i cant stand when people talk about problematic systems as though they cant be challenged or changed, "thats just how it has always been".
zero creative thought, mainly because it benefits you.
"i done worked my ass off" man shut yo dumb ass up
in a healthy society with a robust democracy, the opinion of a woman of such intellectual mediocrity, ignorance, and lack of depth would be politically inconsequential.
Why not just accept that everybody was doing their job here and it was an impossible situation
Someone please explain to me what the guy in the tower would’ve done for them in that situation.
My blood began boiling when I heard him say what do you need from me right after she just explained the very dire situation they were in almost twice. But I don’t want to feel animosity towards him
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The controller was a Miami Center en route radar specialist, not in a tower. FAA rules require asking what assistance the pilot needs to enable priority handling/clearance of airspace while coordinating support; controllers cannot fly the aircraft.

lol what is happening here
Debbie Dingell and Mallory McMorrow both share that they’re CONCERNED for the state of Haley Stevens following her endorsement of Mike Rogers
McMorrow: I don’t know her fiancé, but to see him out there so publicly…my husband and I talked about this and my husband said if he ever tried to speak for me the way that we see happening now, he’s like “You would leave me.” It’s hard to watch.
Dingell: Haley Stevens told me at midnight last night this was all a rumor…she texted me at 7:45 am “Watching you on MSNOW ❤️❤️❤️” I’m just upset, I’m very concerned, it’s sad, but I don’t want to be distracted anymore.
i watched this at 3am this morning instead of sleeping, and in terms of long-form content it's some of the finest i've seen. you dont have to be engaged with the ethan klein of it all to pick up some gems

BREAKING: 🇺🇸 U.S. Senator Chris Murphy who stated a few days ago that he had seen the new plan for an attack on Iran and called it catastrophic, has been hospitalized after suffering a stroke on Saturday, according to his chief of staff.
Ugh
Norman Finkelstein complains about how he claims recent immigrants are all on food stamps and go to stores to buy "bags of salmon," and his best friend who is a doctor told him how immigrants go to the hospital for a cough or headache because "it's all free."
Norman Finkelstein: "I walk into a supermarket, and I have to say, it gets a little bit under my skin, I'm the only one paying with money. Everybody's on food stamps. It does get under my skin. Because I see them buy these bags of salmon, $100... and they're paying everything with food stamps, it gets under my skin. And they're all very recently here, as last week."
this Apartheid era propaganda video makes history feel like a series of copy/paste commands.
Today, you'll be flooded with Israeli propaganda about "we're a true democracy, not an apartheid"
All of their talking points are copied from Apartheid South Africa's propaganda (watch👇)
Apartheid South Africa's Tricameral Parliament was 42% colored & Indian in 1983, after the regime allowed 2.8 million colored & 850,000 Indian citizens to vote (while excluding 22.7 million black South Africans). Colored representatives even held ministerial positions, but without portfolios (i.e. no real power).
This is just like Israel allowing 2 million Palestinian citizens to vote while excluding 6 million in the occupied territory & 8 million in exile. The less than 15% of Israel's Knesset that is Arab are excluded from power (both Netanyahu & the opposition parties refuse to form a government with Arab parties).
Apartheid South Africa had black policemen, soldiers, engineers, doctors, & professors whom they loved to show in propaganda videos to claim "we're a cosmopolitan society". But that was only a fig leaf to hide the disenfranchisement of the overwhelming majority of blacks.
Apartheid South Africa also claimed a God-given right to the land. They also screamed "we're facing an existential threat" & are "surrounded by enemies who want to destroy us".
They also bragged "we're the only democracy in Africa", "we have Western values", "we're the only industrialized state in Africa", "we're one of the 20 most developed states on earth"... It was still an Apartheid!
Don't fall for Israel's recycled apartheid propaganda!
