Students know that students, because they have a somewhat protected status compared to everyone else, have an obligation to stand up and speak up. It doesn’t look good when they get gassed and arrested and even killed (looking at you 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre) at protests. It’s our young people trying to stand up for what is right.
Abstract: The transition from hunting-gathering to agriculture stands as one of the most important dietary revolutions in human history. Yet, due to a scarcity of well-preserved human remains from Pleistocene sites, little is known about the dietary practices of pre-agricultural human groups. Here we present the isotopic...
My brother said Apple News does this too— you have the optional ability to subscribe to newspapers using it, but the subscription only content shows up in your feed even if you don’t subscribe. They have an option to block particular publications from your feed as well so he tried that to omit the articles he couldn’t access, but instead of actually removing them it leaves a blank square in that space in your feed saying that you’ve blocked the content. IDK what they’re thinking.
If I was in politics or was looking to get into politics in the future, I would be trying to get arrested publicly for this. Look at the people who got arrested during the civil rights movement.
I’m sick of random capitalisations mid sentence. I’m sick of common words being replaced by less common ones or even downright nonsense. I’m sick of it taking three attempts to successfully get the word I want. I swear it’s been like this for five years or more. Can we have a better version yet, or at least the old one...
Love how the narrative went from “nah those can’t be snipers definitely spotters” to “snipers are commonplace at big events!” once it was confirmed. Also the fact that only msn and snopes have published anything about this (or is that just a search indexing problem?).
The nazi party used a lot of euphemism surrounding their genocide plan and a lot of german citizens claimed afterwards they didn’t know the extent of it (davon haben wir nichts gewusst), but the antisemitism was immediately visible obviously what with the kidnapping. The camps—a bit less so, but a lot of historians feel they were more of an open secret than a secret. It was definitely less globally visible than what’s happening in Palestine though and the international community was justifiably outraged when they saw the extent and brutality of the camps.
I don’t think it’s envy for what the older generations have (“I wish I had that too”) so much as disgust at what they were/are willing to do to make and keep it (at politicians who don’t even intend well, at lobbying, at war mongering, at continued climate degradation, at racism, at the brutality of capitalism and the impact of it’s growth mandate, that some individuals have power way beyond their ability to take responsibility for their harm, etc).
I think the younger generations would be quite willing to adapt to things like high density housing, trimming back consumption, reducing meat intake, etc. in the name of balance with each other and the climate, but that would cause deflation and we can’t have that.
“I spent more than 12 hours reporting from the Gaza Solidarity Occupation at USC today. I didn’t see any antisemitism. What I did see was militarized police arrest pro-Palestinian students who were peacefully protesting,” stated Spectrum News journalist Jeremy Lindenfeld....

Active support of something totally morally unacceptable seems more morally culpable than refusing to participate. I don’t think most people are consequentialists—the how matters.
