I disagree with you most of the time but I’ve always found what you have to say to be very interesting but after crossing into antisemitic conspiracy theories I can not in all good conscience financially support you.

What the fuck, antisemitic inference are you making? Calling a spade a spade is somehow a comment on anyone’s place of worship.

Fuck off you Bebe Netanyahu fellation tool

Calling Israelis genocidal is nothing more than blood libel.

Expand full comment

It’s nothing less than the truth and I’ll add it applies to a huge swathe of non Israeli jews. Kind of shocking to realize nearly a whole community is that bent on murder for land.

That is Santa, correct? Israeli’s are not but the Israeli government certainly is.

If you don’t see it, that way, you have no business in the conversation.

None of that ancillary bullshit excuses Israel’s actions. Take that nonsense elsewhere. We’re through here.

Not relevant. The past has been crimes against humanity. Genocide is the current paradigm. Your bias and unannounced agenda is sad.

Your fucking constant victimhood is pathetic. You don’t know genocide. Talk to the first peoples of the Americas. They suffered like you don’t even understand. Entire nations were eliminated before their contact with Europeans. Art, languages, and every single person. Go the fuck away.

Says the Netanyahu Putin silicone ship fellation tool. Calling the Netanyahu terrorist Cabal genocidal is simply, nothing more nothing less than reality.

Wink, tell him what he didn’t win !

Acknowledging Palestinian’s humanity is the lowest form of anti-semitism!

Ask yourself what your reasons are for not liking Bari Weiss. She is an honest, liberal, hard working, skilled journalist. Are you waiting for a certain percentage if your type of acceptable person to denounce the hatred? Woke people have zero solutions - the movement is run by sophomoric fame lovers. 99% of y’all are following what you perceive to be trendy, no courage anywhere on your movement.

Who will stand up for the wealthy and powerful? Who will amplify their voices? Who will fight tooth and nail to preserve their legacy? Who will shine the boots those ready to spit in your face and call it love. You will.

Something like that. Except you’re obviously looking in the mirror when you make that claim. Pretty good attempted projection

Silence is anti-Semitism? I know a pant-load when I hear it.

Expand full comment

Silence is facilitating crimes against humanity and genocide.

It has nothing to do with anyone’s faith, place of worship, or the word in which it is labeled.

I also know anti-Semitism when it rears it's ugly head.

To be fair, Bari Weiss is a great writer and conveyor of narratives. In fact, it was a real let down a few years back when she started doing post-production work on her podcast to add dramatic and artistic effect. But here, several years after hearing her in so many podcasts and genuinely appreciating her perspective on the most obvious, emergent tragedies caused by the Great Awokening (across what we ironically called the liberal establishment(, I too have grown especially tired of the ceaseless commentary and profuse antagonism from her Free Press. To be fair (once more), I will only suggest Bari has been living in her own, very real filter bubble just as many other political characters have. While she’s not yet come into her own Anne Coulter or Michael Moore persona, it’s true that what I am suggesting is that effectively, Bari has transformed like so many others, from thoughtful intellectual to overly thoughtful politician who happens to also be selling subscriptions, building an empire. And, I too have troubled with much of her platform as of late.

The free press, sadly, has become the “I oppose the current thing” (not all the time) from a “liberal” perspective.

Expand full comment

Congratulations. You identified a distinction between mainstream and alternative.

Expand full comment

You couldn’t even name a platform that falls under the category of “Free Press”

Any corporate sponsored media of any type is a carefully constructed narrative light-years from “Free Press” get a grip

Expand full comment

Because, she has the temerity to contradict your bullshit narrative. Wow

Expand full comment

Temerity? Hey Trip - you sound like you must be from a long line of esteemed “Hudson Baldwins”, but I can only guess your grandpa (or great grandpa with pen in hand, putting a stern but steady thought to paper) actually read the comments he bothered to respond to in his evening journal or, he certainly made sure it was properly addressed, to the correct recipient. We all await your deep response! Until then, go and clean your room.

Not respecting vocabulary is why you only have three followers……

If you offer nothing but ad hominem bullshit, sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up.

What Weiss does so well, and why I think she’s successful despite no discernible writing or thinking talents, is obfuscate information to manipulate our social-media addled brains.

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

This article was off to a great start, but claiming that Israel is committing genocide is a bit much IMHO. The Netanyahu regime is hardly saintly or angelic, to put it mildly, but is not even in the same league as Hamas, who is far, far worse. The latter literally uses their own people, including children, as human shields and prevents them from evacuating, all while refusing to release but a token number of Israeli hostages.

Expand full comment

Sorry, that is entirely incorrect. Every single word. The Netanyahu Cabal is the largest terrorist in the Middle East, quite possibly the world. They are committing genocide.

The narrative about human shield is bullshit. It is the IDF that will not let anyone exit.

Last and most important. October 7 was a false flag. Obviously not committed by Hamas directly, or exclusively.

You’ve adopted the narrative of a Netanyahu cocksleeve agitprop sock puppet.

I love Bari. Sorry not sorry. She and I don't agree on everything including entirely on this issue but suggesting she's ill informed or a poor communicator is simply sour grapes. She has *you* talking about her doesn't she? I'll also give her this: She's the only person who has the conviction and the courage to openly talk about things that are shaping people's lives whether they like it or not, and to allow others to do the same. And she's increasingly correct about at least one thing: she can't be canceled.

I agree that she's a very charming and brilliant communicator. There's a reason she's so successful. It's not sour grapes, I'm happy with my lack of professional success! I think the ideology she peddles is harmful.

Expand full comment

Just what is that ideology? You can’t be spewing bullshit without at least identifying it let alone offering an alternative. Lame af!

Expand full comment

Btw it helps that she comes from money and connections. Some of the so called woke folks in media with a similar background will at least admit it. The “courageous” journalists are reporting from war zones and risking their lives, not the Op Ed writers.

Expand full comment

The majority of OpEd pieces are not “journalism”

And, the ones that are you don’t give any credibility because someone left of Mussolini must be a communist …..

For the record, as if anyone was asking, Weis’s “J. K. Rowling is Right” podcast didn’t lose me as a reader, her insensitivity, and shitty headlines did. If I wanted opinion pieces with little information I’d just read the Washington Post.

Expand full comment

🤣 just what kind of media do you consume? I’m not seeing the post it sounds great example of the Free Press because it’s not but, I’m positive it’s closer to that ideal than most other traditional newspapers. Turn off #NewsForDumbFox

As a socialist myself I think we all know that the ONLY person that should be allowed to determine who is and isn’t in college is absolutely the sorting hat! When this country finally falls and is rebuilt as a glorious socialist utopia someone will have to decide things about education (caste is inevitable in our imaginations of said system! Inevitable!). People with money should have no say. People with bureaucratic power though? I salivate at the thought!! Can we please have a minister of sorting hats in this new and glorious future we all aspire to! and can I be it?

Despite my comment above, I actually think self-critique is a very good characteristic. God knows the Right is certainly lacking that capacity - at scale any way. If only the current, justified schism on the Left could be better implemented on the Right, I’d grab my popcorn. Baris team are in their flow state: I don’t expect there to be too much self-awareness going on but I trust that she is sensing her own wandering within a hall of mirrors.
