I teach race and power issues - less than five years ago, I had to argue with White people that racism is still a concern. These days. I don’t have to make the argument.

💯 “The challenge is, it's not a messaging issue. It is an issue of getting the war to end, shifting policy — but it's also an issue of showing up. We've got to be willing to come to college campuses and listen to young people and have those difficult conversations on Gaza and not shy away from it.”

💯 It’s message discipline, actual political reporters prize it as a virtue
Peggy Noonan, Wall St Journal ‘reporter’ & former Reagan speechwriter can’t be trusted when she claims she’s “barely trained” and describes media training and message discipline as some kind of suspicious conformity.

Carole Tyler @CaroleTyler"Peggy Noonan is a propagandist, not a journalist. The idea that she would have engaged with these women, or reported in good faith, is controverted by like everything she has ever written."
—chriscesq01:44 PM - May 04, 2024![Peggy Noonan: "I was on a bench taking notes a a group of young women, all in sunglasses, masks, and kaffiyehs, walked by. "Friends, please come say hello and tell me what you think," I called. They marched past, not making eye contact, save one, a beautiful girl of about 20. "I'm not trained," she said. Which is what they're instructed to say to corporate-media representatives who will twist your words. "I'm barely trained, you're safe," I called, and she laughed and half-halted. But her friends gave her a look and she conformed."]()

I saw someone post that police protect the State, not the people - which explains very much why they don't care at all about white supremacist marches and way too much about any movement that disrupts the status quo.

As the pro-Palestine group called for the U.S. to stop funding Israel’s war on Gaza, the counter-group sang the national anthem and shouted chants at them, such as “F–k Joe Biden,” “Who’s your daddy?,” “Take a shower” and “Shave your legs.”
