Even in the celebrity-filled universe of cowardice, Paltrow selling apartments in an apartheid state is beyond pale.

Hasbara is so gross because it's just Zionists throwing walls of language at you to convince you you're not seeing what you're seeing.
You see raw video footage of the most horrifying thing imaginable in Gaza, and then you see them in the replies going "This is actually fine and normal because words words words words words words words."
You see a news report about Israel doing something astonishingly evil in Lebanon, and there they are underneath it going "There's actually a lot more to the story because words words words words words words words."
You see some far right Israeli minister spouting nakedly genocidal rhetoric, and they're swarming all over it saying "Well this isn't actually what it looks like because words words words words words words words."
You see every major human rights group on earth saying Israel is guilty of genocide and apartheid, and they're running around frantically telling you it's a giant conspiracy to frame Israel and the truth is that words words words words words words words.
You see more and more mainstream news institutions reporting on the mountains of evidence of widespread rape and torture in Israeli prisons, and they saturate the airwaves claiming it's an antisemitic blood libel because words words words words words words words.
The idea is to just pound your intellect with a firehose of verbiage until your inner sensemaker has been shredded and you're too confused to form a coherent picture of what's actually going on. It's a disgusting, abusive, and profoundly unethical thing to do to people.
But the good news is it's not working anymore. Language is immensely powerful, but its power has its limits. Israel's behavior has become so transparently unacceptable that no amount of word magic can manipulate people into seeing anything other than what's happening in front of their face.
Alex Karp is bragging about Palantir's role in Israel and the US's precision military strikes in Iran. On the first day of the war, a US strike killed 120 schoolgirls.
CNN's resident fact-checker Daniel Dale hasn't conducted an on-air fact check of Trump in more than three months, a stretch that coincidentally began around the same time Paramount announced its merger with WBD

🚨 The White House May Have Just Confirmed The Most Important Part Of The Epstein Story Without Meaning To.
New reporting comes out.
The response isn't:
"None of this happened."
The response is:
"Find the leaker."
Think about the logic.
If officials are launching a leak probe, they're looking for people inside the administration who spoke to reporters.
That means they're treating the conversations as real.

I’m a Musk biographer, and IMO—based on research—he’s one of the most dangerous men alive. I urge folks to consider this before aiding in enriching him further. https://t.co/qoWLKMI4rB
Trump inherited at least $413 million from his daddy and still managed to bankrupt multiple casinos. He would have a higher net worth today if he just left his money in the S&P 500. But he sits there in all his unearned mediocre privilege attacking migrants who came from nothing.
NEW: Our visual analysis suggests the United States hit two drinking-water facilities overnight in southern Iran with precision-guided munitions. Deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure could constitute a war crime. w/ @ckoettl@johnismay@ArtemisChats
A 14-year-old boy was killed in a horrific bus accident while protesting against Israel’s forced conscription law. He was struck and dragged to his death.
As expected, Zionists mocked him, some saying he deserved it.
At the boy's funeral, his father said: “I would rather my son die like this than join Israel’s army.”
Better to die like a Jew than to live like a Zionist.
Cecilia Vega was fired by CBS head Bari Weiss in the middle of producing a feature on U.N. Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese—perhaps the most prominent institutional voice against Israel’s genocide of Palestinians. https://t.co/d3N03mHox6
Trying to imagine the response from the British political class if it was another minority faith community who were locked inside their place of worship as bigots threatened them.
But it’s Muslims… so… who cares!
Every time I suggest equality under the law as the right principle for Israel-Palestine, many of my fellow Jews tell me it's dangerously unrealistic, that I don't understand the region etc. It's exactly what I heard from white South Africans as a kid. But I rarely heard a Black South African during apartheid say that legal equality was unrealistic, or would produce more violence, just as I rarely hear that from Palestinians today.
Entire Palestinian communities are disappearing from the map.
This is not an accident.
It’s by design.
New Amnesty research exposes the scale of Israel’s campaign of ethnic cleansing and unlawful annexation in the occupied West Bank.
Our new report details how Israel’s ethnic cleansing campaign is state-led, and state-sponsored, not driven by rogue settlers or so-called extremist ministers.
We’re calling on all states, including the UK, to halt all trade, cooperation and investment relations enabling unlawful occupation, apartheid, ethnic cleansing and impose sanctions on implicated officials

1. The Holocaust was evil, as everyone knows
2. The Holocaust was NOT uniquely evil, as some claim
3. Throughout history there have been other comparable genocides, often carried out by Europeans against indigenous people
4. The genocide in Gaza is not the same as the Holocaust, obviously, but it is in the same moral category
5. The Nazis killed babies, children, women and men BECAUSE they were Jews. The Israelis kill babies, children, women and men BECAUSE they are Palestinian
6. Israel and its supporters weaponise and abuse the memory of the Holocaust, sometimes to close down argument and sometimes even to justify the genocide in Gaza
BREAKING: "Greater Israel" is now marketed in London. Like in Montreal and in New York.
Apartheid without borders.
P.S. This explains why criticism of Israel is being restricted (and "anti-antisemitism" laws keep appearing). Apartheid is not only a crime. It is a business model.
