Blows my mind that some of the same journalists who see Trump as a want-to-be dictator at home are earnestly discussing the "challenges" for this same man to "bring democracy" to a country it just illegal invaded. Please grow up.

Whenever people want to justify the de facto single state reality of the occupied Palestinian territory I just show them maps like this and ask them what it means

If someone wishes you "happy holidays," it doesn't mean they hate Christmas. They're simply acknowledging that there are *many* sacred observances that take place this month, including the anniversary of Muntadhar al-Zaidi throwing a shoe at George W Bush on this date in 2008.

This is very good and contains a lot of appalling data and heart wrenching stories. I'm lucky enough to live in a country where your income doesn't determine your access to healthcare and there's nothing - nothing! - I fear more than the privatization of this particular sector.
I wrote about the coverage of the online reaction to the UnitedHealth CEO's death and how the media will always center those in power.
If you've watched a loved one suffer and die from insurance denial, it's normal to wish the people responsible would suffer the same fate.

Why "we" want insurance executives dead
No, that does not mean people should murder them. But if you've watched a loved one suffer and die from insurance denial, it's normal to wish the people responsible would suffer the same fate.

This is genuinely great from Gessen if only because it takes something pretty basic about anti-trans politics (it's part of a broader reproductive regime akin to the eugenics of fascist cults) and explains it to an audience still convinced this has anything to do with fairness in women's sports
