There was a significant portion of Nazis for whom the mass murder was more important to them than the war or the cover up. Eichmann, for example, defied orders to stop deportations & prioritize cover up instead in order to murder 100,000s of people. The war wasn't more important to him than murder.
The Nazis kept murdering Jews and others even though depleting their own population actively harmed their war effort.

Our job in 2026 and beyond is to make sure American fascists don't get even close to their goal
The incel Nazi trolls who posted this would also do well to google "critical mass" and try to figure out what would happen to America's food supply, healthcare system and transportation network if 100 million people were suddenly removed.

This woman has been locked up for 10 months while suffering from leukaemia

Just another example of how ICE is a disability justice issue

She’s being denied medical care. She’s lost 70lbs. She’s coughing up blood

It’s cruel & inhumane

They are choosing to let this woman suffer.

Never forget it.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Hana. Hana was a housewife and her husband Muhammad worked in a workshop, during the war he was injured which made him partially paralyzed. She’s trying to take care of their children Youseff, 13, Mayar, 12, Mira, 10, Aya, 8 and Yamen, 5.

It’s still not too late to wear a mask!

Covid and flu are raging. People are traveling for the holidays & getting sick in the process.

A well fitted respirator like an N95 protects you and those around you.

It’s an investment in your health plus it shows solidarity with the disability community.

A maternity ward doctor donated his own blood during surgery to keep a pregnant patient alive.

One woman gained fewer than 10 pounds over her entire pregnancy.

Another collapsed and had seizures during labor.

678,000 people live in Boston, with about 15% being children. That's about 100,000 children. If each needs are daycare spot, that's 100,000 spots needed. Cities, they're full of people!
The Right’s attack on daycare isn’t just racist (re: blaming “Somali fraud” even in cities where there are few Somalis and no indication of fraud)—it’s also anti-woman.

By attacking daycare they are absolutely implying women should be at home taking care of their children instead of having careers.
Trump guys are about to Comet Pizza every third daycare center because they think they are all fronts for Somali money laundering. They're only doing this near cities with progressive mayors. This is straight up Government by LibsOfTikTok.

Brigitte Bardot called for a nationwide ban on kosher food in France and was married to the political adviser of a Holocaust denier. But sure, a great opponent of antisemitism...

This is one of the reasons the “Covid is just a flu” narrative always bothered me.

It minimized the risk of COVID while also downplaying the severity of the flu.

The flu is not a joke. It can & does kill. It can & does disable.

Please get vaccinated.

A well fitted mask like an N95 helps too!
The death of any child is tragic. We always think it will not be my child, they are healthy. Severe influenza can be unpredictable & deadly. Getting vaccinated considerably reduces dz severity and deaths. Please make sure you are vaccinated & your children are too.

Gal Beckerman wrote a whole article about the fake decapitated babies- so I don’t think they are the best person to write about emotion.
A common assumption is that throughout history, people have experienced the same basic range of emotions. A radical field of history now challenges this assumption, Gal Beckerman reports. theatln.tc/KD2QRX9Y

It’s much easier to find a job or treat a drug addiction when your basic needs like food and shelter are being met.

That’s why “Housing First” policies are so important.

These cuts will force more people onto the streets.

They will increase suffering.

They will increase job insecurity.

Something that's getting lost in this story is that the "instructor" in question is not a professor with a PhD; she is a Graduate Teaching Assistant, meaning the University of Oklahoma has thrown one of ITS OWN STUDENTS under the bus to appease a right wing grifter who tried to dunk on a trans woman

look at how little effort it takes for someone on the conservative grievance circuit to destroy a life

millions of college kids have half assed an assignment at the last minute, you eat the F and move on

but the effort to push trans people out of public life will use whatever it can get
Worth noting that the student admits that she just threw the thing together in 30 minutes without reading the paper she was supposed to be responding to.

the least shocking thing in the epstein files that wont get enough attention. police regularly arrest and charge victims to coerce them into participating, often jailing them in conditions that are worse.
jesus the Palm Beach Police really sought arrest warrants against underage Epstein victims for coming forward and cooperating, and (purported) admitting to crimes, and it caused the victims to become uncooperative with the federal investigation
