If true, all the Dem politicians, including “progressives”, who claimed that Biden (and Harris) were working “tirelessly” for a ceasefire should never be allowed to forget their complicity, and it should be directly held against them.

A 14-year-old American boy and his two friends were gunned down by Israeli soldiers Sunday night. Their largely American village in the West Bank is wondering why Trump and the U.S. government have said so little about the killing of one of its citizens.

🚨 Mohsen Mahdawi, a Palestinian student at Columbia, was abducted from his final citizenship interview by ICE. My Israeli friends who had family murdered by Hamas on 10-7 are vouching for Mohsen as an ally in fighting antisemitism & peace activism. That’s the opposite of supporting Hamas terror!

If at the next AI workshop on campus I mentioned the most benign detail from this essay on what the techno-fascists' end goal is, the room would look at me like I had two heads. This despite the fact that the techno-fascists have made their goals publicly known repeatedly.

This case was always a Rorschach test—vagueness is key to moral panics. Public figures who filled in the blanks with anti-Palestinian racism failed to meet the moment, and they will likely keep doing so.

As SCOTUS endorses Trump's move to disappear immigrants to El Salvador prisons, the horrid truth is this extremism is not an aberration—but a manifestation of SCOTUS extremism throughout history. Here's a recap of how SCOTUS has always upheld white supremacy: www.qasimrashid.com/p/what-if-am...

"In other words, Democrats have ample political room to fight the latest McCarthyism. Unfortunately, the Bidens and Schumers of the party are too wedded to liberal militarism and unreservedly hawkish Zionism to be anything more than Trump’s pathetic accomplices."

Great thread about apparent demographics of recent anti-Trump/Musk protests. Worth highlighting this piece in particular because failure to recognize the complicity of institutions like the Democratic Party and universities in what is happening now may continue to severely weaken opposition.

A thing press institutions REALLY need to internalize is that 1000x more people will see the headline than read the article. If the headline leaves a false impression, but the article sets it straight, it doesn’t matter. You are spreading misinformation.

The framing from legacy media on the Ms Rachel stuff is insane. Nowhere do they say that these are baseless claims, or that what she said (every child's life is precious and worthy) is not "Hamas propaganda."

Media challenge: try writing headlines without using the word "antisemitism". Stop using Trump's framing for his authoritarian actions. "Trump administration now monitoring immigrant social media" would be shorter and more accurate, since no-one really believes this is about anti-semitism.
