I have a whole furious rant about some what some recent games’s proposed fantasies really are despite wearing a progressive coat

but if I speak I am in trouble

Genuinely I think she (very cleverly) went to Reddit with the belief that most people agree with her and Twitter is just overly loud. A lot of the replies fall into line perfectly so it’s like she has a whole thread to point to and be like “see?”

Are there actual Palestinians in the superman film or is it mostly a vague gesture, I have not seen it and cannot imagine it non-cynically

I guess I want to add for context that I used to be a fan actually. Some of those early videos were very personally helpful to me, which is part of why this hurts so much. However, I won’t waste energy on mourning this - ultimately, it’s not my fault that the creators I trusted weren’t who I thought

It confounds me because I truly believe our liberations are interconnected. As someone not in Gaza, what possible doom or resentment do you have a right to feel to this situation?

It is genuinely tragic to me that white marginalized individuals keep showing time and time again that they champion the rights of and can comprehend, in theory, the issues of almost every other intersectionality except when you’re Palestinian. I can see your humanity and you can’t see mine

If Palestinians or our issues make you uncomfortable you are simply a racist and don’t have space in any kind of “radical” politic. Go be Jake tapper or something.

“Palestinians being alive and upset at being annihilated are ruining the vibes…maybe if they died quietly I can go back to the good old days when I didn’t have to feel complicit or had. Maybe they deserve it for bothering me?” - ultimately the argument Contrapoints and her supporters are making here

Very much also understand how the absolute overwhelming majority of breadtube failing the Palestine morality test can create such feelings of betrayal and disappointment. At this point I’d argue we’re ready to leave the “breadtube” as a good moral signifier behind

I think that’s fair, love Shaun ❤️

She did WHAT

When you do CIA-levels of destroying revolutionary morale but with good lighting 💜✨ slay

Contrapoints comments on leftists picking up another “lost cause” in the case of Palestine is so disgusting that I’m starting to understand why she spotlights so many hours on the concept of leftist infighting…it’s all just aesthetic tone policing at the end of the day. Delete ur channel please

Thank you for speaking up on this. Very much needed in the sea of silent cowardice

Yeah dude people love it when nonwhite folks win awards, they’re terrified of not handing us awards even

That book is waiting for whenever you’re landed, settled, and ready ❤️

Kind of a joke kind of not. I’ve been watching the HThree thing unfolding and have been thinking about it since 2016. I kind of want to write about it, especially in the terms of what it was like from the Palestinian lens, how it mirrors everything honestly. Is this of interest, or is it over?

Thank you so much for the thoughtful and thorough words, I really appreciate it :)

Kendrick Lamar Is Not Your Savior His halftime set did little more than underline his beef with Drake.

i wrote about kendrick's super bowl halftime show and the gestures it did make and was never going to make, and what we use the super bowl halftime show for even www.vulture.com/article/kend...

Are things bad? Obviously. It’s not because of Palestinians, it’s because Kamala fucked up on every demographic and point possible. You shoving decimation in our faces like “oh look now you deserve what’s coming” is so disgusting as Gazans return home to bury loved ones.

Respectfully, everyone I know who keeps saying that “see, now trump is worse for Palestine, you idiots cost us the election!” Never speak to me again, please. It’s clear that you weren’t listening to Palestinians anyway, who keep explaining this is business as usual, just different framing

Fuck off
