1. Palestinian people need protection and a Fatah-run, co-existing state. 2. Israeli people need protection and a new fucking government, co-existing state. 3. Hamas needs to face ICC tribunal. 4. Netanyahu government needs to face ICC tribunal. rational unambiguous correct

In summer 2023, hundreds of thousands of Israelis were in the streets protesting Netanyahu’s corruption.

That same summer, Palestinians protested against Hamas.

But then…rally round the family.

Pockets full of shells.

Social media post reads: The fact that you can't raise taxes on billionaires even slightly without them pouring money into fascist political movements is, of itself, evidence that billionaires as a class shouldn't be allowed to exist in the first place.

Seems like all the memoirs about growing up white in the '60s or '70s take place in either apolitical suburbia or communes & cults.

Deleted previous version of this that omitted white.

when carlson criticizes israel, he has two goals:

1. redirect funds to ethnic cleansing and genocide in the US
2. recruit people on the left to the Nazi cause.

These are the rules of a civilized, disciplined society.

A woman wearing a straw hat, sunglasses, and a yellow top stands at a street protest holding a large handmade sign that reads “ALT RIGHT DELETE,” with the word “RIGHT” marked by a crossed-out swastika symbol. The sign is decorated with barbed wire drawings and red handprints, while other protesters gather in the background on a city street.

What strategy

“Section 14 of the Press Law ordered editors ‘to keep out of the newspapers anything which…tends to weaken the strength of the German Reich, outwardly or inwardly.’”

- William Shirer, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, p. 405

The Lebanese President has condemned the killing of two senior journalists and a cameraman in a targeted strike saying: ‘This is a brazen crime that violates all the norms and treaties under which journalists enjoy international protection in wars, in accordance with the 1949 Geneva Conventions’

Just two generations ago, a violent form of Jewish nationalism was rejected by mainstream Jewish leaders.

Now, it leads the #American regime of creepy weirdos around by the nose.

Rather remarkable.

Life sure comes at you fast.
