The "American League for a Free Palestine" in 1946 staged a Broadway play raising 💰 for Zionists to fight the British & pressure the US, all necessary bc neither wanted Israel happening ofc. It partnered w the NAACP to make it an integration campaign too.

@ONEBIGMONSTER_ @TrueSlazac @Ze_Highlander @SxarletRed take the L on this one. It's highly collectivist in the sense that the common good of the in-group and what traditionally binds them together is so important, neither any individual's preferences within it nor anything having to do with anyone in the out-group matters.

And ftr, "Capitalism the merger of corporate and state power" ie "Capitalism is fascist" is just something A Fascist said to avoid admitting what it really is, and then Marxists repeated once Fascism got a bad rep to make capitalism look bad.

@NateSilver538 It's not the social distance I find myself loathe to let go of, it's the *pace* of life, it's the *appreciation* for routine service, and the *understanding* that a lot of how we furiously occupy ourselves is not very essential.

@thismuchnow @PenguinLiberat2 @rabid_raviv The compulsory uncompensated labor was the point of the slavery, while the pain and death were incidental. Extermination itself was the point of the Holocaust. This isn't the Olympics tho, "unique" doesn't mean "worst" in every way nor that nothing else is also unique

As a landlord, it took me until this morning to figure out how April rent is CLEARLY on us. And the earlier tenants know about it, the easier for them to budget & maybe pay it forward. Everything's closing & hurting. If we're the only ones making bank, we'll wind up in stockades
