Soft Digital Repression: Challenges And Strategies For Resistance

June 23, 2026 Rezgar Akrawi, Breakthrough News. Strategize! Algorithms, Repression, Science and technology, Surveillance

During the recent assault on Gaza, thousands of activists witnessed their posts deleted or their accounts restricted simply for documenting Israeli occupation crimes or expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people. This is far from an isolated phenomenon. In India, the government issued emergency orders to block dozens of accounts during the farmers’ protests, while human rights organizations documented the suspension of accounts belonging to large numbers of journalists and activists merely for criticizing government policies.

New School Investigates Student Leaders Who Voted To Strip Hillel Of Funding Over Genocide Complicity

When members of The New School’s Student Senate were faced with a report detailing how Hillel International was providing material and logistical support to Israel’s atrocities in Gaza, they voted on May 1 to cut all ties with their campus chapter of the national Jewish college network and to strip its funding. The student leaders hoped the school’s administration would go on to investigate Hillel’s presence on its New York City campus. Instead, after an intense pressure campaign by pro-Israel groups, advocates, and elected representatives, the university’s administration is now investigating the student senators who voted to cut ties with Hillel.

US Imposes Sanctions On Gaza Flotilla Organisers

The United States has imposed sanctions on four activists for their involvement in the flotillas trying to break Israel’s siege on Gaza, alleging without evidence that organisers of the vessels are trying to reach the Palestinian territory “in support of Hamas”. The sanctions on Tuesday come as the Israeli military continues to intercept the latest fleet of Gaza-bound ships. While the humanitarian crisis from the Israeli blockade on Gaza has eased since the “ceasefire” brokered by US President Donald Trump came into effect in October, Palestinians have continued to suffer from shortages, including in food and medical supplies.

No Peace For Paz: Bolivian Movements Demand President Resign

The protests in Bolivia against Rodrigo Paz’s neoliberal government continue to intensify. The main roads leading into and out of La Paz and El Alto remain closed following violent clashes between protesters and state forces on May 16. Over 50 people have been arrested, and dozens been injured. The roadblocks have triggered a genuine and critical political and economic crisis in Bolivia. Initially, the first protests were launched by groups of farmers who opposed the controversial Law 1720, considered one of the most significant agricultural reforms in Bolivian history.

Reforming ICE And The Police State Is Like Punching Waves

January 28, 2026 Lee Camp, Truth & Freedom. Strategize! ICE, Police, Repression, State Repression, US Imperialism

Here in the United States we want our “law enforcement” to be killers. We want big, dumb meat heads with zero accountability and even less diplomacy. We want them to have itchy trigger fingers and the interpersonal skills of potted plants. We want them looking and acting like defensive linemen with badges, guns and daddy issues. (Not that actual defensive linemen don’t have daddy issues.) That’s what we seem to desire here in the Land of The Free™ (and the Largest Prison State of The Free™). And apparently we have it.

In 2025, Educators Didn’t Just Endure Repression; They Built Resistance

On a humid June afternoon, I arrived at Florida International University expecting to give what I thought would be a standard talk on my new book, Teach Truth, about the escalating assault on antiracist education. But when historian and freedom fighter Dr. Marvin Dunn took me to the campus, he made clear this would be no ordinary event. “This is Florida,” he said. “They banned saying ‘systemic racism’ in the classroom.” I knew this was true in theory. But when he locked eyes with me and I saw the turmoil beneath his composure, it became profoundly real.

Germany: Critics Of The Government Are Losing Their Bank Accounts

The German Communist Party (DKP) announced earlier this month that several associated bank accounts (including that of the party executive) will be terminated as of December 31, 2025. The reasons for the account termination remain unclear and the act in itself raises more questions than answers. The case has also drawn attention to a trend in Germany that appears to be resurfacing more and more: attacks on the material foundations of actors who criticize the German government, and especially its policies on war.

