“Little Criminals” was a great album.

It’s funny how perspectives differ. I see the concept of “unless you loudly agree with me you must favor the enemy” as pretty much a Nazi-adjacent...

Ah, the hate figures of yesteryear. Good to know some things don’t change.

Turns out it was a hoax. Apparently press releases about his death go out every year around his birthday. He’s 80, but above ground.

I always thought the “silence is complicity” formulation was silly. Sort of like the “words are violence” thing.

I always liked the idea of a holiday based on simple gratitude. Not a struggle session about “settler colonialism”. Not a gateway to Christmas...

You should forward copies to Code Pink, BLM and the Democratic Socialists of America.

And now I’m reading that Bin Laden’s “Letter to America” is enjoying a vogue in social media. From what kind of environment are these people...

It’s hard to comprehend the incandescent stupidity of such a position.

I see the Chair of the House Ethics Committee is pushing for expulsion. I wonder if the Senate will get around to doing the same with Menendez.

So Northwestern University announced a committee to combat “antisemitism and hate” on campus. It got the paroxysmal reaction you might expect. Dozens...

I would say there’s about a seventy percent probability of another Biden term, provided there are no mental lapses so blatant that even the media...

I’ve read that poster thing has been happening all over the country. Woke orthodoxy seemingly can’t abide opposing viewpoints, and “by any means...

The Washington Post pulled this cartoon on the grounds that it was "racist". Given the Hamas strategy of siting command nodes under hospitals...

The fraction of the military age population incapable of serving due to drugs, mental illness, obesity, illiteracy, etc. is truly appalling. The...

I see CNN used it’s standard “mostly peaceful” description of yesterday’s riots in NYC.

Happy Vetetans day to all the tiny minority who served in uniform.

Yes. I think a ludicrous baby- man asserting royal prerogatives as he’s being taken to jail is hilarious. I think a congressman claiming he thought...

If it was good enough for Shakespeare…

OK then. Red hats behind every thread. Personally, I would be delighted to see Trump off the ballot, convicted or otherwise. I think any other GOP...

Yes. That is exactly what the NYT did. I don’t consider myself to be a sad MAGA. I see myself at a relatively cheerful conservative who sees the...

When did MAGA get mentioned in this thread? You’re starting to see red hats behind every tree.

Well, this is the paper that fired its opinion editor for allowing a Tom Cotton opinion piece. I think it’s safe to say the NYT has a fairly...

I see the VP Harris announced a federal strategy to combat Islamophobia last week. The day after the FBI director said antisemitic hate crimes were...

A familiar pattern is emerging. You have the predictable support for Hamas from the nastier regimes in Russia, Iran etc. The scruffier despots Jonah...

A hawk can call itself a handsaw, but that doesn’t make it so.

Yes. Absolutely. I don’t see how anyone with a soul or a functioning mind could think otherwise.

I think anyone who refers to either group as “freedom fighters” suffers from a certain lack of moral and linguistic clarity. Sort of like when the...

So in your context the SS could be called freedom fighters as well.

Yes. When a group makes no secret of a policy of genocide, and has repeatedly demonstrated a willingness to use civilians as human shields, an...

Iran’s other proxies in the region have been active. I see there have been sporadic clashes with Hezbollah along Israel’s northern border. The USS...
