American private insurance is evil.
American private insurance is immoral.
American private insurance is depraved and psychotic.
Private insurance has no interest in actually getting people the healthcare they need, the only interest is profit
We NEED Medicare for all
After October 7th, Israel's government pledged that they would destroy Hamas and that the extreme devastation in Gaza would somehow be worth it because of that
Instead, Gaza is in ruins, civilians have been killed, hostages still held, AND Hamas is expanding in the West Bank
Jared Moskowitz is wrong
Jim Clyburn is wrong
John Fetterman is wrong
Morning Joe is wrong
Cenk Uygur (as usual) is wrong
Bernie Sanders is wrong
We should not be trying to work with Donald Trump and Elon Musk. They are the enemy, not our friends
We must fight their agenda
America has a serious problem with homelessness and mental illness
Jordan Neely was one of many to have these issues and acted terribly in public as a result
The answer is care and compassion not murder, violence, and vigilante justice
The acquittal is a joke and a disgrace
It's just Twitter users calling it ethnic cleansing
It's just leftist activists calling it ethnic cleansing
It's just the UN calling it ethnic cleansing
It's just the former defense minister calling it ethnic cleansing
It's just current ministers calling it ethnic cleansing
Kamala Harris was put in an impossible situation by Joe Biden and his team.
They smeared and slandered her for years and gave her the border issue of all things.
Then Biden ran for re-election and refused to drop out until July.
Harris had failures but remember this context
Local news is in crisis
Local papers have been shutting down or being bought by large corporations leaving much of the country without reliable news sources to tell them about local government and local news other than crime, car crashes, and the weather
Bring back local news
Make it stop

Some uncomfortable truths
Israelis and Palestinians have a shared future. There cannot be a happy ending for one and not the other. There can only be a happy ending for both or neither
Many Israelis and Palestinians are the same race and the same people. Neither are colonizers
I literally have not heard a single conservative give a good reason why kids shouldn't know about LGBTQ people
Sometimes people have two moms or two dads
Sometimes people change their genders.
Sometimes men dress up as women.
What does knowing that do?
This woman has literally pushed the great replacement theory and yet the president of the ADL is praising her.
This is just a good reminder in case anyone was confused that the ADL is only interested in unconditional loyalty to Bibi Netanyahu, not fighting antisemitism.
I feel like this app is kind of on the decline
I don't get how some people on election and political Twitter ended up so big. Sometimes like you or Jackie it's actually because you have good content but then some of the most mediocre and idiotic people have like 10,000 while some of the best accounts are quite small
Twitter annoys me a lot but I am far more active there than here simply because of the fact that I have 1300 followers there and only a couple dozen here
Hamas has stockpiles of food and water and fuel and other life necessities yet they are not giving anything to the people of Gaza who are being forced to steal from the UN in order to live.
Hamas MUST use their stockpiles and help the people of Gaza survive.
Yes
Invading Gaza feeds right into Hamas's hands. It's exactly what they want
I think the idea here is to pressure Hamas into releasing the hostages but that won't work because Hamas actively wants Palestinians to suffer, because it is good for their narrative of oppressor vs oppressed.
This war crime just hurts innocent civilians and no one else. Hamas will have stockpiles.
The current Israeli government is exactly what Hamas wants.
Hamas wants a government in Israel that kills civilians and that tries to reoccupy Gaza because that way Hamas can build public support and make themselves out to be oppressed.
Vote out Netanyahu
I guess are are really three options that I can think of.
Issue focused posts (ie how you would implement criminal justice reform)
Current events commentary and explainers
Talking about history and the backstory behind issues
Or maybe a mix of all of these
I'll check it out either way
"I feel like Joe Biden does not have a good chance to defeat Donald Trump so I'm going to support the nomination of the host of a random unhinged YouTube show that derides trans activists and spreads right wing talking points" - No one ever
What did they say
Gaza civilians deserve better
Hamas attacked Israel and started this particular war though. They are at fault for this conflict and have been committing unspeakable atrocities
The tribalism shown by people over the past 24 hours has been depressing to watch. Hamas attacked Israel and has been committing unspeakable atrocities. Yet, some people are trying to justify it because they can't see the conflict through anything other than "Israel bad"
If you support Hamas please let me know so I can block you
