Class time: Let's use the Overton Window to discuss how pagers-as-booby-traps is really bad for humanity, and how journalists are already failing at this basic test of ethics and morality.

I don’t understand how’s this not causing global outrage/panic? This is breach of security. YOUR MOBILE DEVICE COULD LITERALLY EXPLODE AT ANY MINUTE! A state could order your execution from thousands of miles away! How’s this not terrifying to all of you? Is this democracy?

The Gaza Ministry of Health released a 649-page document with the name of every identified Palestinian killed in Gaza. The first 14 pages alone are babies under the age of one. This is not self-defense. This is genocide.

Allegations is a crazy word to use when you’re posting evidence of the widespread torture and sexual abuse
Allegations of widespread torture and sexual abuse have been reported by Palestinian detainees - held by Israeli forces. The Israeli army and prison service deny abuse systematic and say wrongdoing is being investigated. Watch part one of two. 1/3

Ppl do this to Natives too. People who consider themselves allies push the “noble savage” trope onto us then when we display real human emotions & get angry about our ongoing genocide, it shatters their romanticized image of us & they suddenly don’t like us anymore
We don’t have to romanticize Palestinians to be down for Palestinian liberation. It’s not how perfect Palestinians are. It’s that they are facing genocide, land theft, occupation, ethnic cleansing and erasure. It’s about standing against systems of oppression and people’s freedom

The soullessness of this attempt is breathtaking but it's also an incredible testament to the threat posed by a single young woman with an iPhone. It eats people alive that 2000-pound bombs have not been able to snuff out the power of witness and narrative

Being called a radical for believing every person should have enough food to eat, a roof over their heads, and access to healthcare and education is wild. But here we are.

The UN literally called Sudan “one of the worst humanitarian disasters in recent memory” back in March. I guess having that label doesn’t mobilize more support. Instead we have people trying to silence us or downplay our plight.
