Lily Sánchez Nathan J Robinson Such a great, fun read!

Maybe my most important radar in a long time.

Maybe you can ask him about the mass graves

Think about how fast this country sent hordes of riot police with tear gas, batons, and tasers to arrest anti-war students & their teachers.
Now think about every medical bill you've paid, every homeless person you've seen, every school that relies on bake sales to buy supplies.

In light of Greg Abbott terrorizing protesting college students, you should learn about the many many other horrific things he’s done in Texas for decades

Dear young people:

You can’t buy a home.
You can’t have healthcare.
You can’t afford rent.
You can’t afford food.
Covid? Get back to work!
You can’t complain.
You can’t post videos.
You can’t protest.

#VoteBlue to protect your rights!!

“Five freedom seekers from Louisiana completed a treacherous 400-mile journey to safety in San Antonio, which was part of Mexico at the time. The Mexican Army protected the men by opening fire on the slave catchers pursing them.”⁠ l8r.it/zul5

fun but also maddening piece to write with Alex Skopic and Nathan J Robinson . In the topsy-turvy world of The Ethicist, going into corporate law is a good thing!
Calling the cops and ICE on people is good! And property is sacred.

It’s hard not to question the morality of those who express more horror at student protests against this war than at the war itself.

Of all things to ban... 😤

How about a bill banning private insurance and replacing it with Medicare For All if it can’t expand services to all and make healthcare services & drug prices affordable in the next 12 months? Sign that.

The NYT should only publish pro-abortion editorials, but it should make sure that they accurately represent the anti-abortion position.

There is just no excuse for publishing material that is misleading as well as morally reprehensible.

I guess I would just personally have a really hard time posing and smiling with someone who is killing so many Palestinian children. I couldn't do it and I feel like anyone who could has a piece of their soul missing?

i guess 'no selfies with genocidaires' is a controversial principle among progressives?

I appreciate every tweet, chant, sign, and speech calling for a free Palestine and for an end to colonialism everywhere.

But as I wrote in Current Affairs, that decolonial and liberational fervor must extend to the United States' own colony: Puerto Rico. currentaffairs.org/2024/04/the-ca…

My colleagues and I have co-written an article analyzing the values of the The New York Times' garbage ethics column, 'The Ethicist' currentaffairs.org/2024/04/the-bo…

Bernie’s strategy of hugging Biden while publicly expressing frustration is working about as well as Biden’s strategy of hugging Netanyahu while publicly expressing frustration
