I think a major factor in so many people being kind of blasé or in denial about ~all this~ is that they’ve been waiting to be given some sort of paternal-ish permission to start freaking out.
So, here ya go. Here’s the permission.

Never again to all of it. www.discourseblog.com/p/never-again
"Never again." That’s what you’re supposed to say about genocide. So I wrote for @discourseblog.com about all the things we should say "never again" to after 15 months of genocide in Gaza.

Mark Zuckerberg's kowtowing to Trump is noxious and ugly. But most of all, it's pathetic. www.discourseblog.com/p/look-at-th...
Two things:
1. Mark Zuckerberg looks like a clown.
2. His Trump standom is gross and ugly and all of that—but mostly it is pathetic. This is loser behavior! These tech giants are LOSERS and we should say so.
