After years of our press hand-wringing about the figures as from the "Hamas run health ministry". Utterly shameful. But will we learn anything, hold anyone accountable for our enabling of genocide? Of course not.
Israel accepts health authorities’ Gaza death toll is broadly accurate, saying 70,000 have died
Israeli military’s abrupt U-turn in accepting official figures comes after years of attacking data as ‘Hamas propaganda’

A friend of mine, Matthew Barry, asked me to reflect and write on what's been going on in the Twin Cities, and how it intersects with the football culture I'm a part of here.
So I did that.
Here it is, for #HeartOfAFan.

UK anti-trans journalism is the twisted baby of UK anti-vax journalism and UK anti-gay journalism, with a sprinkling of tactics from UK anti-immigrant and UK anti-traveller journalism
I wasn't aware the anti-vax stuff originated in the UK till I saw hbomberguy's big video on it, and man was I getting constant deja vu with how the UK media reported on the anti-vax nonsense and how they report on trans people. Uncritically pushing junk science to harm people.

essentially my view of tonight is: i dont think it needs to be deeped that much. yes the scoreline doesnt reflect the match, but i havent got loads of massive issues with the way a heavily rotated arsenal thar finished with 2 academy lads/3 teenagers played

reminder that the west invented passports to control the movement of black/brown people into western countries after plundering their homes for centuries.
There's no meaningful justification for why the place of your birth gives anyone authority over where you should be allowed to live. The only reason hard borders exist is so that governments and the rich who own them can manage and control worker movements.

"Up to 380 people may have drowned attempting to cross the Mediterranean last week". The West's normalisation of the mass death of black Africans (because that is predominantly who these people are) will never be less than devastating.
