All of Ed Sheeran’s openers have now withdrawn from the Looper Tour. Please realize how big this is. This is what unity looks like. Billionaires are terrified of people realizing how strong they can be when we come together for a cause. Continue speaking out. Support the new artists that are deciding to put their careers at risk to take this stance.

Umar Khalid, arrested on this date 6 years ago. Someone who should have been in a university is in jail for the last 6 years WITHOUT trial. What a travesty of justice! #UmarKhalid6YearsOfInjustice

A new low in academic publishing? An article accepted for publication in The Manchester School now has a required authors agreement from @wileypublishing to hand over all rights for use by AI companies! Authors please read your agreements carefully to prevent such appropriation!

But seriously, can we stop treating capitalist Iran as an anti-imperial tour de force? It’s embarrassing.

Precisely! Some of us are tired of the post-structuralists.
James Edwards 🦖🦕@TheNadohsAug 4
Orientalism is methodologically post-structural, owing to Foucalt and Derrida rather than Marx, its principle concern is with culture and power not capital. Think what you will of the book, but this reads as failure to meet the work on it's terms from the outset.

a pal reminded me of this: "to let things slide for the sake of peace and friendship when a person has clearly gone wrong, and refrain from principled argument because he is an old acquaintance, a fellow townsman, a schoolmate, a close friend, a loved one, an old colleague

Paying tributes to Periyar & Ambedkar in the morning, showering flowers on a Marx statue by noon and appointing your astrologer to a govt post by evening. Vijay truly believes in ideological diversification 😭

BJP cannot be 'normalized' in Kerala. For decades, forces, including the media, have attempted to legitimize them, aiming acceptance for one of the most vicious politics on the planet. Three seats is not normal. It's unacceptable. And eroding that remains our priority.

BJP supporters in all parts of India are celebrating the loss of DMK in TN and LDF in Kerala. Paints a clear picture, doesn't it? UDF is not a challenge for them. Hell, TVK just might be them in the immediate future. The southern front has fallen.

This is the part that people don't seem to understand. The assumption that the UDF-LDF rotation is somewhat a standard political trajectory for Kerala is completely untrue.

Replying to @sarayupani
UDF will bring in Liberal permission structures that will allow NDA to capture more seats It's a bad situation for now

the left government is not above criticism which most of you are right about but supporting a political party whose ideals have been more volatile than a penny stock is kinda funny to me. congRSS has always been an anti working class, casteist, and soft hindutva propogating+
