Amid critical doctor shortage, apartheid state launches international program to bring 2,000 physicians by 2029


Israel’s physician scarcity is due to a number of factors: the retirement of Russian doctors who immigrated to Israel en masse in the 1990s after the fall of the Soviet Union, a decision by the Israeli medical establishment to stop accepting medical degrees from various institutions in Eastern Europe as well as the limited number of seats in Israeli medical schools, according to Tony Gelbart, co-founder and chairman of Nefesh B’Nefesh.

“Israel never fully adjusted for this, resulting in a bottleneck in residency and internship positions,” said Tony Gelbart, whose organization facilitates Aliyah from North America. “The convergence of these factors is creating an impending crisis.”


I think that the apartheid state’s want of physicians is a little bit more complicated than this.

in reply to Anarcho-Bolshevik

They are scouring MyHeritage for any Zionist doctors carrying DNA connecting them to Joseph Mengele's lineage. Any doctor with a conscience would never emigrate to Israel.
in reply to Bronstein_Tardigrade

See, I know that the author wants everybody to be worried or upset over this news, but my own takeaway from this report is that the apartheid state is inching closer to collapse.


LGA1155 motherboard - no USB ports work


trying to save an old motherboard, it's a Gigabyte GA-B75M-D2V. tried searching, got nothing usable back.

problem: no USB ports work - all the ones on the back, both USB 2.0 and 3.0, and all front ports. USB ports not working is common accross boards and manufacturers, but it's usually a subset, some work some don't and you can still use the thing.

ports have 5V, when the keyboard gets connected its leds light up for a second but don't stay on. the mouse's led doesn't light up when connected. neither are detected by the UEFI setup.

I got a PCI-Express USB 3.0 card, but that thing doesn't work for booting off of it or in UEFI setup, etc., only after boot from HDD.

otherwise, everything works - LAN, sound, audio, SATA, etc. I feel the platform still has a lot of life left, especially for my use cases.

this is not a software or settings issue, that's why I'm in "ask electronics" something is fried here and was looking for pointers what or where to look at.

no visible burns or busted caps and such. hoping it's something simple, any ideas what to look at?

Did this happen over time or suddenly all ports dead? Or maybe this is new to you and unknown.

I would try clearing the CMOS is you haven't already. Unplug power, remove the CMOS battery and wait a minute or more (or short the + and - contacts for a few seconds).

If that doesn't change things, maybe inspect the CPU. Any problems visible on its contacts or the socket?

in reply to tychosmoose

got the board for free, it had those issues with the dude's CPU, it has it with mine too, socket looked OK, no bent pins I can see. isn't a settings or software issue, tried all that.
in reply to glitching

Just to make sure - you physically drained the CMOS to reset it, right? That can have different results vs resetting to defaults in the BIOS/UEFI interface.
in reply to tychosmoose

yes, I know what a CMOS reset is, comes up, says settings are wiped, you want defaults, etc., no change. got a USB to PS2 adapter and I can move around the setup, tried everything and then some.

it hasn't anything to do with settings, something got fried here and was looking for pointers what to look at.

Use linux-hardware.org to search for a relevant kernel scan. I think that should have some kind of potential hardware identification for the USB hub and PCI trees. That may clue you in about the architecture and devices. I'm no expert on motherboards or the evolution of hardware devices. However, it could be as simple as a USB hub chip on the board. I only know that these things exist from around 5 years ago when I was researching how I might make a USB 3 to PCIE adaptor for an Intel Core Duo machine. I was looking into adding a faster external drive port to libreboot hardware.

From what I recall, the CPU has a ton of connections on its various I/O pins, (like you indicated checking for bent pins). However each register port has a ton of compromises to make at the board design level. Like, the hardware spec of the CPU says it has way way more stuff than is actually possible to implement in practice. The base CPU spec may say it has a half dozen USB ports and three 32 bit PCI lanes or whatnot, but when one gets into the weeds of hardware design, one quickly finds stuff like one USB port is hardware available in practice in the same hardware register as something like the Ethernet controller, but if you use it, the Ethernet speed is halved, and the other five hardware USB ports are only available if one disables all the PCI lanes. So instead, the hardware designer uses a GPIO pin against the enable pin of a USB hub to PCI converter chip that sits on the same PCI bus as all other external hardware. This was also very common in older generations of laptops. There was often a small daughter board that had a set of ports for USB, SD cards, Ethernet, etc., and this worked in a similar topology where it was a PCI device.

