it’s not “purity politics” to consider a fucking nazi tattoo disqualifying; you’ve just become completely desensitized to overt racism

behold, a guy with an LGBT flag in his bio explaining away the kind of SS tattoo one would expect David Duke to have. 🧲
I think this is lazier and stupider. Is the theory that he got this tattoo as an ideological signal and then afterward spent years posting online about how socialists need guns to fight nazis and fascists at home as part of some elaborate ploy?

The war between Hamas and Israel may be over for now, but the Hamas war on Palestinians is not.

here’s Hamas openly bragging about their fighters using civilian homes to fight while everyone decries the destruction of buildings throughout Gaza.
A resistance fighter in Gaza left a note of apology in a home he had entered during the residents’ displacement to the south. Beside the note, he placed 50 shekels, the price of a pair of shoes he had taken. When the homeowner later returned and found the money and the message,

all you need to understand about the conflict in the Middle East is that this is how too many people have interpreted Israel’s decisive military victories for the past 75 years and have thus avoided seeking a peaceful solution.

if Zionism was merely a European construct, the 750,000 Mizrahi Jews kicked out of their homes during the 1948 war wouldn’t have gone to Israel. this guy thinks everyone is stupid. 🤡
Irrelevant to Zionism and Israel's founding in 1948, which founded and were carried out overwhelmingly by European Jews. It's like saying that demographic change in America means America wasn't a colonial project.

The only thing that concerns me about Shaun King is that his finely-tuned grift sense tells him full blown neo-naziism is where the money is these days.

Concerning and sobering comments. As if a large part of the agenda of the war has been to weaken Hamas but not replace it. No day after plan, no governance to replace it, civilians always evacuated to remain under Hamas rule. Has the war dragged on in part just to keep the PA
Suleiman Maswadeh reports: "Despite all the declarations, in Netanyahu's entourage they admit: "There will be no escape from letting the Palestinian Authority/authorities manage Gaza'..."

The celebration of an assassination by some on the identarian left even as it becomes clearer that the killer was meme-soaked in the Reddit culture of the online far right only serves to clarify how very adjacent these categorizations now are.

@anarcho_ugly @PseudoGorky people can try to qualify it all they want. the simple fact is the amount of land Israel controls in 2025 has dramatically shrunk compared to the amount it controlled in the past. any effort to describe Israel as an expansionist state falls flat in the face of that.

@anarcho_ugly @PseudoGorky Israel also withdrew from southern Lebanon in 1999-2000.

This is worth reading. I agree it is impossible to justify the govt action then. In Hawaii during Covid, for a time, the bars were open and the schools were not. The smart response to this, however, isn’t to put someone in charge who will cause measles to make a comeback.
The damage done by this is incalculable. This, and the closing of churches while liberal-coded institutions were opening was a radicalizing, red-pill moment for so many conservatives.

guys like Matt think they're cute with this rubbish, but the simple fact is a two state solution would guarantee equal rights to both groups, and a one state solution would guarantee power struggles over who governs and the kind of civil war that destroyed Yugoslavia.

19th century Orientalists would be proud of this kind of patronizing racism.
Palestinians are best people on earth. On behalf of the moral world, we are so sorry we can't get you more help!! We're all desperate to help you, but our leaders are so corrupt. They won't listen to us! They have no mercy, they traded it for money. Rest of us love you, though.

the Washington Post's "open source" and "visual forensics expert" seems completely unaware that combatants in an *urban combat zone* might not always be identifiable by name. that is some excellent work by this country's second biggest newspaper. 🤡
An Israeli military intelligence database lists 8,900 slain Gazan militants by name as of May, which when compared against the Health Ministry's total of 53,000 dead, suggests a civilian death rate of more than 80%:

putting aside the rest of this entire bloviating post of mumbo jumbo, here’s a journalism pro tip: if you assert that Hamas doesn’t censor media in Gaza because they didn’t censor you, you should take a good, long, hard look in the mirror and wonder why that is.
🔴 Israel’s smear campaign against @AnasAlSharif0, before & after murdering him, is a textbook case of justifying a war crime. Hours after Netanyahu announced the occupation of Gaza, Anas & 5 other journalists were killed. Israel calls him a “Hamas militant.” But their own

Look, just because the guy shot some rockets at Israelis, posed with Hamas leaders, went into ecstasy during the October 7 massacre, and had exclusive access to Hamas operations, doesn’t mean he wasn’t an impartial journalist.
