Anyway, I despise this, because it’s deliberately obfuscatory of the truth, which is that Mamdani’s voters were whiter _and richer_ than Cuomo’s were. Homeowners in NYC tend to be middle-class New Yorkers who’ve lived there decades; gentrifiers tend to rent and rely on generational wealth.

It’s not weird at all—it’s an allegory in which freedom from oppression is a luxury to be bestowed upon a passive marginalized other by those who oppress. How could anything possibly change in this paradigmatic framing of the issue?
It’s an awful metaphor that precludes the possibility of progress.

Johnson and Johnson have made it clear for years that Tylenol is contraindicated in pregnancy. Literally just a pick up a bottle and read it. The disinfo you all are spreading just because TrUmP is scary and insane.

I don't care if every single Palestinian wants to chop my tranny ass up with dull knives, they still don't deserve to be genocided. how do you ignorant crackers not get that?
He literally didn't demand that at all, nor did he justify violence against them. He just pointed out the solidarity between right-wing Islamic groups and the LGBTQIA community only goes one way and will never be returned. It makes no sense to show uncritical support for the religious right wing.

This. Also cool how everyone forgets about LGBT Palestinians every single fucking time.
Tacit? No, not at all. Note the use of the words "complicit" and especially "OUR ruling class." He understood very cogently what role the United States plays in "Israel."

Given the countless eye-witness accounts from “Israeli” hostages on 10/7 testifying that they were shot at from helicopters (which were published days after the fact), isn’t it insanely irrational and irresponsible not to?

I can’t quite put it into words yet, but something is happening, a kind of global singularity—a fusion of tech/media/news/government/employment which allows the global elite to push single agendas: “You WILL care about Charlie Kirk. You will NOT care about Palestine. You WILL fear cancel culture.”

It’s really critical we unearth this Epstein business five years too late right now, as there is nothing else more important happening at this moment that merits discussion

The last message after our first and last conversation over DMs which lasted about six hours through the night. This is him politely letting me know that my exuberance at meeting someone so astonishingly, even eerily similar to myself had worn him out, and that we’d pick it up again another day.

I think the fact that the president can make up a bullshit pretext about crime, activate various states' national guard units and invade a major city with basically minimal pushback of any kind reflects very poorly on Americans generally

“If it’s one thing Americans are known for, it’s docility and never going out on the streets or rioting” —some cracker online of course
God you're right why didn't anyone else think of that, capitalism makes it hard to read for fun so we should never ever criticize the social conditions that encourage people to become less literate

Putin and his gang, more than anyone, secured the Cold War victory over communism by counterbalancing the rapaciousness of the joint Russian bourgeoisie and NATO reconquest of the USSR threatening a socialist counter revolt through deft politicking. So if you hate the USSR AND Putin, wtf do you WANT

It's funny how "hit dog hollering" is often used to describe people having a normal reaction to things, much like it is normal for a dog that you are hitting to holler

The metaphor is that you’re presumably not the dog in question if you’re not also guilty of whatever it is the other party is being accused, genius.
