Liberalism offers no solutions, just magical thinking, constant excuses for why better things aren't possible, and a smug sense of self-satisfaction as things keep going to hell. Communism and anti-imperialism offer hope for a better world.

The people who spent 2016 and 2020 lying about Bernie Sanders to build their media careers and campaign consultancies are all just as responsible for this genocide as any other Democrats, if not even moreso.

You have to understand that settlers killed an 18-month-old boy in an arson attack, mocked the grandfather outside the courthouse, and held up the kid’s picture at a wedding and celebrated by stabbing & burning it. That’s the kind of hate a lot of settlers have for Palestinians.

They shouted this at his grandfather. They printed out a picture of the baby they murdered and danced with it at a wedding. That’s Israeli settler culture. When I first learned about this I wasn’t right for days. There’s an Al Jazeera film about it: m.youtube.com/watch?v=GqSfrl…

Another thing about him is if you go to his Twitter account, a couple months ago he was talking about his porn addiction being so bad he was thinking about taking his own life.

Important to read these nonstop “further conversations” as mob threats. Mamdani has spoken w/ Jeffries many times & explained his position on everything. Until Mamdani does to the Gaza protest movement what Obama did to Jeremiah Wright, Dem leadership will continue to not endorse

Idk at the moment how i feel about this, but to those who are like "there are already books on this," i submit to you that if you want to confront a large audience of americans with the horrors of imperial violence, you probably should not bet on them reading a book about it

So much this. I'm so tired of people acting like anyone is defending delivery apps' business practices or arguing against alternatives. It reads to me as intentional ignorance at this point

If you dine in at restaurants you actually don't have the moral high ground to say that ppl using delivery apps - for whatever reason - just want "treat servants"

At this point I'm not really interested in engaging much with disability "discourses". The other side is being almost entirely driven by attention-seeking shitposters and crypto-fascists, and the rest of the Twitter "left" isn't hearing it

We gave a close read to the new 80-page Israeli report on 10/7 sexual violence. What we found is that rather than present new evidence, it spends most of its time arguing that the current evidentiary standards are actually too rigorous. Incredible turn to take. Some excerpts:

oh no, not hatred against germany in the form of "germany starves children in gaza" messages. i'm sure this, too, is antisemitism somehow now.

As long as I live, I will never forget the videos of Israelis destroying food in aid trucks to prevent it being delivered. I will never forget Keir Starmer saying Israel had the right to cut off water. I will never forget who they criminalised while we all watched their genocide.

.@AOC’s Bronx HQ was redecorated with red paint tonite by a group called the Boogie Down Liberation Front. The group denounced AOC’s vote to fund Israel & the genocide in Gaza & also called out how politicians (like AOC & Ritchie Torres) use the Bronx to further their careers.

Read every post in this thread closely. Genocide has been a money maker, especially for our "allies" who can't uplift a fundraiser for any Gaza-based organization or family but have money for Jamal Bowman. Aren't diaspora Palestinians ashamed? You are allowing them to do this.

How come no one is calling for “democracy” in Syria anymore?

“Thank you Joe Biden for your leadership”——AOC (Aug/2024) on Joe Biden who supports Nazis in Ukraine as well as being the indispensable sponsor of the Holocaust in Gaza. AOC has always made clear that she is Zionist trash

And the only reason they did that was to save the colonies for the west, and to scoop up the fragments of the Nazi project before the red army could smash it all

Disabled people make up the minority of food delivery customers, and yet the onus is almost always put on them to solve this issue. Really seems like people just want an excuse to be ableist.

a lot of white people are doomers. they don't believe this world is worth saving even though they're the ones actively destroying it. religious people operate in the same system believing their "real" life begins in the death.
