I just saw Galloway say that his friends and colleagues in Tel Aviv say that:

1. There is a lot of destruction
2. Israel is imposing incredible and punitive censorship

It's difficult to know what's true.

Americans generally are getting sick of Israel's bullshit. Polls back this.

Israel can ramp up the corruption and increase rightful resentment and anger or they can change course. But they won't change course with Netanyahu leading.

Thanks. For some reason I thought that they had been purchased and allowed to die, like Wildstorm.

I love this and it's needed. DC bought up Milestone and then allowed it to die. I find that baffling.

I completely agree, but yes, a large portion of our population are incredibly stupid and chronically misinformed. Look at discussion groups for just about any area of Canada, especially large towns and down. The bigotry and ignorance is incredibly disheartening.

He is unable to stop being an unrelenting, lying asshole. An absolutely trivial troll. Loathsome man.

At the same time as #DCsowhite is trending, DC gets Otto Schmidt, artist of nazi imagery and pedophilia, to work on new material for them.

I have over 100,000 pages of DC material in my collection, but lately even I have been considering boycotting them.

The Ellisons will destroy that company.

If Iran had killed over 100 Israeli children, the media would be discussing it for years to come. Zionists would fund scholarships named after the dead children around the world and other nations would memorialize the murdered children annually.

But it's fine for Israel to kill children.

The weird Snyder cult has shown that no one can beat a dead horse like themselves. They just won't fucking let it go.

Right now, they're probably coordinating online to buy a billboard in Kansas or something.

I collect Superman collections. I try to be really, really choosy about the older collections that I pick up, because the prices inflate severely after a few years.

I looked at that one and immediately thought, "I really should own that. For my collection..."

I'm so weak.

The front cover of the New History of the DC Universe, The Dakota Incident. Lex Luthor is up top. Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman are on the left side. Milestone characters Icon, Iron Butterfly, Static and Hardware are on the right.

My son and I walked through the Ottawa cold and we went to Nefarious Comics on Bank Street so that I could pick up Mark Waid's The Dakota Incident. Was it too cold today? Yes. Yes it was. Am I really happy to have grabbed such a cool new title? That is also a yes.

She knows better, but she doesn't care about the truth. She cares that the messaging pipeline is unchallenged.

"Of all the children we have murdered recently, this was definitely more," declared an Israeli spokesperson.

The NYT is bravely condemning Iran for putting children in schools where Israeli missiles were forced to land. Tragic, really, that Iran forced Israel to murder even more children. Tragic and unavoidable.

If an Iranian missile managed to take out Tarantino, the lack of eulogizing would be hilarious.

"Tarantino Dead. World Declares That It Hated That Fucker."

The subheading would be, "Price of Feet Pics Crashes."

Israelis No Longer Ahead in Americans' Middle East Sympathies Israelis no longer lead the Palestinians in Americans' sympathies, with independents' shift toward the Palestinians driving most of the change.

Average Americans are finally, despite decades-long and unrelentingly dishonest Zionist pressure campaigns, no longer favoring the genocidal aggressors.

Fuck me, there is going to be so much tut-tutting in the press.

The UCP voters are pretty shitty people. And apparently, very stupid.

"But I voted conservative because..."

Because you're a bigot and you're low-information.

There are a lot of "moderates" spouting hilarious hasbara today.

Just admit that you are fine with a foreign entity dictating major policy for your country. You're AOK with American youth dying for Israel.

Israeli foreign interference in Canada has been unchallenged for decades. And it has been blatant.

She and Kash don't argue. When they disagree with each other, they just spit at one another. Not in a hot way. There's an agent at the FBI whose job is just to clean the phlegm off the walls of the FBI jet.

Unsurprisingly, Kash Patel's girlfriend is stupid. Like really, really stupid. Painfully stupid. She probably causes brain freeze in normal adults just by looking at them.

She's a country singer. I've never heard her, but I know, with no doubt, that her lyrics are really stupid.

Ellison's failson can oversee the corpses for two networks bought with daddy's money. He can make increasingly stupid decisions and probably sink Warners in just a few years. DC, home of Superman and Batman for nearly 90 years can be pushed to the right and collapse as no one buys the material.

So are CNN and CBS just going to... die off? Wane and become totally irrelevant? Fox and even more far-right networks have the far right. They're not going to peel off that audience. CBS and CNN are going to hemorrhage viewers. Even the centrists won't stick around. Everyone hates the Ellisons.

No one actually likes Matthew Yglesias, do they? If he's married, his spouse probably pisses on Matt's side of the bed. His children try to hit him with claw hammers and justify it that Matt is punchable. His coworkers laugh maniacally then suddenly fall silent when Matt gets near.

I found myself wondering, "Why type of medical doctor is he?" Hobbes has two MAs in Arts. So he's a podcast bro who is probably unable to grasp a single medical research paper. But hey, his background in... European Studies... qualifies him as a medical expert. Kinda? Or maybe not at all.

This is pure, distilled cruelty. In Canada, it is carried out by Poilievre, Smith et al. because they are utter wretches, whose supporters are lost, vicious souls.

I do not believe in a hell. The torments that they deserve have to be inflicted in this life or not at all.

The only reason that parties, the NYT and media generally and huge swathes of our citizens are trying to attack trans people, is because they are morally horrific. Rorty said that cruelty is the worst thing we do. Cruelty is the intentional infliction of suffering to please the one inflicting it.

Poilievre is going on-in on racism. That party is loathsome. They are so full of bad policy and horrible people that they literally cannot pivot.

The Justice Department, the FBI, the CIA, all knew about and covered up for coordinated, multi-decade child rape. That's the bottom line.

The child rape and the rapists were too valuable to expose and prosecute.
