  • Quixotic Regulation: Australia’s eSafety Commissioner Capitulates

    It was given top billing, a near absurd show intended to rope in content on a global social media platform, thereby denying all outside Australia access to it.  Because an Australian official had deemed a video too disturbing and offensive for Australians of ordinary sensibility (the standard remains opaquely absurd), the world’s citizenry were also […]

    Mission Creep: How the Police State Acclimates Us to Being Modern-Day Slaves

    Like the proverbial boiling frogs, the government has been gradually acclimating us to the specter of a police state for years now: Militarized police. Riot squads. Camouflage gear. Black uniforms. Armored vehicles. Mass arrests. Pepper spray. Tear gas. Batons. Strip searches.

  • In Solidarity with Gaza and the World’s Forgotten Millions

    The moral burden lies with us all to express solidarity with the people of Palestine.

  • Letter to the Editor

    President Biden talks about American “red lines,” that protect Palestinians from an ongoing extermination. But these red lines are just another blatant lie; there is no pause in the US support for genocide. It turns out that people have their own red lines. For me, Israel’s recent threats to the chief prosecutor of the International […]

  • A Global Crackdown on Freedom of Expression

The eradication of basic freedoms and rights is partly due to the pervasive normalization of censorship. Across media platforms, […]

    International law―the recognized rules of behavior among nations based on customary practices and treaties, among them the United Nations Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights―has been agreed upon by large and small nations alike.  To implement this law, the nations of the world have established a UN Security Council (to maintain international peace […]

    What’s Next for Battlefield America?

    I did not know Israel was capturing or recording my face. [But Israel has] been watching us for years from the sky with their drones.
