Israeli Forces and Settlers Have Killed Over 1,000 Palestinians in West Bank Amid Genocide Israeli forces shot and killed fourth grader Mohammad Bahjat Al-Hallaq while he was playing soccer with friends.

"The number of Palestinians killed by Israeli forces or settlers in the occupied West Bank amid the Gaza genocide has surpassed 1,000, according to the UN, after soldiers killed a young Palestinian child while he was reportedly playing soccer."

state legislators go on junkets to israel (and did well before the genocide) bc israel, through its proxies in the u.s. jewish and evangelical establishments, lobbies for legislation at the state level to suppress anti-israel speech,and to encourage ties between israel and their local economies.

Israel is deliberately depriving people of aid in #Gaza.

MSF’s new report shows how restrictions blocked medical supplies, sometimes even forcing our teams to perform procedures without anesthesia.

Hats off to her for doing the right thing. But ask yourself why this is notable or exceptional. This should be the baseline expectation of our elected officials. That they’re not in the streets defending constituents from fascists is a damning indictment.

The hellscape where I am is falling asunder and normies simply haven't noticed. Lolz

Watching midsommar and reminded that the only enduring white cultural tradition is genocide

End the genocide, repatriate Palestinians, pay every reparation, jail war criminals, shun enablers. Teach kids that antisemitism is the socialism of fools, that colonialism persists and always looks the same, not driven by religion or ethnicity, but by the twisted will to power. /end

Conflating anti-zionism with antisemitism means that when zionism drives war crimes, people will believe *that* is Judaism. Those predisposed to believe in spiritual causes may believe this hard enough to reinvigorate QAnon, this time abusing real data points instead of memes. /16

These people are addicted to waking up, over and over again, to everything except the history of colonial destruction that allows them to be who they are, or the Global South exploitation that lets them monetize goji berries or the orientalism that powers their spiritual tourism. /15

Now, they do not have to imagine the murder of children, or the poisoning of food, or the use of AI or drones to oneshot innocents, or the endless numbers. The worst hallucinations of the QAnon world are now reality. But they will misdiagnose the horror just the same. /14

It is the same imaginarium that drew them to QAnon. Only now, they do not have to imagine unaccountable elites. They can see them giving press conferences, lying to the papers, saying one thing in English and another in Hebrew. Nothing to bake, the code is broken. /13

Their instinct is to see all motivations as having spiritual roots. Esoteric forces of evil push history towards the edge. So now they’re commenting under clips of MTG & Carlson decrying Israel: “Finally we’re waking up to the real Satan.” I’m pretty sure they mean Judaism. /12

These are not people with a material analysis of the world. They do not hear extreme religious rhetoric as cynically instrumental to capitalism or empire. So what happens when they hear Netanyahu quote Amalek, or see Ben Gvir at al-Aqsa? They know it’s a holy war. /11

Now I’m seeing an increasing number of anti-Israel posts from folks who, like Eisenstein, went from Q-adjacent drug trips into the political relevance of MAHA. It gave them a taste for action. Now, like the rest of us, they’re watching a real livestreamed genocide. /10

Some of these defectors, like his former comms director Charles Eisenstein, articulated clear anti-zionist positions from a Jewish POV, clarifying the categorical difference between anti-zionism and antisemitism. But there’s a contingent who can’t or won’t do that. /9

Brief: RFK Jr. Loses New Age Support Over Israel — Conspirituality Matthew reports on the developments in RFK Jr's campaign and poses the questions: What is it about Gaza that suddenly makes the mainstream media reports credible to conspiritualists—as opposed to the ...

Others, whose roots in wellness were peacenik and antiwar, smelled a rat. By November of 2023, Bobby Brainworm was shedding support over the emerging genocide:

He’s also a hardcore Zionist, ruthless as they come: “Israel is our aircraft carrier in the region.” “The Palestinians are the most pampered people in history.” He put Israel in the chat. Some MAHA mamas would have found this disgusting racist imperial garbage to be just fine. /7

The MAHA movement provided the dopamine of agency to an otherwise depoliticized demographic. They were now engaged, because RFK Jr is a real person who files lawsuits and raises money and brokers deals through his nepo network and rolodex of women. /6

As LARP Q fizzled, RFK Jr stepped into the vacuum as an IRL thirst-trap Q, giving an erstwhile fantasy club a socially respectable path to power where selling supplements and gong baths could be rebranded as both patriotic ritual and pseudo public health training. /5

When QAnon Came to Canada | The Walrus As the conspiracy theories continue to creep northward, experts warn that we should be prepared for anything

For the most part these folks were clueless about QAnon being a blood libel reboot. When I brought this to their attention in interviews in 2020 many were taken aback. Some stepped away from it, but some shrugged and digital-soldiered on.

NOTE: Because one core problem is political ignorance, this crowd could lean just as hard into bog standard Islamophobia. That has been a reality under the influence of various Hindutva yoga gurus, but it hasn’t been predominant recently. /3

TLDR: some will go full circle, from QAnon hallucination to (what feels to them like) QAnon confirmation as they watch livestreamed mass murder. The constant will be blaming religious and ethnic difference instead of seeing the root horrors of capitalism and colonialism. /2

I’ve seen enough posts spiralling in a certain direction to offer a prediction on how genocide in Gaza will increase real antisemitism within parts of the yoga and wellness crowd I’ve written about—folks who became mainstream vectors for QAnon and antivax propaganda. /1

It is making me very very nervous

even if you could reform this, why would you want to instead of disbanding it and reenvisioning public safety from scratch

Yet another family ripped apart by the brutality of ICE. What a tragedy.

If only there was something poor Tom Homan, acting director of the U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement Agency could do about it...

on Mamdani's city-run groceries idea, "laboratories of democracy" are one of the great U.S. strengths - even if you don't think it's likely to work, it's really interesting to see it tested. Maybe it'll be really successful! Maybe it'll fail for reasons we don't expect!
