Director of Marketing at a company describes how the entire marketing team has been replaced by AI. He is the only person left of a 12 person team. This is INSANE.
Hmmmmmm could there maybe be a connection between antisemitism and misogyny 🤔
The interview with the consultants who recruited Platner is wiiiiild. Really feels like a parody. And imo a revealing indictment of the supporters who are still standing with Platner. Buying into a shallow aesthetic of populism at the cost of all else. These are the kind of people they trust.
The way @brianna.bsky.social feels empowered to do purity tests with other Jews is a direct reflection of the way many people treat pro-Israel non-Jews as more Jewish than progressive Jews. Doesn't matter if it's Jews or "allies" who do this, it's antisemitism. Shared toxicity is not allyship.
Wiiiiiild to see Dems melt down like this. Wild also that they would never do this over someone like Fetterman. Maybe a good reason to keep voting them out!
Perfect example of the dangers of elevating Tucker Carlson. It is beyond easy to be against this war without carrying water for the Iranian regime, a bloodthirsty, extremist, fascist regime subjugating its citizens. Carlson is trying to make them sound humane, a core goal of Iranian propaganda.
Wrote this to him last month. Looks like he did it again. Not sure if I’m still a big fan!
TMZ covering politics now unironically actually seems like the right move when the entire government is being run by reality show stars and Fox News personalities.
The ADL permanently sacrificed its reputation to get in good with a massively dangerous antisemite and white nationalist. They defended him and stood up for him even after his Nazi salute. Here's how he repays them. This is what happens when you think you're using bigots. They're always using you.
I looked up the word “Jews” on Instagram search. Here were the top results.
And this lack of fact checking and accountability leads to things like them citing a man who said this. It is this person's clip of Piker that is used to accuse him when he called a viewer a "pig dog." His clip is cited by Third Way in their op-ed, Ritchie Torres, and many others.
Brown people are being put in concentration camps. Activists are getting charged for acting on their first amendment rights. The FBI has named any form of left wing ideology terrorism. But abusers now face fewer sanctions than a brief moment it seemed they might. For Andreessen, this is freedom.
There is a lot wrong with this, but let's start with this: if you claim to be progressive, Jewish or not, antisemitism is indeed your problem. It hurts movements. It divides allies. It has people focusing on Jews instead of those actually responsible. Even if not for Jews' sakes, it's a problem!
This is... just wild. The claim is that if you are Jewish, you essentially *deserve* antisemitism directed at you. The reason? Enough Jews and institutions supported the genocide that it is... logical I guess... to assume you are pro-genocide unless you actively repute it. Just nonsense.
The broken logic here is striking, and it's just as fallacious as when Jewish feelings of fears of antisemitism are considered proof of a rise in antisemitism. This is Lapidot's own thoughts, not the people he imagines are thinking them. And then he uses it as his proof for his points.
Much of the Jewish left is naive about antisemitism, especially when they pin it only on Israel's actions (and here, "Jews"). Israel matters. So do weaponized accusations. But antisemites have spent a decade building a system, and Israel is one way they exploit it. This thinking erases that.
Your regular reminder that Israel does not literally control America, even if it has significant influence. Particularly true with Trump, whose entire personality is based off authoritarian control. Believing otherwise flies in the face of logic and evidence. And it is a conspiracy theory.
On Pod Save America, @booker.senate.gov admits that he hadn't even heard of Hasan Piker until a few days ago. This despite his claim he wouldn't appear on the show due to antisemitism concerns. His reason: his comms director showed him the "most outrageous" clips. Unbelievably irresponsible.
From a piece I wrote about how every death is not a "death" but a murder. And how the conditions have been purposefully created to cause massive suffering, including but not in any sense limited to systemic murder.
Sick stuff. And evidence that Jewish folks who target Muslims are actually far *more* likely to target their own than the other way around. When you start dividing the world into who deserves safety and who doesn't, you by nature will hurt those around you as well.
You may have heard of Jennifer Koonings (@_jenniferkings), a supposedly progressive influencer. She’s been spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories for a while now. But she is becoming more open. Using the phrase “noticing”, a far right phrase claiming to “notice” how Jews control the world.
This is why giving credit to Tucker Carlson is so dangerous. He sucks people in with his anti-Israel views & conspiracy theories. Then he sells them on his white nationalism (and also pushes them towards extremism with guests like Nick Fuentes). Then Musk amplifies. ht @maxberger.bsky.social
