@AlliFlowers -- Buh-bye... don't let the door hit you on the way out...

If I knew this would make you unfollow me, I would have blocked you a long time ago.

If spreading a message to stop genocide is offensive to you, you can go fuck right off.

Peter Greene: CBS’ “60 Minutes” Confronts Moms for Liberty on Book Banning - “I don’t want my child to read that book” and “ No child in that school should be allowed to read that book” are very different. dianeravitch.net/2024/03/06/pe via @dianeravitch #censorship

What’s classy if you’re rich but taboo if you’re poor?

Taking money from the government.

The first post is just a No True Scotsman fallacy waiting to happen, because "progressives" have indeed drawn swastikas and worse.

As for the idea that the Houthis are following international law by attacking random ships, this is nonsense on stilts.

These people aren't just antisemitic, they're intellectually bankrupt, spewing any old nonsense in defense of antisemitism.

#Arizona prosecutors… issued #GrandJury subpoenas to multiple people linked to #Trump’s 2020 campaign, a sharp acceleration of their #criminal investigation into efforts to overturn Joe #Biden’s victory in the state.

The new steps… are a sign that AG Kris Mayes…is nearing a decision on whether to charge Trump’s allies in the state, incl’g #GOP activists who falsely posed as presidential electors in Dec 2020.

In what they claim to be acts of protest against #Israel’s offensive in #Gaza, the #Houthis have launched #missiles & #drones at many #ships transiting the #RedSea & the #GulfOfAden through one of the world’s busiest #shipping lanes, disrupting #global #trade. The #UnitedStates & #Britain have responded w/ #airstrikes on #Houthi targets, but the attacks have continued.

Note that 10/8 was before any significant retaliation.

(Yes, Israel did kill some of the terrorists who committed the massacre, but they hadn't invaded Gaza yet.)

So they weren't protesting, they were, as you said, celebrating.

Let's be clear - the Houthis don't have the technology to cut these cables as they threatened - but Russia does!

Several undersea communications cables in the Red Sea have been cut, affecting 25% of data traffic flowing between Asia and Europe

What a comparison - while Trump is focused on his latest scheme to avoid justice, President Biden is focused on actions that will improve the quality of life for the average American.

Penalties are free money to the credit card companies. They are already charging exorbitant, usurious interest rates. Once again, Biden actually accomplishes something positive, so watch the right sneer and belittle it.

Legacy media continue to focus on clicks instead of democracy.

It is flabbergasting to understand that most MAGA voters are functionally voting for a promise to never vote again.

@Oeneus

I'm sure they meant "death to Zionists", not "death to Jews", because, you know, antizionism isn't antisemitism, amirite?!

@stevel Nobody in the UK is really talking about the fact that this Home Office policy means they can in principle strip citizenship from and expel anyone with a single Jewish grandparent (b/c Israel's Law of Return applies), or a Canadian grandparent, or any Turkish ancestry AT ALL (Turkish citizenship is by descent, AIUI with no generational limit).

Funny how they only ever use it against dark-skinned people who embarrass the government politically.

🇹🇼Taiwan reports COVID-19 deaths in children.

"One of the deaths involved an unvaccinated 1-year-old girl with no underlying medical conditions."

"The other case was a 6-year-old girl who had a history of chronic neurological disease."

So in AL, there is no party registration, and the primaries are open. I got a Republican ballot so that I could vote against the Hos for Liberty candidate for school board, and figured I’d vote against Trump while I was at it.
