In case you needed a clearer picture of just how racist the management at the NYT is, the eugenics guy who was the SOLE SOURCE of the Zohran smear is now the Arbiter of who is Black and who isn't, the same way Donald Trump is the Arbiter of who is Jewish and who isn't. Wild shit man.

36 Hours in Accra, Ghana

Stephanie Lepp suggested on TED stage a compromise to culture war topic of "gender" to have kids develop healthier body image from less social media, so that the social contagion could stop, and that doctors should stop profiting off the trans phenomenon so society could support the "truly trans".

Malliotakis: We try to get to the bottom of where this money is going, $50 million for condoms in Gaza, for example. These are real things!

They just really can’t live without us, can they?
SAD!
