www.women-in-exile.net08.03. – Nein zu Rassismus, Sexismus und Diskriminierung! – Women In Exile & Friends

I finally had enough evidence & reported my ex-wife in Thailand for abusing our kids, for which her family attacked me. I refused to leave until the Thai gov't stepped in to protect my babies, but, in exchange, I was arrested, spent a month in prison, and was deported.

Been out for a month, but still f-ed up in the head. I don't feel human anymore.

Anyone else ever experience this?

Continued thread

the Menedaz bros are 100% guilty of murder, but people think they deserve a break for whatever reason. THREE innocent black men have been lynched by this system, murdered even tho judges and juries and witnesses and dna and prosecuters and the men themselves say they are innocent. Where is Kim Kardashian, why doesnt she care abt these men? And these stories arent even news, let alone worthy of a Netflix special. Fuck this evil country #ACAB #DEFUND #ABOLISH apnews.com/article/south-carol

click.actionnetwork.orgTell Congress: Abolish the Death Penalty The United States is facing an unprecedented surge in executions, with five inmates put to death or scheduled to be across Alabama, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Texas in just one week. Not since the late 1990s have we seen such a grim milestone. Missouri recently executed Marcellus Williams, despite objections from prosecutors, the victim's family, and some jurors in a case marked by a lack of forensic evidence and mishandling by officials. In Alabama, recent revelations about their execution team are deeply troubling, shedding light on a system rife with violence and misconduct. Brandon McKenzie, a key figure in Alabama's execution team, has been accused of severe violence against prisoners, including smashing a prisoner's head through a window. We must aim a glaring light on the deep-seated flaws within our criminal justice system. And we must double down on our efforts to abolish the death penalty once and for all. Sign the petition: Tell Congress to abolish the death penalty. These systemic issues go beyond individual misconduct - they are a stark reminder of the systemic issues plaguing our criminal justice system—issues that disproportionately affect marginalized and economically disadvantaged communities. The use of capital punishment not only perpetuates cycles of economic disparity and racial injustice but also erodes our values. Wrongful execution shows the risks inherent in maintaining the death penalty, and it underscores the immediate need for comprehensive criminal justice reform. The ethical concerns surrounding execution practices are compounded by the violent histories of those carrying them out and raise serious human rights concerns by justice reform advocates. These cases are not isolated incidents but part of a larger, deeply flawed system. There must be renewed urgency in abolishing the death penalty—a punitive measure that does not align with our vision of a just and equitable society. Sign the petition demanding that Congress abolish the death penalty. Together, we can push for policies that reflect our values of justice, equality, and human dignity. Sign the petition now: Tell Congress to abolish the death penalty.

We absolutely should #abolish prisons.

Until then we absolutely should reduce and end violence within prisons (best method: abolish prisons).

Until then we absolutely should use incomplete and imperfect #HarmReduction strategies (best method to reduce prison harm: don't have prisons).

Lastly, no prisoner should be unsafe, especially since their freedoms are already so constrained. They don't have the freedom to relocate, or live hidden, or live behind a barricade for instance.

But if you're ONLY JUST NOW advocating for #PrisonReform because #DerekChauvin got stabbed, WE SEE YOU 👀

@SamTheGeek Oh, it's a lot worse than collective punishment: it's constructivism. The IDF has a "find targets and bomb them" doctrine usually reserved for low-intensity quickies, the air force is an air force (#abolish), Netanyahu is spending far more time inciting against the army and against everyone else to deflect responsibility than actually deciding how to fight the war.

I'm not going to watch that video. It is hard loving a country and world that just flat out hates you. Targets you. You not safe in your home or out of it. He was calling for his Mama. My heart aches for her too.

You can't fix a system operating as designed. #Abolish the fucker.

I want to work with whomever is against hierarchical systems imposed by colonialism, with whomever is resisting the exploitation and commodification of life. Vegan consumerism will not bring liberation for anyone. But listening to other minoritized groups, building bridges and working together to abolish the oppressive systems that allow the violations and harm committed against any and all marginalized communities will.✊🏽 #abolish
