Faschismus und Patriarchat gehen Hand in Hand, Feminismus und Antifaschismus auch!!!

In einem globalen Kontext, in dem uns ein Virus als Krieg verkauft wird, nutzen auch die faschistischen Apparate die Gelegenheit, ihre repressive Offensive weiter brutal umzusetzen. So ist es kein Zufall, dass das faschistische türkische Militär die drei Aktivistinnen Şehîd Zehra, Şehîd Hebûn und Şehîd Mutter Emîne ermordete. Das waren gezielte patriarchale Morde!!!

Am 14. Juli wurden Dutzende Frauen in Amed verhaftet, darunter Ayşe Gökkan als Sprecherin der TJA (Tevgera Jinên Azad / Bewegung Freier Frauen), die Journalistin Ayşe Güney, die siebzigjährige Friedensmutter Hayriye Demir und Elif Haran, die Ko-Vorsitzende der Gefangenenhilfsorganisation MED TUHAD-FED. Die Repression gegen die kurdische Frauenbewegung in der Türkei hat sich seit der Kriminalisierung des Frauenvereins Rosa im Mai verschärft und ist Teil des Vernichtungsfeldzugs gegen die kurdische Zivilgesellschaft.

Die feministischen Kämpfe und in diesem Fall der Kampf der kurdischen Frauen gegen die patriarchalen Herrscher macht Angst und wird mit sexistischer Repression beantwortet!!

Wegen der Pandemie, im Krieg, in politische Konflikten werden unsere Frauen*Körper zu einem patriarchalen Kampffeld. Das misogyne Herrschaftssystem will uns gehorsam erziehen und für unseren Kampf, unsere Organisierung bestrafen!!! Deshalb verbreiten wir heute mit diesen Zeilen folgende Botschaft an alle Faschisten und Patriarchen!

Wir werden auf alle Angriffe feministisch und internationalistisch antworten!!! Wir werden unsere Wut organisieren!!! Unsere Solidarität kennt keine Grenzen!!! Si tocan a unx respondemos todxs!!!

Wie ein Regenschirm, sind wir ein feministischer Schirm gegen den patriarchalen und faschistischen Regen!! Wir verbinden Kämpfe von und nach Zürich mit Kurdistan, Kolumbien, Oaxaca, Wien, Brasilien, den Philippinen, den USA oder dem Baskenland!!

Wir schweigen nicht, wenn die Militärs in Kolumbien ein indigenes Mädchen vergewaltigen, wir schweigen nicht, wenn die indigenen Frauen von Oaxaca gefoltert, verbrannt und lebendig begraben werden, wir schweigen nicht, wenn LBTIQ-Aktivist*innen auf den Philippinen verhaftet werden, wir schweigen nicht, wenn Bolsonaro und seine Auftragsmörder Feministinnen wie Marielle Franco ermorden, wir sind nicht blind gegenüber strukturellem Rassismus, wir schweigen nicht, wenn die Grauen Wölfe kurdische und türkische und linke Aktivist*innen in Wien angreifen, und wir schweigen nicht angesichts der Feminizide, weder zum 13. Feminizid diesen Jahres in der Schweiz noch zu den Feminiziden in Kobane!!!

In October, a protest against an increase in metro fares by high schoolers in Santiago, Chile, escalated into a nationwide uprising that was sustained until public health concerns due to the coronavirus pandemic hit pause on most street protests.

“Nobody in Chile, and I think its really important to say this, anticipated what happened on October 18th, nobody imagined what was coming,” said Javiera Manzi, from the 8M Feminist Coordinating Committee. 

That night, the government of Sebastián Piñera had declared a state of emergency, which means the military could be used to quash demonstrations. Support for protests swelled as Chileans recalled the military dictatorship that existed until 1990, from which democratic governments had distanced themselves saying: never again (although Pinochet still headed the army until 1998, and some members of ensuing governments supported the dictatorship).

Protesters at many mass actions organized in an effort to allow those attending protests to determine their level of interaction with the police. The first line, faces covered, held shields and stave off the cops, behind them stood folks with lasers, then those ready to help with teargas and behind them, street medics. Large crowds, including, musicians and artists, created a combative and sometimes festive atmosphere.

During a suspended parliament without properly elected supervision, the Australian government is slashing financial protections for its own economically struggling citizens while pouring vast fortunes into supporting dangerous US cold war escalations against Australia’s number one trading partner.

