Billionaires have never been richer and control the majority of all the wealth and assets.

Right wing ghouls spend all their time trying to pretend that it's the government that's super rich when it's not a business at all

Important history that I didn’t know:

“We worked Monday to Monday, often without eating,” one man said. “They promised to kill us.”

Volkswagen kept a dark secret in the Amazon. Then a priest made a call.
Poor laborers were lured to the automaker’s cattle ranch in the Amazon and promised a better life. Brazilian prosecutors say many were enslaved.

In The Guardian: “As starvation spreads, Israeli killings of civilians has increased. One person was killed by Israel every 12 minutes in July, making it one of the deadliest months of the Gaza war, an analysis of UN data revealed.”
This is a Holocaust. Driven by race hatred & entitlement.

If you suppress the voices of the Brad Landers of the world, you’re going to leave voices like Tucker Carlson as the ones people are listening to on this. It’s grim as hell.

This is also going to create some really dark and quite bad tendencies among an entire cohort who are scrolling through an algorithm that shows them unspeakable horror and then, like, cynical reactionaries to literal Nazis decrying that horror but with zero context of who these people are.

The distance between what is in happening Gaza, fully backed with US dollars and political support, and the reaction of American politicians who by and large just don’t seem to care or support it is just completely brain-breaking.

This article on mass starvation in Gaza quotes an Israeli government spokesman blaming Hamas for diverting food aid to sell at higher prices to fund its operations. Even if we accept this is true, this would be an argument for flooding Gaza with food aid to drive down the cost of food for Hamas.

I tried to read the piece, truly I tried. But he lost me (and I my patience with him) when in the first two sentences he hypothesizes that you can't call what is happening in Gaza genocide, because Israel isn't genociding hard enough for it to count.

@kenwhite.bsky.social Bret Stephens: Slaughtering tens of thousands of people in Gaza while starving and displacing the rest—absolutely not genocide, doesn’t even resemble it in the least.
Also Bret Stephens: Calling me personally a bedbug on Twitter? Seems like Nazism to me!

In evaluating Brett Stephens’ claim that it is inappropriate to use the term “genocide” to describe Gaza, bear in mind he once complained to a professor’s provost when the professor jokingly called him a bedbug.
