1. Everyone should at least consider the idea that the law is constantly remade to prevent social change. That many effective strategies will be criminalized precisely because they are effective. That, therefore, one should never confuse legality with morality. x.com/hannahcrileyy/status/1753122792847880403

3. Here are three things you shouldn't do when campaigning to stop fascism: 1. Kiss a foreign fascist leader on the head. 2. Deputize the national guard to fight crime in cities. 3. Dare the fascist leader to "join me" in new legislation against an oppressed minority.

5. Israeli strikes on Lebanon have outnumbered Lebanese strikes on Israel 7,745 to 1,724, a ratio of 4.5x since October 8. Recent Hezbollah escalation is still outnumbered by 3.5x. Only in two countries does such a pattern get framed around "Israel defending itself." x.com/BeirutUrbanLab/status/1826619481407586680
