politics

You'll have to excuse me posting about politics so much. Anyway, some stuff:
  • We should be clear that the people who heckled Kamala Harris at the Michigan rally and the members of the Uncommitted delegation who met with her prior are 2 different groups. Anyway, I'm not a fan of how she dismissed the protesters. There were more productive ways to deal with it, and no, none of it means they want Trump in the White House instead. Kamala is part of the Biden administration; she has Biden's ear, and she can influence him to change. So it's not an unreasonable ask for our country to commit to following US laws regarding use of weapons.
  • Especially in light of (SERIOUS TRIGGER WARNINGS) what's been revealed about what the IDF has been doing to Palestinian prisoners and Israelis rioting for their right to do it.
  • Anyway you can sign on to the Not Another Bomb petition here. Uncommitted's linktree.
  • I have some serious cognitive dissonance over Tim Walz's admirable championing of human rights in China, and his "unconditional support for Israel".
  • Seriously, I want to know what is the disconnect for all these politicians? That if people violate human rights in certain countries, it's morally reprehensible, but if Israel does it, it's always self-defense and morally justified? 
  • Interesting article on how Hollywood bigwigs are all in for Kamala Harris and are kind of fighting the techbro billionaires.