The first rule of troubleshooting is "thou shall check ground". Beyond this, if you happen to discover that the USB ports are handled by such a controller, if you look up the datasheet and pinout, the Enable pin in the first to check after confirming power is present. Also be sure you have the kernel module or driver necessary to identify this device. Worst case scenario, if you identify there is an external controller, you could simply replace it. There is no programming in such a chip. It is just a simple hot air rework swap job. Alternatively, maybe try an external card or adaptor on one of the other ports or on PCI.



Venezuela moves to open up oil sector to private investors as demanded by Trump


Venezuelan lawmakers on Thursday gave their initial backing to plans to throw open the oil sector to private investors, paving the way for the return of US energy majors – a key demand of President Donald Trump.

Less than three weeks after the US seized President Nicolas Maduro in an armed raid, MPs endorsed on first reading a bill allowing private companies to independently engage in oil exploration and extraction.

If adopted on a second reading, the bill would roll back decades of state controls over Venezuela's oil sector, which were tightened by Maduro's late mentor, socialist firebrand Hugo Chavez, in the mid-2000s.

in reply to PolandIsAStateOfMind

Looks pretty legit to me. Especially combined with the recent articles about the new Venezuelan president being a CIA asset

Grok floods X with sexualized images of women and children


The AI tool Grok is estimated to have generated approximately 3 million sexualized images, including 23,000 that appear to depict children, after the launch of a new image editing feature powered by the tool on X, according to new analysis of a sample of images.

[1]The image-generating feature exploded in popularity on December 29th, shortly after Elon Musk announced a feature enabling X users to use Grok to edit images posted to the platform with one click.[2] The feature was restricted to paid users on January 9th in response to widespread condemnation of its use for generating sexualized images, with further technical restrictions on editing people to undress them added on January 14th.[3]



Jones Manoel e a esperança da Revolução Brasileira


Em entrevista ao Le Monde Diplomatique Brasil, o político e historiador analisa a conjuntura brasileira na atualidade


::: spoiler Conteúdo
Jones Manoel é historiador, político, professor, comunicador e militante, oriundo da favela de Borborema, em Recife. Ele encontrou nos estudos o que seria a sua profissão. E, posteriormente, construiu uma carreira em prol de uma nova frente de luta brasileira. Autodeclarado marxista, leninista e comunista, Jones se tornou uma das principais vozes da esquerda radical brasileira ao se filiar ao Partido Comunista Brasileiro Revolucionário (PCBR), um partido sem registro formal.

Na época de estudante na Universidade de Pernambuco (UFPE) e professor em um cursinho popular, ele ajudou mais de 30 jovens a entrar em faculdades de Recife. “Eu tinha um senso progressista de mudar o mundo a partir da educação; porém, no decorrer do processo dos estudos, eu fui vendo que essa percepção era limitada”, confessa.

Ele ainda complementa que: “na transição dos 20 para os 21 anos, para mim ficou muito claro que era fundamental ter uma militância política visando a disputa do poder político. A partir daí, eu decidi atuar em um movimento estudantil e começar a minha vida de militante”.

Com 36 anos, Jones enfrenta neste ano as eleições para a Câmara dos Deputados, afiliado ao PCBR, em parceria democrática com o Partido Socialismo e Liberdade (PSOL). Em camiseta vermelha, ele conversa com o Le Monde Diplomatique Brasil sobre a sua filiação com o partido socialista em 2026 e analisa a profundidade do cenário político brasileiro diante da incerteza.

A seguir, confira a entrevista na íntegra.

  • Em 2025, foi anunciado que o PSOL tem interesse em lançá-lo como deputado federal. Como isso pode impactar na sua eleição, agora com um partido político?

O PCBR é um partido, inclusive já está em mais de 22 estados, mas ele não tem registro eleitoral ainda. Desde 2016, a legislação eleitoral brasileira vem passando por uma série sucessiva de modificações e tem ficado mais difícil legalizar uma nova organização política.

