Imagine If Gaza Was Jewish And The People Bombing It Were Muslims

E

If Gaza was populated by Jews and the people massacring its inhabitants were Muslims, nobody would have any trouble calling this thing what it is. The words "genocide" and "Holocaust" would've been appearing in the news every single day for the last 19 months. Reading by Tim Foley.

May 16, 20254 min

Never, Ever Let Anyone Forget What They Did To Gaza

E

I will never forget the Gaza holocaust. I will never let anyone else forget about the Gaza holocaust. No matter what happens or how this thing turns out, I will never let anyone my voice touches forget that our rulers did the most evil things imaginable right in front of us and lied to us about it the entire time. Reading by Tim Foley.

Israel Admits It Bombed A Hospital To Kill A Journalist For Doing Journalism

E

That's right kids, Israel will literally assassinate a journalist by bombing a hospital, openly admit that they bombed the hospital to assassinate the journalist for engaging in journalistic activities - and then call you an antisemite if you say Israel bombs hospitals and assassinates journalists. Reading by Tim Foley.

How To Make Your Mind Harder For The Propagandists To Manipulate

E

When people hear the word "propaganda" they tend to think it means the same thing as "lies", but that's not accurate. The domestic propaganda that westerners are fed by the powerful does not typically consist of whole-cloth fabrications, but rather of distortions, half-truths, manipulated emphasis, and lies by omission. Reading by Tim Foley.

It Is Freakish And Insane How Our Society Averts Its Gaze From Gaza

E

It can make you feel like you’re going mad. How phony and superficial it all is. How we’re a year and a half into history’s first live-streamed genocide and our whole society is acting like everything’s peachy. Reading by Tim Foley.

India-Pakistan Ceasefire, And Other Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix

Israel Really Is As Evil As It Looks

E

Israeli snipers routinely, deliberately shoot children in the head throughout the Gaza Strip. Israel created an AI system for the IDF to target suspected Hamas fighters when they go home to their families and mockingly called it "Where's Daddy?", because they are killing the fighters' children. Israel has targeted healthcare facilities and ambulances in Gaza hundreds upon hundreds of times. They've been documented entering the hospitals they attack and systematically destroying individual pieces of medical equipment in order to make them unusable. IDF soldiers constantly post photos and videos to their social media accounts showing themselves mockingly dressing in the clothes of dead and displaced Palestinian women and playing with the toys of dead and displaced Palestinian children.

Waking Up From The Nightmare Of Western Civilization

E

We don't need horror movies. We're creating our own horrors in places like Gaza. We don't need dystopian fiction. We're living in dystopia right here in our own society. We don't need fantasy stories about scary monsters. The scary monsters run our government. Reading by Tim Foley.

May 5, 20255 min

Israel Will Even Persecute Palestinians For Simply Talking To Journalists

E

Israeli soldiers have been harassing a Palestinian activist who appeared in Louis Theroux's recent documentary The Settlers to talk about Israel's apartheid abuses in the occupied West Bank. Issa Amro shared footage of IDF troops raiding his home over the weekend, days after Theroux's film debuted on the BBC. Israelis not only murder journalists, attack journalistic institutions and block journalists from entering the Gaza Strip, they also persecute Palestinian civilians who speak with journalists. Reading by Tim Foley.

It Was Never About Hostages. It Was Never About Hamas

E

There is absolutely no excuse for continuing to babble about hostages and Hamas after the US and Israel said the goal is the complete ethnic cleansing of Gaza. They told you what this is really about. They said it. With their face holes. They said it right to you. End of debate. Reading by Tim Foley.

May 4, 20254 min

"Anti-Zionism Is Anti-Semitism"

E

Anti-Zionism is anti-semitism. Cats are ducks. The Declaration of Independence is spaghetti sauce. The Bronze Age is a foot fetish. There are no differences between any two things. All things are exactly the same as all other things. Reading by Tim Foley.

