I love these emerging points
1) Mad to see something beautiful and priceless seem to get destroyed? Good get equally mad about the planet getting destroyed
2) Don't worry, the painting is actually protected and safe--unlike our future
@joshfoxfilm
Dude you're just lying. Some people mean expulsion by that and you can reject that super strongly. Most people don't at all mean that. And literally nobody means what you claim
@MattWalshBlog
Come on dude, this is not hard
There's nothing at all contradictory in thinking that we currently invest too much in policing and too little in education, healthcare, and social services

One entry in his journal on the motorcycle trip. That's the full extent. The other shit you hear is made up. Like PragerU level
@TheWapplehouse
Wild how cops let him drive away when he's actually actively a danger to others and driving a giant weapon while different demographics get perforated just running away on foot

@Columbia
What do you mean by calls for violence and genocide of the Jews? Anything you can still construe that way after appreciating this point?
Shai this is either confused or dishonest. Let's distinguish between two ideas
A) Organizations calling for violence against Jews as Jews would be very bad and something a university can and should oppose and punish (1/

I feel like I'm grasping more of it these past few months and yeah it's fucking dark
Like global inequality is not a thing, global robbery is
Anyone who continues to support, defend, or enable this absolute evil—of Trump being catty and flippant and vindictive while dealing with matters of life and death for thousands—will be punished by a just God if one exist, and must be stopped by decent Americans if they exist
Hi, my name is Gretchen Whitmer, and that governor is me 👋
I've asked repeatedly and respectfully for help. We need it. No more political attacks, just PPEs, ventilators, N95 masks, test kits. You said you stand with Michigan — prove it.
Y'all I just wanna say that I live in a simple little apartment and own just a backpack of stuff and truly do not feel that I’m missing out on anything, so like don’t let neoliberal capitalism get its hooks into you too deep
Warren you were told at dinner how you are helping to murder the entire families of Americans. Along with many many many other families, now over 11,000 people. Your answer at dinner was that you were at dinner. Your answer now is only this? What the fuck is wrong with you?
The sharp rise in antisemitism and Islamophobia is dangerous. One step Congress can take now: fund security to protect mosques and synagogues from violence. I stand with people who want to worship in safety.
@christapeterso
But you get to learn things from some of them! I just learned how Gazans aren't really oppressed but only faking. And about a week ago I learned how the Gaza Strip was a gift from Israel to the Palestinians which is really kind
@PastorTrey05
Antisemitism in Jesus' name has gotta be the wildest one though. Centuries on centuries of hating and oppressing Jews in the name of a Jew who preached love and justice is just truly next level
@tradejolter
@petrogustavo
No he's exactly right, not affirming any hatred of Jews from Arabs or otherwise, and describing present colonial realities and the worse fascism and climate collapse the rich countries have us sprinting toward
A point about
@BernieSanders
and socialism/Cuba/Soviets that shouldn’t need to be made to adults but apparently does: it’s possible to praise or favor some aspects of a thing without praising or favoring all aspects of the thing
@tedcruz
And American protesters are standing against an oppressive capitalist government that tortures and murders people, and whose botched response to the virus needlessly killed over 100,000 Americans and counting
And I swear to God if somebody says that a cold blizzard means the planet isn’t warming I will find you and hold your head in a toilet and ask you why you're having trouble breathing when most of the room's filled with air to help you grasp the difference between local and global
Last night at an older folks' bonfire in Cleveland I told my mom's friend that I'd moved back to join the protests
Her eyes went wide like she'd seen a ghost, and the first thing she said was, no joke, "George Soros!"
Please look at this. Just a few blocks from me is where a past dictatorship tortured and murdered people
But before that dictatorship there had been democracy
Their democracy died. Ours is about to if Trump loses but retains power
And I swear to God if somebody says that a cold blizzard means the planet isn’t warming I will find you and hold your head in a toilet and ask you why you're having trouble breathing when most of the room's filled with air to help you grasp the difference between local and global
My heart is big. My heart can hold love for Israel, the homeland of the Jewish people. My heart feels the immense pain and horror the Israeli people are experiencing and I share that pain. My heart feels fear because of the anti-Semitism moving through this world with no end in

Bro that's not how things work. A picture does not provide hundreds of names. You can't get there from here
Feeling is not thinking. Assuming is not inferring. Being sure isn't being correct

Literally nobody supports the killing of a few dozen kids on 10/7
But because of lies and propaganda and manipulation some people actually do support the killing of a few thousand since
Next month something called the People's School of Socialism is going to start offering free online courses on topics from history to philosophy to gardening. Time for me to make like Socrates and corrupt the youth!
@s_socialism
Christians if your guy turns out to be our judge he might tell a whole bunch of us that he was hungry and thirsty and being bombed and we did nothing for him so now depart into the fire prepared for the devil and his angels
Hey, all you 'good Christians' who couldn't give a f*** about Palestine: You do know they're killing and ethnically cleansing Palestinian Christians, too? Or do you only give a shit about Christians who look like you?
I was hungry and you did not feed me. I was naked and you did not clothe me. I was fleeing the poverty your country caused in mine but at your border you cut me with saws and drowned me in the river. Depart from me into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels
B) Supporting resistance, including violent resistance, against a particular country might be wrong, might be something you disagree with personally, in principle or in particular cases, but is absolutely not something a university can or should oppose or punish (2/
@MutualAid4a
Honestly I still love the guy
He's nowhere near perfect, and I'd probably agree with most or all of your beefs
But I think it comes down to what standard we judge him by. Compared to perfection, sure, he's shit
But compared to politicians? Or Americans? Or old white dudes?

I'm so sorry to give an earnest response but did you know that the closest living relatives of rock hyraxes are *elephants* and *manatees* ???
