“As a citizen of a country openly financing genocide, and as a family that experienced South African Apartheid, the endorsement was an opportunity to repudiate justifications for the widespread targeting of journalists and ongoing war on children.”

And it’s wild too. It is absolutely shameful and fucking embarrassing for any journalist to endorse Kamala given the targeting of journalists by Israel.

One of my best friends for years works for a local news network and she’s fully “We gotta vote Harris to stop Trump” and I can’t comprehend it.

How is the mass killing of your colleagues not enough to turn you away? What the fuck is wrong with you? If I found out that biologists were being specifically targeted and murdered by some entity that would definitely stop me from supporting that entity.

Trump wants to turn the colonial violence inward, Harris wants it more external to the core in order to placate the Metropole. From a purely selfish standpoint, it makes sense. But it shows a complete lack of solidarity and consciousness

See and I understand that from the perspective of most Americans, but not journalists! The Biden-Harris administration has, via Israel, murdered more journalists than literally anyone ever in history.

I saw someone say this like 2 hours ago but now can’t find it to save my life, “Journalists for Harris is like chickens for KFC”

"Listen, we have to support KFC or Chick-Fil-A will win, don't you see?!"
