The display of Democratic Party unity was as pitch perfect as it was tone deaf to what is arguably the most pressing moral issue of our time.
Blink, and you would have missed any mention of the U.S.-backed genocidal war Israel continues to carry out against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
The fact that tens of thousands of anti-war protesters gathered in solidarity with Palestinians this week barely registered on the convention floor Monday night.

"i have worn off all my luster.
i have, many times, neglected
to wear my own face.
i have seen your angels
down on earth misplacing your umbrellas.
i admire that
& look the other way."

what if you were my idol turned best friend who everyone in the league knew i was completely gone for. and what if i drafted you first on the team i was captaining for the all star game after begging the captains going before me not to pick you. and what if absolutely nobody was surprised. what if the emcee and tate mcrae already knew who i Wanted Before Going To Bed last night and i was so crazypossessive even sports writers knew i’d pulverise anyone who took you from me. and what if i told reporters after that this was my longtime dream come true. and what if you said all you wanted to do now was to make your captain happy, and told the boys that you Listen to your captain. and what if… after all that... you put my hoodie on and did a live interview in front of god and gary bettman.
