I mean this sincerely: I think pro Israel people really need to begin internalizing that this is not a fringe opinion anymore and in fact is very statistically likely to be the average view of any brown Democratic candidate for office or any candidate under the age of 50

Just now on @Morning_Joe:
@AbdulElSayed was asked by @WillieGeist whether his critique of Israel is about @netanyahu or Israel itself. He made it clear his problem is with Israel. Lots of references to
"apartheid" and "genocide" that
"pre-date" BiBi.

Progressives have long tried to remind centrists that AIPAC is primarily funded by MAGA supporters and primarily spends against liberals and leftists alike in Democratic primaries. Now this crystalizes it even more.

An actually underrated potential positive for Dems in light of Abdul’s victory is that it gives traditionally centrist or otherwise poor Dems on Palestine on an easy out for polarizing against AIPAC and pro-Israel politics— they’re trying to cost Dems the Senate.

A big majority of Americans want the
U.S. government to stop sending American $$ to Israel's reckless regime and to end the war in Iran.
Yet AIPAC is threatening to spend to deliver the Republicans a critical Senate seat in Michigan, helping a Trump stooge like Mike Rogers who will keep funding Netanyahu's wars and do nothing to stop Trump's Iran War.
This is exactly why so many
Democrats like me have rejected
AIPAC.

Wolf Blitzer: Why is Israel, another country, your red line right now, this is what your critics are saying, rather than a domestic issue that impacts Americans' everyday lives? John Fetterman, visibly confused throughout the entire interview: Yeah, absolutely.

Smoking is making a comeback because we don’t have a surgeon general yet. Packs of cigarettes talking about “surgeon generals warning” girl WHOSE warning?

It's complicated. Posting before and afters & talking about how sick she looks can backfire because these are competitive mental illnesses. But the uncomfy truth no one wants to acknowledge is some people defend her in bad faith because they enjoy seeing thin, frail-looking white women.

not to be pop culture brained but it is kind of crazy how libfem shit is being weaponized against ppl who are like holy shit Ariana Grande is about to die. fellas is it anti-woman to express concern about the health of a woman and the high mortality rates of eating disorders

Abdul El-Sayed won the Michigan Democratic primary. Just posting this plainly for other west coast ppl waking up to a ton of headlines and posts about how he sort of actually really lost bc the polls were wrong about how much he would win by. Sweet Israeli dreams to Hayley Stevens.

Dwarf Fortress 53.16 is up. Another quality of life patch, this also fixes up some issues like invisible divine items and the one where a dwarf ordering a drink at a tavern with multiple staff would be served a drink by every staff member, sometimes resulting in acute alcohol poisoning.
