He’s proof that you don’t have to be conservative or even political to be labeled “right” by the mainstream. As far as I know he’s a self help guru for young men, with a pattern of questionable behavior. The “for young men” part makes him a fixture of the right wing.

[Renauda]

No, he’s just another media whore and narcissist whose behaviour extends beyond questionable and into the world of criminal.

Yes it is, woke to Islamic fanaticism.

"Apparent death" - those are called "executions."

"Custody"- is frequently called "kidnapping."

"Miliants" - in this case, "terrorists."

Democracy dies in euphemisms.

The Post and the NYT are mere shadows of what they once were.

If you say biological sex exists and is immutable you are “literally a Nazi”, but if you chant “gas the Jews” you’re a social justice activist.

Speaking of foul reactions, one thing I fear, especially as the war intensifies in Gaza itself, is that we’ll see small-scale but potentially deadly attacks on Jews around the world.

In some countries (Poland and Germany) demonstrating in support of terrorists (Hamas) is illegal and the police will intervene.

Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman on Tuesday roundly objected to a controversial statement from a group of Harvard University student organizations solely blaming Israel’s occupation of Gaza for Hamas’ weekend attack on Israel, calling for the names of the students to be released in an effort not to hire them.
