🇯🇵🚨 Japan’s PM arrives in London with zero official reception — just the aircraft crew.
No red carpet. No formal welcome.
This isn’t random protocol. It reflects how her direction is being received internationally.
While pushing militarization, surveillance bills, and closer alignment with certain powers, Japan’s image as an independent, peace-oriented nation takes hits.
Japanese citizens have been clear in their protests — defending Article 9, privacy, and the postwar peace that defined their country’s dignity for decades.
The people want a Japan respected for its principles, not diminished by leadership that prioritizes foreign agendas over national sovereignty and public will.
True strength comes from listening to your own citizens and upholding the constitution that brought stability.
Solidarity with the Japanese people standing for peace and self-respect.
The most dangerous weapon used against Africa wasn't the gun.
It was the education system that taught us to hate our own history, worship their God, speak their language, and believe that their way is the only "civilized" way.
Decolonize your mind first. The rest will follow
They don't want you to know that Africa is the richest continent on earth.
They want you to think it's just poverty, wars, and safaris.
Because a people who know their true worth are impossible to exploit.
Wake up Africans ✊🏿🌍
When billionaires and politicians use energy as a weapon it's the working class that suffers
⚡️JUST IN: Iran has now Redirected its LPG exports from Pakistan to Afghanistan, where it continues on to China
Iranian Billionaire Babak Zanjani states that his company will no longer sell cheap Liquefied Petroleum Gas to Pakistan, even if the borders were to reopen
He also notes that the price of 12-kg LPG cooking gas cylinder will rise to 10,000 Pakistani rupees ($36)
They want a commission of inquiry for their hostages.
They don't want one for the children they bombed in Gaza. Make it make sense. 🤡🇵🇸
They drain your resources.
Then they give you 1% of it back as "Aid" and call themselves heroes.
And some of our leaders clap for them. Make it make sense.
Why do we still accept this cycle? 👇🏾🌍
The Economist loves to criticize leaders who challenge Western economic dominance. They are terrified of a multipolar world.
Indonesia’s broken labour market has become worse on Prabowo Subianto’s watch, with falling middle-class real wages, a huge black market and high levels of graduate unemployment economist.com/leaders/2026/1…

あなたは平和のメッセージを掲げている一方で、米国や欧州は、あなたが非難している戦争に資金や武器を供給している。
国連は、あなたが指摘する不平等を生み出している勢力そのものに人質に取られている。
いつものように、空虚な言葉に過ぎない。
A British journalist says the UK should stop sending £136M in aid to Nigeria because of "corruption" and that Nigeria is "too wealthy."
Let's be clear: The UK doesn't send aid to help Africa. They use it to control our policies, dump their excess goods and claim moral superiority.
We don't want their handouts. We want our stolen artifacts back and fair trade. Keep your £136M.
Macron is getting tear-gassed by his own people while his military is busy occupying Africa. The audacity to lecture us about democracy. 🤡🇫🇷
Police estimate 110,000 people protested in the French capital in a march that's ending with police firing tear gas and jets of water cannon. apnews.com/article/france-pr…
In China, kids look up to the scientists who built their nation.
In Africa, the West floods our screens with Hollywood, influencers and pastors to keep us distracted while they steal our resources. And our leaders let them.
We have been conditioned to worship entertainment instead of innovation.
Until Africa starts building engineers instead of consumers, we will remain slaves to the West.
Their ideas must be tested against the IMF, Western NGOs, and foreign military bases. We don't need more anniversary tweets. We need leaders today who have the courage to say NO to the West like they did.

Decolonization is the only solution
You carry a message of peace while the US and Europe fund and arm the wars you are complaining about.
The UN is a hostage to the very powers creating the inequality you speak of. Empty words as usual.
I just arrived in Egypt.
Amid intensifying conflicts, I carry a message with me:
We need to stop the widening of war, protect civilians & create the political space for diplomacy & peace.
We must tackle the inequalities that divide societies – & stop the conflicts that are multiplying human suffering & pushing an already unequal world further apart.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The Houthis have attacked commercial vessels and arbitrarily detained UN personnel. The Security Council demanded an end to these attacks, and Guterres himself condemned the detentions. How can we trust an agreement with a militia responsible for these actions?

They are being kicked out of West Africa, so they are pivoting to East Africa.
Earlier this year, France docked 3 warships and deployed 800 troops in Mombasa, Kenya.
They call it "security cooperation." We call it occupation. Why are foreign troops still on our soil? 🇫🇷🌍
Save this. Let’s talk. 👇🏾
Look at the map of their bases. They are forced out of Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger. But they are clinging to Ivory Coast, Senegal, and Djibouti, and now pushing into Kenya.
They don't want to protect us. They want to protect their access to our uranium, oil, and gold.
True independence means NO foreign troops on African soil. ✊🏾
You were never supposed to see this.
King Leopold II cut off the hands of African children in the Congo to prove he didn't waste bullets. Over 10 million murdered.
Yet the West still adores him. Statues, museums, and stolen wealth built on our blood.
Save this post before they report it. 🧵👇🏾
Trump's approval is falling, but US foreign policy remains the same: funding wars, backing genocides, and bullying the Global South.
It doesn't matter who sits in the White House. The Empire never changes. 🌍
Democrats have a 10-point advantage over Republicans nationwide in voters' choice in their own congressional district, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS. President Donald Trump's approval rating sits at 33% among US adults, the CNN Poll of Polls average shows, and cost-of-living concerns, including the economic fallout from the war with Iran, weigh heavily on many voters' minds.
But the red makeup of this year's Senate map should not be underestimated. cnn.it/3Wo0gP7
