White privilege doesn’t mean white people don’t struggle. It means whiteness itself isn’t the reason you’re struggling, and pretending those are the same thing is exactly how privilege protects itself.
- reads from teleprompter
- immediately starts with October 7th
- still won’t call it a genocide
- says he doesn’t know enough about what’s happening
- makes no apology to Macklemore or addresses dropping him from the tour
- doesn’t mention where his donation will be going to
- doesn’t encourage anyone to donate
- won’t say Israel is the reason Gaza is suffering
- won’t say free Palestine
- only cries when he sees people showed up to the concert because that’s what he cares more about.
Fuck him.
Kanye West did a song titled Heil Hitler and is currently doing a concert tour, which has included multiple dates at Raymond James stadium in Tampa that has banned Macklemore for saying end the genocide & free Palestine
fucking absurd
Again, this is a dog and pony show by Texas Scorecard, Michael Quinn Sullivan, and Sarah Gonzales. Terminal D at DFW already has had foot washing stations and this didn’t become an issue until right before THIS election when Paxton is underwater in almost every poll and has nothing to run on?
Ken Paxton, the Texas AG could sue the federal government to stop this.
Greg Abbott, the Texas Governor, could fight the federal government to stop this.
But neither one is truly willing to fight for the people of Texas.
I know who will: @jamestalarico and @GinaHinojosaTX
ICE AGENTS STOPPED FOR COFFEE. THEIR ILLEGALLY PARKED VEHICLES DISAPPEAR.
Across America, https://t.co/du9bv2U4pY users are finding innovative ways to lawfully and constitutionally resist ICE.
They noticed ICE agents parking like douchebags who think they own the place while grabbing food or coffee. Spotters have teamed up with property owners and tow-truck operators. ICE gets spotted, property owners are alerted, and then the tow-truck drivers move in.
The agents return to find their vehicles gone. So sad. Never mind.
No interference with active operations. No vigilantism. Just ICE facing the same laws and consequences as everyone else.
KEEP PAXIS FREE: https://t.co/Hi5Yo2N2N2
A BADGE IS NOT A PARKING PERMIT.

Anas Al-Sharif helped Reuters win a Pulitzer in 2024. This was their headline when Israel assassinated him a year ago today.
Justifying the murder of journalists.
The United States is carrying out a genocidal starvation campaign in Cuba, but the people who actually went in to help are considered the criminals. Just another reminder of how twisted this government is.
never forget the democratic party had a chance to stop trans persecution here and instead chose to bomb palestinians and hand the government back to trump. this wasn’t a mistake, this is just late stage capitalism. neither of these parties care about you
To be clear, this isn’t a story of Alec Guinness being homophobic. Alec Guinness was bisexual and was arrested for cruising when he was younger. This is a very sad story of how queer people had to hide themselves and assimilate into a deeply homophobic industry.
A data center in Georgia used 30 million gallons of water illegally, and locals only noticed when their water pressure was abnormally low.
The data center claimed it was an honest mistake, but locals were told by the town to conserve water while the data center kept running.
Israel will be prosecuting 2 members of the Gaza Flotilla has 'Hamas terrorists'.
This carries the death penalty.
Their crime? Bringing food to starving children.
Perfect encapsulation of what's wrong with the country that gas companies get unlimited cheap water while normal people are forced to cut back because the whole city is about to run dry.
