Okay, but this is seriously funny.

Gotcha. Thank you for taking the time to explain it to me.

Wasn’t this specifically against Harris? I get why they were against Harris, I just don’t know why they were only “Abandon Harris” instead of abandoning the whole process or what have you.

I wasn’t trying to be flippant, I guess I saw it as “Churchill and Truman can’t decide whether Poland surrenders, that’s up to the polish people” and then for people to be mad only at Churchill.

It seemed like they were saying it’s under no one’s control outside of the Palestinians, but were still saying it was ___'s fault. Sorry that I misunderstood.

“Over the past 16 months, the Biden-Harris administration’s full, unobstructed support for Israel’s campaign of genocide and ethnic cleansing has failed to remove the Palestinians of Gaza from their land,” Hudhayfah Ahmad, a spokesperson for the Muslim-American led Abandon Harris campaign, said in a statement to Newsweek.

“It is not Trump—just as it was not Biden or Harris—who decides what the Palestinians can or cannot do; that decision belongs solely to the people of Palestine.”

What? If it’s not Trump, nor Biden, nor Harris who decides, why was only Harris punished for it?

Japan’s #MeToo movement has been “building up slowly”, says Miura Mari of Sophia University in Tokyo. In 2017 Ito Shiori, a freelance journalist, accused a reporter and the biographer of then-prime minister Abe Shinzo, of rape. Her criminal case was dismissed, but she won damages in a civil lawsuit. “Black Box Diaries”, her film chronicling the episode, became the first Japanese documentary to be nominated for an Oscar last month (though there is no release date for it in Japan). Her case proved controversial and sparked nationwide conversations. According to surveys, only 5-10% of people report assaults to the police in Japan, compared with 23% in America. Demonstrations also started in 2019 after four rape acquittals were handed down by the courts in quick succession.

Surprised it took them so long to be honest. Women have been treated terribly in Japan for ages, even more so as the population decreased (because that’s women’s fault I guess).

I like that the crisis is “a bunch of powerful people that run the country/media are rapists. I mean, we knew that part, but now we have to do something. Who will host our TV shows!?”

The “pager attack” killed 42 people, including two children and two healthcare workers, while wounding another 2,800 people. The attacks targeted public areas, including cars, streets, and supermarkets, and many of the wounded suffered eye, hand, and brain injuries. Many survivors needed surgery, and some victims went blind or had to have their limbs amputated. One of the attacks killed an 11-year-old boy and an 8-year-old girl, along with a nurse. At a funeral for some victims, another electronic device attack was carried out by Israel, wounding more people. It’s unknown how many Hezbollah operatives the attack actually killed.

“That was a great operation,” Trump reportedly told Netanyahu, after being given the morbid gift.

I can not believe this man was voted in. I can not believe this time line is real.

That’s because she’s actually trying to help people, and you don’t get rich helping people.

During Robert F Kennedy Jr’s Senate confirmation hearing on 30 January, Angela Alsobrooks, a Democratic senator from Maryland, pressed the nominee on his past claims that Black people have a stronger immune system than white people and thereby, should receive vaccines on a different schedule than them. “What different vaccine schedule would you say I should have received?” Alsobrooks, who is Black, asked the health secretary nominee. Kennedy then referenced a “series of studies” showing that “to particular antigens, Blacks have a much stronger reaction”.

I randomly rewatched The Help and one of the racist white ladies was talking about how black people have different germs. “How ridiculous,” I thought. And yet here we are.

Again.
