I've noticed the tendency of many outlets to say that Israel using starvation as a weapon of war is 'opposed' or 'criticized' by 'rights groups'. That's quite mild given the severity of the crime here. It's not just 'rights groups'. It's at the very foundation of everything. 🧵

really deadening to see so many people hoping for rack and ruin so that somebody learns a lesson. you can criticize it on practical grounds—when has economic collapse *stopped* fascists from consolidating power?—but much worse it just shows how little we care for each other

This is how it feels watching Economists and Pundits finally start using the word 'Recession'

we could've turned so much around if obama had dared to execute even 1 bush administration torture-planning official

SCOTUS rules that they cannot order someone’s release from a foreign prison but they can order the government make every effort. Trump then engages in half-assed fake negotiations, which fail. lawlessness, constitutional collapse continue without crossing the arbitrary red line of ignoring SCOTUS

Always and everywhere, ideological diversity means being obligated to make way for people from the center and right. There are anarchists here. There are Blue No Matter Who Dems. There are whole worlds of disagreement between. People have vicious fights on here every day. Doesn't matter.

this one is better

I forgot to mention. Jim Jeffries was talking about comparing Trump to Hitler and then in a room full of mostly Republicans said “if he got rid of income tax I’d help load people onto the trains myself”

Anyone who's ever fenced for even five seconds should have known how much of a grift this was immediately.

Great news everyone it's perfectly lawful to pretend to be ICE to trick COs into releasing a jailed individual into your custody brb buying a new tactical vest for completely lawful reasons apnews.com/article/nort...
