The only thing I can really think of for why Ryan Grim is so desperate for Graham Platner is, I believe, the same reason why there was a massive orgiastic rush of anger about critiquing Joe Rogan when he said one nice thing about Bernie. They want there to be a right-wing-white-male to left pipeline

*young me, developing a strong sense of justice*

This is gonna be great, what an asset, this will never drive me insane

Fucking burn it down

Abolishing ICE is not enough. We need justice for every soul harmed by this evil. Ruben deserved to live. As does every person in the camps right now.

Listened to this at 6 minutes in or so. It’s not directly stated, but it appears the reason that Mamdani has not directed H+H to absorb trans patients is out of fear of the federal government. “It’s part of the game we have to play with the federal government .”

It’s the EXACT logic NYU is using.

It’s not disingenuous to point out that the NYT did not run a single front page story of the Minab bombing. You don’t dispute this claim because it’s true. And the story that you reference on your webpage does not attribute blame to US/Israel and frames it as an allegation by “Iranian state media”

ICE detains reporter Estefany Rodríguez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany Rodríguez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

This is a solid and important thread from someone who understands this area of moderation/policy/law very deeply.

One of the reasons that Chotiner can be Chotiner so effectively is that probably two-thirds of his interviews are actually deep, nuanced conversations with experts, like this one. And that means all the shitheads lie to themselves that THAT'S why they got his call.

Yeah.

happy birthday, everyone

Just a reminder that for some reason no one talks about Christians United For Israel, which is 10x the size of AIPAC

1 Inquiry for New York Times Good afternoon, My name is [REDACTED] and l am a reporter for the New York Times. I am researching how much money the Palestinian diaspora community has sent to support Gazan families since the war in Gaza began. Does your team track this figure? I really appreciate it. With gratitude, [REDACTED]

Palestine Diaspora Movement Hello [REDACTED] We do not collaborate with The New York Times. Your email asks about money sent to Gazan families "since the war in Gaza began." Let us first correct the premise. This is not a war. It is a genocide. Calling it a war is part of the problem. It obscures the reality of a colonized people being massacred by a military machine backed by the United States and defended, sanitized, and rhetorically softened by institutions like yours. The New York Times has spent far too long parroting Zionist propaganda and laundering Israeli state narratives while Palestinians bury their dead. That kind of coverage does not merely misinform. It helps create the political climate in which Palestinian slaughter becomes explainable, defensible, and forgettable. So no, we will not be sharing any figures, internal data, or community information with a paper that has so thoroughly damaged its credibility on Palestine. Quite frankly, we would rather chew jeans than help The New York Times extract from our community while continuing to fail it. Do not contact us again for this purpose, The Palestine Diaspora Movement Team

lmaooo GET EM

imagine even thinking about using ai when a living breathing master of the craft is putting his knowledge on youtube for free

This thread is hilarious. Is USian an insult? It's not, but incidentally it is because just being specific about the factually asshole nation sounds bad.

i've used it a few times to mean "of the national political entity that is the USA", because I think "American" can sometimes be too abstract for my purposes. i really don't give a damn if others are using it, insultingly or not. get a grip, yanks

i'm sorry but what is a Yankee? are other countries subjected to this kind of bullying? has social justice gone too far or does it hate us specifically? and before you ask, no this doesn't bother me at all.

tfw you realise the 'leftist' concerns about the "disappearing middle class" amount to "i am being denied the class mobility we had back in the 1950s" and not in fact "workers of the world, unite"

I deeply resent “working class” being taken by much of our political/media class to mean “mostly racist”.

If you ever find yourself wondering how things like the Epstein story happened, consider the mid-level newspaper editor who admitted in a public judicial inquiry that he destroyed a woman’s life and drove her to suicide to try and impress Piers Morgan.

rough day for anyone who believes in the sanctity of human life

it is exhausting trying to remind people there are human beings and their fucking lives at stake when they clearly haven't thought of anyone outside our borders as anything but NPCs, i am hanging by a fuckin thread

today my coworker said "they're going after Khameini, Maduro, everybody. i just hope they don't mess with China or Russia, that'd be bad for us". when i told him about the Iranian elementary schoolers we blew up all he had to say was "i don't knooow", right after i had to explain what the IDF is 😐

And you know, you can extend from this to a real important corallary to "Everyone is 12 Now" theory is "There has been a generation-long project to keep people 12."

Conservative news and opinon outlets, regressive mass audience entertainment products, etc. all propagandize a chilidish worldview.