May 1, 20252 min

Israel's Backers Keep Whining That They're Losing Control Of The Narrative

E

Amnesty International is now calling Israel’s mass atrocity in Gaza “a live-streamed genocide” due to the way this nightmare is unfolding right in front of us on the screens of our devices around the world, and public support for Israel is plummeting in the United States. Zionists are losing control of the narrative, and they know it. And they are not taking it well. Reading by Tim Foley.

May 1, 20258 min

Biden Never Pushed For A Ceasefire In Gaza

E

So everyone who said the Biden administration was working for a ceasefire lied. They lied that whole entire time. They committed genocide and lied about it, and then they said you were crazy and irresponsible if you didn’t support them. People’s rage should shake heaven and earth. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 29, 20255 min

It's Always About The System

E

Israel is a bad country full of bad people. They are not bad because of their religion, they are bad because they live in a genocidal apartheid state whose existence depends on indoctrinating its people into seeing genocide and apartheid as good. It's the system. It's always about the system. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 28, 20255 min

We Are Trapped In A Dystopia That Is Ruled By Lunatics

E

We really need a name for the mental illness that comes with obscene amounts of wealth. Elon Musk's bizarre progeny obsession. All the weird shit Michael Jackson did. The stories you hear about rich families making their servants clean their toilets after every use or throw away plates after every meal. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 27, 20257 min

All The Worst Evils Are Happening Right Out In The Open

E

Trump is committing genocide for Israel after publicly admitting to being bought and owned by the Adelsons. All the worst shit happens right out in the open. You don't need to come up with any elaborate conspiracy theories to see it. It's right there, completely unhidden. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 26, 20255 min

Nobody Say "Fuck Israel, Free Palestine"

E

Nobody say "Fuck Israel, Free Palestine." Saying "Fuck Israel, Free Palestine" is very offensive to people who think genocide is good. When you say "Fuck Israel, Free Palestine," you are hurting the feelings of the people who believe it's fine to bomb every hospital in Gaza. So you must never, ever say "Fuck Israel, Free Palestine." Reading by Tim Foley.

Zionism Is The Single Greatest Threat To Free Speech In The Western World Today

The 21st Century Human Is Called Upon To Awaken Both Outwardly And Inwardly

E

We can’t keep living like this. We’ve got to wake up. We’ve got to become better. We’re never going to make it if we don’t awaken to the reality of our circumstances, both as individuals and as a collective. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 23, 20254 min

Not Taking A Position On Gaza IS Taking A Position On Gaza

E

It's not okay to claim ignorance or uncertainty about what's happening in Gaza in 2025. You're an adult. You have internet access. If you don't know, learn. You can't just go "it too compwicated, me no understandy, googoo gaga." It's not cute and it's not okay. Reading by Tim Foley.

If October 7 Justifies The Gaza Genocide, What Acts Of Violence Will The Gaza Genocide Justify?

E

If you believe that all the violence and destruction in Gaza is the fault of Hamas, then by your own logic you must also accept that the coming wave of violent extremism and antisemitism which is going to ensue from the incineration of Gaza will exclusively be the fault of Israel. I said this on Twitter the other day and Israel supporters got outraged and shared screenshots of my post shrieking with indignation that anyone would say such a thing, which is funny because I’m just reading their own line of reasoning back to them. I’m not the one who says an act of violence excuses any violence done in response to it. I’m not the one who says history automatically restarts at the most recent act of aggression, thereby making any amount of retaliatory violence against civilians a justified response to an unprovoked attack for which the vengeful bear no responsibility. This isn’t my position. It’s theirs. Reading by Tim Foley.

The Pope Has Died, And The Palestinian People Have Lost An Important Advocate

E

Pope Francis has died after using his Easter Sunday address to call for peace in Gaza. I don't know who the cardinals will pick to replace him, but I do know with absolute certainty that there are some major transnational intelligence operations in the works to make sure they select a more reliable supporter of Israel. They've probably been working on it since his health started failing. Reading by Tim Foley.

