My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

There’s a good chance the British Prime Minister’s main adviser on AI is an OpenAI shareholder - but the government refuses to say whether she is.

ADL's Greenblatt used to pride himself on converting, for lack of a better term, high-profile folks who he deemed to be insensitive to Jews. "Counsel culture, not cancel culture," Greenblatt called it.
This is different. Perhaps because Mamdani is not looking to ADL for some sort of absolution.

A ‘Mamdani Monitor’?? Zohran RESPONDS to the ADL’s Jonathan Greenblatt for vowing to “track” his admin for antisemitism.
“I have some doubts in Jonathan's ability to do so honestly, given that he previously said I had not visited any synagogues only to have to correct himself.”

The crankier Israeli ministers came right out instantly saying that the plan was to huge reduce the population the Gaza Strip then herd the remainder into a human zoo. And that’s what happened. This is among the worst war crimes, we established at Nuremberg you get hanged for participating in it.

It's easy to look at journalists and think, wow these people all fucking suck at their jobs. Instead of asking whether you are simply mistaken about what their jobs actually are.
Just like police, or "failing institutions," you're seeing the system working exactly as intended.

Every single time a billionaire turns out to be a sex trafficker or collector of used zyklon B cannisters or such, a fuckton of journalists and business leaders etc come out of the woodwork to go "yeah I went there 10 years ago, thought it was weird af"
