The Arab Spring rose up to fight corruption, repression, inequality and austerity. The Lebanon and Iraq protests show this spirit is still very much alive. If we want a progressive future, we need to build up a global movement of and for working people.pic.twitter.com/KTheQouKK8

If people would be amenable to having actual conversation than knee-jerk reactions, Twitter could be an amazing tool to connect with people and educate/share ideas. Instead, people often misconstrue intent and meaning and go for ah hominem attacks. It’s so sad to see.

Ad hominem* I really need twitter to give me an edit button.

When people say this shit about certain non-white revolutions, what they're really saying is... "I don't think these people are SMART ENOUGH and/or AGREE with revolution against that dictator or autocratic state! I can't POSSIBLY imagine it, so it MUST be West-manufactured"

It's the

And... let's not forget the
#bahrain revolt a while back. The Saudis crushed that like no tomorrow, sadly. Not sure how a "West-manufactured" revolution there would allow it to be crushed so easily. Or why 'the West' would have such a nation revolt so close to the SaudisMerci. Twitter en tiendra compte pour améliorer votre fil. SupprimerSupprimer

We looked and saw you pissing on the people of Lebanon and dismissing yet another Arab struggle as the work of US puppetmasters. Koli 5ara.

Nope. That’s not what happened.

Also... weren't the Egyptian rebels, a while ago, considered part of the
#arabspring? Rebels and revolutionaries who... overthrew a US-allied dictator in the country. Funny that a "West-manufactured" revolution would overthrow one of its own... for an 'Islamist' alternative - Fin de la conversation
