A lot of people have reverse-engineered their entire understanding of 🇮🇱/🇵🇸 specifically to defend Joe Biden in online arguments c. February 2024 and it all ends up being fascinatingly weird.

It's funny that one loud camp is (predictably) saying that Mamdani’s antisemitism plan is not Zionist enough, while another is claiming it's (somehow) too Zionist. What both overlook, because neither really care, is the project of fighting antisemitism in NYC on its own terms

The thing in all of these arguments is that people just insist that you have to treat totally unprecedented permanent and unlimited military support as an unquestioned baseline, instead of a highly contingent state of affairs.

In another world Israel's offensive in Gaza petered out in November/December 2023 as they expended their entire strategic stockpile of aerial bombs, as the US followed its own laws and moral obligations and did not provide new supply.

Tonight, 47 Senators supported my resolution to get accountability for the 9 Americans killed on the West Bank & for Palestinians who face injustices daily. That's more support than we've ever had in this fight. Republicans blocked us, but we won't stop until we get justice.

Genuinely psychotic reactions and also unfortunately the people paid to fight antisemitism think these people are their allies in the fight against holding Israel accountable for anything.

Adam Hoffman was charged with sexually abusing a child and was facing life in prison. Ken Paxton tried to give him a sweetheart deal with only one day served in prison. Ken Paxton is a danger to our kids and belongs nowhere near the Senate.

It's also possible that the polls just look drunk because the country got kicked in the head and is justifiably very upset.

the thing about MAGA, including elon, is that taking their money can be very easily legally done because we have insanely bad laws about asset forfeiture, and you can also very easily build a case to the public for why. you don't need to convince a skeptical judge. and money is why they do this.

Michael Tracey is actively attempting to dox Jane Doe in the Cornell 7 rape case
Michael Tracey : If you happen to know who this Cornell "Jane Doe" is, get in touch and I would be happy to publish her name and identifying information. And yes -- this is 100% permitted under the First Amendment, whatever threats or emotional blackmail people might want to deploy"Report" me for what, exactly? Save your breath, scumbag. Sorry you hate the First Amendment so much. Her identity is obviously newsworthy at this point, and I will take extreme pleasure in reporting it. (Not "doxing" -- that's a total canard)

Always funny when ostensible liberals are like "You see, this postcolonial conflict is actually very nuanced and complex, because what makes it so very unique is that the majority ethnic group doesn't want to share power with the minority ethnic groups." Oh wow, I didn't know that, that's wild man.

The basic problem in Israel & Palestine is that the Oslo Accords ended with Rabin dead at the hands of the right wing that's dominated Israeli politics since. We could not acknowledge this shift without reengineering our entire regional policy, so we didn't.

You will notice that at no point in this thread is there any engagement with actual Israeli policy, or the response of various Palestinian national movements, or how international law should be applied, etc, because it's mostly about his discursive enemies, rather than anything real or concrete.

It's also untrue that Meischa was "surprised" by the arrest. She has been called to court by eight different businesses in three different Kansas counties over a multi-year period, including a different hospital and an
