No baby formula has entered Gaza for four months because of Israel’s genocidal blockades. There is nothing left to feed babies and their mothers can not produce milk as they themselves are starving. There is no defending what Israel is doing. No justification.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Next time you want to lecture people who are risking their lives to push back against fascism, remember the words of Assata Shakur.

“Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them.”

Absolutely. Everyone knew the West had no morals but it at least used to pretend it did. All safeguards have finally been shown beyond doubt to be toothless

Stop what you’re doing and watch this immediately.

Canadian doctors returned from Gaza and are sharing what they witnessed and lived.

They are demanding action from Mark Carney.

Their testimony is our failure.

Every Harry Potter book or shirt you buy directly funds the persecution of trans people.

There's absolutely no excuse to support anything Harry Potter anymore unless you hate trans people.

So let me get this straight: nothing Israel did to Gaza justified October 7, but also October 7 justifies everything Israel has been doing in Gaza, but also nothing Israel has been doing in Gaza since October 7 justifies any violence toward Israel.

Do I have that right?

If other countries shot at a Canadian delegation, they wouldn’t get off with a finger wagging. Canada needs to sanction and boycott Israel.
Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand says that four of Canada’s personnel were part of a delegation in the West Bank when Israel Defense Forces fired shots in their vicinity. She expects a full investigation.
