If a single grain of sand were to fall on you, would you suffocate & die? No, it's just one grain, but thousands of grains, millions of grains.. That's how activism will be effective to get rid of DT & Musk, millions of people doing small acts of defiance each day, cumulatively adds up to a LOT. It weighs them down, slows them, costs them in dollars time & reputation, leading to their inevitable downfall. Keep fighting! Small acts matter.

Inundated with daily bad news from the Media causes many to want to 'drop out' & ignore, but important issues shouldn't be ignored, and anger against wrongs can be a strong base for positive change, it's important to stay informed, and equally important to maintain your level of coping & sanity, a balance of both is perfect. Just don't keep ignoring important current events, be part of the solution through group thinking & action.

This is situation in #NoviSad now. Last night, a girl, student, was brutally beaten for pasting posters calling for a protest - on trash cans. 4 men paid by ruling party brutally beat her with baseball bats.
This morning,
the Prime Minister resigned.
It turns out that his son is in league with thugs. Criminals.
All of Serbia is on its feet,
every city is on the street.
#NoviSad has less than 300k inhabitants, look that crowd

Today at 10 am, a 24-hour #blockade of a very important and busy intersection in #Belgrade began.
The demands of the students have not been met, the Universities in #Serbia are blocked until the demands are fulfilled,
the citizens are protecting the students and pupils from the attacks of the phalanx of the ruling party.

Tulip Sadiq resigns (at last)

It really is not a good look for a Labour MP, two murderous dictators in one photo... Or is it?

Labour really do know how to pick them....

Is there an organisation that measures how much the European central government is 'in the pocket' of #bigtech?

I'm a HUGE fan of the #DMA but I just saw an interview with #yanisvaroufakis where he said that #statecapture in the centre if government is a big problem.

Heute in Graz am Europaplatz: Am Parteitag der ÖVP gehen Aktivist*innen von FFF Graz auf die Straße, um die ÖVP für ihre verfehlte und verantwortungslose Klimapolitik zu kritisieren. Im Angesicht der drohenden Klimakatastrophe braucht es in erster Linie ein Klimaschutzgesetz statt Korruption. Auch Maßnahmen wie das Erneuerbare-Wärme-Gesetz dürfen nicht länger aufgeschoben werden. Jetzt muss gehandelt werden!
