Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

Trump-endorsed serial sex pest, elder killer, racist islamophobe, embezzler and nepo-baby Andrew Cuomo, running the worst campaign imaginable, still got 40% of the vote. Not coincidentally, 37.5% of NYC are demographically "white." Not coincidentally, NYC has insignificant voter suppression.

Another MSNBC genius. Let us guess: You put ethno-supremacist child mass murder and genocide inside the tent, didn't you. What you fail to grasp: Financing fascism abroad results in fascism coming home. Always.
Folks demanding political / ideological purity fail to see that this is no longer a movement belonging to the left / liberals. This is an opposition against fascism. By definition it must be big tent. Failure to grasp this: see divided oppositions in Eastern Europe as your failed examples.
