There is a lot of talk about the overlap between incels and white supremacists, but the alt-right has a growing group that doesn’t get a lot of attention. Let me introduce you to Divestors, Black women who represent a gendered fascism. It's a wild thread. Buckle up🧵 (1/25)
Before I get into it, let me define what the alt-right is, just so we are clear. Here are a few definitions (2/25)
“Alt-right adherents identify with a range of different ideologies, all of which center on white identity.”

1/ @TotalEnergies' East African Crude Oil Pipeline is corporate colonialism in action.

We're unraveling the financial web of the world’s largest proposed pipeline. It's time to #StopEACOP & invest in a climate-safe future.

🧵 Who's banking on EACOP? ⬇️ bit.ly/CSPNCasestudy
2/ Canada’s #1 fossil fuel bank is bankrolling the EACOP pipeline – threatening drinking water of 40 million AND worsening the climate emergency.

We don’t have time for fossil fools: tell @RBC to stop investing in climate chaos now ⬇️

3/ Just 15 U.S. pensions are heavily invested in @TotalEnergies & @CNOOCUgandaLt to the tune of $1 billion.

Harvard’s decision to #divest its $40 plus billion endowment fund from fossil fuels is a precedent-setting event that warrants the attention of decisionmakers globally. Here’s why. 🧵
With help from @Climate_Defense, @DivestHarvard students did something that hasn’t been done before: filed a complaint with @MassAGO, arguing that Harvard’s investments in fossil fuels runs afoul of the university’s charitable mission. via @emilypont grist.org/climate-energy…
The complaint continued that the failure of Harvard to divest may be seen as a violation of the law. The issue needed to be vetted using the investigative resources of the @MassAGO. via @thecrimson thecrimson.com/article/2021/5…

Hi, it’s your friendly neighborhood climate scientist. Facing the #climatecrisis is tough! Here’s the essentials you need to know, tips for finding where you can contribute with purpose and meaning to the work needed, and evidence-based high-impact climate actions. A THREAD: 1/n
(A quick introduction if we haven’t met: I’m a climate and sustainability scientist @lunduniversity in Sweden. I research personal & policy climate solutions, sustainable food & land systems, & wine & climate change. My goal: a world where people and nature can thrive. 2/n)
@lunduniversity #ClimateChange science has been clear for a long time. I’ve taught this framework for over a decade:
It’s warming
It’s us
We’re sure
It’s bad
We can fix it.

Why is @YouTube partnering with fake charity @JudicialWatch to premier a propaganda movie 'ObamaGate' about debunked QAnon 'deep state' conspiracy theory?

C'mon Susan Wojcicki @SusanWojcicki YouTube CEO and Sundar Pichai @sundarpichai CEO, Google, do better. #BoycottYouTube
Dear YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki @SusanWojcicki and Google CEO Sundar Pichai @sundarpichai:

If you wouldn't premiere a Leni Riefenstahl Nazi propaganda movie, then don't give your platform to a debunked 'deep state ObamaGate' #QAnon conspiracy film.

#BoycottYouTube
Institutional shareholders of @Google, parent company of @YouTube, must hold execs accountable. YouTube must cancel the premiere of 'ObamaGate' movie about #QAnon conspiracy theory 'deep state.'

L’Europe veut mettre notre argent dans les énergies fossiles! Aujourd’hui nous votons sur les investissements dans les infrastructures énergétiques. Techno? Simple: va-t-on mettre notre argent ou pas dans la poche des pollueurs.#THREAD #climat #zerofossile
Fera-t-on bien le #GreenDeal pour protéger le #climat?! Selon deux rapports de Corporate Europe Observatory @corporateeurope , c’est mal parti : les fossiles ont encore toutes leurs entrées au royaume de la Commission européenne! Exemples.
corporateeurope.org/en/a-grey-deal
Les principaux commissaires en charge du #EUGreenDeal #GreenDeal les ont rencontré 151 fois, soit 11 rencontres par semaine ! Et seulement 29 fois avec des représentants de l’intérêt général. Où est la #FossilFreePolitics ?!

Hey @DeutscheBank, you make a decision: make a #PositiveImpact to the fight against the #ClimateCrisis, or continue to support fossil fuels! A #Thread in english. #divest #followthemoney #gofossilfree #dbagm #BanksAgainstFuture
In 2019, the german climate activist @luisamneubauer said at the annual general meeting “It is the Deutsche Bank, which like no other bank, is stealing our future.” 💯 Whereupon CEO #Sewing announced "fewer projects to finance fossil fuels". manager-magazin.de/unternehmen/ba… 2/12
In order to avoid a similar situation this year, a PR campaign was rolled out in advance and now advertises in a press release with "ambitious sustainability targets". db.com/newsroom_news/… 3/12

Hey, @DeutscheBank, ihr steht vor der Wahl: #PositiverBeitrag zum Kampf gegen die #Klimakrise - oder weiter fossile Energien fördern und damit Mittäter des Klimawandels sein. Ein #Thread.

#divest #followthemoney #gofossilfree #dbagm #BanksAgainstFuture 1/12 Image
2019 sagte @Luisamneubauer auf der Hauptversammlung noch: "Es ist die Deutsche Bank wie keine andere Bank, die uns die Zukunft klaut." 💯
Worauf Vorstandvorsitzender #Sewing ankündigte, "weniger Projekte mit fossilen Energieträgern zu finanzieren". manager-magazin.de/unternehmen/ba… 2/12
Um sich Ähnliches dieses Jahr zu ersparen, hat die @DeutscheBank im Vorfeld eine PR-Kampagne ausgerollt und wirbt nun in einer Pressemitteilung mit „ambitionierten Nachhaltigkeitszielen“. db.com/newsroom_news/… 3/12

Any worker who contributes to *any* US pension is currently involuntarily giving their hard-earned $ to private equity firms to fund things like:

- weapons manufacturing
- privatization of hospitals
- oil, coal, fracking companies

YOU worked for that money. YOU gave your labor.

Then why aren't YOU allowed to know where YOUR money is going?

Look into the history of @OneCarlyle @KKR_co @Blackrock @Blackstone and the types of companies they invest in.

If you're in a pension, I suggest organizing and

Asking your pension fund's investment mgmt office why it is that YOUR money is going to #PirateEquity vultures.

This goes for college endowments too -- @DivestHarvard @DivestPrinceton and similar groups are doing the work of stopping investments into oil, fracking, etc.
