I've always thought FIRE was a deeply hypocritical organization, but this time they've outdone themselves.

It's astonishing how much of the anti-protestor discourse is bullshit. This is a bald example but much of it falls apart on close examination. But centrist liberals are going all in on this because it helps them evade the reality of what is happening in Gaza & West Bank.

Is AIPAC, funded by right-wing plutocrats and donating to members of congress who voted to override the results of the 2020 election, a part of this "coalition big and broad enough" to defeat anti-democratic forces?

Yesterday, America lost its greatest poetry critic, Helen Vendler. I cannot help but notice the date--April 23rd--so of all the masterful commentaries she's written, the one I'd like to share as a tribute (in the reply) is her wonderful book on Shakespeare's sonnets.

This is a funny meme.

This is a real "bring the war home" moment. Or to be more exact, "bring the occupation home"
And here’s Columbia’s website, boasting about the student radicalism of 1968 and promising that the university is “a far different place today.” It notes that the fallout of calling the cops on students “dogged Columbia for years.” How prescient. news.columbia.edu/content/new-pe…

When you are 6,000 words into writing an essay on the Red Tory tradition in Canada and then ask yourself who is going to read this.
This is a huge black eye not just for Toronto police (with officers lying in an attempt to frame a man for murder) but also all the politicians who supported this abuse of power.

A lot of social media discourse is an attempt to ignore the meaning of stories like this. cnn.com/2024/04/22/mid…
This really feels like 2003 again, with the people in power carrying out policies that are destructive to the world & also destructive of their own narrow self-interest, but hell-bent on doing so because they have an elaborate ideological system in place to shut out all criticism
I wonder who we should trust on this, the professionals in the State Department with decades of experience in the region or the political figures in the White House with obvious motivates for spinning a happy scenario?

Very principled stance. Unfortunately, Columbia's vicious mistreatment of its own students justifies a boycott.

Yep. This UAW breaking through the Southern anti-union wall is a huge event. Labor has been working on this project for literally decades, arguably going back to Operation Dixie of the late 1940s.

Though it's disturbing to see people double down in the aftermath + endorse actions of folks who clearly acted out of malice, bad faith, etc., it's heartwarming to see the responses of those who allow themselves to feel the depth of this loss and even regret their actions.
turning off replies here because there is some endless back and forth serving no one. This was a post about my personal regret about commenting on the situation at all, which I did, obliquely but with anger. There are better ways. Not a fine moment. Appalled by how it all went.
@mattyglesias W/ the "...bad actor here is Hamas for insisting on fighting to the last dead Palestinian baby..." line you're basically legitimizing Israeli's "surrender or we'll keep killing kids" strategy - which is a war crime in and of itself. x.com/adamjohnsonchi…
90% of tough guy pro-genocide replies are simply variations on advocating collective punishment. This is literally textbook collective punishment. “Surrender or we’ll keep slaughtering children” is why the concept of war crimes was invented in the first place. Just to be clear.
Schumer’s comment has to be understood less in terms of ending Israel’s war, ending US support for it, or unseating Bibi (none of which it will do) and more in terms of accelerating the polarization between liberal American Jews and people like this:
Chuck Schumer is a total disgrace. Not only isn't the man who says that Prime Minister Netanyahu isn't fit to lead Israel not fit to lead the Senate. He isn't fit to lead a synagogue's Men's Club. He deserves to be primaried by AOC. She's a more convincing anti-Semite.
@NYCGreenfield Who would say had mental health problems in the 1960s: the Buddhists and Quakers who immolated themselves to stop the Vietnam War or the policy makers in the Johnson & Nixon administration who murdered millions of people for no goddam good reason?
And Dave Bossie has withdrawn his resolution, I'm told.
Trump now says a resolution declaring him the presumptive nominee before he had actually gotten the delegates, which was proposed by his ally, isn't necessary.

One of the most positive things that happened in NY this week. So much potential here for a hugely consequential bilateral relationship.
Today, President Lula and I are proud to announce the Partnership for Workers' Rights. Both the President and I share a common vision where workers and their families are protected, empowered, and elevated in our economic policymaking. That's what our Partnership is about.
Here's the thing: Musk's turn towards explicit conspiratorial anti-Semitism has to be understood as stemming from the same basic space as EA's well-financed revival of eugenics in elite spaces.
