What makes Bernie so potent is that he holds back the grand revolutionary impulse and instead breaks things down into simple, digestible arguments anyone can understand. I disagree with him on many issues but he’s out there actually doing things while we sit here debating niche theories online.

Kinda sounds like the Meidner plan to me 😏

They're just going full Islamophobe at this point. Not even trying to pretend it's anything else.

Speaking from the outside, I've heard about that for a while, and I believe it. Most of the Jewish people I know come from NY. Maybe Israel is around where Judiasm started, but it feels like NY is the modern epicenter of Jewish culture and perspective. But that's just my outsider vibe of it.

Every day, every single day, I get dozens of people telling me I'm a self hating Jew because I think genocide is wrong. But I have never been a "my country, right or wrong" type, and that means my people too. And I don't hate being Jewish, but I hate what Judaism is being perverted to represent.

An Israeli official told Kan public broadcaster that UNRWA “will not step foot in Gaza again,” despite a ruling from the International Court of Justice ordering Israel to cooperate with the UN agency. According to the report, the official claimed that every UN body previously active in Gaza...

Israels Blockade der Hilfslieferungen hat katastrophale Folgen: Sie trägt zu Bedingungen bei, die auf die physische Zerstörung der palästinensischen Bevölkerung in #Gaza abzielen – durch Hunger, Krankheiten und wiederholte Massenvertreibungen. Das ist Völkermord. 4/5

»Es ist gut dokumentiert, dass ein großer Teil dieser ›ruandischen‹ Rohstoffgewinnung nichts anderes ist als systematischer Diebstahl von Mineralien und anderen Rohstoffen aus der Demokratischen Republik Kongo«, schreibt Andy Storey.

This really is the stupidest timeline if Peter Thiel has got folks convinced progressives are the real Nazis... Congrats folks, you're getting played.

In the run up to the founding conference of Your Party, several groupings and campaigns have developed and emerged. At The World Transformed, seven of these groupings came together to present a minimum unity declaration.

“The idea that a Jewish person by default of being Jewish, should in any way have anything to do with what's going on in Israel … is deeply, deeply problematic.” UK's Green Party Leader Zack Polanski on the conflation between being Jewish and being a Zionist: zeteo.com/p/it-makes-m...

Nvidia invests in OpenAI, OpenAI rents compute from Oracle, Oracle buys Nvidia’s hardware, and Nvidia records huge sales. Everyone in the circle reports rising revenue, rising valuations, and surging share prices, but the cash is largely moving in circles. graceblakeley.substack.com/p/the-ai-cir...

Was der @frauenrat.bsky.social sagt, hören wir auch in Gesprächen mit Schüler*innen. Die Schulsozialarbeit kennt bundesweit zu viele Fälle häuslicher Gewalt. An Berufsschulen berichten Schülerinnen von sexueller Belästigung und Machtmissbrauch am Arbeitsplatz. Problem heißt: patriarchales Denken.

Deutschland, Kaltland! Man feiert Trump für die Waffenruhe in Gaza, aber erlaubt es immer noch nicht, dass kranke Kinder in Deutschland behandelt werden, obwohl sich zahlreiche Städte dazu bereit fanden. An Menschenverachtung nicht mehr zu überbieten. www.spiegel.de/panorama/deu...

don’t know what to make of it. It just felt like a childish rant. Politically very unproductive. Generalizing an entire society like this is kind of cringe. There are real problems, let’s talk about them and try to find solutions instead of just blowing off steam.

Hannover will verletzte Kinder aus Gaza und Israel aufnehmen. Doch das Bundesinnenministerium bevorzugt einen anderen Weg - und lehnt ab. Hannovers Oberbürgermeister Belit Onay äußert sich deutlich.

Ich fasse es nicht, der eine, der mit rassistischen Vorstellungen seiner Tochter Politik macht, wir gefragt, ob er den anderen, der mit rassistischen Vorstellungen und seinen Töchtern Politik macht, rassistisch findet. Surprise, surprise, findet er nicht.et. Surprise, surprise, findet er nicht.

Nida' Ibrahim reports on violent Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank attacking Palestinians and destroying their property. The report starts with footage from American journalist Jasper Nathaniel showing one Israeli settler brutally beating a Palestinian women unconscious.

“What lies at the heart of all of these justifications is the dehumanization of Palestinians. The soldiers who slaughtered 300 people to kill a single Hamas operative told me they probably would not have done so if one Jewish child had been in the building.”

I tend to think the "No Kings" protest is a step forward for Resistance Libs - a sign normies belatedly see the crisis. The danger is many still think once Trump is gone, everyone gets to go back to brunch rather than force Dems to deliver, which will only restart the cycle that brought us Trump.

We live in an age of populism, on the Right and on the Left. In an interview with Jacobin, Vivek Chibber explains both populism’s potential and limitations for putting class and economics back into politics.

Trans rights and opposition to genocide are not purity tests. The end.

I think they go mask off because they are spending even more energy getting angry at pro-Palestine folks due to the absence of right wing freaks on this platform.

Phillipson: "Its unacceptable that if fans are unable to attend a match because they're Jewish that runs completely counter to everything we stand for" Maccabi fans are banned because they're violent racist hooligans. Why are you conflating violent racist hooligans with Jews?

The era of state capitalism is here, says @IliasAlami, the question now is how it's going to develop. 👇

Reminder that the US under both R and D administrations sent billions of dollars in weapons to Saudi Arabia, including illegal cluster munitions, to kill Yemeni kids. And the US, under both R and D administrations, is still sending billions of dollars in weapons for the UAE to do genocide in Sudan

“This feat was achieved largely through the help of the high school teacher who recognized his relative in the image and sent photos to use for comparison.” Genuinely maddening this article is giving so much stolen valour to ‘ai’ and not the relatives, volunteers, actual historians, and records!

maybe not to people like you who are so invested in denying the genocide but to people with a conscious these things are inseparably linked.
