  5. In the digital age, mutual aid has taken on new forms. On the one hand, crowdfunding platforms like GoFundMe or Chuffed are capitalist infrastructures that reproduce many of the same problems as donor-driven aid: they demand performances of suffering, extract fees, and expose the dispossessed to surveillance. On the other hand, they have also become indispensable tools.

    At the same time, Palestinians livestreaming their destruction, Sudanese volunteers sharing appeals, and Congolese organisers posting campaign links all bend these tools toward survival. As a result, digital infrastructures become unlikely spaces where dispossessed communities fight to stay alive.

    Nevertheless, digital solidarity is imperfect, but it is real. Consequently, campaigns amplified on platforms like Threads extend reach beyond the limits of geography. They allow dispossessed communities to build transnational networks of care, even as states and empires attempt to block resources at borders.

    The lesson is not that digital tools solve dispossession. They do not. Instead, they reveal the creativity of communities that refuse to wait for institutions that have already abandoned them.

  28. As a ceasefire is implemented in the Holy Land, the Palestinians still need the help and support of the world: thenation.com/article/world/ga

    Please give if you can.

    As an aside, it seems like there is some kind of typo about a number of 38 million persons; I believe this should be 3.8 million.
