"'Do you want to have progress or do you want to be correct?"'

Well, now I know why this got the downvotes. Great video, btw.

What do we call Assad?

Hero worship isn't leftist and nobody should rush to defend it

Promise you won't use it.

"Kamala is not American" is coming.

She spent several years in Canada, so we have Canadian yearbook photos. And if conservatives can say Barack Obama is not American, and anti-immigrant sentiment is rising, they will definitely do it about her.

I would be very happy if Biden got elected and then immediately stepped down. He doesn't even have to telegraph it. I don't care.

Not Immediately Killing Every Minority 2024 wooooo

I wish there were debates in the 2024 Democratic primaries.

Okay, but did you get to watch Barbenheimer in 2023?

As the most powerful nation, literally nobody can stop us from being this stupid.

But in the event of a fascist takeover, please do try.

I really like how those first two are basic science, but somebody was actually able to innovate them into doing something useful.

I wish more technology was like this, and not whatever the crypto/metaverse/NFT/AI people are doing (mostly mistaking fluff for innovation)

I can tell you haven't watched the video, and that you haven't even engaged in the topic that the video is about...

I don't think people watch these before they upvote or downvote them. By the way, I ended up subscribing to this YouTube channel and all of their videos are pretty consistently good actually.

 

Skip to 38 minutes to hear about the bizarre state-run Brand Israel campaign, featuring Gal Gadot in Maxim.

Or to 33 minutes for some great insight about how pinkwashing doesn't just distract, it also divides.

Of course, the whole video is good too

Muna Alkurd (18) is forced to share half of her house with Israeli settlers. Nayef Abassi (26) can’t get a building permit for his house and his animals' barn has been demolished. The pressure of the occupation is very present for both young Palestinians. Yet they feel at home in East Jerusalem and they are trying to build a future for themselves in the city where they were born.

Muna’s dream is to become a journalist to tell her story to the world. Nayef just wants to take care of his wife and kids. He makes money by transporting construction materials with his donkeys. They have similar ambitions as their peers elsewhere in the world, but when all policies are aimed at getting you out of the city, building a future in East Jerusalem becomes an act of resistance.

Omar Abdelqader's (25) story is quite different. He’s an Palestinian Arab with Israeli citizenship, which allows him to live anywhere in Israel. He is tired of the occupation and is about to leave East Jerusalem for Jaffa, where perspectives look better for him.

Home paints three intimate portraits of young Palestinians living under occupation.
