Shameful credulousness to feature this and treat it as serious. Actively anti-consumer to report on it in this manner, to promote it, and to treat it as real. The tech media should take up arms against this

Gen X: The Only Generation of American Women to Live With Rights My name is Jess and I was a high school Literature teacher for 16 years until I decided to run as a Democrat in a rural, red district in Missouri. I bring you news and politics from Missouri and beyon...

I will turn 50 this September. I was born in 1975, and I represent the only generation of American women born with full rights that have been lost in the same lifetime.
My generation has witnessed anti-progress. A cultivated backpedal.

Fox News Can’t Admit Jewish Identity of Anti-Israel Protesters In its coverage of Jewish Voice for Peace’s Trump Tower protest, Fox News obscured the Jewish identity of protestersβ€”while echoing antisemitic conspiracy theories and racist tropes.

As Jewish solidarity with Palestinians facing genocide does not fit the narrative that pro-Palestine protests are inherently antisemitic, Fox’s all-day coverage of the Trump Tower protest cast doubt on the Jewish identity of Jewish Voice for Peace.

Pope Francis Obits Omit Focus on Palestine The obituaries for Pope Francis in the leading US newspapers ignored the late pontiff’s commitment to the Palestinian people.

The lengthy obituaries in the most prominent US newspapers ignored Pope Francis' advocacy for Palestinian rights. By contrast, it was not hard to find references to Gaza in Francis’ obituaries in major non-US English-language outlets.

It wasn't too many words. It was a concise explanation.

The even shorter version for everyone in the back is coming. Chris Murphy wasn't writing for them. It was for us to explain to everyone else.

That was WAY too many words to say: Trump is firing ppl and imposing tariffs and economic hardship for the sole purpose of punishing those who will not pledge loyalty.

Thanks for posting ❀️

I was ripped to shreds on #CNN for standing up for the safety of the American military before Hegseth was hired. Told I was a β€œdisgrace” who should be β€œashamed of myself”, berated through the commercial break and threatened with defamation. Look where we are now.

Biden used his power of parole to offer Americans to legally sponsor immigrants who were crossing the border from the 4 most popular countries. These cases would then be processed at the point of arrival (airport), not the Southern border, get work permits etc. This didn't make the news at the time

Do better teaching your sons how to be good people, good men, good citizens.
Take the game systems away
Encourage them to socialize
Clamp down hard on bullying and misogyny

Investigation: We tried to buy American chips as a Russian defense manufacturer β€” and it worked Despite bans put in place by the U.S. and Europe on the supply of electronic components to Russia, dozens of Russian microelectronics suppliers continue to obtain and resell imported chips to Russian ...

Without Western chips, Russia would not be able to produce key weapons. To prove that this line of supply continues despite bans from the U.S. and Europe, the Kyiv Independent tried ordering American microchips from Russian trading companies.
