Well, the ADL self-censoring because Elon Musk didn't like them calling out hate groups could not have come on a more appropriate day than Yom Kippur.

I kinda feel that if a lake cannot freeze at ambient temperatures at any time of year in your locale, you really shouldn't get to have an NHL team. That being said, congratulations Florida Panthers, on your Stanley Cup win. Again! 😁

The RFK Jr. version of health, where health creates health and healthy people don't get sick and the thing that keeps you healthy is /living the right way/ is very seductive to a lot of people. It also places the burden of illness back on the ill, which decreases the value of human life.

Bees play a critical role in food production. In addition to making honey, they pollinate 75% of the fruits, nuts & vegetables grown in the US—$15 billion worth of crops. "If we lose 80% of our bees every year, the industry cannot survive.”

Millions of bees have died this year. It's "the worst bee loss in recorded history," one beekeeper says.
Bees play a key role in the U.S. food supply, and the mass deaths could jeopardize that.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

It's truly amazing we've reached the level of cybersecurity where China has hacked so many US telecom companies that the US government is now recommending the general public uses end-to-end encrypted messaging (something they spent the last 10+ years trying to ban "because terrorism").

Let me get this straight: Elon Musk threw a Nazi salute and the Anti-Defamation League defended it as an "awkward gesture" and called for "grace" towards him. Thankfully we have Al Jazeera to, in no uncertain terms, call it out for exactly what it was and the dangers it represents.

The defence of Elon Musk’s salute is a symptom of a much deeper problem
There is a renewed attempt in the US, Europe and beyond to minimise and sanitise the horrors of Nazism.
