@ctjbgc Is that a boar spear?

Happy Birthday to America’s greatest white man and our name sake, John Brown. We hope to live up to his spirit, courage, and conviction. Born in Torrington we feel deep connection to him and the men and women who supported his movement whose ancestors we’re proud to call friends.

Look at my kitten, nigga

@TalbertSwan 10-12 million were killed in Holocaust. 6 million of them were Jewish.

Let’s clear up Dennis Prager’s anti Black racist lies and false comparisons between Jews in America and Black people. The Holocaust happened in EUROPE Between 1941 and 1945. 6 million were murdered. The systematic enslavement, lynching, rape, murder, brutalization, segregation, experimentation, racial profiling, mass incarceration, and dehumanization of Africans and their descendants in AMERICA happened between 1619 and the present. 55 million have been murdered. America never systematically codified the enslavement, mass murder, lynching, incarceration, and oppression of Jewish citizens into law. European Jews, like Prager, have been the beneficiaries of white supremacy and anti- Black bigotry in America. They have benefited from white privilege. Ignoring the history of violent white supremacy and relegating the condition of Black people in America to “seeing themselves as victims“ is a typical racist, white supremacist, talking point. It is pure foolery and racist gaslighting in its worst form.

Gaza was indeed beautiful. However, it also housed refugee camps like Al-Shati, with a population density of 78,000/km², and Jabalia Camp, where the density was 35,000/km². Gaza suffered from electricity cuts, high unemployment, a contaminated and very limited water supply, extremely high population density, and severe restrictions on freedom of movement. Cancer patients died, students lost scholarships, and malnutrition was a serious issue that many people struggled with. Each day, Gaza released 28.5 million gallons of wastewater into the Mediterranean, equivalent to 43 Olympic-sized swimming pools, due to a lack of spare parts and power supply to operate sewage treatment facilities. While Gaza retained its beauty, it was impoverished, de-developed, and faced serious existential questions, particularly concerning its demographics as its population was projected to double by 2050. Unfortunately, no one in the international community seemed interested in grappling with the Gaza issue. Gaza was left to endure Israel's periodic bombardment campaigns, and Palestinians there were abandoned to figure things out on their own. An explosion in Gaza was inevitable; it was not a matter of if it would happen, but how and when.

@briallenhopper It’s Occupy for a new generation.

This seems like a straightforward solution to the pseudo-problem of student protests nytimes.com/2024/05/08/wor…

@JakeAuch (((Coasts)))

The margin of victory for Joe Biden isn’t college protesters on the coasts. It’s Haley voters in the heartland — who aren’t sympathetic to under-informed, over-privileged kids on elite campuses.

Israel and its American supporters love collective punishment.

@DavidAvromBell @sunraysunray @GregGrandin Not committing genocide is “the left’s agenda.”

@sunraysunray @GregGrandin My bad. Among the hundreds of pieces Jacobin has published ripping into Biden I guess I missed the ones that urged your readers to vote for him. Jacobin’s vision of a left-liberal alliance is basically that the liberals should wholly adopt the left’s agenda.

Jacobin Pitchbot: Trump is worse than Biden, but he is going to win, deport millions, destroy the climate, shred the constitution, and sign a national abortion ban, and it’s all Biden’s fault because I’m too pure to vote for Biden.

This government is irredeemable

Hooray Philly PD! We’ll disarm you last.

The reason antisemitism is rising is that people think this represents all Jewish folks. “But they hate my people!” Yeah, no shit.

The Dem party is imploding. Maybe we’re moving into revolutionary times? So mote it be.

@BlackRedGuard1 Here in Asheville we have Comrade Parking Meter.

I love how the most inane shit ends up becoming symbols of rebellion lol. A fucking water jug. A folding chair.

Biden siding with @AIPAC over his voters will go down as the biggest political mistake in modern US history.

@Cande313 Congratulations to them! I just hope they’re good to their staff.
