The UN is extremely cautious about declaring famine. Places where lots of people are dying of hunger are routinely characterized as “on the brink” of famine for ages. So when they say w/out hesitation that “there is famine, full-blown famine” in Gaza, it means it’s very, very bad

I keep thinking about these ducks. There is something real and important about non human animals being welcome and comfortable in a human space ....The police setting off flashbangs all night would be tortuous to birds ... and ofc the destruction of all life systems in Gaza

Personally if I believed democracy was in immediate danger of ceasing to exist I wouldn’t be trying to throw billions at the forces who will make it cease

This same sort of line was used during the anti-Aparthied protests against South Africa.

Student affairs just delivered a message to USC’s Gaza Solidarity Occupation that they need to take down their encampment. No deadline was given, but folks here believe a sweep is coming later tonight.

Is this normal

Slay the students and raze the schools: American pro-Israel politics enters its Pol Pot phase.

Yesterday morning, I was suspended and evicted AGAIN after one week of being unsuspended — this time for being arrested OUTSIDE Columbia’s gates. I was arrested and subsequently brutalized bc I was recording the pigs & they didn’t want people seeing what they were doing to us.

Lest we forget why students are protesting. 1.5 million displaced civilians are under attack. Most are living in tents.

They know what it is, they just don’t care. Who is gonna stop them? What significant consequences will they face? They have the backing of local police all the way to the Biden administration.

THREAD. Last night, the White House quietly sent out a press release notifying reporters that Biden would be seeking $37 billion for, among other things, 100,000 new cops. This is one of the most dangerous developments imaginable.
