“‘when history has placed before us the enormous task of cutting the knot of world reaction… social democrats do not seem to care for anything except a petty internal struggle.’ What a 'heartrending tragedy' this was '... nobody could free himself from the iron grip of history’”

STEBAN, THE STUDENT COMMUNIST - “In dark times, should the stars also go out?”

in the US conservative mindset cishet conservative white men are top of the hierarchy and thus it is bad to shoot them, but also they are allowed to shoot people, so if one kills another it's just a wash. cancels out. thoughts and prayers, nothing to see here

American media is so intensely hateful, bigoted and poisoned it's almost breathtaking.

I am becoming radicalized against White America, as a media and discursive force. Everything in the media works for a certain class of stupid, cultureless, violent suburban white American

some of y’all have internalized misandry against edgy YA authors who look like they were dredged out of a lakebed and it shows 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Yeah so throwing dildos at women athletes on the court is an actual example of gender-based violence against women in sports—one that transphobes and acquiescent Dems will surely make 1000% less noise about

Funniest clip here imo

For the 1st time in my lifetime, a majority of Senate Dems have voted against sending weapons to that genocidal rogue regime massacring Palestinian children & terrorizing the region. In a better world, this would be a unanimous vote held at least 21 months earlier. We can’t rest until it’s done!

One of the most dangerous tropes in political media is how the only Jewish voices that matter are the most right-wing ones, hence the ease with which reporters assumed Jews are scared of Mamdani. (This is also how Jewish protestors were erased from the discourse about antisemitism on campuses.)

Another day, another reminder that Democratic leaders chose to forfeit the Presidency rather than desisting from genocide.

i'm relieved to see some american leaders finally seeing reality but saying starvation is a bridge too far while drone striking schools and hospitals was not is just crazy

Sure, people got smeared, beaten by cops, expelled, fired, and deported, but the important thing to remember is that I, Matthew Yglesias, was actually correct the whole time

It is pretty noticeable that even as mainstream opinion on Israel and Gaza finally shifts, you don’t hear the Responsible Adults apologizing for punishing all the college kids protesting the atrocities. Quite the opposite in fact!

is this the "single issue purity test" that i keep hearing about

journalists, university administrators, media companies, arms manufacturers, Hollywood, theaters, museums, academic conferences, medical associations, nonprofits, city councils, the New York Times, the Atlantic, Trump, Harris, Blinken, Biden, the AMA, Northwestern, Harvard, Jeffries, Johnson

I hate this ahistorical American bullshit that a Hollywood victory can be achieved at the last second. Bullshit! Tens or hundreds of thousands have been killed. Millions made homeless. Famine. Genocide. Careers ended. Homes destroyed. All of this was manufactured by politicians,

The uh Wall Street Journal I guess?

Rough few days for conservatives on computer who made the Epstein stuff their whole personality

i’m not saying it’s fake but donald trump drawing anything goes against everything i know about him and donald trump saying “i never wrote a picture” is exactly how i’d imagine he’d respond to the accusation he drew anything

“There is no way I will be voting for him a 6th time” —liberal proverb

This is exactly the problem, though. Why is 99% of discourse about this topic a "debate" about whether the people protesting *an extremely well-documented ongoing mass murder* really mean it? There is no reason to think people are "putting on a show" of opposition. They're opposed!

This is controversial for her career but the extent of the controversy, the extent of the provocation to anyone, is showing children being bombed as kids who deserve to live instead of faceless statistics, and if someone argues against that? Idk maybe that viewpoint should be the controversial one

my least favorite part of this policy is the caveats about whether or not you had to do it that changed literally every day and they would always get mad at you for not knowing. calvinball security theater

Kaitlin Olson’s Dee is aging so gracefully into a belligerent Philly white lady in her 40s

I have to say I do not love the idea of throwing $40 billion at an agency that's clearly making it up as it goes along and staffed entirely by law enforcement flotsam that couldn't get hired as prison guards. I bet a lot of people wouldn't, but I understand there's a new mayoral nominee to denounce.

there’s something infuriatingly familiar about how the (Christian) Colbert assumes authority to speak for “the Jews” while the actual Jew on stage is denied any representative significance to his own group because he refuses to participate in Islamophobia

really sums up the media’s coverage of the Trump presidency

Hamas: We agree to a ceasefire on whatever terms you propose The US and Israel: No you don't

Notre Dame and Clemson had four common opponents this year (and ND vs Georgia in the CFP makes five). Indiana and Penn State had five common opponents. Conferences are just scheduling arrangements between independents.

Nineteen months in and they're still letting the IDF write their copy:

“Popular front” brother that is just the democratic party. A Popular Front constitutively includes non-liberals

(Me, a genius) I see no through line with how George W Bush, who legalized torture through illegal means and illegally invaded a country and killed millions of people, is connected to the current moment

Why would you post this on bluesky. Like best case how does this go in your head

I hereby formally accuse Donald Trump of committing genocide. Hope this accomplished whatever you thought it should.

I listened to a chapo clip today and it was just like 3 guys making fun of conservatives for freaking out about the snow white movie

He never sleeps, the judge

"No Other Land," the Palestinian-Israeli made film showing the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers, just won the Oscar for Best Documentary. It can't get a distributor in the US. Which tells you everything about censorship in the US.

I don’t know if you guys are into the Marxism fandom at all but if you look into it a bit you’d understand why this could never happen

They published this in the newspaper

Thanks for this. The full quote in context:
