Bluesky Do or Die
Genocides, war crimes, casualties, civilians, votes, dunks, debates, definitions, revolutions
Here’s some fun discussion of propaganda, history, psychology, war, genocide, ways we talk about genocide, ways we talk generally, ways we might vote, and whether we might revolt. In connection with Gaza and with the Twitter clone Bluesky.
1) From the river? To the sea? In this economy? The thing vs things nearby, ways we wander off, bullets to bite, reasons for revolution, and ridin' with Biden while genocin':
1:50 “I talked about that above” → #4 below
6:05 “one or two recordings up” → #7 below
2) Innocent Israel only gained land by winning defensive wars:
3) Conflating Hamas and Palestinians:
4) War crimes, evil assholes, stupid screaming, sad spirals, particular points, avenues for understanding, possibilities for persuading:
No Magic Words is the longer look at language and meaning that was mentioned. And the definition of genocide in the UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide is here.
5) Multiple meanings, civilian casualties, genocide in Gaza:
6) Were America’s crimes in the Middle East a genocide?
7) Should progressives and liberals and leftists vote for Joe Biden next November as a lesser evil compared to Trump? Even after all the support he’s given to all the brutality in Gaza?
