Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Don't print lies in the newspaper. We're at a point where the outlets that repeat Trump's lies for him can only be doing it because they want to lie for him and help him.

I believe nonviolent protest is critically important and in fact the single most effective driver of change (that doesn’t come with an indefensible body count) I also believe the time to lecture protesters on protest tactics during a fascist incursion is after you got arrested with them

The BBC's cowardice and conformism on #Gaza, while particularly extreme in this case, is now standard across most issues. As the organisation faces ever greater threats from the right, it becomes ever more determined to alienate those who might have defended it. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I actually want to say this really loudly because I am not seeing other non-Jews say it enough. The Israeli diplomat shooting was an antisemitic hate crime. Yes, most allegations of antisemitism within the anti-genocide movement are bullshit. THIS was antisemitism parading as anti-genocide.

Nick Robinson's supercilious, sneering interview style is just so unenlightening if you actually want to know anything about the issues being explored. Too much twirling in front of the mirror, too little looking through the magnifying glass.

One of the much bigger reasons that US is so fuck*d today is because so many people keep looking for shades of gray when masked goons are kidnapping people on the street based on authoritarian nationalist myths of purity through cleansing violence and sending them to offshore slave camps.

Broken Record: You cannot sustain a functioning constitutional order if the general population is blasé about open violation of the Constitution. If voters don't care, your job is to make them care. This is not optional. If you don't, you lose even if you pick up seats in the next election.
