In this lecture & at @FESonline event ahead of #URC2024 I raised vital issues: UA needs a new social contract, human & nature centered recovery, exercise of Constitutional rights & guarantees inc ownership of land & natural resources by the UA people, not foreigner entities.
Building on historicized political economy of wartime Ukraine since 2014, @YPYurchenko's lecture illustrated that the state as an institution must be redefined.

🔴 A Russian military uniform and a kokoshnik appeared at the White House Halloween celebration.
The scariest Halloween costumes this season.

rs21 extends its unconditional solidarity to marxist intellectual Andreas Malm who has been banned from entering Britain in an act of political repression by the Home Office.

Absolutely chilling. Pleased to support the campaign to reverse this terrible decision. Banning an academic for his (by no means extreme) opinions is an unbelievably dangerous road to go down.
The leading advocate for climate justice and Palestinian rights has been blocked from coming to the UK by the Home Office. Politicians, academics and writers have condemned this outrageous act of censorship.

You would have thought there was someone in government to appreciate the irony of effectively censoring someone who wanted to come here to discuss censorship. Home Office policy making has degenerated into dangerous farce.

Indeed
It’s interesting that Trump is especially interested in rigging the election in Alaska. At exactly the moment when he is trying to give Alaska’s natural resources to Russia.

Absolutely sickening. Very much doubt this is random.
In today's Whitehouse on a Halloween party we a kid wearing a russian military uniform with a modern russian tank forces patch featuring Armata tank.
This is a carefully crafted political message by someone in Trump's inner circle.
This isn't a coincidence.
Troops wearing this patch are currently pillaging and raping Ukrainian children, while their supporters and enablers sends their kids to celebrate Halloween with the USA president.

Russian youth militarism knows no bounds. It is even in the White House.

This
Russian "opposition" and their idiot friends in Europe pretend that once Putin dies, Russia will instantly become a democracy.
In their two brain cells, where current state of affairs is only possible because of Putin, this seems logical.
But it is not true.

Whose kids are those on Halloween at the White House wearing a Soviet uniform and traditional genocidal invaders' dress? Those are administration kids, are they not? So whose?

🇺🇦 WTF?
Can anyone share examples of Caolan's generosity towards Ukraine?
I took a healthy 2 week break from X to go to 🇺🇦 I come back & the biggest sensation is @CaolanReports v @KyivIndependent
A Kyiv Independent reporter is on €900-1,000 a month.
Caolan is on €9-10 k a month on Patron alone for content creation.
Personally speaking "Caolan" is a useful idiot (Typical blogger) who will not let the truth interfere with a good report.
As for those talking about his courage & bravery I would sincerely ask is it the "Off or the F_ck" you do not understand?
Caolan is like a magpie and goes where the money is.
Like so many I have been blocked since he created the click bait story of having a gun pulled on him by a guy who recorded the whole incident causing Caolan to delete it

Today dock workers in many countries will strike over issues ranging from wages and conditions to militarism, arms exports and Israel's violence against the Palestinians.
The demands don't mention Ukraine, but some involved also oppose Ukraine aid 🧵

Capitalism is apparently the most efficient allocation mechanism ever invented, provided you ignore empty houses, homeless people, destroyed food, planned obsolescence, medical bankruptcies, wage theft, monopolies, pollution, bullshit jobs, and periodic financial catastrophes.

Ukraine is the most mine-contaminated country in the world after over 12 years of Russian aggression.
Yet the country responsible for contaminating vast areas of Ukrainian land is now set to play a leading role in global mine action as Russian ambassador has been appointed to lead UN mine action.
“Entrusting this responsibility to a representative of the aggressor state is deeply troubling and undermines trust in the United Nations,” @SpoxUkraineMFA Heorhii Tykhyi has commented.
“This appointment confirms what has been known for years: Russia’s illegitimate occupation of the Soviet Union’s permanent seat on the UN Security Council poisons the entire UN system.”

Russian "humanism" looks like this. Drone operator watched a civilian train in Dnipro and struck it. 14 killed. Another strike on a busy Chernihiv street killed two 15-year-old girls. This isn't just Putin. These are Russians.

Strong support for @KyivIndependent. I'm usually in NAFO's corner, but I'm seeing a good portion of them fumble this issue and that's regrettable.
