It's very simple. You don't get to warn about the danger of fascism in November - which, as I have said for years, is very real! - without challenging, rather than colluding with, fascist tendencies *right now*

Are we legally allowed to criticize Israel's minister of finance for calling for the "total annihilation" of the Palestinian city of Rafah and the Deir al-Balah and Nuseirat refugee camps, as he did on Monday? haaretz.com/israel-news/20…

Yep. Insane. Feel like I am losing my mind at the brazen double standards in front of our faces, on camera. The pure gaslighting. And not from Trumpists this time.

Unclear why some governments keep pushing for this mass surveillance approach rather than focusing on prevention of sexual abuse of children. 8/10
Detection of information in content prior to encryption cannot be reconciled with the essence of end-to-end encryption. Major risk for abuse by undemocratic regimes. 4/10
Europe is maybe two months from passing laws that end private communication as we know it, and folks are looking the other way (understandably.) You’re not going to get a do-over once these laws are passed.

stop blaming president joe biden for not doing anything about the police violence and funding the israeli occupation. he’s just a little guy, presidents are weak. plus don’t you understand if he loses trump will become president and have unlimited power
There’s this weird slippage people do where by “peaceful” they mean “lawful” but then they want to use MLK as an example and seem to forget where “letter from Birmingham Jail” was written from

I've written on political dissent & violent policing for 15 years, particularly in NYC. Compared to Tuesday night, I have never witnessed, at the scene of a protest, the use of police power so disproportionate to the type of demonstration taking place. theintercept.com/2024/05/01/nyc…
The First Amendment exists to prohibit the government from abridging speech that others disagree with or find disagreeable, as well as speech that others hate or find hateful.
There's been a long-standing, coordinated campaign to criminalize criticisms of Israel, and criminalize activism against its government, throughout the West. Congress always exploits various crises to seize more power. They're now using this moment to further those aims:

Where are the free speech warriors? Where are the Intellectual Dark Web folks? They spent a decade losing their minds over students renaming food in college cafeterias & now are totally fine with armed agents of the state coming on campus to assault unarmed nonviolent academics.

As the NYPD’s “strategic response group” leads the crackdown at Columbia I’m reminded how the SRG was originally pitched as an elite counterterror unit that would stop ISIS attacks. 9 yrs on they’re primarily used to spy on and arrest protestors and clear out homeless camps.
We interviewed Mike Johnson last year, a couple of months before he became Speaker. It was the day he grilled FBI Director Christopher Wray on spying and censorship abuses. Listen to what he told me: only to completely reverse himself and lead renewal of NSA/FBI spying powers:

Mike Rogers has made a career out of unlawfully spying on his community and your community — and he’d bring that same passion to the United States Senate if he had any chance of winning.

Two major changes: target detection based on risk and require more than one hit to reduce false positives will not have meaningful impact on protection of fundamental rights. 2/10
Message from President Minouche Shafik. Read the complete message: president.columbia.edu/news/message-p…
Democrat mayor stares blankly like an NPC as a protester begs her to give a single shit about what's going on.
Assaulted student confronts Boston Mayor Michelle Wu for backing the call for BPD and MA State Police to enter the Popular University Of Gaza at Emerson and enact a raid dressed in riot gear
Have been getting messages all night from human rights and press freedom advocates in other countries. They are in shock that these kinds of scenes could be unfolding here. I guess at some level they all still believed in this country’s exceptionalism.
What’s happening at Columbia will go down as a pivotal moment in U.S. student protest history. Yet Columbia, home to the Pulitzers and the Knight First Amendment, isn’t letting journalists, faculty, researchers in.
Here’s a useful Arabic proverb for this kind of hypocrisy: “He kills the victim, and marches in his funeral”
Today I met with families from Gaza. I heard the suffering that they and their loved ones continue to endure. Some killed or wounded, others displaced. We are working tirelessly to get more aid to people in Gaza and secure an immediate ceasefire and release of hostages.
Mass repression to protect a foreign country’s genocide. Our ruling classes are absolute psychos.
Absolutely insane footage of the NYPD entering Columbia University. It’s endless.
This is what the violence we're seeing on campuses is designed to defend.
Rafah is being decimated, there is nowhere else left to go. Israel is now bombing more than 1.7 million civilians trapped in Rafah, Gaza's last place of refuge. A massacre is happening in Rafah right now and the world is silent.
150 students occupied this hall for nearly three weeks in 1985 to protest South African apartheid and there was never this level of forceful police. But then again Afrikaaners didn’t have 86% of Congress voting to provide blank check support and obedient elite media support.
@CollinRugg @ScooterCasterNY In they go. Wild.
Iraq war protesters were smeared & hated in the moment. Same with Vietnam war protesters. Today anybody with a functioning brain realizes they were 100% correct & the conventional wisdom was dead wrong. The fact that people don't see this is exactly what's happening now is…
This is what happens when you sit on a lawn to protest a foreign government carrying out a genocide with full US support.
A line of NYPD police officer is waiting to enter the second floor of Columbia University's occupied Hamilton Hall.
In response, @Columbia has fully locked down campus. We can’t get in to offices, students can’t get in to take exams. It’s clear that Columbia’s own measures are doing the most to disrupt student life right now.
Columbia waking up to find that Gaza solidarity protestors have occupied Hamilton hall—as students did when protesting the war in Vietnam and Apartheid South Africa: columbiaspectator.com/news/2024/04/3…
The primary benefit of the sleazy White House gala the media throws itself, while drenching themselves in praise and awards, is it reveals their real function as servants of the royal court, so grateful for admission to Versaille. This year was one of the most revealing yet:
It's easy for the D.C. media class to denounce Russia imprisoning journalists...but these press advocates are silent when it comes to shaming the U.S. government and its allies for the same offense. No mention of #JulianAssange or #GonzaloLira at the WH Correspondents' Dinner:
It's been reported accurately that Jeremy and I have proposed that the board resign and turn management of it over to us. We're still hopeful that happens and really do believe it's in the best interests of the institution and its mission. x.com/ccdenman3/stat…
@ryangrim Ryan, what are your present thoughts on the Intercept’s ownership/management?
NEW: Border communities in Texas have purchased a technology that tracks people through their Bluetooth and WiFi signals. It can track you through your wireless earbuds. The product is called Trafficatch & it's integrated into license plate reader systems notus.org/technology/war…
The universities that stayed silent while lecturers were blown up are now nearly killing their own staff through police brutality. Solidarity to US colleagues and students. This isn’t democracy. It’s authoritarianism. It deserves our strongest condemnation as a global community
Shocking footage shows several officers at Washington University St. Louis beating a professor, slamming him, and dragging his limp body. SIUE history professor Steve Tamari is reportedly hospitalized with broken ribs and a broken hand. One doctor told him he's lucky to be alive.
America, home of the free. Where you will be accused of crimes for choosing not to design software the way the government wants you to design software:
Columbia still has its official website up lionizing the protesters of 1968 who occupied university buildings to protest the Vietnam War until the NYPD, in Columbia's own words, "stormed" campus, creating a "fallout that dogged Columbia for years." news.columbia.edu/content/new-pe…