Por não haver possibilidades de fazer uma frente da esquerda radical em uma candidatura presidencial, o PCBR decidiu fazer uma filiação democrática ao PSOL e me lançar candidato a deputado federal em Pernambuco, por uma tática eleitoral, a partir do pressuposto de que seria muito importante, para o movimento comunista brasileiro e para toda a classe trabalhadora, ter um deputado comunista.

Partindo da premissa que o Partido Comunista Brasileiro (PCB) não pratica a sua política comunista, a gente pode dizer com tranquilidade que a gente não tem um deputado comunista no Congresso Nacional há mais de 30 anos [último deputado eleito do PCB foi Roberto Freire em 1986]. Isso mostraria outras possibilidades de um fazer político revolucionário usando o espaço institucional para organizar a classe, para aumentar o nível de consciência, para fazer denúncias, mobilização e pautar de maneira permanente, também nos espaços institucionais, um projeto de revolução brasileira.

A gente está em negociação interna com o PSOL, há várias de suas correntes que já manifestaram entusiasmo e concordância com esta filiação democrática, porque inclusive ela ajuda o PSOL a crescer do ponto de vista da sua bancada parlamentar. Vale lembrar também que o PSOL nunca elegeu um deputado federal pelo Nordeste, então há a possibilidade de ser a primeira vitória eleitoral para o Congresso Nacional, o que também é muito significativo.

Mas a eleição para deputado federal é uma muito concorrida; aqui em Pernambuco, por exemplo, o quociente eleitoral é 200 mil votos. A gente tem expectativas muito positivas de um resultado eleitoral que vai fazer história no debate político e eleitoral brasileiro. Voltaremos a ter um comunista no Congresso Nacional.

  • Você diz em podcasts e entrevistas que considera concorrer à presidência no futuro, quais seriam as suas principais propostas?

Essa era a minha vontade pessoal. Não era meu objetivo concorrer a deputado em 2026, eu fui convencido pelos debates internos do PCBR. Historicamente no Brasil, o povo tem uma perspectiva muito presidencialista, sabe-se o nome do presidente, mas o nome do deputado ou senador não é lá muito relevante. O debate político eleitoral é centralizado na figura do presidente e a campanha presidencial tem um papel muito importante na pedagogia política. A gente tem certeza que uma campanha de esquerda radical, tocando os principais temas vividos pela classe trabalhadora, apontando a dimensão da crise capitalista que a gente vive no Brasil e no mundo e da falência da democracia burguesa, ou seja, uma proposta antissistêmica de esquerda, teria muita, mas muita adesão.

A gente já vê isso, inclusive, em outros países, vale destacar os resultados da eleição legislativa da França, e, na boca do monstro, o novo prefeito de Nova York, Zohran Mamdani, com um discurso abertamente socialista, criticando os bilionários, defendendo o povo palestino e os serviços públicos universais. Então, a minha equipe faria um debate centrado num conjunto de reformas populares, radicais e estruturais que apontassem na direção da revolução brasileira.

Não que a gente ache que dá pra fazer revolução, mas dá para aumentar o nível de consciência crítica, agitar, politizar e arrancar conquistas imediatas para o povo. Evidentemente, no âmbito desta entrevista, não dá pra resumir todos os pontos do debate, mas cito três que acho muito importantes: as relações de trabalho atualmente, o controle nacional das riquezas naturais e a qualidade dos serviços públicos.

Todo trabalhador sente que trabalha cada vez mais, em empregos piores e ganha cada vez menos. Então, há um elemento da qualidade, de como os salários não crescem, e sem perspectiva de progredir, já a aposentadoria e a velhice são cada vez mais incertas. Isso tem um elemento de mobilização ampla na classe trabalhadora.

Do mesmo jeito que há amplas repercussões na classe trabalhadora, é importante debater sobre o controle nacional e popular das riquezas naturais do Brasil. O Brasil é um país autossuficiente em petróleo, mas a gasolina continua sendo uma fortuna. Assim como esse país é o detentor da segunda maior reserva de terras raras do mundo, que é palco de uma disputa global entre Estados Unidos e China, a gente não tem nenhum projeto nacional de gestão e uso das terras raras. Em um país tão rico em petróleo, e minérios críticos, com a disponibilidade absurda de terra, de sol, de água, por que a gente paga tão caro no combustível? Por que a gente não consegue industrializar nossos recursos naturais estratégicos?

