#MayTheFourthBeWithYou: Only accurate thing about this OFFICIAL WHITE HOUSE tweet is what the red lightsaber represents. Renditioning people without due process to an off-world penal colony for life is exactly what the Empire does... and the reaction against it is the Rebellion. #Resist!

If its not antisemitism when Columbia let alt right Nazis speak on its campus, but somehow is antisemitism when people peacefully protested genocide of Palestinians on Columbia's campus—then you'll have to stop pretending it was ever actually about antisemitism.

As a professor & a Jew I’m sick to my heart about the attack on Columbia—which is a) escalation of the war on all of higher ed; b) Jew-washing fascism, with the intention of inciting more antisemitism, which in turn will be used as cover for more fascism.

What’s actually antisemitic is ignoring the many Jewish voices who—alongside Palestinians—loudly and unapologetically protested the genocide in Gaza.

If we condemn genocide and you feel personally attacked, then you’re telling on yourself.

It is hard, of course, to get most people to think seriously about their place as beneficiaries imperialism when most of us are struggling daily and currently depend on the cheap food, shoddy clothes, and other spoils of capitalist empire just to survive.

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all."

The people of Maypearl trusted Police Chief Kevin Coffey.

Few were aware that Maypearl was the eighth law enforcement agency that Coffey had worked at in 11 years. And none could have predicted the destruction he would wreak in their town.

I just realized there were exactly 1400 days between Jan 6, 2021 & Nov 5, 2024

1400 days & Merrick Garland couldn't be bothered to show up for even 1 day to do his job & ensure no American is above the law.

1400 days of apathy.

1400 days of cowardice.

1400 days—& now an insurrectionist is POTUS.

The last president to declare martial law in South Korea was Chun Doo-hwan, right before he and Roh Tae-woo committed the #KwangjuMassacre (1980).
