But we must not only dream of that world. We must continue to confront antisemitism with action. Action free from political agendas and the influence of those who use fear and pain to fuel more hate. Action instead is driven by the ways we know we can end antisemitism.

On this first night of and through every night of Hanukkah, Jews across the world will recount this horror, casting a shadow over our own celebrations. No one should be made to feel afraid as they practice their Jewish traditions.

So there is already an ai-generated whitewashing campaign to bury the name of the Muslim man, Ahmed al Ahmed, who disarmed one of the Bondi Beach shooters, and replace his identity with a white guy name and that’s why even a thimble of our potable water powering this tech is too fucking much.

The ACA isn't just "health care for people who don't have a conventional employer." It also disallows something that was incredibly common 20 years ago, which I fear is getting lost to generational memory: insurance companies could deny you health care for essentially any previous health problem.
I'm dubious about Amazon's commitment to keeping pre-existing conditions a thing of the past.

We saw the prototype of the Nero Doctrine with Twitter. The goal wasn't to make it profitable or "free." The goal was to break the one place where news broke faster than the state could spin it.
They bought the town square not to speak in it, but to burn it down so we’d have nowhere else to gather.

The unarmed man who ran towards the shooter, and grabbed his rifle was a Lebanese Muslim and an immigrant to Australia.
As Muslims are so often demonized, worth mentioning that it was a Muslim who rushed to save Jewish lives on Bondi Beach.

No, they specifically chose 8 Dems not up for reelection to end the government shutdown and side with republicans.
Meaning they are aware of mass calls to primary establishment Dems.

I don’t follow how ending the shutdown is a work around of the primary system, but we can’t recall federal elected offices.
It was debated at the Constitutional Convention and rejected.

I know that primarying Dems is the call to action for the moment, but why can’t we recall them too when they vote against their constituents wishes or ignore public outcry?
Their manipulation in ending the shutdown for a pinky promise shows them working around primaries.