O preço dos alimentos é um absurdo e a gente tem uma degradação da alimentação do brasileiro a partir da explosão do consumo de ultraprocessados. Não se tem um debate sobre a reforma agrária no Brasil, sobre um planejamento do uso do solo, ou um zoneamento econômico territorial do uso do solo no Brasil.

O sistema de saúde, o SUS, por sua vez, tem que ser valorizado e defendido, mas tem as suas precariedades. A classe trabalhadora hoje vai para o plano de saúde porque o SUS não atende às suas expectativas, mas uma melhora e uma ampliação quantitativa e qualitativa do serviço oferecido pelo SUS ia ter um impacto imediato inclusive no consumo, na geração do emprego. Já a educação brasileira vive um verdadeiro colapso. Há uma demanda da classe trabalhadora por melhora substantiva dos serviços públicos.

Infelizmente, as organizações de esquerda radical mostram pouca disponibilidade para construir uma unidade para uma campanha presidencial e, de acordo com a análise que o PCBR fez, não terá um candidato de esquerda radical nas eleições de 2026. O que é uma pena, porque do lado da direita você vê ‘50 tons de direita e extrema direita’, são 7 ou 8 candidatos colocados. Do lado da esquerda, você só tem o Lula. Isso é ruim para o próprio debate público, porque a sociedade brasileira vai se acostumando com a ideia de que parece que a direita que está certa, porque tem mais opções e é mais apoiada. Por mais que no voto isso não signifique a vitória deles, acho que é uma vitória ideológica, porque vai se normalizando o absurdo. A existência de figuras como Zema, Caiado, Aldo Rebelo, vai ajudar a naturalizar aquele candidato da extrema direita ou da direita como alguém até racional ou moderado, se comparado com os outros candidatos.

  • Em 2026, o Lula vai candidatar-se apenas com outros candidatos de direita, como você acha que isso vai impactar a democracia?

Eu acho que vai ser muito ruim para o Brasil, porque o debate vai ser favorecido pela direita. Eu acho que vai ser um debate centrado nessa ideologia neoliberal de responsabilidade fiscal, de corte de gastos, de Venezuela e de Cuba e de corrupção. Nenhum dos temas fundamentais do país vão ser tocados.

A tônica ideológica do debate [em 2026] vai ser dada pela direita. Muita gente no Brasil acredita que o resultado eleitoral define a correlação de forças políticas. Quando na verdade não. A tendência da consciência da massa trabalhadora é ir para onde estão indo os debates políticos.

A compreensão dos problemas da realidade e suas soluções é muito importante para definir os rumos políticos do país. Mas o Lula e o PT são incapazes de pautar um programa político à esquerda. Por quê? A meu ver, o partido elabora um governo neoliberal, mas que procura ter algumas políticas públicas que atendam às necessidades pequenas e imediatas da classe trabalhadora.

Veja a política de defesa nacional do governo. O Brasil tem uma doutrina militar e Forças Armadas que estão subordinadas aos Estados Unidos. Ele importa 90% do seu equipamento de defesa de países membros da Otan. A estrutura de organização das forças armadas no Brasil é pensada para combater o inimigo interno — leia-se, trabalhadores e trabalhadoras —, não para fazer a defesa nacional. Em 2026, o Lula vai fazer discursos formais sobre soberania, mas em seu quinto mandato, não existe mais dúvidas que dali não sai nenhum projeto soberano, nacional e popular para pensar desenvolvimento de ciência e tecnologia, pensar reindustrialização no Brasil e uma política séria para o complexo econômico e industrial da saúde; para fazer uma verdadeira revolução educacional e cultural no Brasil.

  • Por que o Brasil não vê um projeto a longo prazo?

Eu acho que o maior problema que está colocado é que a burguesia brasileira não tem um projeto de país soberano e autônomo. A classe dominante brasileira já está muito bem ambientada a uma dependência, a uma subordinação na divisão internacional do trabalho, uma subordinação política, econômica, militar, institucional, tecnológica aos Estados Unidos. Um projeto soberano do país só vem da classe trabalhadora. A maioria das organizações políticas de esquerda que lideram e hegemonizaram a classe trabalhadora é que, leia-se principalmente o PT, não tem projeto de país. E eu acho que a gente não tem direito à inocência, é o quinto governo petista. O presidente Lula é líder da esquerda brasileira há quarenta anos.

