It's also an example of what a lie the "just asking questions", "fairness in sports", "I'll march with you if..." stuff always was. Because it's hard to think of a clearer cut example of a terf issue based on an alleged *principle* - single sex spaces - that has now become a *personal* vendetta.

Or should I tell you that I am powerless to help save his life?
My beloved Arafat is going to die and I am helpless.

I beg you to donate if you can. 😭

Cops keep showing up to arts events about Palestine. What can organizers do? Toronto police showed up at a comedy fundraiser and at a film screening on the same night in April. Organizers describe how this fits into a broader pattern and what can be done to protect community…

Toronto: What we’re seeing now is that (police) are not even distinguishing between protests, academic events or cultural events. Any time there are Palestinians speaking about Palestine, they are viewed as potentially anti-semitic or promoting violence.” www.thegrindmag.ca/cops-keep-sh...

When I was a writing tutor, I had a student who brought in an essay for which she somehow wrote the body before “picking” a thesis because she couldn’t come up with one and wanted me to help her.

This talk of removing the process from journalism to get to the output faster reminds me of that girl.

And this is another reason that ppl keep reiterating what a betrayal the Dem party has been. That very specific dynamic of avoidance and sabotage that has shifted the Overton window speaks a lot to lack of meaningful conviction.

Tbh ever since I learned about social and moral bypassing I can't unsee the way that avoidance shapes dominant culture and it's institutions.
