Awesome article about how capitalism monopolizes our time and then turns the attention and affection of love into commodities that can be sold.

The Political Economy of Love in Capitalism
Love requires attention, affection, and reciprocal flow — a natural cycle of giving and receiving. Capitalism can easily commodify the first two, but the third resists the market. That’s precisely why...

If you think what's happening in Minneapolis is bad, also check in on Gaza.

American Jews wash their hands of what Israel is doing in Gaza. But if the Vatican was slaughtering people, don't you think American Catholics should and would be speaking up?

If you're anti-racist in the West but silent on Zionism, you're missing the point. The Israeli state is a project of global white supremacy. Making this central to our message isn't 'radical'—it’s a historical fact. Palestinian liberation is a racial justice struggle.

Trump just said we are going to "run" Venezuela until a safe transition can be made.

It's like we've learned absolutely nothing from the last 25 years and all the lives lost...

I have had a Jewish person essentially say this to me, thst only she knows the truth, from the comfort of her Chicago law office.

An Israeli soldier is killed, so they bomb civilians and children. This is the very definition of war criminality. #gazagenocide

On this "No Kings" Day, it's worth considering that, whether because of human nature or the centralizing character of all systems, power seeks more power, and authority breeds authoritarianism, unless power is purposely dispersed and limited. #nokings

Not allowing in aid kills Palestinians, just like their bombs do. This is not a ceasefire. #gazagenocide

Israel must be watched carefully after any ceasefire agreement with #Gaza. They've already repeatedly broken the ceasefire with Lebanon, killing people and destroying property.

You've got to be a special kind of evil to keep food from getting to starving people.

We are horrified and saddened by the death of our colleague Hussein Alnajjar who died yesterday in #Gaza.

His death was due to shrapnel injuries caused by an Israeli airstrike near his tent five days earlier.

Gaza is the moral issue of our era. And we are failing.

If the Vatican had bombed and destroyed 90% of Rome and was blockading and starving its people, we would expect Catholics worldwide to denounce this and put pressure on their co-religionists.

So why do people get upset when one expects Jewish people worldwide to denounce the genocide by Israel?

Without urgent, radical intervention, #Gaza faces total annihilation.

We call for an immediate end to evacuation orders used as a tool of forcible displacement, a lasting ceasefire and the unrestricted entry of humanitarian aid at scale.
