I sat down with Peter Gelderloos to talk about his decades of work exposing the damaging impact that pacifist discourse has in resistance movements, stigmatizing people who fight back boldly. You can hear the whole interview wherever you listen to podcasts or watch the video on YouTube.

We're witnessing the most aggressive, fanatical crackdown on free speech in my lifetime. The speed and breadth of government censorship and private sector and nonprofit capitulation has been astonishing. As has the lack of urgency/silence from people who've long claimed to care about this stuff.

None of this is new. In 2021, Israel blew up the Associated Press building in Gaza. In the past 2 years, Israel has killed 200+ journalists. The journalists: Hussam al-Masri w/ Reuters, Mohammed Salama w/ Al Jazeera, Mariam Abu Daqqa w/ Associated Press, Moaz Abu Taha w/ NBC, and Ahmad Abu Aziz.

Israel has killed 240+ journalists. People who'd cover a strike that killed their kids and go on to cover the next strike, in the pursuit of convincing the world to act, of the hope of tomorrow being different. How many more murders will it take for the mainstream media's cowardly fever to break?
