One of the most interesting aspects of contemporary media discourse is the way that massive popular displays of support for pro-Palestinian and pacifist positions are just ignored by mainstream media. The Gathering for Gaza gig in Melbourne was huge

The Beastie Boys very nearly covered the Village People. It was Adam Yauch’s idea. Ad-Rock really wasn’t into it. He stood on a table, raised his arms over his head & shouted “Why, MCA?”

America is now at the heavily armed secret police doing warrantless door-to-door house raids in search of undesirable ethnicities and/or political dissenters stage. The difference from well known historical cases is down to scale.
A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis
The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway
They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming

That's how you call out cowardly corporate faux-legal bullshit.
A letter from Henry Reynold's lawyer. Of course an academic who wrote first (?) books about Australia's genocide/s of First Nations peoples, at a time when speaking up was even dangerous for white people's careers, is standing in solidarity with Randa. (Apologies for no ALT)

A spokesperson for the prime minister says the government is committed to protecting Australians from online harms. Tell that to the Australian victims of X-produced image-based abuse.

This is also a field test.
If the press lets them muddy the waters on executing a woman in Minneapolis despite multiple witnesses and video recordings clearly depicting what happened, the message they'll take away is that there's nothing they can't get away with.

"did you try to bribe the president of the united states by giving him your nobel peace prize so he will declare that you are in charge of venezuela after abducting its leader by military force" is just a thing that someone can be asked in an interview now and we all have to deal with that
Hannity: Did you at any point offered to give him the Nobel peace prize?
Machado: It hasn’t happened yet. We want to give it to him. Share it with him.
