Daily News Corrects JR Smith’s “Fool[ish]” Slavery/Black Friday Post… Incorrectly

By Evan Derkacz

…he 80s with more positive connotations (though the annual death and injury toll may take a bite out of the PR, if not the bottom line). J.R. Smith has his demons…and he’s certainly made his share of mistakes — from suspensions for weed, elbowing other players, and untying the shoelaces of opponents, to petulantly refusing to shoot, taking bad shots, and mucking up team chemistry. But calling a man stupid for believing what sounds to me like a whol…

The Story of a Post-Holocaust Group Seeking Revenge Against Nazis is Part of the Story of Israel Itself

By Shane Burley

…for two millennia, this is Kidush Hashem,” wrote Kahane, suggesting Jewish freedom comes primarily from the humiliation enacted on non-Jews. The growth of Kahanism and congruent far-right theologies in the Settlements has created a culture of performative revenge through “paycheck attacks” against Arabs, which is supposed to raise the cost of living for Arabs in a land that Jewish militants believe was given to them by God. Figures like Chabad-Lub…

Comparing Gender Transition and Surrogacy to War and Human Trafficking, Vatican’s ‘Dignitas Infinita’ is an Intellectually Embarrassing and Harmful Mess

…nged on the individual level when due regard is not had for values such as freedom…physical and mental integrity, the right to essential goods, to life.” And I would add, to death, sending the section on Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide back for a complete rewrite based on human experience. For example, calling suffering “an opportunity to strengthen the bonds of mutual belonging…” is ahistorical and inexcusable. Tell a hospice nurse that their pat…

Meet the ‘Bronze Age Zionists’ — Far-Right Jews Embracing Fascism in the Wake of October 7

By Ben Lorber

…channel the id of Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza as its terrible death toll continues to rise. Right-wing Israeli and American Jewish right-wing leaders eschew 4chan for a larger political stage—but they too seek alliances with White Christian nationalist leaders, denigrate liberal Jews, and celebrate an ethos of muscular Judaism. They have no need for a niche internet subculture, because they possess a state apparatus, and aligned institution…

The Tyranny of Politeness

By Daniel C. Maguire

…Medicaid expansion. The result? Harvard and CUNY researchers say the death toll from 25-state ‘opt-out’ may be as high as 17,100 annually; hundreds of thousands more will be harmed by depression, untreated diabetes, and skipping mammograms and pap smears. Who were the victims of these Republicans? Fast food workers, nursing aides, restaurant servers, child-care workers, and the hospitals that serve the poor, especially the black and hispanic poor….

By Christopher Douglas

…he novel—named Philip Roth —describes the new social order as it takes its toll on his family and his Jewish neighborhood in Newark. The Lindbergh administration adopts a kind of liberal fascism, with programs to make Jews into “better Americans” by relocating families out of their neighborhoods and into rural communities “where parents and children can enrich their Americanness over the generations.” Life becomes increasingly unbearable for Ameri…

Refusing the Monsters on Maple Street: A First-Person Commentary from the Mass Hysteria at JFK

By Marion Grau

…s, the discourse of a “War on Terror” typically neglects the psychological toll that accompanies every war: the post-traumatic stress that seizes up in societies that are chronically beset—either by war and terrorist violence, or by state counter-insurgency, domestic security, and counter-terrorism programming. If terrorism is geopolitical, it’s because it damages psyches as much as bodies. In emphasizing the geopolitical aspect of its “War on Ter…

…e were killed and 874 injured, the country’s health ministry said, but the toll looked certain to rise as unrest spread from Cairo to other parts of the country. –NBC News, August 14, 10:46 AM EDT It’s hard to get a handle on what’s happening in Egypt, but my sense is that all of this is deeply political in nature and intent. This is more than just a massacre, it’s a strategic massacre. By cracking down so violently and indiscriminately on the Mus…

How Sikhs Handle Hate

…ng, occupied a major highway, and expressed Sikh sovereignty by collecting toll taxes from travelers. Although Bota Singh and Garja Singh were eventually arrested and executed by the state, their legacy is a thriving community of over 25 million Sikhs throughout the world. Just as the 1963 bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church could not suppress the American Civil Rights Movement or, later on, Bill Baxley’s pursuit of justice, the attack on th…

The Many, Not the Few: An Anthem for Occupy

By Elizabeth Drescher

…orce of which he balanced against a core commitment to what he calls “true freedom,” an idea of radical nonattachment to particular belief systems through a rigorous, regular questioning of, well, everything—perhaps especially what is spinning in your mind in charged moments like the one in which Makana had found himself that evening in Waikiki. “I found it odd,” he says, “that I was afraid to [sing “We Are the Many”] at first. I found it disturbi…
