We must stop dancing around this issue and use the proper language to describe Israel’s war on Palestine.

  1. This is not a "conflict"—it is a massacre.
  2. Starving people to death is genocide.
  3. Starving people is morally indefensible.
  4. Israel is a genocidal state, and its leaders must be held legally accountable for the deaths of innocent men, women, and children.
  5. All countries supporting Israel are complicit and equally accountable.
  6. News media outlets that remain silent or support Israel deserve condemnation.
  7. As civilians, we must treat this massacre as unacceptable and voice our horror to our representatives. If they refuse to act against Israel, they are pro-genocide.

This is not a time for complacency. Enough deaths in Palestine.
We must stop Israel’s genocidal government now.

That’s Bolsonaro’s line of thinking—it plays well with his base, whose average IQ makes a chimp look like Einstein. On the bright side, inmates at "Papuda" (the prison where he's expected to serve his term) are already preparing a warm welcome-home party. What a memorable day that’ll be.

Fatherhood has no expiry date. If your son came to you asking for help, don't overthink. Do the right thing and help him out, regardless of what he wants to shave.

From Trump's optics it's a witch hunt. Locally, we call it "the law."
