This DisInfo campaign against Signal is sooo stupid that the extent is actually overwhelming. Flood-the-zone effort.

The comment in the third screenshot is kind of perfect as a TL;DR

everything I hear and read about UCLA last week is totally surreal and terrifying lrb.co.uk/blog/2024/may/…

New: UT Austin’s Faculty Council voted in a meeting this morning on a resolution defending the First Amendment right to free speech on campus and a call for amnesty for pro-Palestinian protesters

The motion failed, with 24 voting no, 21 voting yes and 4 abstaining. More below:

“The Palestinians don’t get to choose whether or not they live this life. How unbackboned would I be if I just walked out when things got hard?”

Several arrested pro-Palestine student protesters from the past two weeks share their stories, from being arrested, to how they were…

This morning I would like to lift up the statement issued by UCLA students on the night of April 30. I am haunted by this line: “The university would rather see us dead than divest.” I want to remind us all of their demands, those for which our students have risked everything.

Such a touching image from Gaza. Ours is a small world. There should be a permanent ceasefire and we should end all wars. #Hookem ⁦UT Austin⁩

BREAKING: The Department of Education has announced that Columbia University University is under federal investigation for anti-Palestinian discrimination and harassment. Palestine Legal is representing four Palestinian students and Columbia UniversitySJP.

Now is the time to demonstrate our moral conscience. #UCLA students need support from the traumatic brutalization. Witnesses saw students shot w/rubber bullets & beat upon arrest. They need jail support. They need us to condemn the atrocities enacted against peaceful protests ♥️

same here. worth noting that i'm well-sourced beyond my place of employment and also always happy to talk book world too! i mentor journo students in my spare time and the work invigorates me, always happy to take more on - you all are vital.

literally crying in the club (my office)

🚨 Georgia State University, an institution with deep ties to Israel by way of the Georgia International Law Enforcement Exchange (GILEE) program, as well as to Cop City, is having graduating students wearing keffiyehs dragged off campus and is threatening to rescind degrees.

What smug fog do people live in? How is this a gotcha?

They’re covering their faces bc today, in 2024, facial rec systems exist that can easily ID them, IDs that are then used by coordinated actors (trustees funding moving billboards, etc) to doxx/violently intimidate them.

The way WKCR journalists are handling copaganda (insisting on confirmation and verification before repeating tropes and rumors) versus the way CNN is not only uncritically repeating police statements but marveling at their tactics is truly something to behold.

Absurd.

These arrests across campuses in the United States are happening *while* Biden is trying to prevent Netanyahu from being arrested for war crimes

'Student journalists will be arrested if they leave Pulitzer Hall' is quite a sentence to hear on WKCR-FM NY

If you've lost the Columbia WKCR stream via their website, it is still loud and clear here radio.net/s/wkcr
