Right I feel like I’m going insane here

You’re wondering why Bill Kristol might not be outraged about the US toppling a dictator with no plan for what happens after? Just want to make sure I understand here

2023 is back baby! Wide leg jeans, exposed thongs, doctored evidence, neocons and regime change. Greet me as liberator behind the hot topic baby.

Well he does love Putin, so not surprising to see him invade and create an independent country as a city state. I’m sure he expects the Venezuelan people to greet the US as liberators too. What a farce

the fact that you are willing to lump all people of a religion together as baby killers and say “who cares” is the point. I’m old enough to remember after 9/11 when Muslims were tagged as terrorists and the hate crimes and harassment began. It wasn’t right then and it isn’t right now.

Are we workshopping a bullet hole through a Star of David as imagery here? The reason non- good faith claims of antisemitism stick is because of good progressive friends that don’t get why the intent doesn’t equal the result. ie; I’m seeing people adopt “zios” freely, like David Duke didn’t coin it.

I just want one scene where they have a side discussion about how amazing Hostess Fruit Pies™️ are.

Yes, we agree that the Israeli govt is awful: But what you’re doing with that post is blaming Jews, full stop. This grouping is the line of thinking behind the Bondi shooters. Despite what the internet thinks, Jews can’t just call Jew corporate and ask to speak to a manager.

Susan, this post is a random Star of David with a bullet hole in it. The message is “the Jews did this” which is plain abhorrent, and wouldn’t be said toward another nation with a religious majority. Israel, like the US, has a criminal in charge, and courts nor massive protests have stopped them.

Ah, there’s those famous Bluesky vibes

But the station is disused and a lovely but impractical relic. That’s not the best metaphor

Aside from everything else wrong about this, a reminder that providing direct support to voters = votes. The Covid checks with trumps name on them was a factor in a nonzero amount of voter goodwill toward him

This has to as bad - if not worse than the Pickle Moonshine

Oh my god you guys with this again. give it a rest already

Is shilling for the new boss something new and radical? It seems like the oldest thing there ever was
December 25, 2025 at 1:53 AM
Well not the first time. It only appears there after checking all other pockets and coming back to it

Permits and congestion pricing in manhattan yes. More mass transit, hell yes. But bike people without cars in boroughs love to have opinions about how others conduct their lives. Not everyone wants to ride a bike or strap their kids into a bike to live here.

Yup the personal guarantee was a WB demand. Ellison really really wants this company. I’m sure the dictate went out to Bari to shelve anything that might make Trump mad, particularly at 60 minutes.
December 24, 2025 at 2:09 PM
Reminder she pulled it night before it was announced Ellison was putting in 40m of his own money to resurrect his bid
December 23, 2025 at 11:40 PM
I will die on this hill: Bari Weiss didn’t do it on her own, it came from Ellison to avoid Trump nuking the WB deal
December 23, 2025 at 11:37 PM
The fun part is that Bari sucks but this 100% came from Ellison, knowing that this story would make Trump nuke any chance of him buying WB

Great! He should be as visible about it as possible. He can’t resist it, and the public loves to see the richest man in the world come and say hi after ripping apart the structures of govt. come and shake hands amongst the people
