again, this is part of why they want cop cities. it's why we have to stop cop cities everywhere
hearing that the students in our UConn campus jail are not being fed. also we have a campus jail.
btw this will change the direction of a lot of young people's lives. they'll never forget what was allowed to be done to the Palestinian people and they 'll be transformed by their experience of trying to stop it and being in this movement. good
like, really understand this: New Yorkers are paying cops to stay at Columbia’s campus to stop students from protesting war. This is what it means to fund the police
The trick now is not to panic, but to stick to the steady uptick in heightened protest and disruptive action. Across the country, undergrads are organized–and in communication with one another. At some colleges, campus workers are preparing to withhold their labor. We can win.
Police were quite literally throwing tables and pushing students down the stairs until one passed out. Inviting the NYPD onto campus at @Columbia University has both destroyed more property and endangered more people than the original occupation of the building.
Why don’t the admin of Columbia and CCNY simply use reason and debate
An active shooter alert, but the twist is that the school is the shooter.

Again and again
You send in violence workers to do violence. It's that simple.
That TIME cover looking like _If I Did It_
One of the rhetorical tricks of ‘terrorism’ is allowing those calling for more violence to toggle between talking about those who do certain acts (selectively) and large swaths of people based on identification.
Keep thinking about how the alleged reason for focusing on 'terrorism' is to combat widespread fear, but terror panic involves constantly making people afraid when they are safe.
If any student orgs or groups want to come on MAKC to talk about your encampments and not have to justify your existence or answer bad faith questions over the next 3 days just hit us up. An IG message is probably the easiest way to get us

There is only one male friendship dynamic: The Hot Guy and The Weird Little Freak. The twist is, all your Hot Guy Friends have Hotter Guy Friends and all your Weird Little Freak friends have Weirder Little Freak friends. Thus, all men are someone’s Weird Little Freak

This part
Contentious politics moved by the same grievances, occurring within the same type of institution, and using mostly the same repertoires, can still produce very different responses. You begin to get a sense of how broader historical-institutional contexts matter.
This International Workers' Day, Local 25 members are taking our fight to the streets to demand a fair contract with historic raises. Will we see you there?
the largest strike wave in U.S history was in 1947 - taft hartley was a response to an incredibly organized and militant labor movement begging you guys to at least skim wikipedia before posting
@BrandonMagner @postsenjoyer Unions were militant and active in 1935, they were fat and lazy by 1947. Concessions were granted in response to labor action and snatched back when labor was neutralized. Same people pulling the strings, same strategy, different situations
I keep seeing the idea floating around that the students learned how to eject cops from their space from active shooter drills in public schools -- has anyone seen any indication this is actually the case, or are people just enjoying the idea that it might be true?
Given how partisanship works, it takes a lot for a president to see opposition from a majority of the party base on an issue. That a majority of Dems disapprove of Biden’s handling of this should be a wake-up call.

My “job” has been to de-escalate counter protestors, and a funnier exchange i had was when an IDF solider said “the reason Palestinians are so good at war is they know their own land better.” And I said “their land?” And he said “oh I mean where they stay.” Lmao
I promise all of you that I have never taken Nate Silver seriously, and I never will. Not as a pundit. Not as a statistician.
This is, in general, the function of the centrist pundit. Taking their bullshit seriously is a trap.
This stream of messaging attributing protest motivation to everything but distress about the mass killing in Gaza is so dehumanizing to Palestinians
omg they’re so desperate they went from blaming covid for the pro-Palestine protests to blaming sex. I’m done 😭

Genuine question: has any Democrat condemned Ritchie Torres or expressed discomfort sharing a party with him?
Even though Hamas is the undeniable cause of the war in Gaza, the ICC might target Israel as though it were aggressor, as though Hamas had never committed October 7th. The issuance of arrest warrants would represent the culmination of a long process of criminalizing the…
ALL OF THIS!!! So much of “xyz is cops” discourse is just right wing libertarianism posing as left anti-statism usually brought upon by crudely doing analysis via analogy at the expense of a well rounded historical material analysis
If you believe the NLRB is cops, congratulations you’re a Libertarian. The NLRB and laws that institutionalize worker power have been won through struggle. It is the ownership class that believes that democratic government acting to enforce rights= infringement on (their)liberty.
