The earth is not dying, it is being killed, and those who are killing it have names and addresses.” Utah Phillips

Capitalism is burning up our planet, devastating ecosystems and communities in its ceaseless hunger for profit. Everything is for sale, and the one great goal is growth: producing and consuming ever more stuff, even as it kills us.

This engine of mass destruction is driven by burning forests: the long-dead forests of fossil fuels, and the living forests of today.

Though we all play our parts in the consumer system, some people play much bigger parts than others. The people killing the earth are those directing the machine – and crushing any resistance to it.

Stunning data from South Africa suggest Omicron may be the end of Covid (and of Covid vaccines)

By Alex Berenson | Unreported Truths | December 11, 2021 A six-tweet thread from a South African engineer sums up the apparent state of play: Omicron appears more contagious but far milder than earlier strains of Covid. South African physicians and hospitals have leaned in this direction all along. But now we have close to […]

Could Omicron save us from COVID?

If this new variant proves to be as mild as initial reports suggest, it could actually help us on our way to herd immunity if it were allowed to spread.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, who is not known for a tendency to understate the risks of COVID-19, has said the Omicron variant may not be all that bad:

Could Omicron save us from COVID?

Though it’s too early to really make any definitive statements about it, thus far it does not look like there’s a great degree of severity to it … Thus far, the signals are a bit encouraging.”

While Fauci also says the new variant’s mutations appear to have made it more capable of infecting people, that may not be a bad thing if it shows itself to…

Dr. Anthony Fauci, who is not known for a tendency to understate the risks of COVID-19, has said the Omicron variant may not be all that bad:

 “Though it’s too early to really make any definitive statements about it, thus far it does not look like there’s a great degree of severity to it … Thus far, the signals are a bit encouraging.”

While Fauci also says the new variant’s mutations appear to have made it more capable of infecting people, that may not be a bad thing if it shows itself to be much less destructive. In fact, some studies and observations show it could prove to be what some would call a godsend.

That is because those who get the new strain could gain naturally enhanced immunity to all strains. While the mRNA vaccines only build immunological recognition of the spike protein that has become significantly mutated in Omicron, potentially rendering the vaccines less effective, contracting the Omicron variant may result in immunity that broadly recognizes many other aspects of the COVID virus (SARS-CoV-2) for which the mRNA vaccines do not program the body to be on alert.

Dr Angelique Coetzee, chairwoman of the South African Medical Association, criticized the West’s “extreme” response to her announcement of the new variant’s emergence in South Africa: “I have seen a lot over my medical career, but nothing has prepared me for the extraordinary global reaction that met my announcement … This version of the virus had been circulating in southern Africa for some time … Let me be clear: nothing I have seen about this new variant warrants the extreme action the UK government has taken in response to it. No one here in South Africa is known to have been hospitalized with the Omicron variant, nor is anyone here believed to have fallen seriously ill with it.

Coetzee notes that all Omicron cases she has seen in South Africa have been mild. If South Africa’s experience with Omicron turns out to be typical, then the illness it delivers will be no worse than the flu, but the protection it delivers against more vile forms of COVID may prove to be as good as the immunity any form of COVID provides.

If, as some evidence suggests, Omicron turns out to be a fast-spreading virus with mostly mild symptoms for the majority of the people who catch it, that would be a useful step on the road to herd immunity,” says Coetzee.

Denuncian asesinato de lideresa social en Santa Marta, Colombia

almacubanita's avatarAlma Cubanita

Los desplazamiento forzados, el homicidio y la violencia sexual son otras de las amenazas que hacen que la labor en defensa de los derechos humanos por parte de lideresas de la comunidad LGBTIQ es un ejercicio con un riesgo inherente.

El Instituto de Estudios para el Desarrollo y la Paz (Indepaz) denunció este miércoles el asesinato de otro líder social en Colombia, en esta ocasión el crimen tuvo lugar en la localidad de Santa Marta, al este del país.

Según Indepaz, la víctima, Cristina Isabel Cantillo, quien era una reconocida lideresa y activista social de la comunidad LGBTIQ+ fue asesinada mientras se encontraba en su terraza departiendo, hasta la cual llegó un sicario, quien la atacó con un arma de fuego.

Cantillo, quien también se desempeñaba como directora de Fundación Calidad Humana, había sido amenazada por un grupo armado que actúa en la zona, incluso la Defensoría del Pueblo había emitido en 2021 un documento de seguimiento de la Alerta Temprana 044/19, en el cual señala que las amenazas son el hecho victimizante con mayor ocurrencia contra las lideresas.

La propia Alerta Temprana denunciaba que los desplazamiento forzados, el homicidio…