  • Como os debates online auxiliaram a expansão de suas ideias de esquerda?

Os debates na internet se enquadram muito dentro da definição clássica da tradição comunista, da diferenciação entre ‘agitação’ e ‘propaganda’. A gente poderia dizer que ‘propaganda’ é a produção e difusão de muitas ideias para poucas pessoas. Seria aquela elaboração com mais densidade teórica que acaba que nem toda a classe trabalhadora vai ter acesso, vai conseguir consumir de imediato. Já a ‘agitação’ seria, nas palavras do Lênin, poucas palavras para muitas pessoas. Seria aquele elemento mais agitativo, a palavra de ordem, o slogan, a mensagem rápida e simples de ser compreendida pelo maior número possível de pessoas. Historicamente, no meu canal, eu venho fazendo propaganda, debates teóricos mais densos com autores e autoras de livros, conceitos e categorias. Isso teve um impacto positivo, continua tendo. Há anos, mas eu sinto a necessidade de reforçar o elemento de ‘agitação’ a partir da comunicação digital.

O Brasil, infelizmente, consome muito o que é tendência cultural nos Estados Unidos. E eu me dei conta dessa tendência dos debates online nos Estados Unidos, de ‘esquerda versus direita’. Quando eu decidi entrar nesses debates que chegaram ao Brasil, foi a partir de uma aposta comunicacional e política que isso teria grande repercussão e sucesso. Essa repercussão ajudou a tornar o trabalho mais conhecido, em sentido amplo, os livros, textos, vídeos no canal, palestras, e acabou dando muito certo. Quando você usa ferramentas de busca de redes, você vai ver que 2025 foi o ano em que eu fui mais citado, comentado e buscado nas redes sociais de toda a história da minha militância.

  • Queria saber se você gostaria de se pronunciar acerca da exclusão de suas contas no Instagram e Facebook?

Eu acho que está muito claro, e o governo Trump nesse sentido ajudou nisso, a compreender o caráter político das big techs. As big techs são grandes monopólios capitalistas, sediados nos Estados Unidos, ligados de maneira orgânica ao interesse estratégico do imperialismo estadunidense. Elas têm lado. Inclusive, existem várias pesquisas comprovando que há uma predisposição da governança algorítmica a circular mais conteúdos de direita e de extrema direita que conteúdos de esquerda. O caso do genocídio contra o povo palestino deixou muito claro como várias contas que circulavam informações críticas a Israel e positivas em defesa do povo palestino tiveram alcance reduzido ou banido. Esse episódio para a gente foi muito didático, para mostrar o lado político, para quem tem dúvida, das big techs.

A minha equipe iniciou um processo judicial que está correndo até hoje, porque a gente não tem uma explicação formal da Meta sobre o que aconteceu. Estamos com um processo judicial, não só cobrando a explicação formal, como uma indenização.

  • Por fim, quais obras de esquerda você recomendaria para os leitores do Diplô se prepararem para as eleições em 2026?

No meu canal, no Farol Brasil, eu lancei uma lista de dez livros que você precisa ler para 2026. Dessa lista, eu vou citar só dois livros aqui, que eu acho importantes para a gente pensar temas que vão ser importantes na conjuntura brasileira. Acho que o primeiro livro é o livro da Clara Mattei, A ordem do Capital: como os economistas inventaram a austeridade e fortaleceram o fascismo, publicado pela Boitempo.

É um livro que destrincha o que é a essência do programa neoliberal de austeridade que é praticado pelo governo Lula, também defendido por Tarcísio, por Zema, por Caiado, por Ratinho Júnior. Nesse sentido, eles têm uma concordância fundamental no marco da macroeconomia. Esse livro é muito bom.

O segundo livro é o livro do Clóvis Moura, A dialética radical do Brasil negro, que é um livro que pensa a formação social brasileira em longa duração histórica e debate a questão racial na formação do capitalismo dependente brasileiro. O livro reflete sobre por que o Brasil padece historicamente e segue com altíssimos níveis de desigualdade.

