Interesting that nyc mayoral candidate @zellnor.bsky.social & Rep @danielsgoldman.dg4ny.co smeared families protesting against illegal Palestinian land sales on X and skipped it on Blue Sky, where the far right wingers they’re appealing to aren’t the audience.

It takes a lot to top “Florida man” stories, but nothing will ever top hasbara abusing Jewish trauma so well that a Jewish man shot at Jews he thought were Palestinians and the Jews he shot at calling it an antisemitic hate crime by Palestinians.

The west owes nations it couped & robbed more than USAID, which has often been used to help whitewash imperialism and put strings on support. Cutting off USAID is detrimental to humanity, makes everyone and the US less safe, and ends up costing more later. Both can be true.

In which an actor calls the most powerful antisemite in the US to ask him to kindly restrict the account of a Black antisemite, exposing the actor's own anti-Black racism.

I remember when we warned Obama, Biden and all their no strings attached supporters that when you maintain something like Guantanamo Bay, its illegal cages will ultimately cage us too. Thanks to Democrats, today we're one step closer, as we witness the horror for asylum seekers.

Remember when proud boys began to emerge and we called them early for using white power signs. Then all the same people told us they weren’t. Then they just began admitting it? That’s the tactic you all. Musk testing the waters.

The "Anti-Defemation" Legaue has been turned into the "Defame so long you are rich and unconditionally pro-Israel." They have fully turned into a one issue organization, and that issue is NOT combating antisemitism and hate. Also, love me a good @bendthearc.bsky.social ratioing ADL today:

The year before Oct 7 was the deadliest year for Palestinian children. We will not accept that as normal. The 75 years of apartheid was the reason why Gaza existed as an open air prison. We will not accept that as normal. Free Palestine.

If they’re trying to train us to not care about Gaza, imagine what they’re trying to train us for.

Where is your family as you roam apps wandering threads and posts shamefully dehumanizing families with out a shred of their realities? As far as I can tell you’re doing so quite sober and with the privilege of full mental stability. Yet you struggle.
