AIPAC spent $15 million on this because Democratic voters don’t agree with them on Israel. If the voters were with them, they wouldn’t have to spend millions imposing their views on the party. AIPAC opposes democracy in the US, in Israel, and in Palestine.

Over in New York, George Latimer leads progressive Rep. Jamaal Bowman 54–46% with 29% of the estimated vote counted in the #NY16 Democratic primary. This was the most expensive congressional primary in history with $20M+ spent.

"You wouldn't use air conditioning if you care about the environment" is just the new "You'd recycle your plastic if you cared about the environment." Both purposely default to individual responsibility as the cure when the real issue is industries & companies. It's. a. distraction. It always is.

There absolutely is this pervasive global idea that Air Conditioning Is The Sworn Enemy of Being Green (in a way that we don’t tend to think about heating), and this is dangerous and bad. Providing cooling that uses less energy is great, but forcing people to go without entirely? Not so much.

If you make any kind of art and call yourself a "content creator" I will go angry mom on your ass so fast. "Content" is corporate pabulum. You make art. Call yourself an artist, hold your head up high, and don't help bean-counters and empty suits to degrade you. They'll do that on their own.

I suspect this compulsion to reduce the issue down to Muslims is part of this perception of the conflict as religious but it is not that religious at all. Palestinian nationalism is a largely secular project historically and, notably, so was Zionism up until recently.
