Antisemitism such as this, violent white supremacy and virulent misogyny do not go way; they’re just temporarily driven underground in certain times and places. Ignored and unchecked, all of them are deadly phenomena. Whenever and wherever we see them, we should stand up and challenge them in whatever possible way.
This evening, literal Nazis dared to show their true colors in East Cobb outside a synagogue, showcasing their hate for the whole world to see. Flying a flag that stands for genocide. My God.

Norfolk Southern detonated five train cars full of toxic vinyl chloride in East Palestine - for no reason and with no permission. They should have to do way, way more than just pay a fine. 1) Norfolk Southern should be forced to set up a fund paying for the medical expenses of all people affected by the incident for years to come. And 2) Norfolk Southern should be criminally charged with negligence and public endangerment. We must not let this go. Only the public holding onto it keeps state and federal government from being able to sweep it under the rug and move on. (If Biden could go to Ukraine, he could go to East Palestine,)

Our political power structure does not concern itself with creating a healthy society; it concerns itself with managing a sick one. Which means that the system that is meant to heal us, itself is very sick. My newest substack: AMERICA, HEAL THYSELF open.substack.com/pub/marian…

The Pregnancy Workers Fairness Act will go into effect on Tuesday, protecting pregnant women from legally being fired or retaliated if they need/request reasonable accommodations due to their pregnancy or postpartum status. An important step forward. (Now paid family leave please)

Are you kidding? Tell me what realistic thing either of them are saying that I’m not saying? Of course we should support any negotiations possible - I have said that repeatedly!! (Denmark offering to host talks, etc) - but someone just saying “I want a ceasefire! I say ceasefire now! I’m pro-peace!!” is saying what, exactly…? Do you think it’s that simple? Are they saying the U.S. stop all support this minute? If they are, do you think Putin would just stop and say “0kaaaaay”? Are you under the impression that that would be followed by “peace?” That he would say “Great, let’s talk!” No, he would simply crush Ukraine - and not “peacefully,” I assure you. The counteroffensive is in process. I support Ukraine having any country left that it is possible to negotiate.

That system will go to extraordinary lengths to make sure the unholy alliance of government and corporate wealth is not disturbed. We have to be willing to go to any (peaceful) lengths to make sure it is.

The problem is a sclerotic, corrupted political system that does more to obstruct than to facilitate the expression of the will of the people.

Years of experience has led me to believe that the American people are not the problem. Poll after poll makes clear that the people’s “will” is for a moderate, decent alignment of public policy with the angels of our better nature. 🧵

Anything short of that (and the courage it requires) and we’re acquiescing to a lifeless, unethical institutional machinery that will inevitably lead to civilization’s demise.

We need to stand for humanitarian values in the face of a soulless, merciless insistence that profit matters more than people, animals or even the earth itself.

The reason there’s so much despair around humanity’s most serious challenges is not because we don’t have the genius or creativity with which to solve them, but because their solutions don’t align with our dominant economic paradigm. 🧵
