The feud began last November when Owens tweeted that “no government anywhere has a right to commit a genocide.” Soon after, Shapiro publicly called Owens’ behavior “disgraceful”

Spoiler: she doesn't actually care about Palestinians, she's just anti-semitic.

Owens posted to X a series of Bible verses suggesting “you cannot serve both God and money.” That pointed remark was viewed by many as a not-so-subtle use of the antisemitic “dual loyalty” trope against Shapiro, who responded: “Candace, if you feel that taking money from The Daily Wire somehow comes between you and God, by all means quit.” Owens hit back that her boss was “utterly out of line” and “acting unprofessional and emotionally unhinged for weeks now.”

btw, pretty sure he couldn't fire her because the CEO wouldn't let him

Owens later liked a social-media post asking conservative rabbi Shmuley Boteach whether he is “drunk on Christian blood again” [and] defended Kanye West's remarks.

[She previously suggested] that 'secret Jewish gangs' control and perpetrate 'horrific acts' against people in Hollywood

love my Oma, she's turning 90 next week (born 1934!) and was the first person I came out as bi to. Defo hanging one or two of these up in my dorm

Whenever people imply communism = lack of incentive for human greatness, I think about how my grandparents had lower class parents and were extremely poor (even starving) in their post-war childhood, but ended up leading pretty impressive lives, despite knowing they wouldn't live much above the material reality of their neighbors for it.

My grandma was an interior architect and my grandpa an astrophysics professor and professional photographer. Both were gymnasts in their 20's (my grandpa has a couple medals below). They didn't do any of that shit for luxury, they figured they'd lead a modest life in the standard plattenblau housing block as the other working people of their town (small but cute and cozy apartment, I was there not too long ago), and that's what they wanted.

They never needed to drive a car in their lives, and often visited countries across the Eastern Bloc by bike/public transit. My grandma always had a thing for making fruit preserves and cool pottery (still killing it), and my grandpa for art from wood carving (he was also a mountain climber). They had a nice community garden they always tended to too. It's a beautiful town with a lot to see, honestly can't wait to visit again

My mom was 19 when the Berlin Wall fell. She studied english abroad when everything went to shit under capitalism. Ended up moving to the US just because she met my dad. Usually when she tells an American she grew up in the DDR, they look all shocked and ask some insane shit like if she was starving to death, or if she knew anyone who was shot and killed trying to climb the wall (💀⁉️). Certainly no one was starving by the 70s/80s. My mom and all her friends and acquaintances had great childhoods. She had a small town, middle of nowhere school system that pushed sports, music, art, multilingualism, sciences, etc. on her heavily (when I did track and field in high school she always told me how her school's facility was 10x better lmao). The DDR fostered genuine human greatness. But ig they didn't have bananas at grocery stores and a hundred car brands like the west 🤷‍♂️

Hunger Games is about revolutionary anti-imperial class struggle

George Lucas said the Empire is inspired by America and the Rebels by the Viet Minh

The Matrix was created by a trans woman and at least partly an allegory for being trans

Divergent is shitty lib fanfiction but very obviously anti-conservative

Alan Moore was a communist or anarchist

wow these movies are just like January 6th when we resisted communism by smearing our shit on the capitol walls!! so-true biaoqing-copium

Heard My Chemical Romance was created after witnessing 9/11, so I looked up the band's political beliefs and came across this thread about Frank Iero

he's literally so confusing. remember a few years ago when he had a 'don't tread on me flag' on his basement wall? he also was totally voting for bernie sanders. ... when blm movement got its biggest attention in 2020 he published some shitty depoliticizing note. its one of the worst notes i've read back then

He's definitely not a right winger. Maybe moderate leftist. Not everyone needs to fit into a neat little box.

