The Covid pandemic was a litmus test. Ever wondered who, should real fascism come to your country, would click their heels and salute the Dear Leader? Covid let you know. October 7 was a litmus test, too: a litmus test of basic decency. Everyone likes to brag that they would
As we all know, simply reporting the news is way down on the list of the mainstream media’s priorities, these days. Their first priorities are speaking lies for power, and, above all else, maintaining narratives. But, every so often, something slips through. Sometimes, it’s a standard “gotcha” interview
David Cole likens it to the old Jewish folk tale of the Golem: Jews create a monster out of mud, the monster runs amok and ultimately turns on its makers. In Cole’s metaphor for contemporary American politics, the mud-men terrorising America’s Jews are the twin monsters of the
