I like political theory, history, and baseball. Writing about the history of slavery in the Americas and Jewish messianic movements

Did they not notice how savagely the movement was repressed last year? Movements are organic and they ebb and flow, they change tactics in response to the shifting conjuncture. Also, yes, of course there still is a palestine movement in this country

Clutching your pearls at this just makes you look like an out of touch nerd

Don't ignore trump but ignore this post. Who cares? Go build a movement and win

Liberals should stop piously hand-wringing over this. 1) it is funny. 2) fascists want to profane the holy. Look at how trump discusses the military. It's a sign of the times to be used for different ends since the church and the military suck anyways

ultimately the question is not is Donald Trump popular but can you organize the anger against him in a way that matters

The dems may as well just start deporting legal residents without due process too. I mean how else will they show the electorate they also hate brown people?

I have a solution. Along with fighting for the right to due process, how about also fighting for a decent and fulfilling life for everyone regardless of race. Getting rid of ICE, making it easier to become a citizen and to be in the country legally. Have an actual ethics and world worth fighting for
