It should terrify every, particularly nonwhite, person that the US cannot confirm or deny that it still believes in the Geneva Convention…

Thinking you can get the French to NOT protest something is objectively hilarious.

Because the government won't put some fucking teeth into it and cut off Israel's funding until they stop the genocide.

They have no reason whatsoever to take any American advice or requests seriously until that happens.

Biden administration officials say Israel’s counterattack against Hamas has been too severe and too costly in civilian casualties, but they are unable to exert significant influence on America’s closest ally in the Middle East to change its course. https://t.co/bOiUspVHAo

Don't equate anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism, Adam Serwer writes. "There is nothing anti-Semitic about anti-Zionists who believe that the existence of a religious or ethnically defined state is inherently racist." https://t.co/C7CNpMMCrh

An English message for an Arabic-speaking population whose communications you’ve already cut off is how you know this is propaganda for Western audiences.

According to the New York Times figures, Netanyahu has killed more Israeli hostages than Hamas officials (13)

Obama: "[I]t is possible for people of good will to champion Palestinian rights and oppose certain Israeli government policies in the West Bank and Gaza without being anti-semitic." https://t.co/fatNKpthH4

Developer got a tax break to the tune on $10 million. In exchange, they were supposed to make their housing rent stabilized.

They didn’t.

Instead, they overcharged tenants.

Recently found out that one of the big incely accounts on here that sells guides to American guys on how to be alphas is actually ran by 2 women in India and idk why that’s so damn funny

Naked corporate greed at the expense of public health.

After just two days, the Biden campaign already has more followers than the Trump campaign on Truth Social

If anything in America radicalized Muslims the way right-wing talk radicalizes old white dudes, it would have been banned decades ago.

After the biggest strike in U.S. health care history, 85,000 Kaiser Permanente workers won huge concessions.

Workers will now vote on a 21% raise over four years, a minimum wage of $25 in California, and $23 in other states.

Unions work. Strikes work.

Moore v. US is a huge deal.

If SCOTUS strikes down the repatriation tax, massive corporations will get billions in tax giveaways.

Here’s the kicker: Justice John Roberts and Samuel Alito together hold stock in 19 companies who would get over $30 billion in tax breaks.

Unreal.

This is long, but a good piece on a terrible subject. I don't agree with everything in it, but I appreciate the attempt to view the nuance, grey areas and humanity.
