as more people get out into the street, some questions worth asking:
- what risks/sacrifices are you willing to make for what you believe in?
- are your actions symbolic or do they have material impact? do they protect ppl from state violence?
- is your community in need of your energy elsewhere?

George Floyd was murdered by police five years ago today.
The Say Their Names cemetery in Minneapolis features memorials for Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Amadou Diallo, Oscar Grant, Korryn Gaines, Freddie Gray and far too many more Black people who died at the hands of police.

Here's the reality of this "Jewish safety" argument I keep hearing:
The only world that's safe for us is one that's safe for everyone else, too. You can't kill your way to safety.
And the best way to make a world safe for everyone is to start with our own. Because we have a genocide to stop.

"It's war, shit happens."
No actually. There's law in war. There are rules. You don't get to carpet bomb civilian populations and then chalk it up to "war sucks." That's literally why they're called "war crimes."

I'm going to tell you a true story. And when I'm done, you'll never look at homeless people the same way again.
Several years ago, when I was still working at a legal aid clinic, a partner organization asked us to take the case of a quintessential little old lady. She was in her 80s, and homeless.

How Labor can say, with a straight face, that they are opposed to LNP policies when they've literally teamed up with them to push through countless shit bills and gut the NDIS is wild to me. They are the Australian version of that meme with the Democrats bomber covered in rainbow flags.
I'm not sure a more "hot take from the Chairman's Lounge" op ed has ever been published.

I highly recommend that people shift to a credit union or local bank if you have not already done so. Corporate banks are precisely corporations whose sole function purpose is to profit off of you. They do not exist to help you with anything whatsoever. Move your money.
