If you want to know what it was like for Jews to be kidnapped in broad daylight by their governments and that then to become just normal life, now you know.

Yes, and the next time you all freak about my "be careful with words" pedantry, this is the dire result of 20 years of calling everything "terrorism," something I objected to long ago for the same reasons that I carp about fascism, etc.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.

In late 2020 a Chinese man called Guan Heng travelled to Xinjiang with our BuzzFeed map of detention facilities to provide ground truth for our work - he provided the first corroborating evidence for many sites. He escaped to the US - then ICE detained him.

So sad to see that "crony capitalism with a body count" isn't working as well for the NRA these days. In addition to thoughts and prayers, I invite those ghouls to cut down on their office expenses by fleeing Fairfax County--which would have the added advantage of removing an eyesore from I-66.
