@JDVance Sorry but you were the only baby ever worth choosing crack over. Every time your mom neglected you was justified. Sorry. Amy Adams sucked in that movie too, sorry. Nothing you touch ever goes right. You should try some of Elon’s medicine sometime. Sorry.
Chicago Police knock near 80yo woman to ground w/their batons; don’t let her pick up her cane & refuse to help her up. It perfectly captures the truth of CPD at DNC.
If this is how CPD “protects & serves” old ladies in broad daylight—now you can better understand CPD’s violent repression at night #DNC #FreePalestine
Michael Phelps is literally referred to as a freak of nature because of his disproportionate wingspan, double jointed ankles, lung capacity twice that of an average human, body that produces half the lactic acid of a typical athlete, and he is rightly celebrated for being the greatest male swimmer in history. Meanwhile, female athletes with genetic differences are legally discriminated against and harassed to no end. This is not about “protecting women in sports” - this is about protecting a very specific idea of what a woman is.
Israeli propaganda in particular is rooted in glaring logical fallacies. At first glance, you may be shocked that something so ridiculous can be so effective. Then you realize that the nonsensical nature of propaganda is precisely its strongest suit, because it is a distraction. The Zionist regime burnt people alive in their tents, in a livestreamed massacre with countless eyewitnesses, and yet many of us are debating what happened and “debunking” israeli claims when in fact this distraction has always been the goal. There are no good faith debates in the time of genocide. I’m not delivering this eloquently but ultimately after 8 months of this bullshit, one must learn to recognize things for what they are.
@gcaw you’re a genocide bootlicker. It’s fucking shameful that we are in the same family. Any time your name is brought up as some sort of pride point for the family I’ll direct them to the vile trash you have written many times over.
You have children. Imagine if someone murdered them under the guise of “war” and a depraved imperial sycophant such as yourself defended that from the comfort of their safe home.
The lack of even a morsel of empathy for Palestinians, including children, is not obscured by your faux intellectual bullshit writing. Your immorality is on full fucking display
My atonement for participating in Israel's ethnic-cleansing state is fighting for the freedom of all those oppressed, including Palestinians.
I'm running for Congress against Debbie Wasserman Schultz bc we need leaders who will stand up to injustice.

WATCH-- @chrislhayes: It's easier to argue about what college kids are doing than to confront the human misery and destruction that's happening in the actual conflict which is, of course, the source of these protests.
SO.. Hear me out .. @RealHughJackman was in one of the best ever penguin movies... I am raising money for WWF in order to save the penguins... Therefore Hugh Jackman should retweet this tweet and help the cause?!?
Makes sense right?

A right-wing Israeli mob came to my family’s home yesterday to search for me, threatening close family members who fled to another town in the middle of the night. I am still getting death threats and had to cancel my flight home. This happened after Israeli media and German politicians absurdly labeled my Berlinale award speech - where I called for equality between Israelis and Palestinians, a ceasefire and an end to apartheid - as ‘antisemitic’. The appalling misuse of this word by Germans, not only to silence Palestinian critics of Israel, but also to silence Israelis like me who support a ceasefire that will end the killing in Gaza and allow the release of the Israeli hostages - empties the word antisemitism of meaning and thus endangers Jews all over the world. As my grandmother was born in a concentration camp in Libya and most of my grandfather’s family was murdered by Germans in the holocaust, I find it particularly outraging that German politicians in 2024 have the audacity to weaponize this term against me in a way that endangered my family. But above all else, this behavior puts Palestinian co-director Basel Adra’s life in danger, who lives under a military occupation surrounded by violent settlements in Masafer Yatta. He is in far greater danger than I am. I’m happy our award winning film, No Other Land, is sparking an important international debate on this issue - and I hope that millions of people watch it when it comes out this year. Sparking a conversation is why we made it. You can have harsh criticism of what me and Basel said on stage without demonizing us. If this is what you’re doing with your guilt for the holocaust - I don’t want your guilt.
“To stand on German soil as the son of Holocaust survivors and call for a ceasefire – and to then be labelled as antisemitic is not only outrageous, it is also literally putting Jewish lives in danger,” @yuval_abraham told the Guardian
