honestly not great for the whole “Jews control the world” conspiracy theory thing. this is going to do way more to increase antisemitism than any of the Palestine solidarity protests, obviously. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/05/16/business-leaders-chat-group-eric-adams-columbia-protesters/

i don't recall anything like this number of very public resignations over previous conflicts in which the US has been involved. maybe we should listen to these people. https://wapo.st/3JY4Cmy

it has come to my attention that deploying software is at least as challenging and interesting as writing software.

I wish people would stop linking to X as if we all have accounts and can see the full context and conversation surrounding any post. it’s pretty much a mess if you’re not logged in, I don’t understand why anyone is still using it as a place to announce important things.

We hear a lot about the “new ” but we should acknowledge that the old kind is incredibly prevalent on the pro-Israel side.

Most “Christian Zionists” think Jews are money-grubbing, Hollywood-controlling globalists and would lose their shit if their kid dated one.

@JoshuaHolland i'm old enough to remember when actual, literal Nazis showed up at CPAC and no one batted an eye (because it happened like three months ago). https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/nazis-mingle-openly-cpac-spreading-antisemitic-conspiracy-theories-fin-rcna140335

I feel like this kind of thing used to be shocking and now it happens all the time.

like, when the cops arrested Wesley Lowery in Ferguson it was a Big Deal, but now since the cops have realized there’s actually no legal penalty for arresting journalists (there isn’t, seriously), they do it pretty regularly.

lmao the first line of this story is "Judge finds Trump in contempt for 10th time"

one more time tho, and it's straight to jail, surely, he's absolutely serious this time, he'll do it, he swears.

btw i would love to know how common it is for a criminal defendant is found to be in contempt of court TEN TIMES but still not jailed.

Democrats all over the internet right now telling themselves that anyone who speaks out against Biden is a Russian opp.

genuinely preparing for a second Trump presidency. (if Trump lives 'til November, dude is looking rough) i've never seen such political head-assery as what the Democrats are doing right now.

peter,
@peter@thepit.social avatar

think about this: Biden has 100% thrown in with Netanyahu at this point. politically, he now owns whatever Israel does.

but Netanyahu doesn't want Biden to be president. he wants Trump to be president.

so now the worse the atrocities Israel commits, the better it is politically for Netanyahu because it will further erode Biden's base of support and bring Trump closer to a second term.

it's an incredibly perverse incentive.

the "October surprise" isn't going to be a surprise, it's going to be Israel committing some heinous atrocity and Biden has to stand there with his pants around his ankles looking like a fool and an accomplice a month before the vote.

“dissent must never lead to disorder.”

lmao jk that was Joe Biden on the student protests.

peter,
@peter@thepit.social avatar

watch the whole statement on the student protests, this genuinely could have come from any authoritarian leader on the wrong side of a protest movement.

this is the most shameful moment of the Biden administration. honestly will go down in history. I kind of can’t believe it.
