#consider, my understanding of these two labels.

terrorist : one who causes terror for political gain.
freedom fighter : one who fights for their freedom and the freedom of a people from oppression.

" #or "? the two are not mutually exclusive. can be #both.
introspect #perception, for any #judgement.
and just because one side uses terror for their political gain (and thus are definitively "terrorist"), does not mean the other side do not and are not.

[(...can you see any examples of this type hypocrisy on the world stage? seen anyone "doth protest too much"?)]

#Propaganda like this has been spreading, not only by Azeri nationalist accounts, but even by state media.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the use of the "∀", seen a few days ago painted on several Azerbaijani military vehicles, is expanding. Its meaning is still unknown to us, but it is being used as war propaganda (and possibly as identification) in the same way as the famous Russian "Z's".

Here are some examples that we have seen on nationalist/pan-Turkish and military social media accounts.

When #xenophobia is popular, #fascists become voices of #democracy : #Konfederacja proposed a referendum on migration policy

1) Do you support #EU relocation of migrants

2) Do you support social benefits for #immigrants?

3) Do you support paying immigrants Polish min pension if they did not pay into system

4) Do you support simplificiation in issueing migration permits to people from countries not culturaly close to #Poland (eg #muslim countries)

5) Do you support the project of the ministry of foreign affairs, which wants to admit into Poland atleast 400,000 migrants per year

A tiny "news" morsel. An appetizer. A factlet. Meant to cheer you up, but nothing else.

Republicans are in 'intellectual collapse' as they push bans on everything that scares them

FTA "The conservatives don't have the confidence that their ideas can be sold on the basis of presenting them as ideas. They have decided that we can't convince people to do what we want and live by our religion, so we will tell the federal government to enforce it. I don't like this book or drag shows. The thing that I feel uncomfortable with, I don't feel confident that I can convince people to come to my side, so I need the power of federal government to ban the things that make me uncomfortable."

Kinda sums up fascism: I don't like your ideas, so I will use force to ban them.

Talk about "snowflakes".

Solidarität mit den verhafteten Antifaschist:innen in Ungarn

Am Sonntag, den 13. Februar 2023 wurden vier Personen in #Budapest verhaftet, drei von ihnen befinden sich seither in den Händen des ungarischen Staates in #Untersuchungshaft. Den Antifaschist:innen wird vorgeworfen, an mehreren Angriffen auf Faschisten vor Ort beteiligt gewesen zu sein. In diesem Zusammenhang wurden heute, am 15. Februar 2023, zudem zwei Wohnungen bei Antifas in #Berlin durchsucht.

Die Verhaftungen in Budapest fanden im Zusammenhang mit dem „Tag der Ehre“ statt, einem der größten Aufmärsche von #Faschisten in #Europa. Jährlich verherrlichen sie ein Selbstmordkommando der deutschen Wehrmacht, ihren ungarischen Kollaborateuren und Einheiten der Waffen SS gegen die Rote Armee.

Diverse rechte Medien und mittlerweile auch die deutsche Boulevard-Presse berichten über die Vorfälle und sparen nicht damit, Namen und Bilder zu veröffentlichen. Gleichzeitig stellen sie das große Neonazi-Schaulaufen als unpolitische Sport-Veranstaltung dar oder verschweigen den Kontext in Gänze und bezeichnen die angegriffenen Faschisten als einfache Passanten.

In einem Land, in dem die faschistoide Regierung mit rassistischen und antisemitischen Äußerungen die Massen hinter sich vereint, ist die Hetzjagd kaum verwunderlich. Alle großen Medien wiederholen ungefragt die Forderung rechtsradikaler Parteien nach einem Verbot „der Antifa“. Die politische Lage im Land ist für Antifaschist:innen, #SintiundRoma, #Queers und andere diskriminierte Gruppen schon lange schwer aushaltbar.

Hinter Gittern sind die inhaftierten Antifaschist:innen eben dieser feindlichen Stimmung, zusätzlich zur Isolation, auch ausgesetzt. Hinzu kommt der desaströse Zustand der ungarischen Knäste, die nicht nur zu den ältesten, sondern auch überfülltesten in der #EU zählen.

Wir solidarisieren uns mit den gefangenen Antifaschist:innen. Wir wünschen allen Genoss:innen vor Ort, die trotz der Umstände die Stellung halten und der faschistischen Basis im Land die Stirn bieten, viel Kraft. Auch sie brauchen unsere Unterstützung, jetzt mehr denn je!

In #Solidarity with the arrested #antifascists in #Hungary

On Sunday, 13. February 2023, four people were arrested in Budapest, three of them have been in the hands of the Hungarian state in pre-trial in pre-trial detention since then. The antifascists are accused of being involved in several attacks on local fascists. In this context, today, February 15, 2023, also two apartments of antifascists in Berlin were searched.

The arrests in Budapest took place in connection with the „Day of Honor„, one of the biggest marches of #fascists in #Europe. Every year they glorify a suicide squad of the German Wehrmacht, their Hungarian collaborators and units of the Waffen SS against the Red Army.

Various #right-wing media and meanwhile also the German tabloid press report about the incidents and do not spare to publish names and pictures. At the same time they present the big #Neo-Nazi parade as a non-political sporting event or conceal the context entirety and describe the attacked fascists as simple passers-by.

