Infinitely more important than saving Palestinians from a genocide is saving Zionists from emotional distress when hearing the word genocide. -the Israel Lobby

This isnāt a ceasefire, and I doubt it ever was one.
BREAKING: At least 24 people are dead and 54 wounded after Israeli airstrikes in Gaza, testing the ceasefire that began in October, officials say.

1. Intelligence isnāt limited to predictive power (also see: Relevance Realization and Multiple Intelligences). 2. Some people who are intelligent, yet wise, donāt care to employ all of their energy toward making money.
if youāre so smart, why arenāt you making a killing on prediction markets

When Israel violates Trump's ceasefire, the mainstream media calls it "testing" the ceasefire. There is no circumstance in this or in any other universe in which Hamas could kill 24 Israelis and the media would reduce it to Hamas "testing" the ceasefire.

JhÄna = Zen
Zen teachers may diss JhÄna all day longā¦ but the word Zen literally means JhÄna. The lineage forgot its own name.

True in my experience.
You canāt trust people who say they donāt like kids. Because what theyāre really saying is: I donāt like honesty, wonder, or unfiltered humanity. Kids are the rawest form of truth. They wear no masks, they offer no performance. To dislike them is to dislike the parts of us

My takeaway from this meeting is that Zohran Mamdani is an exceptional politician and Chuck Schumer is not.
"The better he does, the happier I am," Donald Trump says about Zohran Mamdani as he congratulates him. Trump speaking with a warm tone towards the new mayor of New York City.

As Americans, we need to clarify our shared moral values! Otherwise, we're just going to continue yelling past each other, which the Status Quo loves. What is most important to you? to us? to all of us?

Trump saving Mamdani from the fascist question was a nice moment, both for the country and for Trump. He seemed magnanimous and thick-skinned, two traits he's not overly known for. It was a much better look. Press tried to goad them and neither one bit. Happy to see it.

Awwwwwwwwkward.
Asked to clarify if he thinks Trump is a fascist, before Mamdani can answer, Trump intervenes and laughs it off, saying, āThatās ok. You can just say yes. Thatās easier. Itās easier than explaining.ā

If one can abandon the view of an independent and fixed self, one can certainly abandon ideologies that necessitate the suffering of others.
An old friend, who identifies as a Zionist, recently emailed me upset about my anti-Zionist views. Strangely, they were also sympathetic to my use of the term āgenocideā to describe what was happening in Gaza. If your identity was rooted in an ideology that required the
