Well, the NYT is probably lost forever. Beyond redemption.
Do you still pay for a subscription?
They may be beyond redemption, but it would be a mistake to consider them abnormal or wacky. They are populist American culture.

@Horace The insane thing is that culture is becoming a proxy for politics. (It's not that far upstream anymore)
I have to believe this is a new phenomena... that is peoples' politics being a super important part of their identity.
Politics identity instead of mere identity politics.

Great post, Horace: One of those types of posts you often make where I need to read it a couple of times, and then I get it. You have a unique ability to interpret what's going on at a higher level.

Read the thread.
NYT: "Our membership is committed to restructuring our workplace to eliminate inequity and discrimination so that we can do our best journalism."
And the connection would be?
Must repeat often to self: This is NOT Babylon Bee. This is NOT Babylon Bee . . .

Thanks Rainman. I appreciate your thoughtful compliment, and I look forward to your forthcoming thoughtful insult.

For TNCR to eliminate inequity and discrimination so that we can do our best posting and opinionating, we must have a strong presence of green circles containing X's or H's. We are fortunate to have both.
