Birthday greetings to one of my favorite #StarTrek characters. Lt. Sulu, played by actor #GeorgeTakei. In addition to acting, he's been a dedicated civil rights activist, most notably for #LBGTQ-2 protections and Japanese-American restitution during WWII.
Live long and prosper!

Il secondo profilo più seguito di mastodon, dopo l'account ufficiale "mastodon", è quello di George Takei, il Sulu di Star Treck :startrek: :enterprise:
The Israeli government has cut off food, water, and fuel to 2 million people inside Gaza as part of its campaign to stamp out Hamas terrorism. Collective punishment is not only contrary to international law, it is inhumane and illogical. It is what my community once endured in World War II, all because of the actions of others who happened to share our ethnicity. Have we learned nothing? How will this possibly help deescalate the violence rather than radicalize many more? It is madness.
@baruch I can't speak for #GeorgeTakei , but I'm pretty certain that's not what he said. I know it's not what I said.
So tell me, how is cutting off food, water, and fuel to 2 million non combatants defense? What does that solve? What's the end goal?
That's not warfare, or proportional, it's just vindictive punishment.
Israel has every right and justification to go after Hamas, and they should.
But the Palestinian people aren't Hamas.
Watching the original #TheTakingOfPelham123 and it starts off with horrendous racism via a "comedy" bit with a group of visiting Japanese dignitaries.
This was so common back then, it makes me appreciate Sulu from the original #StarTrek even more. He was never an ethnic comedy prop and his character debuted eight years before this film came out.

🥥 The clip to which Mr #GeorgeTakei has linked shows Rep. #NancyMace (R-SC) questioning Mr #DavidGrusch during a Congressional hearing about #UFOs.
As a tanned and virile pair of American testicles, I would have tapped that prior to her throwing away all her credibility for her whackadoodle colleagues on the rabidly right #GOP.
That's all I've got for now. 🥥
Stop blaming strikes for economic damage. Strikes are a logical response to overreach and greed from corporations and the wealthy. If there is resulting economic damage, look to those who drove the workers to strike in the first instance.
@georgetakei
🥥 I don't know why, but I feel like this toot from #GeorgeTakei is a good place to casually drop the hashtag #GeneralStrike. Just saying. 🥥

My Great-Grandmother never said her nose was runny.
She always said "Oh, my nose is loose"... in the voice of #Sulu/ #GeorgeTakei even though she had never seen #StarTrek
