Disturbing but not surprising article about the purging of Jews who don’t fall in line at Jewish organizations, big and small. The only note I’d make is that these are not just anti-Zionists. Many are being cut out simply for showing they care for Palestinians and want a ceasefire.

A months-long investigation found even the smallest hints of dissent are often met with unemployment.

The day after Hurricane Helene hit, Buncombe County’s assistant emergency services director called the devastation “biblical.” The phrase has been widely repeated. While it’s understandable that a religious reference would resonate, we think it serves more to conceal than illuminate. 1/?

I have thoughts on guns as a Black southerner. It's deep in our culture to be armed against white supremacy, as well as for hunting. My relatives have always kept & used guns responsibly. That's entirely separate from the assault rifle industry & the white supremacist culture fueling mass shootings.

Those criticizing those celebrating implicitly assume that war has anything to do with morality. No fucking shit civilian deaths are tragic. But it is so goddamn tone-deaf to chastise peoples traumatized by generations of systemic violence for taking joy in seeing their oppressor get hit back.

I think the moment has arrived in the minds of some in Tel Aviv, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh and Washington that they are going to clean house by force in the region. Very dangerous moment.
