Like other white supremacists, Payton Gendron reportedly believed in the Great Replacement conspiracy theory, a dangerous lie with deadly consequences Needless to say, there is NO white genocide and white people are NOT being persecuted. #Buffalo chronikler.com/europe/usa/whi…

"COP27 will be an inclusive COP where all actors will be... afforded the needed platform to voice their views," claims Egypt's foreign minister, Sameh Shoukry. Does "all actors" include jailed Egyptian activists and how will they "voice their views" from behind bars?

After his killing spree, Payton Gendron was going to shoot himself in the neck but police talked him down, before arresting him. This is how policing should be. If only unarmed black Americans were treated with the same respect for human life. #BuffaloNY #BlackLivesMatter

The reprehensible terrorist attack in Buffalo, New York, illustrates how Donald Trump may be gone but toxic white supremacy continues to poison America because Trump was a symptom of a deeper socio-economic and political malaise, not its cause. #BlackLivesMatter #WhiteSupremacy

@amgechter That's the problem: many kids cannot afford to bring their own food to school, so miss lunch, or they get cheap junk like crisps because their parents can't afford to give them healthy food.

Shireen Abu Aqleh was unable to reach her final resting place in peace, and Palestinians were unable to mourn unharassed. In a just world, a shocking scene like this should be the final nail in the coffin of the Israeli occupation. #Shireen_Abu_Akleh pic.twitter.com/qmUIIT5i1Z

As prices and poverty rise, as many as one in four children in Belgian schools go without lunch, experts estimate (no official statistics exist). That children should go hungry in one of the world's wealthiest countries is unacceptable and shameful. We need free school lunches

If the sight of a Palestinian flag causes Israeli forces to attack the funeral procession of a slain journalist, leading Shireen Abu Aqleh's coffin to fall to the ground, then the prospects for peace are dimmer than ever. Disgusting disrespect. #ShireenAbuAkleh #شيرين_أبوعاقلة

@DiabolicalIdea See, the problem is with *recreational* energy drink use. :>) For actual endurance athletes, they're a big help. But since I'm long-retired from triathlon, yeah, just gimme coffee.
