For anyone still “standing with Israel” or trying to inject false nuance into the Israeli genocide of Palestine, this thread is for you. These are the things you won’t be shown on the western news. Look at them now. It’s not too late to adjust your perspective.

I am gathering a list of all the "reporters" who are claiming the story about the beheaded babies is true. If this turns out to be false, and it gets reported a year from now when it served its purpose, I will never, ever stop reminding you of who spread this lie. We will see.

a little known fact is that the intentional violation of a constitutional right by a police officer is a federal felony. the vast majority of federal prosecutors have never charged a single cop with this offense.

Happy Birthday to the great Che Guevara "Che Guevara's life is an inspiration for all those who love freedom." Mandela "Che was the most complete human being of our age." Sartre "I am not a liberator. Liberators do not exist. It exists when people liberate themselves." Che

just got the first Community Notes censorship on a post of mine, and it's a complete lie. As the NYT and the Huffpost article say, the claim about the 11-year old boy being arrested for "disruption" was contested, and the case was closed. They're now just laundering police lies

THREAD. The toxic air around us provides an essential opportunity to notice how the news reports about health and safety. Did you know that 10 million people die every year from air pollution alone, and 100,000 in the U.S. That's 5 times the number of homicides in the U.S.

My biggest pet peeve as a trans filmmaker and cinephile is the suppression of our history in the medium. Trans cinema has been around forever and there is a beautiful and essential lineage to work like what I'm doing in my new movie. Look at this SOV flick from THIRTY YEARS AGO!

Lula just welcomed Maduro to Brazil and normalized relations, as liberals and conservative creeps cry hysterically because their CIA-fascist regime change efforts in Venezuela failed miserably

in 1995 Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola helped restore and re-released "I Am Cuba" by brilliant Soviet filmmaker Mikhail Kalatozov. Castro and Che Guevara also advised on the film. Scorsese considers it a masterpiece of cinema, and this famous continuous shot shows why:

Happy Birthday to the great Malcolm X, whose words are as important today as when he first spoke them. THREAD WITH CLIPS

Kitty Genovese did not die alone. She died in the arms of a friend who risked her own life to rescue her. A friend who cradled Kitty in her arms as she bled out, whispering in her ear to comfort her. "I only hope that she knew it was me, that she wasn’t alone," - Sophia Farrar.

That, right there, is a heartbreaking and queer story to the core. It's a tragic tale of love, family, and community support. Which makes it all the more disgusting that the mass media version of the story not only erases all of that, but claims it's the exact opposite.

The fictional story assumes that cops would have intervened if they'd been summoned, which is counterfactual: the cops *were* called, multiple times, and they simply decided not to.

One important detail that's often forgotten in modern retellings of this story: "calling the cops" did not mean calling 911 at that time, because 911 DID NOT EXIST IN 1964. In fact, Kitty Genovese's murder was the catalyst that motivated NYC (and the country) to set up 911.

There weren't 38 witnesses to Kitty Genovese's murder, by *any* definition of "witness". Most who heard it had no reason to believe a murder was taking place. And of those that did, multiple people did call the cops! The problem is that THE COPS IGNORED THE CALLS.

Thinking a lot today about Kitty Genovese, a lesbian from Brooklyn, whose brutal and senseless murder by a stranger was twisted and exploited to push a racist, anti-urbanist, and factually-incorrect narrative that has shaped the last 50+ years of American history. ❤️🧡🤍💜
