We also have lawyers in Muggle Britain, and they would think your lawyers are cute.

Right so, “resist” means *don’t* follow fascist orders.
Don’t take the art off the walls.
Don’t delete the website.
Don’t open the dams.

Play dumb. Ask for clarity, repeatedly. Lose the email. Misplace the keys. Stall. Ignore. Forget. Crawl.

You are the line, you hold it.

right, she's not even suggesting tried and true chinese competitive practices like jailing executives

Israel’s goal has obviously been to destroy the possibility of a decent life for Palestinians in Gaza in order to force them to leave and never come back. Trump saying the US should take over is a new twist, but ultimately a continuation of the same ethic cleansing policy

[by the princess ijruelan @frenchdipset]

When Biden was giving Israel $billions of bombs to destroy all of Gaza’s hospitals, water treatment facilities, electric infrastructure, universities, etc., plus over 80% of the homes, did you think he was doing it thinking surviving Gazans could come back once Israel was done?

[Nathan J Robinson @NathanJRobinson]

This is like asking Vietnam protesters "How do you feel about protesting LBJ's war now that Nixon is in office and escalating it?"
The answer is that there is an obligation to protest unjust wars and it would be immoral to give Democrats a free pass to commit atrocities.

You cannot continue bombing Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank and call it a ceasefire.

Luka was the primary point of failure in a 5 game Finals beatdown at Tatum’s hands and his team just shipped him out of town for peanuts rather than give him the supermax. You’re very much correct that Tatum is not in Luka’s tier, but it’s the opposite of how you mean it

[Hardwood Paroxysm @HPbasketball]

Tatum is an absolutely ELITE defensive player, an NBA champion, an isolation scorer with amazing footwork, a top level offensive player and STILL not in Luka's tier under any circumstances.

[by the princess ijruelan @frenchdipset]

Traded because they didn’t want to give him the supermax. You know who that didn’t happen to?

[by the princess ijruelan @frenchdipset]

I never want to hear Luka’s name in the same sentence with Jayson Tatum’s ever again btw

[by the princess ijruelan @frenchdipset]

The Mavs really heard Windy’s rant about Luka after Game 3 and said “you know what, he’s right”

[by the princess ijruelan @frenchdipset]

If only there were any examples from recent history of how it goes when you set out to “kill all the bad guys” who live among a civilian population and whether this tends to result in there being more or fewer “bad guys” afterward

[by the princess ijruelan @frenchdipset]

Wow so you’re saying that when you spend 15 mos engaged in wanton slaughter and destruction, it tends to make the people targeted by it mad? People want to fight back when they are driven from their homes and starved and every day their kids are dying? Gosh who could have known

Secretary Blinken says "we assess that Hamas has recruited almost as many new militants as it has lost."

It’s really easy to imagine the bullshit that could come. Very very simple for this to be a feint and a false dawn before yet more horrors to come. But even if so, the nature of the feint gives the lie to the Biden/Harris position of the past 15 months. Despicable.

[by the princess ijruelan @frenchdipset]

The only people this story could have come from are Trump and/or Netanyahu people, neither of which I am ever inclined to believe. So I hesitate, and am extremely wary of bullshit potentially to come.

But if it’s real, a lot of soul-searching is in order for a lot of people.

This is how Haaretz tells it. Who knows but lol

It’s legit not just that he would have won, it’s that he very plausibly could have won to such a degree with it would have fundamentally changed American politics. Remember that this was all prior to Access Hollywood.

@HPbasketball Unfortunately for SGA, I have been reliably informed by NBA twitter that it is categorically impossible for a guard to deserve DPOY ☹️ very sad

Introducing the Trump Train: an American built train capable of going up to 200 mph! We need these trains to connect all major cities in the country together so that everyone can get on the Trump Train 🇺🇸🚄

I really hope people don’t just take from this that congestion pricing works but that WE CAN TRY THINGS. Things can change!!

so many bloviating free-speech warriors in this country, so much cowardly silence over the worst cancel culture/ repression of free speech in my lifetime
