As a progressive Jew & son of Israelis: 1. We have been warning you about how antisemitism destroys movements from within. 2. Many white leftists blame Israel for everything to avoid focusing on their own role in white supremacy. 3. Accepting Nazis into the movement is proof of both of the above.

Hi. 😊 Black American here. Norway is an almost entirely white country. The United States is racist as fuck. That's why we don't have a social democracy or, like, healthcare. Follow for more glimpses into a racist society where white people* would rather die than see a Black person succeed.

This has to be one of the stupidest things I’ve heard from this Administration (and that’s saying something). 1st let’s remember CBP handles customs, not the city. The city has no say whatsoever re: customs processing. So whether or not the city is a “Sanctuary city” is immaterial here. 1/

In addition to everything else, if the purpose of Operation Midnight Hammer was to stop doing Iran from doing something and they continued to do it, the phrase you are looking for is not "despite the success of the operation" but rather "due to its failure"
Despite the success of operation midnight hammer the iranian regime continues to seek the means to possess and employ nuclear weapons

person 2 (insane):
I see. So you dismiss alternate medicine that is ~3,000 years old out of hand because it doesn't fit your belief system. You slung the first insult & I never said Turmeric "killed" anything. It prompted the coughing which removed it.

Trans sisters. I'm pretty sure I was wrong. I
an somy.
I genuinely thought that as a trans woman, if ceded some points with the gender critical crowd we could have a healthier conversation and arrive at better public policy.
The problem is, they are getting crazier and more extreme.
If you admit "trans women don't belong in women's sports" they agree, but call you a man the whole time.
If you admit, "I understand I am a biological man, but this is how I want to live my life and talking about me like this is degrading" they scream about free speech.
If you admit that hurtful language is part of free speech but you don't have to associate with people that degrade you, they act like the victim and call you a man and then say you should be thrown in an insane asylum.
It's like this on everything. They are incapable of looking for a middle ground on bathrooms. They want maximalist policies on everything. They'd throw a fully transitioned, fully passing trans woman in male prison genpop and laugh as she got aids from being raped.
I want a middle ground on so many of these polices. BUT THE FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM IS THEY DO NOT. They enjoy degrading us, it's fun for them.
So, sisters. I genuinely don't know what to do. I think many of our most extreme ideas are bad. But theirs are worse. So if I have to pick, I choose us.
I wish there were a political vehicle for compromise and medical safeguarding. But that just simply does not exist.Post

Hey remember that time an Atheist spent an entire week on here calling for the ethic cleansing and complete elimination of Jews because they said it was the only way to fight Israel? Atheists refuse to account for the ethno-part of Jewish ethno-religion when they whine about ending all religions.
...
Maybe. But behind the annoyance of the atheist there is typically much less bigotry, authoritarian tendencies, tax evasion, science denialism, closeted sexuality, etc.

Dear Team Paramount:
I think we can all agree that the temperature of our nation's social discourse feels higher than ever. Too often, the space once reserved for thoughtful dialogue has been consumed by partisan division and hostile disputes. If we are to move forward, we must find our way back to the ideals that shaped both our country and civilization itself: open exchange of ideas, vigorous yet respectful debate, and a genuine regard for the beliefs and traditions of others.
This challenge extends to the media. While it was founded with the mission of informing the public and fostering discussion on the issues of the day, too often it has become a platform that amplifies the very partisanship tearing our society apart.
George Washington warned that the primary danger in politics is partisanship. Today, that danger extends far beyond politics - threatening the fabric of our communities. When we reduce every issue to "us vs. them" or "my way vs. the wrong way," we close ourselves off from listening, learning, and ultimately growing, both asindividuals and as a society.
I don't pretend to have a solution to this challenge. But I do believe we each have a responsibility to do our part. At Paramount, we have both a unique opportunity and an obligation as stewards of one of the most iconic and respected news organizations in the world. We are challenging ourselves to do better - recognizing that we have the ability to reach a broad audience and demonstrate constructive, respectful, and bipartisan dialogue in our own work. Our mission is clear: to ensure that this global platform remains a place where people can seek the truth, gain understanding, and engage with the facts. That is our purpose.
With this in mind, I am excited to share that The Free Press is joining our Company. Since its launch just five years ago, The Free Press, under co-founder Bari Weiss' leadership, has built one of the most dynamic news organizations in the country, one that resonates with audiences of all ages and perspectives. Guided by their core values of truth, balance, and an exchange of ideas, the team has made it their mission to help restore public trust in the news - and they are delivering real results. Their dedication to independent and fearless reporting has won the devotion of some 1.5 million readers - more than 170,000 of them who are now paid subscribers - an extraordinary achievement in such a short time.As part of this acquisition, Bari will become editor-in-chief of CBS News. She brings a passion for reaching broad audiences through rigorous, fact-based reporting and a relentless commitment to amplifying voices from all corners of the spectrum. This, combined with her restless desire to build, believe, and innovate, makes her a perfect fit for our storied news division. In these early days working together, I've seen the Bari who you will get to know: a person of incredible energy, judgment, and perception for what will resonate with audiences. Working alongside our exceptionally talented colleagues at CBS News, she will help ensure that our reporting remains relevant, accessible, and - most importantly - trusted in this new era for American media.
I am confident that, in the coming years, CBS News and The Free Press will make big strides and be at the forefront of a much-needed transformation in how news is gathered, reported, and delivered. Our goal is to broaden our reach while solidifying our position as a leading voice in American journalism. Every step of the way, trust and facts will remain our guiding principles as we work every day to strengthen and deepen our connection with our audience.
As a news organization, we serve a vital role in the lives of Americans from every background and belief, and we embrace that responsibility with the utmost care, integrity, and purpose. We aim to do our part in helping rebuild a society where our shared humanity unites us and wherework every day to strengthen and deepen our connection with our audience.
As a news organization, we serve a vital role in the lives of Americans from every background and belief, and we embrace that responsibility with the utmost care, integrity, and purpose. We aim to do our part in helping rebuild a society where our shared humanity unites us, and where our differences become a source of strength rather than division.
We are here to achieve great things together. So please join me in extending a warm welcome to Bari and the entire team from The Free Press as they join us on that journey.
Let's go!
David
