Malcolm X was not just a man but an ongoing process. A revolutionary for us all—even children—his journey from rage to clarity shows how radical truth is learned, lived, and handed down.
A functioning health system is not one where executives earn bonuses while patients die in corridors.
On Andor, Class Struggle, and Watching Rebellion Under Trumpism
Let’s not pretend this is clever politics. It’s cowardice. The real danger is not that Labour contines to lose votes to Reform. It’s that it becomes Reform, in language, in policy, and in the cruel calculus of who gets to belong.
Warfare looks and sounds like war, but says nothing about it. Iraqis are reduced to bullet magnets, the mission is never named, and behind the realism lies a vacuum: of politics, of purpose, of meaning.
This is how Putin wages war: deliberate strikes on civilian centres, on housing, schools, power stations, hospitals.
As Putin wages a war without end, Britain prepares for conflict in the only way it knows how, by cutting everything except the military.
