Imagine being so ugly your own genocidal government condemns the publication of your photograph as a hate crime.
Ambassador Jonathan Peled@JonathanPeled
Condanniamo fermamente l’uso manipolatorio della recente copertina de L’Espresso. L'immagine distorce la complessa realtà con cui Israele deve convivere, promuovendo stereotipi e odio. Un giornalismo responsabile deve essere equilibrato e corretto. #MediaResponsibility

“one piece is mid” okay tell me what other media manages to cover dictatorship, racism, slavery, genocide, sexism, trauma, ptsd, oppression, tyranny, corrupted governments, revolution, all while showing that it’s important to keep chasing your dreams with your friends

@Dreamweasel I hate to break it to you but if you measure the field by those lines, you can't push back against Israel at all without being accused of terrorism.
Pushing back against Israel *is* the terrorism.

Fuck this asshole. When you support Hamas, it makes it harder for anyone else to push back against Israel without being accused of terrorism.
Shannon Watts@shannonrwatts
Jon Favreau: "When you say Hamas is a thousand times better, do you mean that?" Hasan Piker: "I do mean it … I would vote for Hamas over Israel every single time.”

@borderlinesmart Maybe if you'd recognised Biden & Harris's utter moral failure instead of sticking your fingers in your ears & trying to 'lalala' it away (as per the shocking Dem convention footage), Trump wouldn't be around to blame.
What's important to know about Trump is that he's your fault
English
Biden and Harris were personally responsible for every campus arrest. Pete Buttigieg caused every train derailment when he was transportation secretary. As for blaming Trump, it's important to know these problems are systemic,
Toomin 🇵🇸@ramthebladeship
The student protests have been nonexistent because this is what Biden&Harris did to those brave fucking kids 2 years ago

There's nothing unusual about Muslims defending Jesus.. what's unusual is how many people still don't know that.. In Islam, he is a central, honored prophet whose respect is deeply rooted in faith.
Masoud Pezeshkian@drpezeshkian
His Holiness Pope Leo XIV (@Pontifex), I condemn the insult to Your Excellency on behalf of the great nation of Iran, and declare that the desecration of Jesus, the prophet of peace and brotherhood, is not acceptable to any free person. I wish you glory by Allah.

Netanyahu is arguably the only criminal in human history who has managed to stay out of prison by openly committing infinitely more heinous crimes.

They condemn Hamas for the same reason that they hate communists, because they disrupt the status quo that continues to benefit them, which is also why they feel comfortable siding with a fictional resistance in movies. It doesn’t threaten their privilege in real life.

The irony of this is that it implies the Sanders camp won't support the Democrats if they remain a party of 'corporate America'.
To date, there is no evidence that is the case.

There's no "Must" with Iran.
You can't tell what Iran can or can't do.
That's your Arab ass kissers in Qatar, UAE, and Saudi Arabia.
Persians NEVER kiss ass.
Senate Republicans@SenateGOP
Iran must abandon its goal of nuclear weapons, end its support for terrorism, and open the Strait of Hormuz. Otherwise, they will continue to face consequences.

This couldn't be more performative.

Young women and girls performed a protest dance aimed at President Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. The dancers wore blindfolds and leotards with different passages from the Epstein files printed on them. wapo.st/4soMhTG

I mean she's right. She helped run cover for a genocide ("working tirelessly" ) and then had to be pushed into opposing sending weapons to the people doing the genocide.
Why would leftists be "satisfied" with that? Why would they have her back?
Political Polls@PpollingNumbers
News - Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez clashes with the left as 2028 talk builds, privately venting that progressives are “never satisfied” and didn’t have her back.

@mistergeezy Oh no, they smashed a window, how devilish! I'm sure all those decent Palestinians & Lebanese they were protesting for would've told them that isn't the way, if they weren't buried in pieces under rubble

This image actually has me seething because I sometimes think that diplomacy would be my ideal career, if I could choose, but I can't pursue it because it would mean working for the goddamn UK Foreign Office