"I Want A Death That The World Will Hear" - Journalist Assassinated By Israel For Telling The Truth

Trump Supporters Don't Understand Free Speech

E

The hypocrisy of Trumpists cheerleading the president's assaults on free speech makes it clear that they have no idea why free speech ever came to be valued in our society in the first place. Reading by Tim Foley.

The US Just Massacred Civilians In Yemen Without Even Claiming They're Military Targets

E

Candles

E

They are sending billionaires and pop stars into space while the planet burns and Americans ration their insulin. There are companies marketing AI lovers to lonely people and harvesting their data. Last night Israel bombed a tent camp in Gaza, and women and children burned alive. This is a strange, dark place. Strange, dark times in a strange, dark world. Light a candle for those who have died. Light a candle for those who are dead inside. Light a candle for those with algorithms in their eyes. Light a candle for those with AI in their souls. Light a candle for the screaming red children. Light a candle for the silent gray children. Light a candle for the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Light a candle for the songs of the whales. Light a candle for the hearts like cast lead. Light a candle for the hearts like wallaby roadkill. Light a candle for the hearts like incense cathedrals. Light a candle for the hearts like wet skies. Light a candle for the eggs in our chests. Light a candle for the seeds in our heads. Light a candle for the mushroom cloud on the horizon. Light a candle for the sleeping Buddhas. I stand slack-jawed and dry-mouthed at a world I do not understand, hurtling toward a future I do not recognize. Firelight dances on my wall from the candles, or maybe from Gaza, or maybe from the biosphere, or maybe from just beneath my skin. Reading by Tim Foley.

"Israel Has A Right To Defend Itself" Is A Genocidal Slogan

E

Bernie Sanders has been repeatedly uttering the phrase "Israel has a right to defend itself" on his "Fighting Oligarchy" tour with Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, which in the year 2025 can only be interpreted as blatant genocide apologia. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 17, 20253 min

Saying It's Antisemitic To Oppose Genocide Is Like Saying It's Anti-Catholic To Oppose Pedophilia

E

Israel, October 2023: How dare you say we bombed Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital? We would never bomb a hospital! Israel, 2023–2025: *bombs all hospitals in Gaza* Israel, April 2025: We just bombed Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital again. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 15, 20255 min

Every Day The Gaza Holocaust Continues, The Empire Tells The Truth About Itself

E

We do not live in a free society that is guided by truth and morality. We live under the most murderous and tyrannical power structure on the face of this planet. And we should distrust everything about it. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 14, 20254 min

It's Crazy And Evil To Support Israel's Atrocities Because You Think God Wants You To

E

The US is so spiritually bankrupt that there are literally tens of millions of Americans who support Israel's genocidal atrocities in Gaza because they think God wants them to. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 13, 20255 min

On AI And Consciousness

E

AI isn't conscious. Saying AI should replace humanity is the same as saying fire should replace humanity, or white noise static from old televisions should replace humanity. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 12, 20257 min

Expect Them To Lie About China Just Like They Lied About Gaza

E

As Washington's cold war with China escalates, we can expect to see a massively reinvigorated anti-China propaganda campaign in the west. As this unfolds, please know that everything you learned about the mass media's dishonesty regarding Gaza is equally true of empire-targeted nations like China. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 12, 20254 min

The Backlash Against Israel's Western-Backed Crimes Will Fuel The Far Right

E

US public opinion is turning hard against Israel as both parties bend over backward to send it expensive weapons and silence its critics - and US public opinion is seldom good at making subtle distinctions. Reading by Tim Foley.

