FOR FUCK'S SAKE.

If you want the best for Palestinians and especially the residents of Gaza, do not violently attacks DC cops. This will not help anything.

Ending the violence means ACTUALLY ENDING FUCKING VIOLENCE.

I am so heartbroken by what has happened in Israel, yes. But I am also heartbroken by what has happened in Gaza. Of course I want the humanly possible best for the people in Gaza -- including just trials with proportionate and justifiable sentences for those convicted of crimes, because justice is part of the best humans can create -- but we don't get there by attacking cops.

I'm the first to say that policing is fucked up in this country, but we don't make things better by attacking cops. And I'm the first to admit that ALL THE THINGS are fucked up in Israel and Palestine, but we don't make things better by attacking cops.

Or Jews.

Or Arabs you think are Palestinians.

Or Sikhs you think are Muslim.

Or actual Palestinians, even if they're Christians, even if they're Muslim, even if they're atheist, even if they once voted for Hamas 16 years ago.

Or anyone.

STOP BREAKING MY FUCKING HEART.

ENDING VIOLENCE MEANS ENDING VIOLENCE.

>> She also said that she would pull us out of the World Health Organization, so that’s insane. <<

You know what we don't want to do? We don't want to stop viruses from spreading all through the developed world until even the rich Ecuadorians and Indonesians are getting it, because then the rich will flee their virus-laden hellscapes and travel internationally, which allows the USA to acquire a virus for free that we otherwise would have had to pay a Wuhan lab to genetically engineer.

I swear, her presidency is going to be so economically efficient we'll fucking break Pareto.