Your Anti-Communism Problem And Mine

On November 7, 2025, Donald J. Trump declared Anti-Communism Week 2025 as “a solemn remembrance of the devastation caused by one of history’s most destructive ideologies.” He proclaimed that communism was a story of “blood and sorrow” and amounted to nothing more than servitude. The following statement is particularly noteworthy: “New voices now repeat old lies, cloaking them in the language of ‘social justice’ and ‘democratic socialism,’ yet their message remains the same: give up your freedom, place your trust in the power of the government, and trade the promise of prosperity for the empty comfort of control.”

After Canadian Police Raid Homes, Six Peace Activists Face Charges

London, Ontario police carried out coordinated pre-dawn raids on November 25 against four homes across southern Ontario, targeting members of the anti-war and Palestinian-solidarity group World Beyond War (WBW). The raids bring to six the number of peace activists charged in relation to a protest of more than 100 people against the Best Defence Conference in London at the end of October, an arms-industry gathering attended by Israeli-linked weapons manufacturers and Canadian military officials. The sweeping operation saw officers burst into homes at 6 a.m., frighten children, seize personal electronic devices and haul activists hours away from their communities.

Soldiers Must Disobey Unlawful Orders Under Trump

The courageous action of six Democratic members of Congress has thrust into the national discourse the duty of military and CIA personnel to disobey Donald Trump’s illegal orders. As the Trump administration continues to unlawfully murder people in small vessels in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific, deploy the National Guard to U.S. cities, and ignore court orders, the six lawmakers were moved to act. In a 90-second video organized by Sen. Elissa Slotkin (Michigan), two senators and four Congress members, all U.S. military or CIA veterans, take turns reading a statement to active servicemembers, urging them to refuse to follow illegal orders.

US Detains British Journalist During Tour After Israel Criticism

US authorities detained a British Muslim journalist on Sunday, apparently due to his criticism of Israel, according to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (Cair). Sami Hamdi was held by the Department of Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) agency at San Francisco international airport during a speaking tour in the US. Hamdi had spoken at a Cair gala on Saturday in Sacramento, where he condemned Israel's genocide in Gaza. He was scheduled to speak at another Cair event in Florida on Sunday. Cair has described the detention as retaliation for Hamdi's criticism of Israel, calling it an "abduction". “Detaining a prominent British Muslim journalist and political commentator during his speaking tour in the United States simply for daring to criticise the Israeli government’s actions is a blatant attack on free speech,” the Washington-based Cair said in a statement.

Thousands Of Film Workers Pledge To End Complicity With Genocide

In recent months, a wave of artists throughout the entertainment industry has begun speaking out against Israel’s genocide in Gaza. On September 8, more than 1,200 film workers — including A-list stars like Olivia Colman, Tilda Swinton, and Riz Ahmed — publicly pledged to refuse any work with Israeli film companies that are “implicated in genocide and apartheid against the Palestinian people.” Since September, thousands more filmworkers have signed onto the pledge, with the number of signatories now exceeding 5,000. “Both the language of this pledge, which echoes the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement’s emphasis on institutional complicity, and its material commitment to reject offers to work with nearly all Israeli film companies, represent a significant shift for a film world dominated by executives who have either remained silent about or vocally supported Israel’s genocide in Gaza for the past two years.

FIDH Report: The Repression Of The Solidarity Movement With Palestine

Behind the fight against hate, a trend of repressing dissenting voices is emerging. Titled Criminalisation and Narrative Control: Solidarity with Palestine in the Crosshairs, the report documents how across all the countries studied, the dynamics observed since 7 October 2023 have intensified pre-existing structural trends: the continued shrinking of civic space, the weakening of democratic safeguards, the normalisation of Islamophobia, and the institutionalisation of racial profiling. Under the guise of maintaining public order, fighting antisemitism, or protecting national security, authorities have resorted to exceptional measures such as bans on demonstrations, arbitrary arrests, repression within academic institutions, media censorship, and legislative threats.
