Is anyone surprised? It's payback time, Democrats waited four years to get the ball rolling. Nothing will stop them now.

Except no Democrats were prosecuted in the Trump era. The right accepts political opposition. The left criminalises it.  Same in Spain, the Netherlands, Italy, Israel and France, where prominent political figures all face criminal charges at the hands of the left-controlled magistrature.

US-backed right wing Colombian government is currently conducting a massacre against its own people. It's interesting that there's a noticeable silence among major human rights groups in news and social media like twitter. I wonder why.

Ah yes, I've seen quite a lot of articles talking about the protests and police brutality there, but not on big news websites indeed. Only on some obscure blogs like The New York Times, BBC, Reuters, CBS and a few others nobody has ever heard of.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Currently featured prominently on BBC: Covid patent, Myanmar, Hong Kong.

Colombia : zzzzz

Btw: did HRW tweeted about it already, because they tweeted 200 times about Navalny in a one year period.

200 injured in Jerusalem thanks to the violent right wing israeli government. International media is silent.

200 injured thanks to Hamas who started preaching to go and fight, BTW https://www.timesofisrael.com/major-attack-in-central-israel-foiled-as-3-gunmen-shot-near-military-base/

There's more coverage on the death of Obama's dog over the ongoing violence in Colombia and Jerusalem. I guess there's no need for performative human rights activism since Colombia and Jerusalem is not in China.
