How is ", there is a lot of antisemitism on the left, has been for years" not saying it's a huge problem.

Quibble about words if you must, but why make a callout thread if you don't think it's an important or huge problem?

'I was wrong. My apologies'. would've been a better answer.

Now you just come off as a genocide apologist.

If you only like idol shows if they're not really about idols, you don't actually like idol shows.

Normally like Simonson's writing but after Stern's stellar run this was a disappointment.
