Wow it’s almost like there was a deeply engaged protest movement by college students 2yrs ago that was the largest in 50yrs and the publication you work for—along with every other major outlet—smeared them as antisemites, then they were all systematically kicked out of school.
Thomas Chatterton Williams@thomaschattwill

A lot of the problems in the world right now can be explained by this video. For one thing, it’s a big reason why the US government is so unaccountable to public opinion. These are *college students.* A significant amount of the country is totally checked out and comfortable enough not to think it matters.

Is it enough that Mayor Mamdani recorded a video detailing how Ireland's own anti-colonial history is a foundation for a larger emancipatory worldview where people's right to self-determination and not subjugation is the highest form of expression? No! hellgatenyc.com/come-out-ye-bl…

Absolute definition of saying the quiet part out loud. Anyone confused by the meekness of European leaders in the face of this insane war – a war that is not in any way compatible with European interests – should consider the statement below.
Jonathon Shafi@Jonathon_Shafi

Secretary General Mark Rutte: "Nato is a platform for the United States to project power on the world stage." Exactly as anti-war critics have long argued, to a cacophony of insults and hostility from our opponents. Good to have it rubber stamped.

“Why on earth would Israel bomb a school intentionally?” is the question of our era, and I am glad you are curious.
Daniella Greenbaum Davis@DGreenbaum

@camkasky Cameron, on the off chance that a school for young girls was actually bombed - obviously the most likely reason would be an error. Why on earth would they bomb a school intentionally? how would that help their goals?

Wrote for @theintercept about how the case for the war against Iran is barely even coherent, with the Trump administration still searching for a reason to galvanize the American public behind a war to cement Israel's military hegemony.theintercept.com/2026/02/28/us-…

The NYT ran two puff pieces on this with minimal skepticism and completely misleading headlines. And it was total horseshit. Being an “AI” debbie downer is not the majority posture in our media technologyreview.com/2026/02/06/113…

just 2 wks ago we had an entire slack-jawed media news cycle (complete with credulous write-ups in NYT, NPR, Vox) boosting the Moltbook “AI creates its own religion/plotting revolution” story that turned out to be 100% fake. I assure you the problem is not excessive AI skepticism
Derek Thompson@DKThomp

There are still a lot of journalists and commentators that I follow who think AI is nothing of much significance—still just a mildly fancy auto complete machine that hallucinates half the time and can’t even think. If you’re in that category: What is something I could write, or show with my reporting and work, that might make you change your mind?
