I started a podcast with @AshkiZach Through this we’ll be exploring the political, cultural and social implications of life in diaspora. We hope that this will help lay the foundation for new ideological perspective of cultural life and identity. https://t.co/N2owJKbH3c

A right-wing Israeli journalist reports:

"This morning the IDF killed ten Gazans who insisted on returning from the south . . . Anyone who crossed a certain line, the soldiers shot him with intention to kill. After ten bodies, the Gazans understood the hint " (31 Dec)

@mangosocialism @aetherlift As I like to think about it, we need socialist internationalism to move away from geo-politics, and toward socio-politics.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

The Jerusalem Post, edited by @AviMayer, is openly advocating for the ethnic cleansing of Gaza. This is where we are now.

Only good theologically Christian interpretation of Christmas

[Cornel West @CornelWest]

Let us remain strong and steadfast in our commitment to and solidarity with those who are suffering here and abroad! The spirit of the Christ child born under occupation and domination is never snuffed out! Merry Christmas and let us rededicate ourselves to struggle for the least of these, as said in Matthew 25:40.

@VlStarodubtsev What about the history of the Ukrainian Jewish left? This seems like a significant erasure.

[🚩 Ben 🪬 🏴 @angry_bundist]

@notivaann This is crucial. It’s important to raise the particularities of the Jewish experience to emphasize the falsities of nationalist worldviews. Yet I wonder if one should go further to generalize: all people deserve freedom of movement and to live in peace in the places they reside.

[🚩 Ben 🪬 🏴 @angry_bundist]

@ScholemTzadak @PeterBeinart Or, just maybe, Palestinians and all people deserve the right to live in there homelands *and* to free movement in general

Like its colonial overlord, Puerto Rican politics have been largely dominated by a two party system, yet in recent years, that has shown cracks. This alliance between an anti-colonial leftist party and sovereigntists could break the system entirely.

[Jenaro Abraham @JenaroAbraham]

Check out my latest piece on Puerto Rico’s new electoral alliance between the @PIPtwitteando and the MVC @NACLA, and how said alliance poses a threat to US imperialism.

@Di3goBartolomeo @EuropeElects This is what you sound like: “The National Socialist German Workers Party is the only trustworthy party in Germany, the only patriotic party who will expel anti-nationals and unify the German nation” 🤡

The reason this happens is because Hamas fighters take off their shirts, wave white flags and shout Don't Shoot in Hebrew, which is a war crime because it makes it extremely difficult to distinguish between civilians and combatants. The death of civilians as a result is by design

Jews are being used as a rhetorical prop to launder the exact racism that closed the border to us when we were fleeing Europe

Someone should write a dissertation about the Christmasification of Chanukah and the commodification of Judaism in the US

[Councilwoman Inna Vernikov @InnaVernikov]

Tonight, on the third night of Chanuka, I am at the @NYYRC Gala proudly wearing a dress emblazoned in the flag of Israel 🇮🇱. So many Jewish New Yorkers & Jewish college students all over our country are afraid to display their Jewish identity, wear a Kipa, a Star of David, or express support for the great state of Israel. We cannot be afraid! We cannot remain silent! Be Jewish, Be Loud, Be Proud! This is where we live and we will not be intimidated!

PS: This dress was created by an incredible Project Runway winner & celebrity designer Irina Shabayeva who pulled it together in less than 24 hours. Irina, I am beyond grateful for your talent and tenacity. God bless America & God bless our only true ally in the Middle East- Israel! 🇮🇱🇺🇸 עם ישראל חי

Not prime talking about Yiddish in the abstract rather than as a living language, both vernacular and postvernacular, in religious and secular communities

The Hunger Games:
Zone 43 is today's death zone, abandon everything you have & move to zone 2305 or else you're fair game. Avoid zones 42, 44, 45 on the way.

Zone 2305 is tomorrow's death zone, go back to zone 43 which we fully reduced to rubble!

MOST GAZANS HAVE NO INTERNET...

@koshersemite It’s not realistic if Henry Ford isn’t hugely antisemitic
