Oil and charcoal on canvas, abstract cubist bodies piled together. Description from MOMA site: "With its varying degrees of finish—you can see traces of charcoal and sections of blank canvas—and vast network of undulating lines and geometric shapes, Picasso seems to have obscured legibility in favor of generating a rhythmic abstraction. As if questioning the ability of painting to represent war, he created a shifting, spectral vision."

Picasso's depiction of a fascist massacre, a murdered family unceremoniously tangled together under a dining table.

[Pablo Picasso, The Charnel House, 1944-45]

tl;dr: more people should watch this gentleman's speech and think seriously about what he is saying

Has no one ever had a schoolyard fight? Has no one stood up for anyone, ever, in their poor, cowed, lives?

When our regime representatives start to rant about seeking vengeance on Iran for bombing embassies, where are the brave journalists who will ask: how is this vengeance when you began this campaign of blood? When you killed 55 little girls?

Those three downed jets run around $90 million each.

It cost $20 million a year to operate the food kitchens serving 816,000 people in Sudan.

OH MY GOD YOU ARE SO RIGHT

This annoys me to no end. I can count the number of times someone out of the classroom has made my students' lives better, and it's all been site people coordinating programs. Not, say...anything else.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

I can't fucking believe we're doing this again.

The Department of Education has hung a massive banner honoring a racist college dropout who built a lucrative career out of targeting professors for harassment

Thanks, RFK!

And this is not to disparage Booker T or Beecher -- I just see their misogynist, white supremacist logic.

While people are (rightfully) appalled by Kirk being on the dept of ed, given the other 2 "heroes" they chose, it makes sense.

Booker T championed Black businesses over challenging Jim Crow.

Beecher was an anti-suffragist who though women should be teachers and take care of children.

Kirk fits.

For my entire life, the people protesting US wars have always been ultimately vindicated and that being right is completely forgotten when the next war comes.

Agree! Signed this petition to get ChatGPT out of our California State University too: actionnetwork.org/petitions/ca...

This is one of the videos the NYT has verified and links to in their reporting.

NYT: "Video verified by [NYT] showed ... rescuers digging through the rubble with building cranes and shovels, and piles of bloodied, dusty backpacks."

Cover of The Brothers by Stephen Kinzer

Oh it's fascinating - highly recommend it

Oh man totally. I'm reading The Brothers by Steven Kinzer right now and realizing that they are so much worse than I thought they were even. Repulsive that they're not considered war criminals.

In some toasty corner of hell, the Dulles brothers are looking up at this and rubbing their bloody hands together and saying YESSSSSS

OCASIO-CORTEZ STATEMENT ON TRUMP'S COMBAT OPERATIONS IN IRAN "The American people are once again dragged into a war they did not want by a president who does not care about the long-term consequences of his actions. This war is unlawful. It is unnecessary. And it will be catastrophic. "Just this week, Iran and the United States were negotiating key measures that could have staved off war. The President walked away from these discussions and chose war instead.President Trump flippantly acknowledged the possibility of American casualties, stating "that often happens in war.' "Mr. President: this was not an inevitability. This is a deliberate choice of aggression when diplomacy and security were within reach. Stop lying to the American people. "Violence begets violence. We learned this lesson in Iraq. We learned this lesson in Afghanistan. And we are about to learn it again in Iran. Bombs have yet to create enduring democracies in the region and this will be no different. "In moments of war, our Constitution is unambiguous: Congress authorizes war. The President does not. I will do my part to uphold our Constitution by voting YES on Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie's War Powers Resolution. Every member of Congress must join us in rejecting this aimless war.

My statement on President Trump’s combat operations in Iran⬇️

Congress could stop all of this right now if it chose to act like a coequal branch instead of a little bitch

Americans aren't great at pattern recognition.

I am sure JD Vance will resign in protest, right?

This guy is dropping truth. Awesome man.

Why Attack Iran? Our Authoritarianism and Our Corruption

How to understand war with Iran? We must get away from propaganda. Facts suggest two interpretive frameworks: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the president of the United States.

“The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it.”

— Martin Luther King, Jr.

Honestly this is me too.
A sincere How ARE you is what I would like.

this is what they said it would be like under socialism