In a country where the fascist government unites the masses with racist and anti-Semitic statements, the hunt is hardly surprising. All major media repeat without being asked the demand of radical right-wing parties for a ban of „the Antifa“. The political situation in the country for anti-fascists, Sinti and Roma, queers and other discriminated groups have long been difficult to endure.

Behind bars are the imprisoned antifascists exposed to this hostile atmosphere, in addition to isolation. Added to this the disastrous condition of the Hungarian prisons, which are not only the oldest, but also the most overcrowded in the EU have to be mentioned.

We stand in solidarity with the imprisoned antifascists. We wish all comrades, who despite the circumstances are holding their ground against the fascist base in the country, a lot of strength. Also they need our support, now more than ever!

How it's Going:

"Rep. Madison Cawthorn faces a House Ethics investigation" (May 23, 2022)

Rep. Madison Cawthorn, R-N.C., is under investigation by the House Ethics Committee, which will determine whether the freshman lawmaker violated rules by promoting a cryptocurrency while having a personal financial interest invested and engaged "in an improper relationship" with a member of his staff.

The move comes less than a week after Cawthorn was defeated in the North Carolina Republican primary following weeks of scandals that resulted in backlash from Capitol Hill Republicans. ...

How it started:

"Who is Madison Cawthorn?" (June 24, 2020)

... Cawthorn campaigned as "pro-Trump, pro-life and pro-Second Amendment" and emphasized his family's deep roots in the state, which he said goes back to the Revolutionary War.

"I'm a millennial. I represent an emerging generation of Americans who are tomorrow's leaders, most of whom think that Republicans don't care about the disenfranchised, the hurting and those less fortunate. But nothing could be farther from the truth," Cawthorn said in a campaign video. ...

In the Murdoch family succession battle, Fox News and democracy hang in the balance

A 91-year-old billionaire sits atop a global media empire, while his adult children vie to control the family company in the next generation.

It sounds like the plot of the HBO series Succession, but New York Times journalist Jim Rutenberg says the real-life drama involving Fox News founder Rupert Murdoch and his children, Lachlan, James, Elisabeth and Prudence, rivals anything a screenwriter could dream up.

"I ... have always suspected that the Succession writers have some mole in the family, because it's just too many things they seem to know," Rutenberg says. "It's just got all the drama you want in television, but democracy hinges on its future." ...

This piece is based on a Fresh Air interview of the documentary The Murdochs, playing on CNN+, itself based on an earlier New York Times investigative piece, "Planet Fox" (2019).

Audio: https://ondemand.npr.org/anon.npr-mp3/npr/fa/2022/04/20220421_fa_01.mp3 (42 minutes).

This is very disturbing.
I want to help #Ukraine, but I’d never want to support #extreme_right / #Nazis / #fascists.
I also know that EVERY country has them.

Quoting #Billy_Bragg from his FB post https://www.facebook.com/billybraggofficial/posts/511976200290710:

Yesterday evening I posted a clip of the Ukranian band Beton performing their rewrite of 'London Calling'. According to reports, the song 'Kyiv Calling' was approved by the Clash, with funds raised going to the Free Ukraine Resistance Movement.

After a few hours of discussing the lyrics of the song and whether Joe Strummer would approve of the rewrite, a number of people drew my attention to a series of photographs on the band's Facebook page showing members of the band wearing t-shirts based on the Ramones circular logo.

The word 'Ramones' at the top of the logo had been replaced with the word 'Banderas' and although all of the names within the circle were not visible, the one that was clearly read 'Stepan'. The photos dated from a year ago.

This is deeply troubling. Stepan Bandera was a far-right Ukranian politician who collaborated with the Nazis during the occupation of Ukraine and whose followers were complicit in the Holocaust. That he did these things in the name of Ukranian independence from the Soviet Union has led some present day far right nationalists to adopt his image in their decade long struggle with Russia.

The knock on effect of this has been to allow Putin to smear all those who want a democratic Ukraine free from Russian influence as neo-nazis. The lionisation of Bandera explains his attempt to legitimize the invasion as a campaign of 'denazification', despite the fact that when, during the 2019 Ukrainian elections, all of the major far right Ukrainian parties formed a unified party for the national election, they gained just 2.15% of the vote and failed to secure a single seat in the national parliament. Compare that with the 2009 EU parliament election, where the BNP won 6% of the vote.

I left a message on the band's Facebook page asking them to explain why they were wearing t-shirts that appeared to support Bandera, but after 24 hours, I've had no response, so I've deleted my post.

We can argue about the meaning of 'London Calling' and what Joe Strummer would or wouldn't have said about the lyrical changes, but we can be damn sure that he would not have allowed his song to be utilised by a band that expressed their support for fascists.

Another video: Ukrainian forces beating indian students. Just because India abstained on UN vote against Russia

This is absolutely one of the most disgusting videos I have seen in a long time.

The poor kid is being beating by a group of strong adults for something he probably wasn't even aware of.

This is why I am not supporting the Ukrainians in this conflict, Putin is a lunatic and has to be stopped, but Europe is making a HUGE mistake supporting Ukraine like they are doing and it is going to cost us dearly.
