о чем сообщило ФСБ. Тем не менее, «атмосфера в АП такая, что силовики и Минобороны смогут убедить Путина закрыть выезд пока не поздно».

In Kerman's Azadi Square tonight, a woman sits on top of a utility box, takes off her headscarf and cuts her hair as people chant "death to the dictator" on the fifth night of protests in Iran over the death of #MahsaAmini in custody of morality police.

I recognize that building… that’s the Izyum district government building. And those are Ukrainian troops raising the blue-and-yellow 🇺🇦 and firing off a few celebratory rounds. Incredible.

Nice. Bit of cyber and info ops at the same time. What modern militaries call the multi-domain battle.
TVs hacked yet again in occupied #Crimea. President @ZelenskyyUa's address to Crimeans being played on all channels.

Det er besværligt, og det er kontroversielt, men jeg tror snart, vi bliver nødt til at tale om forskelsbehandlingen af kvinder i politik i en udgave af #dkpol, @esben_schj

It is a crucial moment to close the long-standing discussion once and for all and decide on Ukraine's membership in the #EU. Discussed with @eucopresident further effective assistance and the heroic struggle of Ukrainians for their free future.
