Charlie Kirk was an unarmed non-combatant and he was lethally targeted on the 10th of September 2025 on a university campus in Utah. His life ending with a long distance bullet to the neck in the USA.1
I am going to be completely morally consistent here.
So one thing we need to talk about is Zohran Mamdani recently saying he will now discourage the use of the phrase "Globalize the Intifada." on the 8th of September on MSNBC.1
So there was an article from Wired by journalist Taylor Lorenz about Democratic Influencers being funded by dark money on the 27th of August 20251 that has caused a mess online that doesn't seem to be going away. If you don't know what I'm talking about, then please skip this, you do not need to know, trust me.
I have always loved stories, and believe deeply in the power of narratives.
Which is why one of the most disheartening and repulsive things to me is the attempt to establish a dishonest and unjust narrative.
The argument in favour of Palestinian rights has been won in all but the most Zionist segments of American and American allied societies. The skyrocketing negative opinions of the State of Israel, and the fact that American politicians are starting to get called out in their town halls is proof of that. But as that happens...
The desire for justice is a core part of being human. I believe this fundamentally. It is why we feel it so deeply when we are treated unfairly & why we react so negatively when we see injustice done to another human being.
So to systematically inflict injustice on an entire people, first those people need to be removed from humanity, removed from the category of those who deserve justice.
You cannot suddenly and accidentally starve a people to death. It is a slow, premeditated and obvious evil.
There is no help coming for Palestine from the leaders of the American bloc of countries. And by the American bloc I mean their traditional allies like Canada, France, the UK. And the countries the US protects or props up like the Gulf countries, Egypt, and Jordan.
I never knew what 5th stage malnutrition was, in a reality where the world produces more than enough food for everyone on the planet1, I should never have to. But...
ContraPoints is a very successful creator of YouTube video essays that are critical of American politics and discourse from a progressive perspective. She has been silent on the genocide of the Palestinian people until about two weeks ago and while there are plenty of other commentators that have raked her comments over the coals. I want to pen my own thoughts down.
Also a Zio defended the concepts of ethno-states and I need to clarify my own thoughts there as well.
Finally AOC disappoints yet again.
