Been playing good cop bad cop (without any change in geopolitical strategy) for idk how long and Americans still don't get it. I have very little hope for them ever turning their genocidal post-colonial abortion of a nation into a normal society.

    AOC and Mamdani are under heat this morning because they've opted to run PR campaigns for an illegal land sale (West Bank land) taking place in New York City.

    Fuck the duopoly.

    Source for the claim that AOC and Mamdani are running PR for Zionists?

    They're actively condemning pro Palestine protests, themselves.

    Learn to link to sources unless you're ready to provide a redundant text alternative: you screenshot is inaccessible.Images of text break much that text alternatives do not. Losses due to image of text lacking alternative such as link:

    • usability
      • we can't quote the text without pointless bullshit like retyping it or OCR
      • text search is unavailable
      • the system can't
        • reflow text to varied screen sizes
        • vary presentation (size, contrast)
        • vary modality (audio, braille)
    • accessibility
      • lacks semantic structure (tags for titles, heading levels, sections, paragraphs, lists, emphasis, code, links, accessibility features, etc)
      • some users can't read the image due to lack of alt text (markdown image description)
      • users can't adapt the text for dyslexia or vision impairments
      • systems can't read the text to them or send it to braille devices
    • web connectivity
      • we have to do failure-prone bullshit to find the original source
      • we can't explore wider context of the original message
    • authenticity: we don't know the image hasn't been tampered
    • searchability: the "text" isn't indexable by search engine in a meaningful way
    • fault tolerance: no text fallback if
      • image breaks
      • image host is geoblocked due to insane regulations.

    Contrary to age & humble appearance, text is an advanced technology that provides all these capabilities absent from images.

    Referring to objections to Hamas as "PR campaigns for an illegal land sale" or a blanket condemnation of "pro Palestine protests" is an obvious strawman fallacy & you know that. Work on your integrity & be less cartoonishly dishonest.
