Linda Mamoun @mamoun_linda PBS asks Arab Barghouti, son of imprisoned Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti, why his father is referred to as the Palestinian Nelson Mandela. “I think this is very interesting because Nelson Mandela was called a terrorist, and my father as well. And if you go back to any struggle — in Algeria, in Ireland, in South Africa, in all the countries that were colonized and occupied you will find that their resistance, and their defending themselves against the occupier, is always called terrorism.”
“90% of the civilians killed in the last eight decades of this so-called conflict were on the Palestinian side, and not the Israeli side. And who killed them? The Israelis. And they’re never called terrorists.”
— Arab Barghouti, son of Marwan Barghouti
aaaaaaaand it turns out the answer to "how TF did some guys with a ladder steal the French crown jewels" is "cuts to arts funding mean the Louvre is massively understaffed"
One of the great medical and industrial scandals of our time. For those interested, you can read more in Tom's book-length exposé, Bad Dust: A History of the Asbestos Disaster.
One of the greatest industrial and medical scandals in recent history. Decades after being "banned", researchers believe asbestos still kills 20,000 people in the UK annually. (The global figure is at least 200,000).
Last month we published Tom's book-length exposé: Bad Dust

We got any theories why Grok is consistently mistaking Barron Trump for Sam Bankman-Fried?

Don't do neoliberalism.
Elon Musk is a white nationalist. Anyone who needs more data points to reach this conclusion is beyond help or persuasion.
If you buy, rent, service, or supercharge a Tesla you are supporting the most powerful white nationalist on earth. Period.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.
Once again, lots of appreciation to the sports posting people who have made this place an acceptable location for both baseball and college football as opposed to posting about sports and being asked why you didn’t bring up every single one of the worlds atrocities in your post instead
It was inevitable that, without needed change and reform, the War on Terror would swing back to America
It’s the march of capitalism and its reliance on hidden and then overt authoritarianism. We can see where this is going by looking at what we did to others, and so we must band together with them
Six out of eight of the largest mass-movement protests in US history have happened since 2017. You wouldn't know this from most media reporting, and you sure af wouldn't know this from the way either major party has reacted.

Bray is a historian at Rutgers who received death threats after landing on Turning Points USA's Professor Watchlist. As a result, he announced he was moving to Europe. And then this happened.
This kind of harassment and abuse of scholars is Charlie Kirk's legacy and it's only getting worse.
As a deaf person, seeing Curtis Yarvin aggressively pushing for cunnilingus scares me.
actually our AI programs are like people so its racist to say you don't like them. anyway would you like to buy one
Holocaust denial isn't an organic belief; it's a facade supported and disseminated by a small number of institutions who will fund the career of any "historian" willing to lie for money.
We see the same model in climate denial.
And we see the same model in corporate media coverage of fascism.
This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate. We must now start calling this what it is: Trump's Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state's military troops. I call on Governor Abbott to immediately withdraw any support for this decision and refuse to coordinate. There is no reason a President should send military troops into a sovereign state without their knowledge, consent, or cooperation. The brave men and women who serve in our national guards must not be used as political props. This is a moment where every American must speak up and help stop this madness.
Statement from Illinois Governor JB Pritzker
A huge group of people are in a giant hole in the middle of a rolling field. There is a large sign with an arrow pointing to the hole that says "HOLE." Suddenly the group's attention turns to a new hole, complete with a giant sign with an arrow pointing to it that says "NEW HOLE." One person points to the new hole and says "hey look! Someone made a new hole!" The mass clamours out of the old hole and makes a bee-line toward the new hole. It's chaos. One person, now situated in the new hole says "this feels like how the old hole used to feel." Another person nods in agreement.
