talked to a palestinian man from the west bank last week who, in the middle of expressing his misery and horror about what’s going on, stopped multiple times & with true generosity of spirit to emphasize that judaism and jewish people aren’t to blame

I think it’s really important to note that this man joined our Seder/Shabbat service tonight. For the entire thing. I don’t ever want to hear the false narrative that Palestinians hate Jews.

Got roughed up & tossed out of the White House Correspondents Dinner for holding a sign: '100 journalists killed in Gaza.' Today was supposed to be about Free Speech. Irony much? My partner Tighe is still in pain after security's assault and while this was happening, journalists…
This practical impact of a couple signs like this at a protest is negligible imo, but I really wish more ppl would develop an analysis that doesn’t end up here.
“Jews and Palestinians” is an antisemitic construction, full stop. Jews are not at war with Palestinians. This is your brain on Zionism.
I can’t wait for this investigation

Jamie Dimon, head of JPMorgan Chase, is personal friends with Barack Obama. Did he become an activist or a banker after college. I think he became both. What he's an activist for, you tell me.
Also what the heck is this false dichotomy between becoming an "activist" and leading industry. Shriya thinks that corporate America stays out of politics? lol they are among the most political people in the world. They just lobby for their own $$$$$$.
This is the pro-genocide I was talking about, can you condemn this like I have condemned antisemitism and bigotry of all kind? “Kill All Arabs” “They are all Hamas. All grotesquely evil” “Level Gaza” theintercept.com/2024/04/24/uma…

Outside the White House Correspondents Dinner, protestors commemorated the more than 200 Palestinian journalists killed by Israeli forces

can i ask why do all these students from top school want to be “activists” to begin with? like, you got such high grades and SAT scores, i’m surprised so many of you apparently want to be the next MLK instead of lead some industry
That's too funny! My understanding is that Sweden dropped the probe because it showed what most people suspect: The US bombed the pipeline in an attempt to hurt Russia (but also to weaken the EU economy).
BREAKING: 🇨🇳🇺🇲 After the threats against China by Blinken, China is now calling for the launch of an international investigation into the Nord Stream TERRORIST attack under the auspices of the UN "It is impossible not to suspect that behind all these actions there is an…
@SecBlinken China is calling for an investigating of you and your dim witted boss re: Nordstream. Everyone knew you did it but the Chinese were polite and mature and didn’t call you out. But you think you can tell them to end their relationship with Russia. Now they’re responding. Haha.
The reason I say its practical impact is negligible is bc compared to the hypocritical pro-genocide outrage it’s inevitably met with, it’s nothing. But imo it’s not just insulting, but a serious theoretical error that would be dangerous if it ever gained mass acceptance
I hate that bad faith Zionists get such a kick out of finding signs like this to be offended by while endorsing or ignoring an actual genocide, and that I wonder if I can correct an idea I think is corrosive beyond how it misunderstands Jewish history without contributing to that
Jews & many other peoples historically don’t have a “real home.” If I belong anywhere in the world more than I do in Palestine it’s bc it involves less direct complicity in an active project for ethnic cleansing, not bc that it’s more of a ‘real’ home historically or personally
This practical impact of a couple signs like this at a protest is negligible imo, but I really wish more ppl would develop an analysis that doesn’t end up here.
@bjrisman No one said opponents of Zionism, "only" like the "good leftist Jews". In fact, the expectation is that many who believe in Zionism after a lifetime of indoctrination will leave it behind when evidence is provided. "good leftist Jews", your characterization, are those who have.
@TaliaRinger lots of Jewish people in the diaspora don't speak Hebrew? I'm not thrilled with saying that Jewish ppl who don't speak Hebrew don't count, somehow.
@katewillett Feels fitting for the moment after exhausting the ARPA funds signing up people for rental assistance that the rest of it would get used to arrest us. It occurred to me today that everything good the Biden administration spent money on is going and all that’s left is the bad.
Also what the heck is this false dichotomy between becoming an "activist" and leading industry. Shriya thinks that corporate America stays out of politics? lol they are among the most political people in the world. They just lobby for their own $$$$$$.
@tristanbard0516 I object to anything which postures as solidarity with Palestinians but is only in effect solidarity with notional Palestinians who suffer passively and perfectly, not actually existing Palestinians who fight back and support the resistance.
reform & revolution is a joke. they already showed their chauvinism in Cuba last year. now they think they can decide which groups the Palestinian people associate with? Ansarallah stops ships for Palestine. Iran arms Palestine. what does R&R do but piss and moan? pathetic.
Socialists must work to stop any expression of antisemitism in the movement as well as any slogans aligning ourselves with conservative, antisemitic forces like Hamas, the Houthi or the Iranian state. These self-marginalizing tactics are a dead end.
This is precisely how fascism presents itself in people who don’t otherwise know they’re fascists

Hundreds showed up to protest @washu's ties to @Boeing amid the war in Gaza today. Now, as @erjlee documents, mass arrests have begun by campus and local police. Stay tuned to @stlpublicradio for more soon.
She’s got my vote ✅
BREAKING: Jill Stein and her Campaign Manager and Deputy Campaign Manager, Jason Call and Kelly Merrill-Cayer, have been arrested at Washington University in St. Louis while supporting a protest against WashU’s ties to the war on Gaza. Video from @KallieECox
A career killer. Nobody wants to laugh at a right wing impressionist. Or watch the bigot Bill Maher’s “potcast.”
This is a model of how to support the protests even if you disagree with aspects of them. It’s very specific & from a scholar who opposes the war and supports Palestinian liberation. Calling to boycott even academic study of Israel is obviously counter productive
I’m a scholar of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and a longtime advocate for peace and for Palestinian rights. I have publicly opposed Israel’s occupation of the West Bank, and its blockade and now destruction of Gaza. I support the rights of students and faculty to peacefully…
