Michelle takes no shit, brooks no nonsense, and will have none of it. She is my gd hero.
The discussion on sibling bonds is so touching. Thank you, Carlos!
Sounds like 3/5 personhood to me
Shame on all of you. Shame on every single one of you. You know, one thing these two weeks revealed to me, is how deceptive, and filled with propaganda the western media is. Eventually, the truth prevails and I’ll tell you one thing, history won’t forget, it won’t forget your support of colonialism, of massacres and for the continuation of lies. When Palestine is freed, people will look back to these recordings as examples of how the American media completely failed.
Lydia, it’s terrifying for you? How self absorbed can a person be? Thousands of Palestinians are losing their lives in this minute and you’re the one terrified?
Shame on you for not condemning Israel for their war crimes against the Palestinians!! History won’t forget!!
"Dress like grown-ups." Gross.
I considered myself libertarian because I generally like the idea of limited government until 2 things happened: 1) I took enough economics classes to recognize that no market is actually free so basing an entire economic philosophy on trusting the free market is fundamentally flawed. 2) I met other people who call themselves libertarian and quite often they are not actually libertarian, but rather anarchists. I decided I didn't want to associate myself with those people so I stopped using that label to describe myself.
As a Gen-X mom to both Millennial AND Gen-Z kids, I found this conversation fascinating! Thank you, Jane, for hosting such an intriguing and respectful dialog.
the irony of Jane and the nyt team arguing how to use language properly so you can convey a particular message and don't misconstrue and saying English classroom is one of the few places where kids have to wrestle with big ideas (never mind science and shit). I hope i made.multiple.grammar and stylistic faux pas as additional irony points.
Amazing. https://www.dinarrecaps.onl/
Thank you for this!
This podcast episode drove me nuts. No mention that the economic policies supported by Sanders and justice Democrats etc are popular across the political spectrum. No mention of corporate money special interest money and how it muddies the process. Jane Coaston should really have progressive voices like krystal ball and brihana joy gray on to properly articulate this point
I feel like a fair question to be asking here is also can the Democrats and Democratic _li beral_ media _ news information distribution conglomerates recover let alone face similar grievances for the overwhelming amount of "critical" headline world shaking reports prior to his presidency, Andddddd down right underwhelming amount of actual truth and or veracity to the claims (And again the shocking? amount of those are which proven false other is proven irrelevant and further some hahaha this is an interesting trend for another time). lol this argument is just funny. I feel like Jane and the editors are not being let's say very fair over the past few actually episodes really
Fantastic discussion -- another fruitful exchange. Well done, Jane!
bro are you kidding me?? no arguments against the points for Jan 6th, shit was crazy and stupid and they are weirdos. but that line (and general Outlook) that if reps don't win, they call foul ---- uhhh, 2018_2020 (and I'm being generous) was full of deflated arguments against Trump by Dems?? I'm not arguing for either side here but wtf was that Jane
she being 'Michelle' btw
bizarre. she speaks of Trumpism and is totally blind to the Swamp Monster of Shitshow Joe Biden as though there aren't issues on the Left. im in the Left and see them and want to fix them so we can win. is this person a plant? stooge? enemy asset? like just ignore the identity and critical theory and metanarrative post modernist left. not remotely relevant...🤦♂️
this lady is disgusting. so divisive.
