A glorious May Day to all my trouble-makers out there!! Fortuitous, because I have an announcement: my newest article is now published and online. It is for the Special Issue in tribute to the late great anarchist anthropologist David Graeber @davidgraeber

It's hard not to notice that defenses of social justice work mostly turn on insisting that scholar-activism is a made up right-wing term—despite hiring committees, grant orgs, and scholars using it—rather than simply saying "here's why scholar-activist work is good and matters."

Cops are like vampires. They will bleed a city dry. There are never enough hires, never enough trainings, never enough equipment, never enough overtime. Of course never enough money to settle abuse and violations, killings, human rights abuses. Their mythology serves them well.

The planet's most fanatical Israel loyalists now own and control (or are about to) Paramount, CBS, TikTok, Warner Brothers, CNN: all acquired in the last two years by Netanyahu's close friend, Larry Ellison, right as public support for Israel in the US and the west collapses:

Grateful to have this out in @IntSecHarvard. @jessicacweiss and I show how Cold War analogies obscure more than they reveal about US-China relations. 1/6

Kshama: We can’t trust DSA because they serve as a mechanism to funnel people back into the Democratic Party

DSA: Proceeds to prove her right by refusing to support her campaign against a Democrat because she is running Independent

[Paul Schofield @pschofie79]

Honestly, everything he does is perfect as far as I can tell.

Lmao I forgot that Jake Tapper wrote this corny shit in 2003

[Chase Madar @ChaseMadar]

Stevens and McMorrow should have moderated their radical views on Middle East policy, views which are increasingly out of step with Michigan voters

[Free Palestine @BetwixtWorldss]

First it’s Pasadena and now it’s Long Beach. The US military “practicing” urban warfare in multiple cities should be a humongous red flag to all Americans. The fact that city leaders are rolling over for fascist drills shows all of us where the allegiance is and it isnt with us

We warned the world that Gaza is the testing ground for a lawless new world order.

This’s Lebanon now…

When the students of Columbia started their encampments in April 2024, their main demand was divestment of the university from Israel. Soon, students from multiple universities followed suit.

Because those encampments were brutally shut down, divestment was never even considered.

Two years later, this is the result:

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

This is why there's a massive and more-blatant-than-ever global campaign by Israel and its loyalists in all countries to censor and criminalize Israel criticism by re-defining it as hate speech.

It's also why Larry Ellison bought CBS, Paramount, TikTok, trying to buy WB, etc.

[Oliver Larkin for Congress @OliverALarkin]

Rep. @SummerForPA is right.

Jared Moskowitz has accused Rep. Omar of “rabid antisemitism.”

He called for “everyone” to join him censuring Rep. Tlaib.

He said Army veteran and combat surgeon Dr. Hamawy is “not in line with our values.”

Anti-Muslim bigotry has no place in FL25.

[Summer Lee @SummerForPA]

The silence from Democrats when Muslim colleagues and candidates are attacked is a cancerous rot.

We cannot lead our country out this moment if we're willing to accept the abuse or dehumanization of any marginalized group.

[Angleton’s Orchids @AngletonOrchids]

TL;DR: The guy who was kidnapped and beaten by the IDF is a narcissist because he wrote mean tweets about “working tirelessly for a ceasefire” AOC and “I support Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state” Bernie.

[Clarence Thomas the Tank Engine @TheRealJChubby]

Love him or hate him it's hard to deny that he is really fucking good at this politics shit.

[Mark Ames @MarkAmesExiled]

DC Dems are anxious because Platner got popular by running against DC Dems, their donors and their beloved Israel. obviously they want Platner to lose more than they want to win the Senate back. It’s a lucrative racket they built, they won’t let go of that bone easily.

[Adam Johnson @adamjohnsonCHI]

Rashida Tlaib and the winner of the NJ-12 primary Adam Hamawy were casually smeared as “terrorists” by mainline politicians and commentators over the past 24 hours. Will we get panicked trend pieces about “Muslim safety” and the “alarming rise in anti-Muslim racism?” We will not.
