there’s really not much difference between trump and reagan. reagan was a racist and he even had a white supremacist, lee atwater, as one of his advisers! reagan used racist dog whistles, trump uses an airhorn. but their political views are extremely similar

it was a speech from charles lindbergh, one of the speeches i hadn’t heard before, and his talking points were literally almost indistinguishable from what people say about ukraine today. lindbergh said the british could never win the war, should surrender etc

lindbergh never actually wanted to peace; he just wanted europe to be under nazi occupation and the “anti-war” rhetoric served as a great cover for his pro-fascist views. by pretending to be “anti-war,” he could retain some sort of moral legitimacy in the eyes of the public

medicare itself doesn’t deny more claims than private insurance. there’s a handful of services/care that medicare requires prior authorization but these are very uncommon. the red tape and denied coverage is from the supplemental medicare insurance sold by for-profit companies

i could be wrong but i don’t think this piece got the attention it deserves. kids are actually getting a FAR worse education with in-person learning because their teachers are out sick!!

one time some black israelite guys (i think?) were preaching on the street while i was with my friend and they asked my friend (who is white) “what color was jesus?” and my friend said “…ugh, black?” and the guy starts saying “EVEN THE WHITE DEVIL KNOWS THE TRUTH”
Maybe 6 weeks ago, I saw about 5 Black Hebrew Israelites demonstrating in a park & thought, "Man, you never see those guys anymore," and now Kyrie Irving is tweeting "Jewish slave-owners confess to devil worship." History from here on out is just the human mind collapsing

one of the most surreal videos i have ever seen. like watching a recording of a strange dream you had. trump sounds actually kind of sad that ginsberg died and says she was “amazing”? and then tiny dancer is playing in the background. my god
WATCH: Trump hears from a reporter that Justice Ginsburg has died.
"She just died? Wow. I didn't know that, you're telling me now for the first time."
"She led an amazing life. What else can you say? She was an amazing woman...I'm sad to hear that."

you are definitely pro-palestine if you believe in a two-state solution. surveys show that about half of all palestinians believe in a two state solution. do you think you know more about being pro-palestine than actual palestinians living in gaza and the west bank?
you are not pro-palestine if
- your 'activism' boils down to only arguing irl and not retweeting online
- you believe in 2-state
- you think resistance groups (hamas) are terrorists
- you hate jews
- you argue and speak over palestinians
- you stan zionists and defend them

it was great to help push back against IYSSE’s anti-ukrainian lies at NYU yesterday. the IYSSE, WSWS complain that there isn’t enough “dialogue” about the cause of the war. there has been plenty. it’s just that the debate is over. russia, not ukraine, is responsible for this war

i think palestinians are showing this because they are good people who care about animals as well as humans. not everything is about white people, jesus christ
You know the dehumanization is complete when the Palestinians are resorting to showing pics & videos of animals suffering due to the Zionist Occupation's bombing coz the pics & videos of dead men, women and children didn't generate an ounce of sympathy in the white western world.

majority of people in taiwan support the “status quo,” where taiwan is in practice a sovereign state but doesn’t have actual international legal recognition as such. this does not mean they don’t favor independence 🙄
70 percent of Americans are in favor of Taiwanese independence, but the majority of Taiwanese are against independence. ROFL.
Americans care so much about the people of Taiwan that they refuse to listen to them.

is there? because this is often how european colonialists defended cultural genocide and colonialism
It is true of course that there is a difference between colonial cultural genocide and the modernisation of a people by their national project. I think the journalist, like many people in the West, simply did not grasp that distinction.
