israel hasn't violated humanitarian law in Gaza
says the united states
Hii, Feel the News the comedy show is on Saturday April 6th in Brooklyn and you should totally come if you are around! Today I’m sharing my feelings on the white house spokesperson saying so-called israel hasn’t violated international humanitarian law in Gaza. Onto the news…
News that made me say Beyoncé isn’t here for Black liberation
John Kirby, a white house spokesman, boldly stated to the press that the state department has not found incidents where so-called israel has violated international humanitarian law in Gaza. This is what I expect from a man who wears a suit to commit war crimes. Let’s be honest, the suit is the uniform of evil.
No one ever sees a person wearing a suit and thinks that person is going to do some mutual aid today. When you see someone wearing a suit you assume they are either going to approve an oil pipeline, help Joe Biden write another crime bill, or crash the economy. If you wear a suit to do good, I’m sorry you wear the uniform of Darth Vader. Maybe try sweats?
John Kirby’s gall to lie to the press when he knows we all have social media was so absurd that the journalist repeated the question like he was asking a child who had crumbs all over their face whether they ate the cookies and the child said nah ah. John didn’t take this opportunity to repent the US’ crimes because that would mean he would have to quit his job and give up all his expensive suits. John decided a long time ago that expensive suits were much more important than having a soul. John doubled down on the lie and said “the state department has a process in place to determine whether international humanitarian law has been violated and they have found none”.
At this point the press should have started singing liar liar pants on fire but they didn’t because something about wearing a suit makes people feel like they should be “professional”. I told you it was the uniform of evil. Also, I don’t think there is anything more professional than singing liar liar pants on fire to a man whose every single cell permeates deceit.
Nonetheless, my point is why try to have a civil conversation with people who have proven repeatedly they are more allergic to the truth than Beyoncé is to Black liberation. That’s saying a lot given Beyoncé crossed a picket line to go to a party.
Politicians lie to us because they think we’ve been sufficiently brainwashed to believe in their legitimacy. That’s why Hillary Clinton will go on late night TV and tell people who are upset about genocide to get over themselves. Hillary, just because you got over your war crimes doesn’t mean we need to get over Genocide Joe’s crimes. Hillary Clinton literally said Joe Biden cares about people, to which Jimmy Fallon did not laugh at because he doesn’t know a good joke when he hears one.
Politicians are illegitimate and we have to start treating them as such. People are already disrupting them which is great. Hillary Clinton should never ever be able to complete a sentence in public without people calling her genocider. However, we should go further. We should continue making decisions within our community that will eventually discard the politicians and the state.
That’s it for the news but don’t go yet
This week on TikTok I talked about the similarities between P Diddy and Joe Biden.
I read this interesting essay on rest not being resistance and you should read it too. Spoiler alert: It’s not saying that rest is not resistance. It’s saying collective liberation is the only way for all of us to rest. Otherwise, rest will continue to be an individualized act.
