    Under-16s Social Media “Ban” = Digital ID by Back Door?

    Wednesday, 21 January 2026 — Together

    Proposals to “ban” under-16s from social media should be opposed. (A consultation on doing so has just been announced.)

     

    This policy would be a serious mistake – undermining parental responsibility, civil liberties, child safety, and democratic accountability, while being unworkable in practice. Five reasons why:

    Monday, 19 January 2026 — Strategic Culture Foundation

    By Pepe Escobar

    The article discusses the ongoing tensions between the “Empire” and Iran, highlighting the failure of multiple regime change attempts. It outlines the neo-Caligula administration’s continued efforts, including threats to bomb Iran and the failed efforts to sway the Iranian population with propaganda. Despite economic sanctions, Iran has maintained strong international ties and a growing economy. Tehran remains resolute against pressure, emphasizing its strategic position in Eurasia and alliances with countries like China. The piece underscores the deepening geopolitical conflict in the region and the Empire’s fear of being forced out of Eurasia.Cocoon AI Summary

    The weight of death

    By Elia Rosa Yera Zayas Bazán
    Adelante

    CAMAGÜEY, Cuba — Yohandris Varona Torres saw the photos of the 32 Cubans killed in Venezuela on Jan. 3 and could not help but become emotional. He did so this morning during the tribute held in the Nicolás Guillén Protocol Hall in Camagüey. It was not the first time he had looked at them. He did not have images of strangers in front of him. They were his comrades. And we know that death becomes more real when it touches close to your family, friends, your team.

    The US bombing of Venezuela and kidnapping of its president and first lady showcased the current hyper-imperialist stage of the world order. Although a new mood has emerged in the Global South, it is not yet a developed challenge to the collective West.

    Jan. 5 — The events of the past 72 hours represent a qualitative escalation in the 25 years of regime change operations by the US government against the Bolivarian Revolution in Venezuela. The United States’ execution of “Operation Absolute Resolve”, a targeted bombing raid and the illegal abduction of President Nicolás Maduro, has created a moment of profound crisis but also profound clarity. For revolutionary forces globally, a concrete analysis is required to cut through the disinformation, understand the objective balance of forces, and chart a path forward.

    From Arroyo Naranjo, Cuba

    Gerardo Hernández Nordelo, the national coordinator of Cuba’s Committees for the Defense of the Revolution (CDR), has a large office on the top floor of the organization’s headquarters on the busy Línea Avenue in Havana. The problem is you will never find him there. Hernández, one of the Cuban Five heroes who spent 16 years in U.S. federal prisons for monitoring the activities of anti-Cuban terrorists operating with impunity in South Florida, is making up for lost time circulating around Cuba, listening to the needs and problems of the people at the community level while engaging in homegrown methods of solving them.
