The fact of the matter is that we would not accept any of these incidents if it was done by U.S. forces. When blackwater killed Iraqi civilians it was a national outrage. This occurs weekly in Gaza and the West Bank and it’s met with indifference to what our military aid is supporting.

Healey's "they've made mistakes" rhetoric is weak. No, Governor Healey, ICE is trying to terrorize immigrant communities, and you have been doing next nothing to stand up for them. www.wgbh.org/news/politic...

All the people who were extremely proud of saying "I may not agree with what you're saying but I will defend your right to say it" suddenly seem to have forgotten those words

As I've said before, what we're dealing with fundamentally here, and have been dealing with for some time, is evil. Our political norms and political media prohibit talking about a mainstream political faction this way. But it is the truth. It needs to be known and it needs to be said.

Your periodic reminder that public and media perceptions of crime have almost nothing to do with the actual incidence of crime or the likelihood of being a crime victim, but rather are almost entirely driven by the existence of visible homeless people.

Why does Assumption only make the news now because an admin or professor has ludicrously bad political opinions or because the students kidnapped someone? Do better, Assumption!

I am obviously no fan of cops, and want to take traffic enforcement away from armed racists, but I am in fact personally a cop about speeding and reckless driving myself. It fucking sucks and I hate it!!

I still can’t believe those morons called it the “big beautiful bill.” Is it too much to ask for the fascists in control of the government to have more taste in their naming of their evil plans?

Some advice to the doom and gloom crowd who wanna speedrun straight to armed rebellion/dystopic hoarding - if I can’t trust you to show up to city council meetings and give public comment, what the fuck makes you think I’m going to trust you with a weapon at my back?

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

This somehow might be the weirdest story in the city right now. Is she gonna start doing live reads during the council meetings? “Mistah Managah, as we plan for the next fiscal year we shouldn’t forget about planning for next week’s meals with today’s sponsor, hellofresh!”

"I love living in a city, but I hate dealing with other people. I shouldn’t be subject to the whims of my neighbors, something I constantly scream at them during City Council meetings."

This is all comically stupid, and will make going to pay our water bill or whatever an enormous pain in the ass

the thing about a demand that literally everyone restrict their analysis to what would be electorally beneficial to the democrats is that this is how you get starmerism, which is doomed to collapse into a state worse than trumpism the moment that the UK has another election

Genuinely appreciated how Worcester Business Journal spent basically the entirety of Eric Batista’s Power 100 profile reading him for filth because of the WPD, including an absolutely hilarious pull-quote from him. That’s why they’re doing some of the best local journalism in the city
