Has anyone watched the series Babylon Berlin? Is it worth watching?
sometimes the whole newspaper of manchester cotton mill owners thing really jumps out theguardian.com/business/2024/…
I’ve written about the Indian state’s extremely alarming persecution of Amrit Wilson, who has been banned from entering India and accused of engaging in ‘anti-India activities’ - all because she wrote an article for Tribune in defence of the Indian farmers’ protests.

Yesterday marked 30 years since the end of apartheid in South Africa. It ended because ordinary people had the courage to stand up for humanity. Global solidarity was the answer then, and it’s the answer now. We will carry on marching for peace, justice and a free Palestine.
Finally watched both 'Anatomy of a Fall' & 'The Zone of Interest'. Both excellent, obviously; the latter is the best portrayal of Nazi society I think I've ever seen. Sandra Hüller is a captivating actor: so sympathetic & awkward in the one, the very picture of evil in the other.
🚨 NEW: Labour are increasing its efforts to impress Donald Trump’s team with David Lammy meeting several Trump allies [@Tony_Diver]
Stunning pictures of the 50th anniversary celebrations of Portugal's Carnation Revolution by Reuters photojournalist Pedro Nunes 😍 1/2
In a sign of Modi’s growing authoritarianism, the veteran journalist Amrit Wilson has been banned from India and labelled a threat to the state. Her crime? Writing in support of India’s farmers’ protests for Tribune. tribunemag.co.uk/2024/04/solida…
'These people had opinions on their country's foreign policy - now look at them scream in pain. Here's a close up.' Sick freaks.

Great to catch up with @_isaacrose yesterday at the Liverpool launch for his fantastic & timely new book, 'Rentier City: Manchester and the Making of the Neoliberal Metropolis' (@RepeaterBooks), in conversation with @abioconnor_ - amidst the hidden abode of (beer) production!
OTD in 1944, Italy, partisan struggle in the north climaxed in a chain of well-executed anti-Fascist uprisings in Genoa, Turin, and Milan.
“They’ll say we’re disturbing the peace, but there is no peace. What really bothers them is that we are disturbing the war.” Howard Zinn 1971
The level of violence being deployed here is shocking. An educator trying to intervene to protect the welfare of her students is viciously thrown to the ground by police officers for no apparent reason. Even the most basic duties of academics are being criminalised.

The fuller video shows that Prof. Fohlin was rightly horrified at how the cops were brutalizing a student -- a knee on the student's head.

It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.

@MiddleEastEye Here’s @EmoryUniversity economics professor Caroline Fohlin knocked to the ground with her head on the concrete. Her glasses are thrown off. She shouts “I’m a professor” #Gaza #Protesters
‘When German soldiers used to come to my studio and look at my pictures of Guernica, they'd ask, “Did you do this?”. And I'd say, “No, you did.”’ — Pablo Picasso The destruction of Guernica by the Nazi Luftwaffe during the Spanish Civil War took place on this day in 1937.
“I am a Holocaust survivor. I experienced as a child every single thing a Gazan child is experiencing on a daily basis. There’s no excuse 4 the slaughter of 15K children. I am proud to be here with you.” Amazing Jewish solidarity at encampment at GWU #FreePalestine #Occupy4Gaza
Fantastic conversation overheard on the Merseyrail: "Have you watched 'Threads'?" "'Friends'? Yeah I've seen that." "No, 'Threads', it's from the eighties." "Is it like Blackadder?"
A wonderful piece in which Antonio de Figueiredo credits the anti-colonial struggle with exposing the brutality of Portuguese society and toppling the dictatorship.

This is spot on. My feeling is that all these people berating young people about their activism a) are jealous of their conviction and adherence to principles (something that the sneering pundits convinced themselves doesn't matter); and...
You don't risk your safety and future prospects to be fashionable. But it's telling how a whole media class can't comprehend taking a principled stand because they themselves believe in nothing and act only in self interest.
Have been trying to find the words to describe this phenomenon for a while now and obviously @LalehKhalili does it perfectly. People who have to justify their moral failings to themselves externalise their shame and rage towards those who try to exist otherwise.

“I’m being used to whitewash the story of empire and I’m not going for it.” As he releases his memoir Track Record, George the Poet explains why he turned down an MBE and how the UK's political culture has moved "in favour of the elites".
Goddamnit this is obscene. These are desperate people who have been through hell. And you take away their freedom as a political fucking stunt. Sunak is an affront to civilised values. theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/a…
From the opening pages of Vol. 1 - & the definition of value in terms of time - to the closing pages of Vol. 3 and the linkage of freedom to the reduction of the working day, for Marx it is clear that time is the key object of social struggle (& communism=free time).
