Laughing about dead Palestinian babies on a hip American TV show, while parroting Israeli propaganda. Sounding confidently substantive about a two year human tragedy, while simultaneously dismissive enough, indifferent enough to sound American cool, capable of entertaining and eliciting laughter from an audience. Distracting from the barbarous shredding of families and babies in Gaza, since distraction will get airtime, and the show must go on.
President Trump has ordered prosecutors to seek the death penalty for every undocumented migrant accused of a capital crime – but not all U.S. citizens similarly charged. This E.O. is an attempt to codify his dangerous speech toward migrants. justsecurity.org/114155/trum…
The attempt to kill former President Donald Trump was awful, and all too familiar in American history. What is far too common right now is dangerous speech - rhetoric that normalizes and even encourages political violence in lieu of democracy.

Here's the letter that @knightcolumbia just sent to President Shafik about free speech at Columbia (with corrected URL) knightcolumbia.org/blog/knig…
We are among more than 200 organizations who have signed this letter. It is particularly vital that social media platforms strengthen their platform-integrity efforts in an election year.

Israel's sluggish delivery of food aid to Gaza is tantamount to torturing civilians, and it is turning even longtime friends into appalled critics. But Israel can relieve this needless suffering, without helping Hamas | Opinion | @SusanBenesch

‼️ Out now in @haaretzcom : “For all the agonizing days since October 7, Israel and Gaza have been the subject of a battle of words alongside the actual war,” writes Susan Benesch.
What’s happening is tantamount to torturing civilians. Israel – and the United States – must act to relieve needless suffering and death.

As Susan Benesch and @EthanZ wrote in their op-ed, “The best way to protect people from harms engendered by TikTok (and other social media platforms) is to unleash researchers so they can build up knowledge collectively.”

Banning TikTok could have an even more dire impact in an election year: it's a hub for news and information that will be critical to ensuring eligible voters have the right information and are not susceptible to mis- and dis-information. #DontBanTikTok
