Rutgers professor moving to Europe after threats over antifa accusations Mark Bray says threats intensified after a Turning Point USA petition accused him of promoting political violence

The attack on Mark is another stunt by right-wing grifters to victimize a random person in an effort to use MAGA fear mongering to justify their existence. It should go without saying we should do anything possible to support his family.

Journalism needs a new style guide for these times. As a start: if the basic material facts of the situation donโ€™t align whatsoever with the official claim, you donโ€™t have to repeat that claim. You are not mandated to cover the lies meant to obscure the facts, only the facts themselves.

From the Gaza Flotilla: โ€œIโ€™m Here Because My Jewish Heritage Demands Itโ€ I hope that fellow Jews will join me in redefining their approach to atonement and move toward courageous action to put an end to this horrific genocide.

From the #gazaflotilla, David Adler writes that โ€œwe are approaching interception at the onset of Yom Kippurโ€”our annual day of atonementโ€”which calls on us to reflect on our sins, and what can be done to repair them in the spirit of tikkun olam.โ€

Last week Trump announced plans to designate antifa as a โ€œmajor terrorist organization". Yesterday, Trump signed an executive order making that designation official. We know first-hand that nearly everything Trump says about antifa is wrong. Read our article:

Charlie Kirk was a divisive far-right podcaster. Why is he being rebranded as a national hero? Celebrating a bigoted rage-baiter sends a clear message to people of color, LGBTQ+ folks and women

"I feel no grief because these memorials to Kirk are not created for me to grieve. Instead, they seek not only to enshrine Kirk into the national consciousness, but also to foster national memories about what he represents ideologically and culturally."

Donald Trump has signaled that he is expanding his offensive against immigrants to target critics of his regime as well.

Everyone should read this guide spelling out concrete steps we can take to prepare.

Just to be clear, Charlie Kirk was a racist piece of shit, Israel is committing genocide in Occupied Palestine, and trans rights are human rights, and if a million people file ARDC complaints against me or send me death threats I will never recant any of those things.

I don't think pointing out the fascists' 'hypocrisy' is a good use of time. It's not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy. They actually do believe that they have the right and obligation to dominate you because they are superior to you. They are using their power not being hypocritical.

When Trump Took Over DC, NYT First Ignored, Then Belittled Protests Dismising the vibrant grassroots resistance to Trump's occupation of DC as โ€œonly a few scattered protests" is a distortion.

DC has seen an explosion of actions in response to Trumpโ€™s takeover. Dismissing the vibrant grassroots resistance to Trump's occupation as โ€œonly a few scattered protests" is a distortion that only serves to normalize authoritarianism.

The Responsibility of Intellectuals in the Age of Fascism and Genocide - Boston Review Speaking the truth and exposing lies is not enough.

In our new forum Robin D. G. Kelley revisits Noam Chomskyโ€™s argument on the responsibility of intellectuals, written as the Vietnam War was rapidly escalating.

His injunctionโ€”โ€œto speak the truth and to expose liesโ€โ€”remains a powerful call to conscience, Kelley argues. But today it feels incomplete.
