Never doubt that the formerly “Left-leaning” Guardian newspaper has been largely neutralised by UK security services & is now a platform trusted by the security state to amplify its information operations! “How The Guardian Sells Imperialism To Progressives” by Nate Bear in Do Not Panic on Substack @uk_politics @guardian@flipboard.social @palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai @palestine@lemmy.ml @iran @palestinenews@gts.liberated.press “The Guardian is an imperial rag masquerading as respectable opinion for progressives but feeding subtle propaganda designed to maintain western dominance and shepherd imperial violence” https://open.substack.com/pub/donotpanic/p/how-the-guardian-sells-imperialism #Press #SocialMedia #Journalism #UK #Guardian #Imperialism #Progressives #Israel #Russia #Empire #SecurityState #Iran #Israel #Zionism #Cuba #US #Trump

@greenpeace@mastodon.social #Shell has more money and assets than most developing nations. It is an #empire without sovereign land, but behaves like it owns everything and everyone. This #injustice cannot stand.

“Leaked: How Britain exploits US Empire” by Kit Klarenberg in Al Mayadeen English @uk_politics “Highly revealing leaked files amply spell out how the alliance is a key mechanism by which Washington’s ‘interest’ in Europe and West Asia is insidiously maintained, via London’s covert and overt machinations. NATO provides an invaluable ‘umbrella’, by which Britain projects economic, intelligence, military, and political power throughout these regions and the wider world, while countering competitors” https://english.almayadeen.net/articles/analysis/leaked--how-britain-exploits-us-empire #Press #SocialMedia #Journalism #Britain #NATO #US #Leaks #Ukraine #Iran #Empire #OperationEpsteinFury #OperationEpicMistake #RegimeChange #WarCrimes #CrimesAgainstHumanity #GCHQ #FiveEyes #Syria #Russia #Putin

Well that's unhealthy .. and ominous. And needs to be treated - either to help them get better, or to keep them away from civilised society. #usa #war #conflict #empire

"... Those upper classes, to rule, needed to make concessions to the middle class, without damage to their own wealth or power, at the expense of slaves, Indians, and poor whites. This bought loyalty. And to bind that loyalty with something more powerful even than material advantage, the ruling group found, in the 1760s and 1770s, a wonderfully useful device. That device was the language of liberty and equality, which could unite just enough whites to fight a Revolution against England, without ending either slavery or inequality." #US #Politics #Democrat #Capitalism #WhiteSupremacy #Empire

I'll keep saying it because it seems like it needs to be said over and over. Until we reckon with our history, specifically with the genocide and slavery, the settler colonialism and violence, we'll be a haunted land. The violence of capitalism and the state will persist because we let it persist. I've recently read two blog posts reflecting on 250 years of the US, both by white middle class men. Neither post acknowledges their position in the white supremacy that continues to sit at the center of #US #empire. Both seemingly wanting to believe in a fictional story of progress, of exceptionalism and #democracy. Both posts seemingly accept that the old normal may be lost but still cling to it. It seems to me that middle-aged liberals of the US are now at the edge of the world they knew, still pretending that the "progress" they've seen in their lives was enough. It was never enough because it is just a mask put on empire. #Politics #Capitalism #Genocide https://ndncollective.org/250-years-of-lies-500-years-of-uprising/

The part of the Declaration of Independence they've been glossing over for centuries is why we are here in this moment. Rebecca Nagle is a Cherokee journalist, and unpacks the past and present for Democracy Now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K90ynJ7_VyU The "First America" podcast is brilliant. https://www.pushkin.fm/podcasts/first-america #Indigenous #History #USHistory #Cherokee #Colonization #Empire #America250 #Podcast

The U.S. military’s globe-spanning presence confuses national defense with imperial projection, a costly error history keeps repeating. Every overextended base and intervention is a lesson in the limits of power we refuse to learn. #usmilitary #ForeignPolicy #Empire

The logic of Musk’s empire is total. X shapes the discourse. Grok automates it. Grokipedia rewrites the historical record. Starlink can deliver it all, everywhere, to everyone. Each layer reinforces the others. It’s not about winning arguments in the public sphere. It’s about building a replacement. If Musk gets his way, the echo chamber of tomorrow will reach to space and back.

The secretive network offers a glimpse into just how central one of the world’s richest men, who has a net worth of more than $650 billion, has made #Texas to his operations & ambitions. More than 50 of his at least 90 companies there are subsidiaries or other entities affiliated with his #business #empire, such as the rocket company #SpaceX & the electric vehicle maker #Tesla, as well as his nonprofit #Musk Foundation. #law #fraud #elite #impunity #money #power
