āYoung people in the U.S. are not stupid or gullible. They simply reject genocide .... Secretary Clintonās remarks are not only inaccurate, they are also a shameful example of the lengths to which people complicit in genocide will go to to deny its existence.ā
The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention and Human Security feels called to point out that former Secretary of State Hilary Clintonās recent remarks at the Israel Hayom Summit on 2 December amount to outright genocide denial. During her remarks, the Secretary correctly noted that the recent deterioration of Israelās standing among U.S. voters is not a āRepublican versus Democrat kind of divideā but rather a generational one. Nevertheless, she incorrectly diagnosed the reasons for the shift as a matter purely of optics, stating that āIsrael [has] the worst PR of any groupā and accusing social media, particularly TikTok, of presenting āpure propagandaā that American youth are uncritically ingesting.
Secretary Clintonās framing is not at all an accurate reflection of why Americans are growing more critical of Israel. Young Americans of all political stripes have not fallen prey to propaganda, though that is always a legitimate concern. Rather, they have consumed two years of videos depicting Israelās genocide against Palestinians that have been uploaded by Palestinian journalists, ordinary people trying to survive in Gaza, IDF soldiers, and ordinary Israelis themselves. There has been no convincing refutation of the sheer amount of raw evidence of genocide coming out of Palestine. Young people in the U.S. are not stupid or gullible. They simply reject genocide ā something the Secretary might consider doing as well. Secretary Clintonās remarks are not only inaccurate, they are also a shameful example of the lengths to which people complicit in genocide will go to to deny its existence.

Yes. As @sarahkendzior once said, "I'd rather be authentically stupid than artificially intelligent." Or words to that effect.

ICE turns 23 today and its expanded authority is weakening our democracy.
Our new op-ed in @TheFulcrumNews lays out how fear-based enforcement suppresses civic participation and threatens our freedoms.

My AZ favorite bookstore, @changinghands, has this corner with something I have never expected to happen: having to defend the right to write, publish, and read āand therefore, to think.
(The election of the colors says a lot.)

The @LemkinInstitute is calling on every leader in the world to step in immediately with measures that ensure food and water gets into Gaza right now.
No more discussions, meetings, reports, sessions, summits.
GET FOOD AND WATER INTO GAZA NOW.
IF YOU HAVE THE POWER, YOU MUST USE IT.
