@skinnylatte that’d be great, the restaurant I’m thinking of is way out west, Long Gong Chinese, but I have it on good authority (my wife) there’s a Michelin star somewhere around here
@skinnylatte oh ya, that's true, and tbh i think american exceptionalism and western chauvinism do a lot of work to get people to literally never think of leaving the us permanently
@skinnylatte In the US, we're so accustomed to our passports just being taken everywhere, i think lots of ppl (most of the US doesn't travel internationally but a lot that do as well) don't realize the work that goes into not needing visas for travel.
This is insanity what's going on with the fascist's talking points about Haitians, this is quite literally the propaganda of Dominican Republic dictator Rafael Trujillo who stoked racial hatred to justify massacring Haitians.
There's still more that #Biden has to do to stop being an anchor on this election for anti-fascists, namely, ending the genocide in #Gaza which *cost* him his campaign.
The next set of Israeli atrocities will be an anchor around the neck of Harris or anyone on the dem ticket.
@ramsey@thomasfuchs The IHRA definition does include criticism of the Israeli state as part of antisemitism. We just went through this exercise in Florida and the bill on antisemitism was amended to use the Jerusalem Declaration on antisemitism, which preserves the ability to criticize Israel, on first amendment grounds.
@inthehands Ed Zitron made a pretty good case on tech won’t save us that some companies, like Microsoft, appear to be sort of just creating money right now by throwing money at open AI as cloud computing credits, then receiving it and could be reporting it as revenue sort of? Honestly don’t seem legal but I’ll leave that for Lina Khan. https://overcast.fm/+ZpQDXOsjk
@inthehands@blogdiva going off on a Florida tangent, I think it’s surprising the Biden campaign insists there’s a chance of them winning Florida, but then turns around and devotes zero resources to it. They just sent Kamala Harris’ husband (white) and two white ladies to kick off their *Latinos for Biden* campaign 😂
