The far right's new politicized higher ed accreditor is illegitimate.

Well said! My dad was an English prof who specialized in SF as well as Shakespeare. He understood that the genre, when well done, is incredibly profound and, as you say, wrestles with profound philosophical issues in a way that’s very much ahead of the curve.

So….*not* a regime change war? But definitely a *war*, though, not just “strategic strikes”, right? Jesus, at least get your lies straight.

If that’s about international law being broken, no I’m not. If it’s about the wisdom of being suspicious about the veracity of videos posted on social media, no I’m not. #bye.

"WE HAVE FRIENDS EVERYWHERE" ✨

Minnesota United supporters unveiled an "Andor"-themed tifo ahead of a 1-0 win over FC Cincinnati in the Twin Cities club's home opener. Rebellions are built on hope 🩵

I don’t doubt many/most people hated him. I am suspicious people in Iran are publicly celebrating it. (FWIW, it’s irrelevant to the issue of the legality of US/Israeli actions, which are objectively violations of international law)

Yeah, I suspect this is false/fake.

ICE was very active in Minneapolis today, they kidnapped multiple people. ICE didn't leave, the media has moved on but we are still under federal occupation.

Yet Democratic leadership will do nothing, since they are A) spineless and B) in bed with AIPAC.

Interesting that this point is made by A) using a meme created by others which itself B) appropriates copyrighted material C) without crediting the original creators in any way D) to serve your own personal agenda.

And your answer to this is ….. what, exactly?

Yep, and you’ve promised to fight for us. How has that gone?

You won’t do anything but offer words of feigned outrage because you are complicit.

I assume a GoFundMe has been set up to help pay for your therapy, yes?

Fun fact: the Ayatollah Khomeini came to power in 1979. He’s been dead for decades. The current leader is Ayatollah Khamenei.

Yep. Also the fact that MN stood up to him and earned national attention for it, thereby personally embarrassing him. This is very much internal psychosocial stuff rather than “policy.”
