"Jesse Jackson Made It Possible for Democrats to Speak About Palestine"

Activist James Zogby pays tribute to his late friend, who was the first politician to welcome Arab Americans into the Democratic Party - and even met with Yasser Arafat when others wouldn't.

Reposting with ALT because this kind of phenomenal disdain and disrespect from within the industry literally against two of their own titles and the designer who made them is important to recognize.

You do not have to study history very closely to understand the point of all of this is to widen the gap between the bosses and the workers. They think you deserve *nothing* and they deserve *everything*. Even Adam Smith, the godfather of capitalism, discussed this very openly (the “vile maxim”)

On a similar note this post is old but the fact that all the first search results for Sarkeesian Palestine which I just did out of curiosity are sympathetic towards Palestinians and not calling them dogs is good.

I see comments that I disagree with every hour & every day here on Bluesky, from people I generally agree with. I’m perfectly ok with supporting people I mostly agree a lot with, against people I overwhelmingly disagree with. We don’t have to agree on everything to work together against common foes.

Time to retell my worst first date story:

We're having drinks and a little while in she asks if I know who Andrew Wakefield is?

I launch into a real rant: call him a liar, list off all the errors in his work, his patents and other conflicts of interest, anyway, long story short he's her godfather.
Measles spreads easily. Ensuring you and your loved ones are up to date with your MMR or MMRV jabs is the best protection. Contact your GP to get vaccinated.

These are death camps.

This is eugenics & genocide.

You Americans can not claim ignorance.

If you don't take direct physical, armed action to stop the Holocaust 2.0, then you will never be allowed to wash their blood off your hands.
I know this makes me an extremist but I think our baby concentration camps should be abolished.

...when trans ppl tell you they won't vote for Newsom, as a Democrat, your first reflex shouldn't be to berate trans ppl. if you think that way, then you are either a transphobe or a BAD COALITION PARTNER. seriously if you want Dems to win, THEN WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO ALIENATE PART OF YOUR COALITION?

I’d love to get every single Democrat on board with “abolish ICE and dismantle DHS” but you’re going to need some votes from folks who don’t want to embrace that particular rhetoric and good news “there’s just too much corruption we’ve got to dismantle it to solve the problem” is sitting right there
gotta do investigations into DHS “waste, fraud and abuse” as pretext for killing the agency

it really is amazing how well the “are you pro Ukraine and pro Palestine” thing works as a basic moral litmus test
the test of “are you pro-Ukraine AND pro-Palestine?” remains the GOAT crank-catcher test
I bet you can make a lot of people mad by pointing out that the Ukrainians are fighting a deeply unambiguous anti-colonial war

Yes but they're white and American so instead it will all have been an unfortunate accident, who could have known, lone wolf actors, etc.
As a direct result of the obscene actions of Russell Vought and Elon Musk in destroying USAID, we can expect “at least 9.4 million additional deaths by 2030, if the current funding trend continues.

About 2.5 million of those deaths are projected to be children under the age of 5.”

You can also see this in older autism research where anytime they say they're researching "the impact of autism" they interview only the autistic person's family members & make no attempt to communicate with the autistic person.
When politicians discuss autism, pay attention to who they say they’re helping. You’ll find it’s almost always “families” or “parents of kids with autism,” rather than #autistic people ourselves. Their primary concern is the burden we supposedly impose on others. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it.
