1. Bolivian voters got their first look at a very crowded 2020 ballot. It includes a united left (only the MAS led by finance minister Luis Arce), a depleted center (Carlos Mesa, minus some allies), and a very fractured but energized right wing. woborders.blog/2020/02/03/bolivia-2020-candidates/

5. Student-built Apartheid Wall holding strong on its third day at the Vanderbilt campus. Palestine solidarity protesters reserved a five-day slot months ago, but we're told last week the space was needed for construction, or perhaps "grounds work."

6. The idea that Israelis have the right to self-defense against terrorism, but Palestinians do not enjoy the same right to self-defense against overwhelming devastation is either blind to human suffering or catastrophically racist or both.

8. One thing Aaron Bushnell's self immolation reveals, and forces us to confront, is the mind of someone who has chosen to place his life alongside those being killed daily with our country's weapons. And to declare that his life isn't worth more. This alone disrupts normality.

    4. (and this may surprise a different set of people) The target audience of protest suicides is often not those in power, but allies insufficiently engaged in collective action. It serves as a message about urgency and commitment.

    Freedom for one people does not imply or require expulsion of others. The supposition that it does is an important mirror of how we settler state residents view the world, though.

17. Awkward family dinner conversation in Bolivia: Hearing a relative say "Our mistake was to not have killed all the Indians. We need a Pinochet-style shock." Like Trump, Áñez has emboldened racists to dream out loud. @LilaAndrea86/1209978175406641153

19. Bolivia wakes up with a president unsuited by her past comments to be a neutral election arbiter. A plurality political party unsure whether to engage in tough elections or ill-fated resistance. A military that has broken its post-2003 pattern of restraint. And 8 dead.

20. Another day when Western liberals agree that the right way to respond to white Europeans under occupation is sending weapons, while the right way to respond to Palestinians under occupation is to send tears of sympathy while shipping bombs to their occupiers.

27. Months ago, the @DeathPanel_ named the "sociological construction of the end of the [still raging] pandemic." They've consistently been ahead of the story of the public health policy collapse, and ardent advocates for disabled people in the ongoing clusterfuck. Listen. @DeathPanel_/1516915661490081792

32. #BoliviaEnCrisis Analyses by @JohnCuriel14 & @Master0fNull at @MITelectionlab and @ceprdc all presume that any #FraudeElectoral in the 2019 Bolivian election only took the form of manipulated vote totals between one count and another… Not what the OAS & EU alleged.
