What were not talking about is that the Ivy League, by design, with its construction of “status” and “value” is designed to create men for whom there are no consequences & to dehumanize everyone else. This the Cornell 7. Thus the expulsion of anyone who dares protest genocide. This is privilege.

I know the basic beats to the Cornell story but I haven't been able to make myself read through the whole thing. I'm so proud of the Cornell Sun staff and sent them a donation to support. Just want to let fellow survivors out here know it's ok to need to protect yourselves. PTSD is a bear. 💗

There were more men in a single documented gang rape at one school than the number of competitive trans athletes nationally. But I’ve heard a lot more politicians being asked about protecting girls from one of these scenarios and not another… I’ll let you guess which is which.

Any analysis of the Iran War that doesn't start and end with the fact that an entire cottage industry of think tankers and lobbyists and their friends in Congress were frothing at the mouth for literal decades for this got exactly what they wanted and it failed immediately and totally is wrong.

The thing is I genuinely believe that the DSA can organize and get a socialist into the presidency and I believe the public would go for it — but to do that you need the young folks who canvass to come out for you, every day. And they don’t come out for people they see as sell outs . 🤷🏽‍♀️

UN Israel ambassador, this guy, is staying in the building across from the Met on 82nd street. 99% sure we just saw him walking his dog, and suspicion heightened when his body guard noticed us noticing and almost stepped on our toddler in his ammateur hour body guarding.

It’s a known tactic of the feds to put ops in movements. That’s part of why I like organizing with people I know and do most of it offline. But if someone is always riding our allies — and that’s their whole thing — let’s use some common sense when listening. Please.

Just your reminder that Israel — a country the size of Massachusetts — ranks third worldwide in AI innovation and commercialization. Because they have a sequestered population to test it on. Another reminder that no one is free until everyone is free is a warning, not a slogan.

I spoke to a man who found himself on a deportation flight one dawn having no clue where he's going, after spending nearly two years in ICE detention. The purpose is to delete people. I am being quiet as to who they are and where they went because the US government targets those who speak up.

I have used the commissary workaround for some time to locate people. They often appear there before the official site. But it's labor intensive as you typically have to go into each individual detention center's system one at a time until you find them.

ICE's new policy is unprecedented. People who have detained for months are suddenly disappearing from the locator system — even if they haven't been moved. And people newly arrested are not showing up at all, their location now hidden from view. This will severely interfere with legal access.
