“Who runs the media? Globalists. Time to kill the globalists. I don’t want to not watch CNN. I don’t want CNN to go out of business. I don’t want CNN to be more honest. I want people that run CNN to be arrested and deported or hanged because this is deliberate.”

What is "Globalist"?

[Horace]

The idea that nations should not be competing with one another. And presumably that there would be a mechanism by which this cooperation between nations would be enforced.

AI Overview
The term "globalist" is widely recognized as an antisemitic dog whistle or coded word when used in certain political and conspiratorial contexts. The idea that Jews act as "globalists" is a modern manifestation of long-standing conspiracy theories alleging a secret international Jewish circle plotting for world domination or control over global finance, governments, and media.

That’s AI not me, I’m more of flat earther myself.

[Horace]

That's a far cry from what chatGPT said. It did acknowledge that in certain contexts it can carry the implication of antisemitism, but that was a corner usage. Perhaps not so corner in certain places in punditry.

Good for him. More people need to say this stuff very clearly, and stop this growing trend toward the Fuentes-brigade.

Megyn replied too. Putting it back here to keep the topic consolidated.

When your conspiracy theory is too much for Alex Jones.

The ‘op’.

Wishing it will all go away before the primary in 2027. I’m not so confident it will.

[jon-nyc]

Megyn with more opinions.

Im just enjoying the scrum.

[Horace]

That's certainly fair enough.

I appreciated today's VDH show. He spends the first 15 minutes going over Israel's value to the US, beyond "just another foreign country". The idea that it's "just another foreign country" underpins all of Tucker's or Dave Smith's rhetoric against US support of it. If I had ever bought into that notion, I would have agreed with them, but I never did. VDH provides some details of why it's not reasonable to think of Israel as just another foreign country.