He is an "Italian American" style leftist from NJ. Definitely socially progressive and left of center on social issues, but still sees value in some traditions. It makes sense if you know anyone from New Jersey

Hundreds of anti-Zionist Jews and allies just took over NBC’s famed 30 Rockefeller Center headquarters in NYC to disrupt President Biden’s appearance on @LateNightSeth

Let's search "Jew" and "Jewish" and see the type of comments he actually made:

brainwashed Zionist logic, which is: Israel the state = the Israeli population, and the Israeli population = the Jewish people. This is racist ethnonationalist logic. Israel is a state, not a people.

[Goblins of Harry Potter] are based on antisemitic stereotypes.

Illuminati conspiracy theorism is closely linked to antisemitism (“Illuminati” is basically a euphemism for “the Jewish Cabal”), so the idea that they are deeply involved with the hip hop industry is essentially just a cocktail of antisemitist and anti-Black racism

[Conspiracy subs] lack class-based analysis and it keeps them stuck in a hall of mirrors (until the fashies come along and start steering them towards the Jews and the queers)

After a terrorist threat against Jewish people in his city:

Is there anything non-Jewish people can do? Are there any events planned or something to show solidarity?

Is there anything non-Jewish residents can do to help??

Under a Bakunin post:

I do not buy the "his faults were common for his time" apologia, in any circumstance. ... It doesn't matter if 100% of the people in a given society were antisemitic; they should all be consigned to the dust bin of history and none of them memed. If they wrote some nice things, we can read them critically, take the ideas, and leave the rest. ... This guy saw Jewish people as a threat to the rest of humanity. For those who are directly threatened by those views, and for those who care about them, this meme, uh, doesn't exactly hit the same. By posting this picture, you disregard their perspective, and make the space less comfortable and less safe for them. You marginalize them.

Yeah it's definitely way higher than 0.02% of LA that's homeless, a quick google search finds the official 2023 number was 1.2% of the city's population, 60x higher than the number this dipshit pulled out of their ass

Realistically, it's even higher considering the way the government measures homelessness across the country is absurd and pretty much guaranteed to dramatically undercount

Biden, 81, recalled a 2021 conversation with world leaders regarding the Jan. 6 riots:

“And then Helmut Kohl turned to me and said, ‘What would you say, Mr. President, if you picked up the London Times and learned that 1,000 people had broken down the doors of the British parliament, killed some bobbies on the way in, to deny the prime minister to take office?"

Kohl served as Germany’s chancellor from 1982 to 1998 and died in 2017. Merkel was the country’s leader at the time of Biden’s conversation.

(He made this same mistake twice in the same meeting)

Earlier this week, Biden confused French President Emmanuel Macron with late President François Mitterrand—who led the country from 1981 to 1995 and died in 1996

Biden claimed he declared “America is back” in 2021, and “Mitterrand from Germany — I mean France — looked at me and said, ‘How long you back for?’”

28% of Gen Z adults identify as LGBTQ

Over 70% of that 28% say they've faced homophobic discrimination or hostility

4% of boomers and 4% of silent generation identify as LGBTQ

Liberals: "why won't the gayest generation vote for my flavor of geriatric homophobes?"

Rookie numbers, in the US there's no limit. My company can legally give me a 28 hour shift, and if I worked in a red state they wouldn't be required to give me a single 30 minute break either

There's certainly a larger anti-zionist crowd on the app, but western tiktok is 100% still run by neoliberal ghouls

I've reported blatantly fascist stuff on the platform before; a comment saying race mixing is immoral, a comment saying desegregation ruined America, a video saying Gaza should be turned into a parking lot, and I've ALWAYS ended up getting the "we've reviewed your report and found no violation" thing. Exact same shit I've gotten with Instagram, Reddit, and pre-Musk Twitter

Meanwhile today I commented this at a The Strokes fan with an Israeli flag in their name, and fully ratio'd them before getting this notification a few hours later:

Super bittersweet and really great main characters, defo recommended seeing in theaters. Looks and sounds like it was made in the 90s. Might be my new favorite Christmas movie (haven't seen many tho tbh)

I know I linked the trailer but it kinda gives stuff away tbh I liked going in blindly

The Telegraph is the only one reporting this, we're supposed to believe a sensationalist conservative tabloid?
