South Korea bully protest

vendredi 10 novembre 2017 à 01:00

Thousands of South Koreans protested the arrival of the bully. They don't want him starting a war in their country.

Guns designed for war

Most massacres in the US are carried out with guns designed for war. Why does the US keep allowing people to buy and own them?

US stock market

The US stock market has gone up a lot — but that doesn't mean good news for most Americans. It means that dooH niboR is very successful.

Machover readmitted

vendredi 10 novembre 2017 à 01:00

The Labour Party grudgingly readmitted Moshé Machover, after many members protested that his support for Palestinians' rights is not antisemitism.

My mother told me about the antisemitism she experienced as a girl. After Easter, her fellows students, some of them normally her friends, would run after her as a mob shouting "Christ-killer."

In the 1930s, antisemitism in the US was not hidden. There were clubs that did not allow Jews in, and places Jews were not allowed to live. (This partially resembled the way blacks were treated.) After the holocaust, antisemitism became socially unacceptable, so I have hardly ever encountered it. Maybe the bully and his friends have brought it back.

Supporting the rights of Palestinians is not antisemitism.

Disney media boycott

vendredi 10 novembre 2017 à 01:00

Disney punished the LA Times for negative coverage by barring its reporters from movie previews. Many other reporters responded by saying they wouldn't go either, and Disney backed down.

The CEO of Disney seems to have political ambitions. Perhaps he was inspired by the bully. I don't think we should elect him.