In an article titled “Australian government slashes pandemic payments to workers after suspending parliament“, World Socialist Web Site reports:

Despite a worsening COVID-19 surge in Australia’s two most populous states, the Liberal-National government yesterday announced the slashing of its pandemic wage subsidies and welfare benefits, as part of its drive to “reopen the economy.”

Under conditions of mass unemployment, this will impoverish more than five million unemployed or under-employed workers and welfare recipients. The blatant purpose is to give workers no choice but to go back into unsafe workplaces regardless of the danger of infection.

“JobSeeker and JobKeeper are not do—nothing payments,” Prime Minister Scott Morrison declared, saying they were not designed to prevent people “from going out and seeking work.” Treasury had reported that the payments to workers “potentially blunted their incentives to work, or to take on additional hours of work.”

Got that? It’s too dangerous for our own MPs to go back to work, but everyone else needs to or face economic hardship. These cuts come at a time when 13 out of work Australians can be competing for a single job.

Chinese vaccine against Covid-19 will be a public good of universal access

(How different the attitude of China and Russia, always ready to cooperate with the world, is similar to that of the United States, which is characterized by its selfishness, lowliness and criminality)

Latin Press

Mexico, Jul 23 (Prensa Latina) The Chinese vaccine against Covid-19 will be a public good with universal access, Foreign Minister Wang Yi told her colleagues in Latin America, according to a statement from the Mexican Foreign Ministry.

Last night, Mexico and China co-chaired a virtual meeting of foreign ministers from Latin America and the Caribbean, which aimed to consolidate international cooperation against Covid-19 and jointly face the challenges derived from the pandemic.

The meeting was chaired by Mexico’s Secretary of Foreign Relations, Marcelo Ebrard, and by Minister Wang.

Caitlin Johnstone on the CIA Uighur Narrative

via The Most Revolutionary Act shared with thanks

By Caitlin Johnstone

My social media notifications have been lighting up the last few days with virulent Chinagaters sharing a video which purports to show Uighur Muslims being loaded onto a train to be taken to concentration camps.

It’s actually an old video that had already surfaced last year, but it is magically making the rounds again as a new and shocking revelation in 2020 now that western China hysteria has been officially kicked into high gear, at exactly the same time the US enacts one of the most dangerous and incendiary escalations of recent years in the South China Sea.

Everyone tagging me in this video presents it as a self-evident “gotcha” moment, in exactly the same way Russiagaters spent years tagging me in every HUGE BOMBSHELL WALLS ARE CLOSING IN item of thinly sourced narrative fluff in their debunked conspiracy theory that the Kremlin had infiltrated the highest levels of the US government.

They are one hundred percent certain that the video shows Uighurs being loaded onto a train to go to a concentration camp, solely because that is what the bit of text over the video tells them they are seeing.

They aren’t looking at the actual data and thinking critically about it, they’re looking at the narrative and believing it on blind faith.

Which, in a post-Iraq invasion world, is an absolutely insane thing to do when presented with information about a nation that is targeted by the US-centralized empire.

In reality there’s nothing in the video which tells us that these are Uighur people being sent to a “re-education camp” and not merely a conventional prison transfer of convicted criminals, the likes of which take place in the far more populous US prison system all the time.

 It’s an unknown. We are told by the BBC’s Andrew Marr (the same Andrew Marr whose phony journalism Noam Chomsky derided years ago) that it has been “authenticated by western intelligence agencies and by Australian experts”, which in practice are the same thing, and that’s really the extent of the evidence.

Post-coronavirus, will “My non-binary status is about life and death” seem more clearly like the joke it is?

by Meghan Murphy 2.6kSHARES

In a matter weeks, we’ve all been yanked back to reality. Most of us, anyway. It seems some stragglers remain blissfully ignorant, continuing on with their lives much as they would have pre-global pandemic. Refusing to care about anyone but ourselves remains a popular pastime among humans, as ever.

GQ published a badly timed article last week, just days before reality (and panic) set in for most, profiling Ezra Miller — an actor I’ve never heard of and wish I had still not.

Miller is 27 years old, insists on being referred to as “they” or “them,” and has a personality to match these demands. He is intolerable, in other words. The fawning interviewer, who can’t have been more than 30 years old themselves, or they wouldn’t have fallen for the embarrassing charade of faux-intellectualism, conveyed through the use of as many big words as Miller could memorize, quotes the actor saying things like:

“Straightness and cis-ness and whiteness and racism, as in the belief in race, physical appearance as a determining factor for fucking anything, including ethnicity, ethnography — these are all like the circus, the carnival, the Hollywood instead of all the different storytelling practices… All these things are relatively recent colonial inventions.”