Eu acho que a maioria do que se chama de esquerda brasileira perdeu a capacidade de fazer formação política, fazer formação teórica, de difundir de maneira didática, sem perder a profundidade, conceitos, categorias que são muito importantes. A gente precisa dar cada vez mais atenção à teoria, à formulação, ao estudo, a pensar o Brasil no longo prazo. Eu fico muito, mas muito assustado quando percebo que muita gente quer resumir a realidade brasileira a um mero debate eleitoral do momento.

Existem problemas muito mais profundos do que essa epiderme de debate “bolsonaristas versus petistas”. Em última instância, isso não cria esperança de futuro para o Brasil. Isso não delineia um projeto de país que, para a gente, é a Revolução Brasileira. É a conquista do poder pelos trabalhadores. Mas isso não resolve os problemas fundamentais do Brasil.

O que eu recomendaria? Eu recomendo para as pessoas estudarem, para as pessoas lerem. A gente precisa da densidade teórica. A direita é mais simples, é mais direta. Trabalhar com meme, com fake news. Para quem quer manter a ordem dominante, quem quer manter o status quo, você não precisa de reflexão, porque está dado. É só reproduzir. Para quem quer transformar radicalmente a realidade, acho que precisa necessariamente navegar em águas mais profundas e avançar no entendimento crítico das pessoas.

Michigan AG Nessel sues big oil over ‘cartel’-like plot to kill clean energy





Exclusive: UK confirms phone call between Cameron and ICC’s Karim Khan


The UK government has confirmed for the first time that a phone call took place between David Cameron and Karim Khan in which the then foreign secretary is alleged to have threatened the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court over his investigation into Israeli war crimes in Gaza.

However, it has now been forced in response to a Freedom of Information request to confirm that a phone conversation between the men took place.

The phone call took place just one month before Khan sought arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and then Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, and coincided with an intensifying pressure campaign targeting Khan over his investigation into the war in Gaza.

No work, no shopping, no dining out. Hundreds of businesses across Minnesota are expected to close and many people are vowing to pause everyday activities on Friday as part of a general strike against the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown.

As tensions mount and a sense of fear of detention by immigration agents permeates the state, vendors, labor unions and residents are set to participate in an economic blackout and gather at prayers and protests on what organizers called a “Day of Truth and Freedom.”

“It’s tense and emotional, and folks are hurting,” said Bishop Dwayne Royster, the executive director of Faith in Action, which is helping with the organizing effort. Minnesotans, he said, are demonstrating “deep resilience and willingness to stand together in ways I haven’t seen folks do in a very long time.”

The Minneapolis Mass Strike Shows the Way – Let’s Go Further


cross-posted from: news.abolish.capital/post/2219…

Resistance to state terror, particularly ICE terror, is growing deeper and wider across the country. On January 23rd Minneapolis will be at the forefront of this fightback, launching the first city-wide mass strike in response to an ICE occupation of the city.

Black Rose/Rosa Negra’s (BRRN) External Education Committee (EEC) offers this editorial statement on what appears to be the opening of a new phase in the struggle against ICE.

by BRRN External Education Committee

On January 23rd, Minnesotans will make history with a mass strike demanding ICE out of their city. Teachers, healthcare staff, transit drivers, communication technicians, and other workers will stay off the job; faith leaders will rally congregants into the streets; and rapid response networks will redouble their efforts to thwart ICE from terrorizing Latino and Somali neighbors. Shutting down the city demonstrates the need for large-scale, disruptive direct action to beat back the violent advance of authoritarianism in our workplaces, schools, and neighborhoods.

In Minneapolis and around the country, the George Floyd Rebellion looms large in memory. The burning of the Third Precinct exposed how vulnerable the state’s repressive infrastructure is when confronted by overwhelming numbers. Strategically, however, the Rebellion showed the limits of large scale mobilization, even as it took on an insurrectionary character at times. Mass organizations such as tenant unions and popular assemblies in neighborhoods; student unions in schools; and militant labor unions in workplaces act to embed, sustain, and sharpen diffuse popular fury into popular power.

