gay socialist nerd recently relocated to Philly from Brooklyn. Not a nice Jewish boy

[Jack Mirkinson @jackmirkinson]

about halfway through this op-ed the author gives the game away, explicitly saying that she fears a future in which "every Palestinian who wants to move into Israel can do so." Meaning that she wants to maintain Jewish supremacy—ie apartheid—in Israel.

[Adam Johnson @adamjohnsonCHI]

"It's not just a few pro-Israel centrists" then proceeds to list off pro-Israel centrists.

If "Dem leadership" has objections to the Lebanon war powers rez then they can openly come out against it. Instead theyre laundering their "reservations" through anonymous leaks. Curious!

[CJ Werleman @cjwerleman]

🚨 New study shows the New York Times, the Associated Press, the Washington Post, CNN, Politico, USA Today and Axios collectively used the term "savage" 16 times for the killing of Israelis, but never for the killing of Palestinians.

Likewise, "slaughter" appeared 120 times in relation to the killing of Israelis, but only once for Palestinians.

"Massacre" was used 344 times in relation to Palestinians killing Israelis, but never for Israelis killing Palestinians.

"Barbaric" was used 14 times to describe the killing of Israelis, but zero times in relation to the deaths of Palestinians.

The cable coverage displayed a similar pattern.

MSNBC, presenters and guests used
"massacre" 177 times, "barbaric" 46 times, "savage" 23 times and "slaughter" 102 times in relation to Israeli deaths.

They never called the killing of Palestinians "barbaric" or "savage". In relation to Palestinians, they only used “massacre" eight times and "slaughter" four times.

References to "savagery" and "barbarism" echo the logic of settler colonialism, identifying the uncivilised natives as a problem to be solved.

Because they can feign surprise by one and not the other. And they need a J Street-approved scapegoat to signal they vaguely care about pluralism and human rights while they cheerlead on a genocidal military in the middle of a genocide

During the "Israel Parade" in NYC, the Golani Battalion's flag of the Israeli army was raised.

It is the one that slaughtered the 15 paramedics in Rafah & buried them in the most heinous crime in our lifetime, let alone its history.

This is terrorism incitement, not free speech

[Tariq Kenney-Shawa @tksshawa]

Hilarious & revealing how liberal Zionists attempted to paint this parade as an opportunity for people to show support for Israel even if they oppose the current government, only for them to end up marching hand in hand with none other than Smotrich & other far-right terrorists.

[Kylie Cheung @kylietcheung]

No matter how many times politicians say things like this it's impossible to be pro-a group committing genocide & pro-the group subjected to genocide. Anyone could see how illogical this is if it involved any group but Israel--as usual Israel is the exception & they play dumb

[Thomas Portes @Portes_Thomas]

L’HORREUR ABSOLUE.

À Gaza des enfants palestiniens sont déchiquetés par les forces d’occupation israéliennes.

Ne cessez jamais de parler de la Palestine !

💢 Six-year-old girl and a woman killed in Israeli attack on tent in Khan Younis

The United States continues to facilitate Israel’s daily killing of Palestinian civilians, through full military and political support as Israel ignores the Trump-brokered ceasefire.

Minattallah Nabil Abu Libdah, 6, was killed Monday in an Israeli attack on a tent in Khan Younis in southern Gaza. She had reportedly been recovering from a broken arm at the time of her death. Footage shows her father crying uncontrollably at the hospital next to her lifeless body.

A second person, 31-year-old woman Hanan Mahmoud, was also killed in the Israeli attack, according to reporting by Mosab Abu Toha.

[Bruno Maçães @MacaesBruno]

I must confess I am surprised at the reactions against Israel’s treatment of the European protestors. Israel killed tens of thousands of children in Gaza, killed young children with deliberate sniper shots to head, starved babies, shot hundreds of bullets into a 5 year old girl..

[DSA @DemSocialists]

There is a new Democratic Socialist in Congress. DSA congratulates our member Chris Rabb on his election for Pennsylvania’s 3rd Congressional District. This victory would not have been possible without the work of thousands of working class people across Philadelphia organizing for a better world. We will be with Congressman Rabb every step of the way in the fight to abolish ICE, free Palestine and win Medicare for All.

@_MichaelOswell_ It was trying so hard to deliver woke trans representation by 2010s standards that it ironically ended up depicting a more rigid gender binary than what actually existed in ball culture, where everyone is either a trans woman or a cis gay man

[🇵🇸 axxon n of resistance @SpectacOptical]

@_MichaelOswell_ iirc it was so deathly afraid of anyone conflating drag queens with trans women (not an unreasonable concern in itself) that it almost completely erased the existence of drag from ball culture
