This further supports my thought that Minnesota is probably among the better states in the US to live in right now (other places that are similarly not as reactionary are more expensive).

Just another example of chuds living completely in their own reality, totally untethered to actual reality.

Ask these people what a “toxin” is and they won’t be able to say much other than “bad thing”, despite the fact “toxin” does mean something specific.

It’s worth remembering that you can read all about the horrors the IOF has inflicted on Gaza; or see photos and videos of Palestinian children suffering in ways that will haunt you for the rest of your life… and you can know that the US military did all that and more many times over to the people of Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia.

If his head was pointed just a little more forward it would definitely be a Kubrick Stare.

I have seen them. It’s important to know what’s really happening but I have days I wish I could just lobotomize myself and not remember anything about what’s happened to people in Gaza.

Israel allows the US to play “good cop / bad cop” with the rest of the region. Israel is willing to do what the US can’t / won’t do (due to diplomatic and domestic reasons). If you try to go against US interests, Israel is there to make your life hell until you relent. Israel has zero compunction about bombing, slaughtering civilians, assassinating leaders, etc. But bend the knee to the US and then you can be Israel’s “friend” too.

I can certainly see that and you might not be wrong.

But I also know that photo journalism can be an incredibly powerful medium. Maybe the award itself is BS but we can still recognize the power of that image.

Isra Hirsi (Ilhan Omar’s daughter) was just suspended from Columbia for being part of the pro-Palestine protest.
