  1. #GloriaSteinem, a #feminist icon, died yesterday. RIP. Here's a gift article for her obituary in The Atlantic magazine. I'll leave you with an instructive quote from the article about how girl culture is an insidious force controlling women's lives to their detriment, something Steinem herself was well aware of.

    Needing approval, [Steinem] wrote, “is a female cultural disease, and often a sign of doing the wrong thing.”

    Netanyahu's got an "8th front" going - he's looking to do #ReputationLaundering and convince folk that it wasn't genocide but instead that the slaughter and starvation of innocents was legal.

    People pay an aweful lot to get their reputation laundered. Countries who've done genocide probably a whole lot more.
    #TomNicols might not even know that he's doing $Hasbara
    Here's #AnneApplebaum, also at #TheAtlantic. Maybe also unaware.

    This'd be the second reported shut-off by #Musk?

    Wonder if what looked exactly like a #ReputationLaundering campaign will kick in again and have respected journalists and publications like #AnneApplebaum and #TheAtlantic putting out more exonerations of Musk shutting off data based on very flimsy evidence?

    Amazing what billions of dollars can buy.

    And is Musk a RU asset? Or is there a more #QuidProQuo relationship?

    Oh come on - The Onion is meant to be satire.

    "Elon throws tantrum, fires folks" is expected behaviour, not satire.

    Is this categorising of Musk' s expected behaviour as being somehow "different and remarkable" part of some ongoing #ReputationLaundering campaign?

    If so then sorry to see #TheOnion has been corrupted just like #TheGuardian and the #TheAtlantic.

    Nicht nur der Antisemitismus und die Kriegstreiberei sowie der Zweck heiligt die Mittel stehen in roten Lettern quer über #AlHusseini|s Vita.
    Auch der #Nepotismus, die #Geldgier und das streben nach #Macht.
    Ich bin kein Psychologe, würde jedoch vermuten, dass er auch zu diesen "schwarzen Narzisten" gehört, die vor einer Weile in einem #TheAtlantic-Artikel ausgelobt wurden.
