The intra-Palestinian meeting in Moscow has precedent
— Hanna Notte (@HannaNotte) February 29, 2024
Russia's hosted such meetings in the past, most recently Feb 2019
Russia has long lamented the US' "monopolization" of the peace process & tried to carve out a niche for itself: mediating among the disunited Palestinians/2

Location: U.S. Embassy and residential compounds
Events: Heavy gunfire is occuring around the area of the U.S. Embassy and residential compounds adjacent to the Trutier area of Tabarre. All Embassy personnel have been instructed to remain indoors and shelter-in-place until further notice. All others should avoid the area.
Actions to take:
- Avoid the area;
- Avoid demonstrations and any large gatherings of people;
- Do not attempt to drive through roadblocks; and
- If you encounter a roadblock, turn around and get to a safe area.

It's not just remarkable, it's a seriously sick obsession with skin color in 21st-century first-world culture:
by artappraiser on Sat, 01/07/2023 - 6:33pm
Nah, it's just same-old racism, tribalism, easy dismissal of "the other", or winning an argument thru whatever means. Most of our acts are not that profound or edgy. The banality of me-too.
by PeraclesPlease on Sun, 01/08/2023 - 5:11am
Disagree - tribalizing people by skin color and stereotyping is FAR MORE ABSURD, especially in the 21-st century, then doing it by ethnicity or citizenship or culture! It's the stuff of illiterate idiots from a millennia ago. Truly truly idiotic, foolish, counter-productive and self-defeating.
Actually, the only place it makes sense is policing of criminals or runaways or unidentified victims, there you don't want to leave skin color out of your description, just as you don't want to leave out eye color, height and weight, fingerprints and DNA of course.
by artappraiser on Sun, 01/08/2023 - 7:42pm

The color of the skin of the participants has nothing to do with this. I see these tribes: the kid's parents are struggling immigrants; the kid is an Asperger's-type genius; the music teacher believes in the meritocracy of musical talent. None of that is "fair" either.

Sigh - there is a downside to having most villains be black, Arab-Persian-like, Mexican, or German-looking/sounding - Gary Oldman and Anthony Perkins not withstanding. (presumably Ted Levine, aka the transsexual "Buffalo Bill" is even Jewish, I'd guess.) Then again, we get more African-American good guys than any of those other groups.