Without independent mass organizations that allow us to develop our own strategy to determine where social movements go next, even the most antagonistic street movements have shown themselves susceptible to pacification by NGOs, union bureaucracies, and the Democratic Party.

Millions of people disgusted with the Trump administration’s fascist maneuvers have learned vital lessons about sustaining struggle. As we highlighted in our recent conjunctural analysis, spectacular, symbolic demonstrations that released social discontent have been displaced by everyday people developing and expanding infrastructure for defense. Angelinos rapidly spread pioneering responses to National Guard and ICE deployments in Southern California during summer 2025. Chicagoans, Memphians, and now Minnesotans have adapted those tactics, techniques, and strategies to protect their neighbors against ICE surges in their cities.

Rather than standing as fodder for symbolic arrest in front of police lines, people have learned how to throw sand into the gears of state machinery. Direct action blocks ICE from kidnapping their friends and family, and it exemplifies to others how they can shape history. These actions, and others like them, have increasingly gained at least tepid support from local and state officials. Nods to backing mass civil disobedience have only come after everyday people have acted and won. The political class cannot and will not lead us; its members fearfully trail movements they anticipate “getting out of hand.”

By not just declaring, but actually building toward a general strike, workers, neighbors, and students in Minneapolis demonstrate popular power in action. This approach doesn’t rely on political brokers to act on their behalf, nor does it resort to anonymous flyers or social media posts expecting spontaneous social explosions.

A general strike takes sincere, courageous, and widespread solidarity. It takes mass and political organizations – many with which we may share sharp disagreements – working in tandem to turn out their membership and allies to buy nothing, suspend work, and disrupt business as usual. It takes dominated peoples collaborating, stumbling, and striving together.

Nothing should take away from this momentous political occasion. But we would be remiss if we didn’t forewarn that one day of widespread disruption will not throw the brakes on accelerating authoritarianism. Instead, we must sustain widespread disruption and take total control of our cities: our workplaces, neighborhoods, schools, and social institutions, of, by, and for ourselves. How might that look, and what are the steps to expand Minnesotans’ burgeoning power?

Drawing on experiences from the last two decades, including recent work to fight back ICE, we offer the following suggestions and insights we think can carry the budding popular power brewing in Minneapolis one step closer to the social revolution that will rid us of this rot.

  1. Consolidate organizations for the long term: Like elsewhere, Minneapolis has grown neighborhood-based communications and networks to warn one another about ICE’s presence. Sustaining their efforts will require durable, rooted structures, like neighborhood councils, defense committees, and popular assemblies, that can take up other fights.

    Read more about how to build a popular assemblymanual and steps for kicking ICE out of your workplace.

  2. Raise interim demands: Workplace policies that keep out ICE can become longer-term horizons to kick out all police forces. Demanding hotels in our neighborhoods refuse contracts with ICE impedes their ability to operate. Setting clear goals focuses energies to fight like hell and keep on the pressure.

    The example of healthcare workers in Californiademonstrate how to raise, build towards, and win intermediate gains.

  3. Build a culture of mass resistance: Slogans, propaganda, study groups, and more must reiterate it is us – not bosses, politicians, administrators, or any other member of the dominating class – who can save or take care of us.

    Print flyers and pamphlets to share with your friends and in your workplaces, neighborhoods, and schools.

  4. Grow principled networks of antifascist, anticapitalist, and anti-state resistance: All who stand shoulder-to-shoulder on 1/23 reject the state paramilitaries terrorizing and attacking their communities. The Trump administration’s policies are not an aberration but an outgrowth of the US empire in decay. To stop these forces once and for all, we will need to tear out its roots: capitalist exploitation and state oppression.

    Learn how organizing across political divides in the California Bay Area kept out ICE.

Workers, neighbors, and students in Minnesota are navigating uncharted waters in our modern political landscape. Their resolve shows that everyday people can stand down the federal government. As ICE terror surges, we will do all that we can to make one, two, a thousand coordinated stands in Minneapolis and wherever the state reaches its hands, and we can beat it back, once and for all.

