Leftists are stanning Donald Trump and right-wingers sound like the dumbest of internet communists and people still want me to believe that horseshoe theory is bullshit

I know about the close relationship between Liberia and the US but what is going on here

“I am a Semite” is the weirdest defense against the accusation that you hate Jews. It’s an archaic term that has a clear modern definition. It’s like saying “I can’t be hysterical because I don’t have a uterus.”

Something that shocks me is realizing that people are extremely ignorant about the atrocities that have been committed since the Shoah.

Cambodia, Rwanda, The Balkans, Colombia, Guatemala, Korea, Vietnam, Mariupol, Mosul, Darfur, Nigeria...

20,000 Jewish civilians were executed in a ditch outside my birthplace, Bobruisk, Belarus in one day in 1941.

Leave my dead ancestors out of your mouth. Find a different way to slander the Jewish state.

absolute legend.

The rush to eliminate standardized testing in college admissions was one of the most hilariously and predictably stupid things I've ever seen play out in real time.

This piece in Tablet Magazine by Allison Tombros Korman is deeply troubling, and a must read addition to the post-10/7 canon:

'On Nov. 17, 2023 I resigned from my dream job at the DC Abortion Fund (DCAF).

In the four months since my resignation, the organization seemed to have grown…

The important The Free Press essay by Uri Berliner about NPR gets the usual responses: Not fair, staff is 'at risk,' and of course, you're a racist. It happened to me and will happen to any journalist who writes what they see. Meanwhile the institutions continue the slide into irrelevance

Everyone involved in this interaction is a grifter with mental illness.

Social media found these awful people, dredged them up out of whatever swamp they inhabited, and made them our cultural overlords.

Enough.

Still thinking about how I'll simply never trust another social justice group again.

I’ve just spent a fair bit of time browsing David Sacks timeline and I’m less than impressed. Rarely have I seen anyone comment so widely and confidently about subjects on which they not a shred of first hand knowledge… It’s actually not a talent…

An exhibition, featuring some personal items from survivors, is going to be opening in New York recreating the horror that occurred at the Nova Festival on October 7. The survivors themselves gave approval for the exhibit and Scooter Braun is said to be helping with the project.…

future just dropped an album and he got another on the way

No more using the word “Zionist.” From now on, we’re gonna be specific with what we mean. Are you talking about “Kahane fans” or “believers in a 2 state solution” or “a guy with a Jewish last name?” Just say that. Say what you mean Instead.

anyone see that eclipse yesterday

Why is this war fought like this...with it always being an open public discussion, the date and time of the Rafah offensive...most military campaigns in history (that are successful) were not waged like this.

Also it's obvious to me that now that the IDF left Khan Younis...that…

I'm not sure that the US policy of saying we've got to get a deal, there's no option but a deal, we'll pressure Israel to agree to a deal now, we need to stop the war ASAP—is how you get Hamas to compromise.

We are in the perverse situation where antisemitic ppl are dictating who the “real Jews” are. No Roger, you are not the arbiter of Jewishness. I simply cannot imagine the so-called left saying this about any other minority group. It would never happen. Who do they think they are.

This story is a hilarious example of what narcissists progressive activists are. They submitted the pieces assuming they'd be rejected so they could cry censorship and then the pieces got accepted so they made unreasonable demands to claim victimhood when the museum said no lol
