There's only one entity standing in the way of peace, and it starts with "I" and ends with "srael."

@Cancelcloco The watermelon was a symbol of Palestinian resistance long before Oct7, not because of TT censorship.

[Don’t Boo…Revolt! @BreeNewsome]

Again—Hamas offered a ceasefire in Oct based on a hostage exchange. Biden & Netanyahu rejected it.

They said no ceasefire was possible or allowable. They’d instead focus on eliminating Hamas, quickly.

They then murdered thousands of civilians & many of the hostages.

If I must die, let it be a tale.

Only 60 Hamas leaders killed as the Palestinian death toll crosses 10k, nearing 11k.

That’s a 99.5% civilian casualty rate.

[Jonathan Conricus @jconricus]

Refreshing questions actually pertaining to the fighting and situation on the ground. We're making solid progress according to plan, and we intend to keep at it until we dismantle Hamas and return the hostages. With @ljayes on @SkyNews

Councilmember @EunissesH's dedication to our communities has inspired me and set the gold standard for servant leadership.

I’m so honored to have earned her endorsement. I can't wait to work with her at City Hall to disrupt the status quo and deliver real change for LA. ✊🏽

"Competition, Business and the Infinite Mindset"

My conversation with @simonsinek is out!!! It's deeply on point.

Here's a teaser clip, full episode linked in tweet below.

[Ysabel Jurado @YsabelJuradoLA]

We can't keep electing the same career politicians and expecting different results.

For years, the people we pay to represent us have sided with luxury real estate developers over working families.

It's time for one of us. That's why I'm running for LA City Council District 14.

My latest video starring @Liv_Boeree was just released, and asks very astutely “Why is everyone so ANGRY?”

It took a non-zero amount of work so check it out!

Why is everyone so ANGRY?

- my new short film is out now 👇

It explores the deadly game theoretic forces (Moloch) that have infected our entire media industry.

Forces that if left unchecked will destroy our ability to make sense of reality:

RIGHT NOW:

Disgraced Los Angeles City Councilmember Kevin De Leon JUST assaulted local organizer Jason Reedy.

@kdeleon is out here assaulting people AGAIN. He was caught on those racist anti-Black leaked tapes and now he’s assaulting Black folks. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

@teacupbun if you want to effectively protest ai art you can feed the ai a bunch of junk data like this. garbage goes in garbage comes out

[Jon Lam #CreateDontScrape @JonLamArt]

Before I go to bed, I wanted to say this. I love the art community deeply. When AI artists steal/co-opt art from us I don’t just see art, I see people, mentors and friends. I don’t expect you to understand.

Thread time. Here's the thing about @tesla. It's not a car company. Tesla is a company that has to make cars in order to sell its real product: Emissions Credits.

Let me explain. Back in 2012, the EPA put out new, strident emissions standards for new vehicles fleetwide. 1/

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

So here are the two charts you need to win any argument over whether gun laws matter.

1. America, with more guns than any other high income nation, is a wild outlier of gun violence.

2. States with stronger gun laws have much less gun crime.

Elon Musk has embedded himself in the right-wing ecosystem. Here’s a thread of him getting cozy in the mentions of fascists, all from just the past week. 🧵

[Don’t Boo…Revolt! @BreeNewsome]

This behavior is not the marker of genius, it’s the marker of an abusive personality that happened to be born into privilege & wealth, who can therefore exercise their sadism over many people.

(This statement applies to many people)

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

In a weird way, I think that the destruction of this platform by an arrogant billionaire with no understanding of how humans interact with one another sort of brought us all closer together again.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

Twitter has been instrumental in A LOT of liberation movements worldwide. It makes sense that it might be in the world’s richest man’s financial interest to destroy it. Just saying.
