Gallaudet University: People will be punished for "from the river to the sea" stickers. Phrase can "only be interpreted as antisemitic and is considered hate speech." Student with "Palestine will be free" flag can be "exclusionary" & "deeply hurtful." Removed SJP Instagram via trademark complaint.

Didn't take long for the shooting to lead to incitement. We'll see if he will take responsibility the next time a Palestinian or Muslim in America is killed thanks to his rhetoric. Not to mention his constant encouraging of state violence against activists.

Rabbi Dovid Asher to NBC 12 vs. Rabbi Dovid Asher in the replies of calls to not violate international law.

clearly it's because of the climate created by campus protests and not all the unapologetic genociding going on

just so yall know, this shit sucks

Manifesting my next dream: - We keep Ange. - We sign Eze. - We announce signing Eze with a photo of him playing chess, along with the caption “Mate”

Dox your local ice agents.

this is how you do it.

This Tottenham squad will go down as legends. They have accomplished what Gareth Bale, Harry Kane and Luka Modric could not. Son Heung-min might now eclipse Kane as the best player in Spurs’ modern history. Kane left to win a trophy, Son stayed to prove the doubters wrong. 🔗 bit.ly/4dsecfv

What many USians INCLUDING progressives simply refuse to take in is that the U.S. criminal punishment system is OPPRESSIVE and not actually "broken."

Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.

Ms. Rachel had the same arc as Ta Nehisi Coates where learning the basic facts of the situation made her go “this is unambiguously wrong” and it freaks out the credentialists who think serious people are supposed to say it’s complicated

"I'd crusade if the new Pope asked me to" wow, cool. What if he asked you to love and protect immigrants

Here we are stopping a runaway burning car. All in a days work for your friends at the #WorldBollardAssociation

This is so fucking good

Sholem aleykhem kvarerim! Der Spekter is back with two pieces focused on Bundist organizing to help build vital socialist Jewish organizations and community. First, is a contribution from @capnmax.bsky.social about how the DMV Bund orients its work around the Bund's three pillars.

The only commentator I’ve seen speak up so far, and she herself was silently shitehoused out the door for non-approved speech. A very clarifying incident here for establishing the hard limits of British liberalism.

welcome to the age of Weird Terrorism

Psst. Did you know that cities could just paint extra sidewalk space? 👀

Here's nine different reports from nine different reputable outlets detailing why Gazans need cash. So please stop assuming they're scammers because of it. Thanks.

Help, I can't stop listening to Big Iron by Marty Robbins.

“Shortly before the invasion commenced on Saturday, the Israeli army dropped leaflets over Gaza, depicting a Biblical scene of the sea parting and engulfing destroyed buildings in the Strip, with a Star of David insignia in the corner below the words “righteous conquest.””

80 percent civilians. Genocide in Gaza.

🚨BREAKING | At least 10 Palestinians killed, mostly children, and others injured in Israeli shelling of the Nasr family in Jabalia, northern Gaza,the Civil Defense reports. Israeli attacks have killed at least 69 Palestinians overnight—including 36 in the so-called “safe zone” of al-Mawasi.

all love and respect to Logan Rozos, a Black trans artist, revolutionary voice and truth-teller who used NYU’s platform to indict genocide.

I wrote something about Jewish local organizing for @derspekter.bsky.social. I think you should read it. Thank you so much for giving me the space to talk about something that is becoming increasingly important in my life. www.derspekter.org/how-the-pill...

"The number of employed Black women dropped from 10.325 million in March to 10.219 million in April. Their unemployment rate jumped from 5.1% to 6.1%, the largest month-to-month increase among all racial and gender groups." www.washingtoninformer.com/black-women-...

These buildings cannot be built. By any means necessary.

I’m so jealous because WHAT A MOMENT

Palestinians are being massacred in Gaza day after day after day and yet I still here some people telling me how happy they are that Trump has had a falling out with Netanyahu. Who cares?! Netanyahu is still killing kids with Trump’s blessing. That’s all that matters.

FINALLY!!!!

People in Gaza are posting final messages.

The New York Times really asked Ms. Rachel if she’s paid by Hamas: defector.com/the-new-york...