Israel's Innocent Oopsie-Poopsie Medical Massacre Mistake

E

Apr 7, 20255 min

Hamas Succeeded In Exposing The True Face Of The Empire

E

One thing October 7 did accomplish was getting Israel and its allies to show the world their true face. Getting them to stand before all of humanity to say, "If you resist us, we'll kill your babies. We'll deliberately shoot your kids in the head. We'll massacre medical workers. We'll systematically destroy all your hospitals. We'll rape you and torture you as a matter of policy. We'll lay siege to the entire civilian population. We'll make your entire land uninhabitable and then we'll kick you all out and take it for ourselves. We'll assassinate all your journalists and block foreign journalists from entry so that nobody can see what we're doing to you. We'll lie about all of these things the entire time, and you'll know we're lying, and we'll know you know we're lying, and you'll know we know you know we're lying. And we'll get away with it anyway, because we hold all the cards." Reading by Tim Foley.

Truth Is Antisemitism. Protest Is Terrorism. Dissent Is Russian Propaganda

E

Opposing The Gaza Holocaust Is Just The Basic, Bare Minimum Requirement To Not Suck As A Person

E

Opposing the Gaza holocaust doesn’t make you a good person. Failing to oppose the Gaza holocaust makes you a bad person. It’s not something you do so you can feel good about yourself, it’s something you do so you can live with yourself. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 4, 20255 min

They Tell You The Houthis Attack Ships, But They Never Tell You Why

E

None of the people applauding Trump's war on Yemen because "the Houthis are attacking ships" will tell you why the Houthis started attacking ships. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 3, 20254 min

Trump's State Department Would Support Literally Any Israeli Atrocity

E

Netanyahu could live stream himself kicking a baby Palestinian off a cliff and telling the camera he did it because he wants to commit genocide, and the next day Tammy Bruce would respond to all questions about the incident by yelling the word "Hamas!" with her fingers in her ears. Reading by Tim Foley.

Apr 1, 20257 min

Liberals Believe In Nothing And Remember Even Less

E

A Democrat president can be as tyrannical and murderous as he wants and liberals will just brunch away in cheerful obliviousness, content with their knowledge that their team is holding the trophy. Reading by Tim Foley.

Mar 31, 20253 min

"Free Gaza From Hamas" Really Means "Free Gaza From All Palestinians"

E

A Knesset member from Netanyahu's Likud party named Amit Halevi was just on Israeli radio saying that the plan is "to occupy the territory to cleanse it of the enemy," adding that Israel needs "to return to Gaza permanently and control this space, because it is part of our homeland." I mean, how much more explicit do they need to be? Reading by Tim Foley.

The "President Of Peace" Just Bombed Yemen 65 Times In 24 Hours

E

The US launched 65 airstrikes in 24 hours in Yemen, and then Trump's intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard tweeted, "President Trump IS the President of Peace. He is ending bloodshed across the world and will deliver lasting peace in the Middle East." These freaks have no connection with reality. Reading by Tim Foley.

Mar 30, 20256 min

The Word "Bombing" Means Different Things Depending On Where It Happened

E

Someone exploding a building full of pale-skinned English speakers is an earth-shaking tragedy, while someone exploding a building full of darker-skinned Arabic speakers is just Tuesday. Reading by Tim Foley.

Mar 29, 20255 min

Trump Supporters Can No Longer Say Trump Never Started A War

E

I'd like to point out that the tired MAGA talking point about how Trump "never started any new wars" has officially been invalidated because of Yemen. Reading by Tim Foley.

Mar 28, 20253 min

Thoughts On The Trump Team's Signal Chat About Bombing Yemen

E

It's always fascinated me how much empire managers focus on messaging. Their focus is never on whether or not they should do evil things, it's on what narrative they're going to sell to the public about the evil things they're going to do. Reading by Tim Foley.

Mar 27, 20258 min

I Envy The Palestinians

E

I envy the Palestinians. Not for what they’re going through, obviously, but for what they have. Their supremely authentic culture, with its deep roots and ancient connection to the land. Reading by Tim Foley.
