"and yes, she is" is an explicit nazi dogwhistle for pointing out who is jewish.

she has been spewing some legit nazi rhetoric and interacting with known neonazis

she didnt "call some israelis parasites"

she said *zionists* were parasites and vampires, while also saying that she doesnt care about the difference between zionists and jews.

Tweet from Susan Abulhawa: "Dear Fam, I'm hugely grateful for the outpouring of support following Mamdani's unfortunate capitulation to zionist power in which he chose to disparage and repudiate me. I didn't see what was happening until late yesterday, after I returned from an iftar with friends. I plan to post a response later today or maybe tomorrow, enshallah. In the meantime, let's keep our focus on the crimes and victims of Jewish supremacist zionist ghouls, vampires, parasites, etc."

Tweet from Susan Abulhawa: "Israelis should not feel safe anywhere in the world. I also don't give a shit if people collapse the distinction between zionists from jews—not when 82% [at least] of Jewish Israelis and the same percentage of American Jews support this holocaust. And a high proportion of the ones who don't support it, do so because it's bad for Jews, not necessarily because they're literally exterminating the indigenous people of the land they stole. Wipe that vile colony from this earth. The only way humanity has a fighting chance at a moral future if this cancer is excised from our political, moral, and social reality."

The fact that Mamdani criticized Susan Abulhawa - who has pretty definitively crossed the line between anti-Zionism and antisemitism - should be a reason for Jewish organizations to thank him for showing solidarity. But I'm not holding my breath.

Not that it matters but it's laughably false that 82% of American Jews support what Israel is doing

Never fund DHS again. Abolish it completely.

If someone wants to moan about "but but we have to ____" yeah fine we can discuss a new department, but *this* department has to go.

i think that makes it worse, personally. the idea that we are faking our identities to deceive and harm others is a classic transphobic trope.

it's possible i oversold it? all i can say is i *really* hated it

i mean the ending is some of the most horrific transphobia ever depicted in media so that's what i would do.

Half of US broadcast network dramas are about cops Perhaps one reason why America’s national reckoning on police brutality took so long to arrive is because TV is conditioning its citizens to view cops as reliable heroes.

“Jews are overrepresented in the media.”

No, no, no, you’re thinking of cops. Cops are overrepresented in the media.

• The vehicle is registered to a man in Dearborn Heights, Michigan, who was originally from Lebanon, law enforcement sources told CNN. Authorities are investigating reports that the man told people that he had family members who were killed in an Israeli airstrike in Lebanon in recent days, those officials said.

It is horrific what happened to this man’s family. But some Jewish American children worshipping at a synagogue in Michigan are not fucking responsible. This is another case of blaming all Jews for the actions of Israel. This is why we constantly beg you not to do that.

It's arguable that Netanyahu knows this, and explicitly ties his/Israel's actions to Jews more broadly to increase precarity for us. He can then argue that the danger he's exacerbating increases Israel's necessity and its appeal as a place for us to emigrate to.

"nobody"

that is definitely not true.

Our culture has a contingency which is obsessed with finding the magic phrase which will turn off bigotry but look, there just isn't one.

Which is why we need both systems to prevent that bigotry from shaping policy and a culture which shuns and shames those who are bigoted.

Why Do Some People Still Wear Masks In 2026 And On A Completely Unrelated Note Why Is Everyone In The Office Sick Right Now Apart From The Guy In The Mask?

A comic. 1: 1987 10-year old Jaq (in the form of a blobbly li'l male person) draws a Garfield & thinks "I wanna be a world-famous cartoonist! 2: 1995 18-year old Jaq (same blobby male, a bit more desheveled) drawing a comic page taped to a drafting table thinking "I wanna be a fairly well-known comic artist" 3: 2002 25-year old Jaq (looking quite desheveled) drawing more & thinking "I wanna marginally get by in comics" 4: 2013 36-year old Jaq, surrounded by comic pages, drinking Rum from the bottle, looking defeated "I wanna not become entirely irrelevant, forgotten, and destroyed by comics." 5: 2017 40-year old Jaq in a blobby crumpled hear surrounded by pages & liquor bottles "I wanna die" 6: 2019 42-yr old Jaq, still a blobby male but a li'l more cleaned up, next to a recycling bin full of liquor bottles "I wanna be... a girl??" 7: 2023 46-year old Jaq, now a full-figure, non-blobby lady, mellow & smiling "I wanna be a bunny"

I wanna be *now with alt text*

Sorry for quoting my own book but this was from 2015. Liberals’ learning curve is a flat line.

I've submitted multiple. Never once been published. They often don't even publish my comments on anti trans nyt articles. It's that repressive.

she does a lot of really good reporting but unfortunately she also will exaggerate how bad things are. you really have to be discerning with her and follow up with primary sources (usually by reading the actual text of whatever bill is being proposed, or by understanding how likely it is to pass.)

they might be waiting for the general, thinking that having platner as the dem nominee will give the right a better chance to win

You can just be a tomboy or a feminine man update:

Another tough day for team “there’s no point in complaining about AI, just accept it.”

do you think the big account screenshotting them to directly attack them is also posturing, or is it only posturing when marginalized people criticize a pretty common phenomenon of insincere superficial allyship

If you're reading this and are upset that trans folk are criticizing allies about performative allyship, go give a trans person money right now. No I'm not joking. You wanna be an ally? Help a trans person get their meals for the week. Or their meds for the year. Or shelter. *Give material support*

woow. classic.

Tell a cis person about V coding and they will tut and wring their hands and make grumbling noises about how terrible it is and someone should do something and then turn around and be flabbergasted/confused why we don't want to travel to a state where taking a piss leads to jail time.

An old onion headline: "It Is Journalism's Sacred Duty To Endanger The Lives Of As Many Trans People As Possible"

Idk man, seems rather suspect

While there are a bunch of transphobic liberals I think a lot of them are less "we must exterminate the trannies" and more "if we allow/help the conservatives to exterminate these weirdos they will lose them as a weapon against us and we can get back to normal politics" and they're just as dangerous

this is really embarrassing

The real smarts of Sun Tzu was manipulating the failson princes to read his warfare 101 by marketing it as genius tactics & deep secrets so well it's still thought of the same way by the same class & quite a lot of the rest of us 1000s of years latter.
