Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

During apartheid, South African armed forces killed 69 civilians in the Sharpeville Massacre. The world was shocked. This event is still taught in history classes.
On average, Israel has massacred more than 70 Palestinian civilians *every day* for the past 18 months.

Forced disappearance is a core authoritarian tactic. It's the main plot of recent Oscar-winner "I'm Still Here," about the Brazilian military regime. And it is happening to at least one legal resident of the US right now.
UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

And the questions everyone connected to Columbia--alums, faculty, staff, students, and neighbors--should be asking of its management:
What did you do to try to stop this?
What are you doing to reverse it?
Or are you facilitating it?
Any non-answer to the first two questions is a yes to the last.

Did you know: Canada now has more doctors per capita than ever before? So maybe it's time to start asking: Why so many patients? We're calling on more investment in social spending - you know, the things that KEEP us healthy in the first place? www.getwellcanada.ca/ #cdnpoli
