Gen Z’s Guide To Project 2025
https://votersoftomorrow.org/gen-zs-guide-to-project-2025/

This website examines Project 2025 through the eyes of Gen Z. It's packed with grim but very insightful takes.
Project 2025 shows that Republicans want to tear down the future. Gen Z is fighting against that shit.

Joe Biden has dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Kamala Harris.
I'm looking forward to the USA being led by President Kamala Harris in a few months and MAGA-chuds having a cry about it.

tl;dr: French people voted 'yes' to a combination of Socialists, Greens, and left-wing Democracy, and 'no' to right-wing extremism and outright Fascism.

The mainstream media is tying themselves in knots as they try to spin the election results in France. They're using words like 'shock, 'chaos', 'turmoil', and 'unknown' to spread fear. They're saying no one party got an absolute majority. But, what they're not acknowledging is that coalitions are normal in democracies around the world that aren't derived from a Westminster two-party system. Rather than this being a win for Fascism as is appears many in the media were hoping, the Left has risen and saved Democracy in France, and chipped-away some of Emmanuel Macron's power as a consequence of him being a wishy-washy centrist.

After first-round voting, the people of France recognised the possibility of an unsavoury RWNJ outcome, so they turned-out to vote in the run-off elections.

On the left, the New Popular Front includes Jean-Luc Mélenchon, Socialist Party, and the Greens.

Emmanuel Macron and Gabriel Attal's Renaissance is in the centre, and includes the liberal Democratic Movement.

The third major group is the centre-right Republican Party. In the past, they had their time with people like Nicolas Sarkozy and Jacques Chirac.

Next is the National Rally, led by Marine Le Pen, and taking votes from the centre-right to promote Fascism.

Prime Minister of Poland, Donald Tusk, summarised the reaction around Europe: 'In Paris enthusiasm, in Moscow disappointment, in Kyiv relief. Enough to be happy in Warsaw.'

@Tooden Right, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) likes to say "Leave politics out of it" but this year they have chosen to side with a genocidal regime.
When they banned Russia after it invaded Ukraine, I applauded their decision. But when Israel invaded Palestine, they're fine with that. It's a mockery of their own principles.

I'm a huge fan of the Eurovision Song Contest, but this year I'm boycotting Eurovision.

Eurovision has always been political. Its purpose is political by seeking to unite Europe with the power of love of music over the power of hate and war.

In previous years, I celebrated the overt shows of support for Ukraine, LGBTQIA people, and other oppressed people.

But this year, the organisers of the Eurovision Song Contest have chosen ignore calls for BDS and allowed Israel to enter, and they have chosen to ban other participants from showing even support of the people of Palestine.

If you think the Eurovision Song Contest has chosen an appalling stance on this issue, you're not alone. The Israel singer was booed off stage, and there have been a record number of protests against Eurovision inside the auditorium, outside this year's venue in Malmö, and in many participating countries around the world.
