Right now British white supremacists nationwide are stabbing, arsoning, & looting Muslims & immigrants—& virtual silence from world leaders. Where are the public statements of condemnations & gestures of solidarity? Islamophobia remains a globally acceptable form of bigotry.😐
With news today that the stock market is down, and MAGAs capitalizing on it to allege the Biden economy is bad, your PSA that the stock market is not the economy. The top 10% own 93% of stocks in America. Meanwhile, 78% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, 27% of Americans are house poor, & USA has the worst wealth & income inequality in developed nations. Stop letting stocks be a measure of economic health & start demanding economic justice for all people in this country.
Walz vs Shapiro is a major contrast Walz was a public school teacher Shapiro is pro vouchers Walz raised corporate taxes Shapiro is pro corp tax cuts Walz is anti-fracking Shapiro is pro fracking Walz rejects MAGA money Shapiro took $100K from Yass Walz is the best VP pick👍🏽
Watching Imane Khelif's father embrace his daughter to elevate her and praise her (and without resorting to anti-trans fearmongering btw) has been a breath of fresh air during these Olympics. He's lifting Imane up without tearing anyone else down. That's fatherhood. That's love.
Haaretz cites U.S. Official to report that Biden Realized Netanyahu Lied to Him About Hostage Deal Everyone knows Netanyahu is a liar. It's who he has always been. He lied to invade Iraq. He lied to break up the Iran nuclear deal. He's lying now about the hostage deal. STOP FUNDING HIM. STOP THE GENOCIDE. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2024-08-03/ty-article/.premium/u-s-official-biden-realized-netanyahu-lied-to-him-about-hostage-deal/00000191-19c0-d051-a3f7-d9cc68ce0000
WW tears are so powerful that Angela Carini will get $50K Olympic prize money for dropping out of her bout against Imane Khelif after 46 seconds. "I couldn't look at her tears" Int'l Boxing Assoc President Kremlev said. Khelif gets demonized. Carini gets paid. What a world.
Paris Olympics have: •Russian athletes competing despite Russia invading Ukraine •Israeli athletes competing despite Israel committing genocide of Palestinians •A Dutch athlete competing despite being a literal child rapist But the most hate by far is reserved for an Algerian Muslim woman because she committed the crime of being good at boxing 😐
The MAGA Trump attacks on Kamala Harris's identity are not only overt racism, they're a revival of a deep historical right wing hypocrisy. And worse, legacy media continues to let racists off the hook. Here's how we respond & protect our democracy:
MAGA Racism & Media Failures
The attacks on Kamala Harris's race revive a tired racist strategy, and we need to call it out
Nimarata Nikki Randhawa ran as Nikki Haley Piyush Jindal ran as Bobby Jindal Raphael Cruz ran as Ted Cruz Meanwhile—Barack Obama ran as Barack Obama & Kamala Harris is running as Kamala Harris & MAGAs accuse Dems of identity politics Every MAGA accusation is a confession
Great that journalist Evan Gershkovich has been released from Russia. And to keep it 100, I find it revolting that so many who have not said one word about the 160+ journalists killed by Netanyahu, or condemned his ban on journalism—now extol the virtues of a free press. Racism, hypocrisy, & cowardice. Selective activism is a cancer on society.
