This is now the worst performing video I have published on YouTube in six months. It is getting 1/30th of my usual reach. Any coincidence that a vid where I put "Gaza" in the title is being absolutely throttled? I'm gonna venture a no on that one.
YouTube and TikTok are both throttling this video. If I talk about the genocide in Gaza, the platforms I use make sure people don't hear about it. Famine was an intentional strategy of the Nazis. Famine is man-made. Is it a choice to inflict famine. Israel is starving children.
Famine is a man-made crisis and it is happening in Gaza

It’s important to note this is not and was never about citizenship. It’s about removing diversity and dissent to authoritarian power.

Every man denied due process deserves basic rights because they are human. But remember that they are just the first and no one is safe:

It’s important to understand their twisted endgame so we can fight against it. And so Americans who aren’t billionaires stop thinking that these people are ever going to be on your side.

We need to stop referring to the place in El Salvador as a prison. There are no rules, no parole, no access to the outdoors, no visitors, no lawyers, no family allowed and no one ever leaves that enters. It is not a “mega prison” it’s a concentration camp and torture facility! The language matters!

We must call these hypocrites out on their claim that they’re targeting universities & students for antisemitism. They’re not. They’re using Jews as a pretext, which makes Jews less safe.

This is what the so-called war on “woke” was always about it, convincing people that what happens to the marginalized can’t happen to them. It can, it will. First, challenge citizenship by birth. Then, unconstitutionally expel citizens from their own country. “Deport” is the incorrect word, btw.

"...the friendless alien has indeed been selected as the safest subject of a first experiment; but the citizen will soon follow..."
At some point, serious journalists and others have to stop dismissing as hyperbolic or hysterical those who keep predicting where this is going. Some of us said weeks ago the aim was always going to be to do these things first to non-citizens to clear the way to do this to CITIZENS.

Fascinating to see so many otherwise intelligent and privileged people discover that Trump is disastrous for America and the world at the exact moment their bottom line, wealth, and stock portfolio took a hit.

As long as Trump was attacking "the woke" and college students, they were on board.

Authoritarians depend on you obeying in advance and not resisting. Every act of disruption weakens them and slows down their plan. It's a crack. The cracks add up. This is why what Cory Booker is doing is important compared to the weak complicity of Schumer and others.
