„[T]he traditional assumption that regional conflicts are temporary shocks awaiting a diplomatic fix has completely collapsed.

For global political and economic elites, perpetual instability is no longer a failure to be corrected but a baseline structural condition around which modern global capitalism is choosing to organize itself.“

Suffocating in smoke pollution
from the 'agricultural activity' of
post-harvest pile burning by the cellulose 'plantations'
of the NSW government's Forestry Corporation.

"You can kill a person with post-harvest burning just as well as with an axe”.
(Bertolt Brech, slightly altered)

"Structural violence
is a form of violence wherein some social structure or social institution may harm people by preventing them from meeting their basic needs or rights."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_violence

When residents express their concerns about the prolonged toxic pollution to the relevant state institutions, the response is along the lines of 'close up your house, stay indoors or move away and shut up.'

Meaning: those who use their fundamental right to freedom of speech and temind the public of the Palestineans’ fundamental right to their own state, are SILENCED by mere force - just another Human Rights violation by (the majority? of) the Israeli Parliament. #structuralviolence #Israel #humanrights

Whiteness doesn’t deliver the promised safety or ease.

It produces fragility, isolation, and rage and then asks the rest of us to bear the consequences of its mythology.
