Whenever I see men post this I think about how when women are lonely, it's not pitied. It's used to chastise them for not being nicer to men. Meanwhile, when men are experiencing a "loneliness epidemic" they decide the answer is *also* that women should be nicer to men.

The obvious problem I have with a “new left party” is that it doesn’t exist, and if it does come to be, is too late already. Do something now, don’t just wait for an amorphous thing to appear
The super rich have more power than ever before.
The old political parties have utterly failed. They've made things worse.
We don't have time to mess around.

The government does not want Israelis to know, because these stories would strengthen public demand to release the hostages in return to ending the war.
In Israel, the hostages' cause is anti-war.
While abroad, their cause is cynically used to give cover for the continuation of the war.