Batman for better 🤣 - "Eventi inaspettati e comportamento prosociale: l'effetto Batman". L'articolo di Francesco Pagnini, Francesca Grosso e Mauro Bertolotti su #Nature


>

Il comportamento prosociale, ovvero l'atto di aiutare gli altri, è essenziale per la vita sociale, tuttavia i fattori ambientali spontanei che innescano tale comportamento rimangono poco esplorati. Questo studio ha testato se un evento inaspettato, come la presenza di una persona vestita da Batman, potesse aumentare il comportamento prosociale interrompendo la routine e aumentando l'attenzione al momento presente. Abbiamo condotto uno studio sul campo quasi sperimentale sulla metropolitana di Milano, osservando 138 passeggeri. Nella condizione di controllo, una sperimentatrice, apparentemente incinta, è salita sul treno con un'osservatrice. Nella condizione sperimentale, un'ulteriore sperimentatrice vestita da Batman è entrata da un'altra porta. I passeggeri erano significativamente più propensi a offrire il proprio posto in presenza di Batman (67,21% contro 37,66%, OR = 3,393, p \< 0,001). In particolare, il 44% di coloro che hanno offerto il proprio posto nella condizione sperimentale ha riferito di non aver visto Batman. Questi risultati suggeriscono che gli eventi inaspettati possono promuovere la prosocialità, anche in assenza di consapevolezza, con implicazioni per l'incoraggiamento della gentilezza in contesti pubblici.

‘Enough Is Enough’: Hundreds of Minnesota Businesses Take Stand Against ICE


After protesters called for a pause on economic activity and work to strike against the federal immigration crackdown, many business owners won’t open their doors on Friday.


Its a general strike. The first in the US in living memory

A list of businesses is here

House Democrats' support for impeaching Kristi Noem is exploding


cross-posted from: lemmy.world/post/41921279

Support among House Democrats for impeaching Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is skyrocketing, nearly doubling in the last week to 100 co-sponsors.

That's an unprecedented level of support for an impeachment effort during President Trump's second term, with lawmakers who have bristled at the topic in the past now warming to the idea.

Kelly is urging Republicans to get on board with her efforts — even as no GOP lawmaker has come close to expressing support for Noem's impeachment.

"As Secretary Noem continues to lie, obstruct Congress, and violate people's civil rights, the support for her impeachment only grows," she said.

New York nurses continue to strike in frigid weather as Mamdani shows support


cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/42097705

Fri 23 Jan 2026 07.00 EST
Almost 15,000 nurses who work for three separate hospital systems have been on strike since 12 January, holding out for increased staffing, better safety in hospitals, and improved healthcare benefits. The New York State Nurses Association (NYSNA) has pointed to the giant pay packages that hospital CEOs have received, at a time when nurses say there are too few of them to adequately care for patients.

The strike has pulled support from Zohran Mamdani, the New York City mayor, and Bernie Sanders, the democratic socialist Vermont senator, both of whom joined striking nurses outside a Mount Sinai hospital on Tuesday.

Great news! Anyone using Guix as their daily driver? How is your experience?
in reply to finalaccountforreal

I do; 'been my daily driver for 2 years (maybe 3?), now.

My experience has, generally, been great. You get the same minimal instability you'd get from any rolling distro but the stability you get from it being declarative and reproducible is fantastic; I, also, like being able to use my favorite programming language for my config. (and pretty much everywhere).

in reply to finalaccountforreal

Been daily-driving Guix on 3 different machines for about 3 years. Love the declarative configs and rollbacks, and being able to easy share configuration with Scheme snippets between machines. I know that once I get something working on one, I have it permanently working for all my machines.
in reply to surpador

I know that once I get something working on one, I have it permanently working for all my machines.


That sounds awesome

in reply to finalaccountforreal

The tradeoff is that there's a Guixy way to do things that might not be obvious from the upstream docs, so could be harder to get e.g. a service up and running initially, but for me the reproducibility makes it a good tradeoff.





NixOS + Niri: Steam fails to launch after copying text anywhere (Wayland clipboard lock)


OS: NixOS config
Compositor: Niri 25.11 (Nixpkgs)

Problem:
Steam opens normally when no recent clipboard activity. After copying text from any app (Firefox, terminal, etc.), Steam hangs silently and won't launch until:
1. I run wl-copy --clear, or
2. Close the app that owns the clipboard

Logs:
This is the logs of launching steam after i have copied some text from any app.
