Okay, I’ll define Woke 1 for everybody. In short:

—Trying to imposing ideological hegemony instead of material change
—An emphasis on discipline over persuasion
—An emphasis on expression over tactics
—An emphasis on identity over class
—Symbolic gestures as political action

Personally, as someone who was deployed to the Woke 1 wars in 2014, i take full responsibility for what it ended up looking like a decade later. "It's not my job to educate you" was actually the most insane, detrimental and endlessly parroted line of that early Woke 1 era

An incredible expose by Ronen Bergman shows how Israel invents quotes from Iranian officials in order to manufacture "evidence" that Iran is building nuclear weapons. This event took place on August 5th, when it was reported globally that Ahmad Vahidi, commander of the IRGC had admitted that Iran was developing nuclear weapons. The only problem? It wasn't true:

1) Netanyahu's pet network in Israel, Channel 14 spent months building Vahedi up as "the strongest man in Iran," priming audiences to treat any dramatic quote from him as coming from Iran itself. In reality, he is one power player among several.

2) An Indian Hindu nationalist account posts an earlier fabricated quote from Vahedi that says that nuclear weapons are a "necessity" for Iran. It does not get much traction.

3) The same account publishes a quote saying that Vahedi stated that Vahedi said that Iran will keep developing nuclear weapons as long as the US and Israel have them. There was no source.

4) The Mossad Commentary account, a large account with no affiliation to the actual Mossad posted the quote in English.

5) Channel 14, a mere 33 minutes later, covers this and claims that this is "the first time" an Iranian official directly admitted to building a nuclear bomb.

6) Three minutes later Yair Netanyahu, son of the Prime Minister, retweets Mossad Commentary, then three minutes later retweets Channel 14 English, followed later by Israel War Room.

7) Two hours later, Netanyahu senior cites the fabricated quote in an official speech at Mount Herzl, now the made up Tweet had become state policy.

8) The Tweet makes it to the US, US Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz shares it saying that Iran is "finally admitting what was clear for years," then deletes it without explanation.

9) Mark Levine shares it and then Fox News reports it as fact, including an on-screen headline.

10) Channel 14 now reports this again with FOX and Netanyahu as the source. Mossad Commentary, the original source of the English version, now cites Channel 14 as its source, completing a circular citation loop.

11) Israel's Foreign Ministry spreads Netanyahu's remarks to Persian-speaking audiences.

12) Indian news agency ANI reports the story back in India, attributing it to "Israeli media," completing the round trip.

This is a well oiled machine of disinformation emanating from Netanyahu and his circle designed to create a false narrative which will destroy negotiations with Iran and renew the war. Similar frauds have been perpetrated in the past like the Jewish Chronicle/Bild affair, when a made up journalist planted stories in the press to justify blowing up a hostage deal with Hamas. But this time he is dragging the entire world into endless war and not just Israel.

It's absolutely amazing that our political and media discourse is fixated on smearing every Israel critic as "anti-Semitic," and pretending the US suffers a crisis of an anti-Semitism epidemic, and demanding denunciation rituals to banish these Israel critics as unrepentent bigots, while one of the US President's closest advisors casually proclaims -- not for the first time -- that "Muslims need to be treated like enemy combatants" and should be barred from holding public office, echoing the statement yesterday from a sitting member of the US Congress that "every single Muslim is.... a threat to national security and our Republic."

Find me a single comment -- just one -- from Zohran Mamdani, Abdul El Sayed, Tucker Carlson, Thomas Massie or Hasan Piker about Jews that is even 1/1000th as bigoted and Nazi-like as the vomit puked up over the last 24 hours about ALL Muslims from Laura Loomer and Nancy Mace. (In reality, you can't find one comment from any of them that is anti-Semitic without conflating "Israel" and Jews, but even if you could, it'd be in a different universe entirely from the kinds of false and hateful accusations made every day by the most influential people about all American Muslims).

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

If someone made this exact same statement -- but replaced "Muslim" with "Jew" -- their career would not only be instantly and permanently destroyed, but their families, banks, communities and employers would be relentlessly hounded until they were denounced, disowned and banned.

This is the funniest part of the pied-a-terre tax freakout: newspapers & social media were full of people saying "No you don't understand--I've been committing insurance fraud, registration fraud, and income tax fraud for years. So I can't just submit my license or tax return"

Ecuador is an imperfect country inhabited by her native people doing their best to develop and evolve their country. "Israel" is an illegitimate apartheid construct, colonized by foreigners who have codified Jewish supremacy into law and is currently committing another genocide and project of ethnic cleansing against the indigenous population to steal more land.
big difference.
