John, we used to know each other. Stop this illegal war we are fighting for Israel!
im starting to think the woke mind virus wasnt actually the biggest threat to civilization
agree. Also, the Israel lobby has made the word "anti-semitism" meaningless. It now means, "criticized Israel in a way that hurt zionists's feelings."
Thank you for writing this! Uncomfortable topic but needs to be addressed.
a cabinet of lunatics, rapists, and freaks
thank you for making me laugh

Netanyahu never gave two shits about antisemitism. That's what is going on. It was only ever about amassing power and land.

Relatedly, it was always clear that the "Karen" epithet, used by Left and Right alike, was a way of mocking and suppressing feminist critiques.
Also, can we talk about how the media (nytimes, Atlantic, etc) spent all of 2024 wringing their hands over the supposed scourge of “antisemitic,” leftwing campus activism re Gaza (because one 20 yr old used the word ‘intifada’), while *actual* Nazis were busy plotting a takeover of the U.S. gov’t?
Trump/Hegseth/Rubio killed 40 Venezuelan civilians two days ago. They've been murdering random fishermen for weeks.
Think about that. Really think about that. Think about shaking the hand of someone responsible for that. Think about writing a news article about them and not mentioning that.
Yeah, Lucy Dacus' performance was good, but Sarah Goldstone isn't getting nearly enough love for playing the omnichord in sub-freezing weather without gloves.

It’s real
Bari Weiss has never cared a wit about free speech--only protecting Israel and (more recently) the Trump administration.
As an undergraduate at Columbia, she tried to get a professor fired for the crime of being Palestinian. She has never given a wit about free speech--that was always, merely cover for her *preferred* speech.

A senior academic using mentoring as leverage to obtain sex is a contemptible abuser of power.
Shame on The New York Times, @andrewrsorkin.bsky.social and @NicholasKristof for presiding over this vile DealBook panel discussion on Dec 3 featuring @Ehud Barak, the former Israeli p.m. and "friend of Jeffrey" who raped and beat to a pulp teenaged Virginia Giuffre. (So much for "cancel culture.")
OK, regardless of source, credit where due: That's a great headline.
There’s something we don’t know. In his blind obeisance to Trump, Johnson has made obsolete his own job. What’s in it for him?
This is a beautiful (and slightly terrifying) essay. A good reminder good health is a gift...
“When one is unwell, it becomes even more apparent that what matters most is love, and the rest is largely noise.” Lucinda Rosenfeld writes about the resurgence of her multiple sclerosis.

Not just domestic abuse but out and out rape
The gap between ICE’s story and Franklin Park body cam footage is alarming. A man is dead, shot and killed by federal agents—and the public deserves the truth. Just like at the Broadview detention center, we need answers, accountability, and transparency.

More like the 1850s.
Some of us distanced ourselves decades ago. It’s slightly laughable that Friedman only figured out that Israel is a rogue, apartheid state on Friday.
