Are US farmers OK with this?

#BREAKING | Israel has just assassinated journalist Yahya Rizq in an Israeli drone airstrike that targeted him in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza Strip.

Liberals want to return to precursor fascism.

Public radio emphasizing their funding being cut... "We shilled for the Iraq War, US foreign policy (generally), capitalists, Israel, cops, & the genocide and we still got our funding cut."

If you value truth, never let a rich person own more than one media outlet.

If you aren't willing to fight capitalists, you can't fix problems caused by capitalism by tinkering with public policy.

The capitalist media frames matters as the oppressed (Palestinians) need to makes concessions to get the oppressors (Israelis & the West) to recognize the humanity of the oppressed.

Is calling for the overthrow of the US Government illegal?

So to sum up. 1. No fatties 2. We would rather have bases underwater than admit that global warming is real 3. The American people (at least those who live in cities) are the enemy. 4. War crimes for everyone

Know what else causes cognitive issues & disabilities? COVID infections. We’ve known this since the beginning but it was shushed up in the rush back to “normal.” This study went from ‘13 to ‘23 so clearly other factors are also at work. But to not also acknowledge COVID’s role is pure foolishness.

The people who were decrying political violence after [redacted] whacked Charlie Kirk are going to be using their time at the capitalist media microphone to criticize Trump calling for political violence. Right?

There is a bottomless pit of money to shill for capitalists. Eventually, the cynicism of discussing politics this way causes people to not believe stuff that's actually true. See how the public responded to public health recommendations during covid.

The US Constitution is one backstop to the President engaging in overreach. The Posse Comitatus Act is another. And Congress, the courts, state government, the Democratic Party & the US military seem to be "not that invested" in enforcing these rules that define the republic.

The DOGE narrative around efficiency is further debunked if whistleblowers are official targets of the Trump administration.

"But if we criticize Trump, he'll cut money to Vermont."--Vermont Rep Kate Lalley (D-Chittenden-6)

Remember when CTA was constantly like "Dorval Carter has nothing to do with why service is so terrible!" and then Dorval Carter retired and service stopped being so terrible basically immediately.

What books would you say radicalized you?

There should be a critique of the US military officer corps. 1. They suck at military stuff around war fighting. 2. Morally, they are pliant cowards. 3. Weak on US Constitution. 4. They are a feeder program for war profiteering.

Just to clarify: 1. Fascists are not smart 2. Fascists do not have to be smart to do harm via fascism 3. Fascism works in part through aesthetics 4. The administration is being run by fascists who are doing fascism 5. Their unpopularity/fuck ups should not lead us to think 2-4 are not true

Racist media gonna racist. abc7chicago.com/post/chicago...

A Doctor yesterday, a Nurse today. Israel is shooting Doctors and Nurses while they work in hospitals. And our Media is completely ignoring it.

In the last two weeks these feds have choked & beaten protesters, broken bones, given people concussions from munitions, pointed their sidearms at people, tear gassed a neighborhood, shot reporters in the face, destroyed neighbors' property, threatened elected officials No National Guard necessary

US media (and by extension mainstream journalism) is an active PR apparatus for a) capitalism, b) racism, c) cops, d) the military, and e) surveillance.

A Ukrainian Magura V5 unmanned boat was caught up in fishing nets off the Turkish coast. So far for some odd reason there's been no protest to Kyiv from NATO.

Reminder that Reddit co-founder Aaron Swartz committed suicide due to the legal pressure he faced ($1 million in fines, 35 years in prison) after illegally accessing academic journals. Meanwhile, these AI companies have built billion dollar businesses off the back of stolen content.

the takeover of tiktok by a man who has deep ties to the zionist entity is a testament to how seriously our ruling class takes the battle of ideas. they can't control a population that's educated and informed—this is why they buy news outlets, defund education, and yes, it's why they seized tiktok

The US Constitution doesn't protect Israel critics because Israel is a white supremacist project.

Video content has produced a huckster culture that wants you to "wait until the end".

Equal Protection issue?

Disapproving valid VA claims is a bigger problem than approving invalid claims in my experience. www.militarytimes.com/news/your-mi...

Israel wants to be rewarded with land for killing Palestinians.

Hello, my brothers. Certainly, the whole world has heard about Trump’s plan to end the war in Gaza. But what the world does not know is that Trump’s plan will seize my land and turn it into a safe zone for the benefit of Israel. This is a great injustice. Publish and donate. bit.ly/help-mohamed

Gallagher is just a skin-crawlingly evil guy and is only thought of as otherwise by anyone because of decades of normalization of “it’s not murder if they’re Arabs”

The path to the greater evil goes through the lesser evil.

We need a bigger tent, that’s why we must betray and expel the following types of people:

Vermont has a huge amount of nonprofit infrastructure that pushes the "build housing" narrative that is roughly aligned with Ezra Klein abundance ideology.

There's a guy at this housing presentation who looks like...

Kamala Harris has repeatedly revealed she lacks the qualities necessary to stand-up to the Democratic Party establishment.

Trump's desire to repeal the US Constitution is evidence he took the oath of office in bad faith.
