As someone who spends a lot time thinking about the values I want to teach my kid (besides PLEASE DON’T EAT DIRT), the thing I keep coming back to is this: I want him to believe that the strongest, bravest thing he can do is give a shit about other people—especially ones who aren’t like him at all.

"where are the protests?" - said sneeringly by the people who consistently bash protesters. Like clockwork.

See the connection? #TaxTheRich #NoMoreTaxCuts

Always remember

The threat of ICE has tons of people on high alert, the result is claims of ICE seen without firm or specific info people can actually use — & sometimes, no ICE at all. It’s never “ICE spotted in Queens,” but “4 SUVs labeled DHS seen parked on 57th & 59th in Maspeth at 2:34pm.” Be specific!

I hope this man never so much as goes to the grocery store without someone yelling- Why aren’t you in The Hague? at him

www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c... 1/ Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act This bill imposes sanctions against foreign persons (individuals and entities) who assist the International Criminal Court (ICC) in investigating, arresting, detaining, or prosecuting certain individuals.

I spent most of my adult life watching schools say they can't expel professors for sexually assaulting and harassing students and colleagues only to see how quickly they react over social media posts against genocide

It’s genocide. It’s not even an argument. Israel will wear this stain for generations to come. It will never rub off. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

NY Times watched Donald Trump lie about the New Orleans attack, then watched him demonize immigrants & Muslims. And rather than correct the record—NYT whitewashed Trump's lies and then piled on their anti-Muslim bigotry. Corporate media is failing us. My latest: www.qasimrashid.com/p/magas-expl...

As 2025 begins, a reminder to rebut the vile lie that this began on 7Oct2023. Israel has been attacking and occupying Palestine for DECADES. 😔 #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide #FreePalestine

"Total Moral, Ethical Failure": Holocaust Scholar Omer Bartov on Israel's Genocide in Gaza

I remember Oct 2023 when the bombing of Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital was considered so outrageous that the words 'hospital blood libel' were used. When hospital sieges & attacks, & the slaughter of healthcare workers are so normalized, this is what we see. Why is the Canadian medical community silent?

entire party built around oppositional defiant disorder

I'm not going to post personal insults, but there are journalists I once admired whose rpted promotion of Israeli propaganda and downplaying of an actual genocide leaves me horrified. It is both a betrayal of humanity and journalistic ethics. 😔 #IsraeliWarCrimes #GazaGenocide #JournalismMatters

A moment from this morning’s walk. 🌲

The director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, one of Gaza’s last partially functioning hospitals, pleads for help before it’s ‘too late’ as Israeli forces have surrounded the medical facility. 🔗: aje.io/rmw08m

Just Philippine things

Israel is a rogue terrorist state guilty of genocide, apartheid and ethnic cleansing. #ArmsEmbargoNow #TerroristIsrael

I worked in the corporate world for 40 years. The only way you get to the top is by being a ruthless backstabbing narcissist. Even if you start out a basically good person the system will warp you into a sociopath if you play in it long enough. I saw it happen over and over again.
