NYer loves to claim a progressive politics but in the same stroke erase and defang those politics. The Student Intifada has been explicit: this is about Palestine. But what’s missing in this image: keffiyehs, Palestinian flags, the actual politics putting these students in cuffs

What the NYer is trying to do is take an audience of progressively minded liberals who may be sympathetic to the cause of the students and focus their attention on the students and not the cause. The students don’t need or want your sympathy. They want you to care about Palestine

This is strategic. The right (& swathes of Zionist liberals) will come after these students for being terrorist sympathizers. The faux-progressives will co-opt and distract, and their narrative has been at play for some time now: a culture war on campuses, threats to free speech

the fact that zionists cannot hear the statement “Palestinians deserve human rights” without bringing in antisemitism means they view their faith as inextricably linked with oppression and denial of human rights. that’s pretty antisemitic.

it’s worth repeating - we as Americans are not “complicit.” we are effectively equal to Israel in its murderous project and arguably maintaining and using Israel in our own murderous project. we are not complicit, we are responsible.
it is not hyperbole to say that israel is categorically in effect an extension, or rather a proxy state, of the united states—even if it operates a rogue state at times. israel is the US. others have said this but it is not just “complicity,” they are damn near the same entity.

its painful and exhausting to have suffered for being clear eyed ahead of the times and when people weren’t ready - but I am glad people are finally understanding this truth. Capitalists and billionaires are not your friends. They’re not liberatory. They co-opt to placate.
It’s almost the fourth anniversary of the essay I wrote about Bey critiquing her for being a capitalist btw. I feel an exhaustion that can’t be explained. They really tried to kill me over that and now here we are, finding out that billionaires are bad.
