James Wright | thecanary.co | 2019-07-22

I think that it's difficult to make an assessment of him when there has been such a sustained campaign against him. So there's a lot of anti-Corbyn propaganda, and… most of the media…

Arkansas Wants to Make Sure You Know 'Almonds Don't Lactate'
aclu.org | 2019-07-22
An Arkansas law censoring plant-based products isn't just absurd and unnecessary, it's unconstitutional. | The state of Arkansas thinks you're confused about whether a veggie burger comes from a cow. In fact, it thinks you're so confused that it passed a law making it illegal for companies to use words like "meat," "roast," and "sausage" to describe products that are not made from animals. Under the law, it doesn't matter if those words are modified by "vegan…

Media just can't stop presenting horrifying stories as 'uplifting' perseverance porn
Alan MacLeod | nationofchange.org | 2019-07-22

The World is Dedollarizing
Peter Koenig | dissidentvoice.org | 2019-07-19
What if tomorrow nobody but the United States would use the US-dollar? Every country, or society would use their own currency for internal and international trade, their own economy-based, non-fiat currency. It could be traditional currencies or new government controlled crypto-currencies, but a country's own sovereign money. No longer the US-dollar. No longer the dollar's …

Andre Vltchek | dissidentvoice.org | 2019-07-18
It used to be comical, but suddenly it is not, anymore. In the past, blind hatred towards China could had been attributed to ignorance, or at least to indoctrination by the Western propaganda and mass media outlets. But now? China's tremendous leap forward, its excellent, humane social policies and determined people-oriented scientific research, as well …

Broken Hill: 'Give us our river back'
pip.hinman | greenleft.org.au | 2019-07-18
The Murray-Darling river system is the lifeblood of Australian agriculture, but it is now in serious crisis. | The river system is experiencing one of the worst droughts on record, and with mass fish deaths in the headlines and farmers struggling to survive, the water crisis is deepening. | But the current crisis has long-term roots in a river system that for years has been controlled by big business and corrupt governments. | In early July, we travelled to the far-western NSW towns of Broken Hill and Menindee and spoke to a number of Aboriginal and non-Indigenous locals who are at the forefront of the fight to s…
