"The US-ISR proposition to control the distribution of supplies in #gaza #palestine, under the guise of humanitarian aid raises grave humanitarian, ethical, security and legal concerns, says Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF).

articles such as this always get me thinking about why SF politics is so much worse and I think part of it is that progressives are disunited and can't hold accountable our politicians who get elected and pivot right (Mandelman), focus on the wrong issues (Chan, reopening a highway) or think they're above us.

in reply to This spaceship does not exist • • •The image depicts a scene in an urban environment with a large, weathered aircraft fuselage prominently positioned in the foreground. The fuselage, marked with the number "28" in red, is painted in a faded blue and orange, with visible signs of rust and wear. It is situated on a street lined with tall, dilapidated buildings, suggesting a post-apocalyptic or dystopian setting. The ground is littered with debris, and a motorcycle is parked nearby. Two individuals, one wearing an orange jacket and the other in a yellow top, are walking away from the viewer towards a covered area, possibly a bus stop. The atmosphere is hazy, with birds flying in the background, adding to the sense of abandonment. The overall color palette is muted, with a predominance of blues, grays, and greens, contributing to the desolate mood of the scene.
