One of the reasons the right is convinced that violence is only directed at them is their ability to ignore and forget all the acts of violence committed against the other side of the aisle. Ask Trump about the firebombing of Shapiro's home or the plot to kidnap Whitmer and I guarantee he'd whiff.

So our military just bombed a boat in international waters and extrajudicially killed suspected drug traffickers without so much as a conversation, let alone a trial? Then posted it on social media? And we’re all supposed to just trust their account?

Oh hey did we mention that David Gushee endorsed our book "Eucontamination: Disgust Theology and the Christian Life"? It's available today! @paulhoard.bsky.social
Eucontamination: Disgust Theology and the Christian Life

"The central insight of this creative, well-researched, and highly sophisticated book is that the human disgust reaction has been overpowerful yet underexamined in shaping some of the most destructive expressions of traditional Christianity, including, crucially, its historic contempt toward LGTBQIA+ people. The authors coin the term eucontamination to name what is actually a quite prominent theme in the New Testament - God's grace in Christ, is contamination for good. This is why we need not live out of a fearful purity ethic. They also offer reflection on church practices that can train us in seeing and living this way in the world. I highly recommend this breakthrough work."

Rev. Dr. David P. Gushee

Distinguished University Professor of Christian Ethics, Mercer University

Chair in Christian Social Ethics, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam

Elected Past-President, American Academy of Religion, Society of Christian Ethics

If you wonder why Ireland is such a center of Palestinian support, remember that they know what it’s like to be the target of… well, you might call it colonialist neglect, or you might call it genocide. Oh, do they remember. www.cnn.com/2024/03/29/m...
Palestinian flags flying from a building in Limerick, IrelandMarker at Gaelic Park in Oak Forest, Illinois, a club dedicated to Chicago’s Irish diaspora. It reads:

Dedicated to the memory of the more than two million Irish people who either died of starvation or were forced to emigrate during the dark days of the potato famine of 1845-48

The Great Hunger — never forget.

This is one of but many memorials, markers and museums in Ireland and across the Ireland diaspora remembering the Great Hunger.

When bigots believe merely existing is "confrontational", there's no level of existing that they'll agree with. Not even death, cus then they'll insist that grave markers should be wrong. Instead, cut bigots out of the conversation all together. They have no need to be present. Ever.

Trump/MAGA denouncing the police killing of Ashli Babbitt (on Jan. 6, as justified as police deadly force can get) while defending the police killing of George Floyd (so clearly unjustified a jury found him guilty) is not hypocrisy. It's friend-enemy fascism. Important point from @jvl.bsky.social.
A police officer barricaded into a room protecting elected officials from an armed mob attempting to break in for the stated purpose of “hanging” them was not supposed to use deadly force.

But a police officer performing the slow-motion killing of a restrained, nonviolent suspect was (a) well within his rights and also (b) wasn’t really responsible for the guy’s death anyway.

I am begging you, with tears in my eyes: Stop treating the politicians and commentators and other MAGA enablers who say these things as though they are acting in good faith.

These are fascists who see violence deployed by law enforcement as desirable when it is useful to them. But when it is not useful to their project, they pretend that the enforcement of laws is, in itself, illegitimate.
