It is pretty noticeable that even as mainstream opinion on Israel and Gaza finally shifts, you don’t hear the Responsible Adults apologizing for punishing all the college kids protesting the atrocities. Quite the opposite in fact!

The point is to create a world in which the authoritarians can simultaneously inhabit a position of victim and abuser, creating an imagined threat of persecution and violence in order to persecute and carry out violence.
This is how this always works. We cannot allow this to continue.

no one has defined the anti-abundance politics of blue state governance more than Andrew Cuomo and it is absurd he keeps skating on this
Every predicted consequence of the Indian Point has come true: It's forced energy bills up and increased pollution. And it was entirely driven by former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, in a pretty major decision that has flown under the radar during his mayoral race -- www.lohud.com/story/news/n...
Hochul: Indian Point closed without a backup plan. How will NY cover clear energy gap?
In an interview, Gov. Kathy Hochul said New York failed to account for the impact shuttering Indian Point would have on NY's clean energy goals.

If you want more American flags at protests, you are welcome to go to the protests and fly one. No one will stop you. You yourself can create that picture of tolerance and pluralism.
But don't sit on the sidelines and tell a community under racist assault not to assert its right to exist.

Would love to hear the abundance crowd explain why Florida housing is so expensive given their building boom post COVID!
The average rental prices for studio apartments in New York and Miami are two to three times what one person earning the median income in those cities can afford. Here's a look at where else renters will struggle to find budget-friendly studios. nyti.ms/3HuI2E8

They All Signed the “Harper’s” Letter. Where Are They Now?
Many of those who were loudest in denouncing cancel culture then are now curiously silent in the face of Donald Trump’s assaults on free speech.

The thing about this guy is that he’s a total product of right-wing affirmative action and you literally would never have heard of him if he was a liberal.
The conservative activist Christopher Rufo has become an influential voice in the ear of the Trump administration as it turns his strategy into a crackdown on higher education.

The anti-trans movement is welfare for losers.
What a summary of the anti-trans movement:
March 23rd: female fencer competes in mixed-gender event, beating several male competitors, finishing 8th
March 30th: same fencer films herself telling trans competitor “I am refusing to fence you, because I am a woman and you are a man,” collects $5000

You have to understand that they hate you. Yes you, the educated liberal or leftist reading this on educated lib-left dot com. They took away AIDS medication from children for the specific purpose of making this video to trigger you. Triggering you is the goal and they will murder children to do it.
Are all government accounts on X just troll accounts now?
This is from the official House Foreign Affairs Committee—the same committee responsible for foreign aid, global HIV/AIDS policy, security assistance, and national security. This is how they choose to represent themselves.
